Anyone on TTOL still trying to get a flight out? Are there going to be any more flights after today, does anyone know? Delta was supposed to be running a couple more flights, but have no idea if they are still going.

I have found FlightAware to be a very good source of information, often better than the airline's own site. I found out my PHL to SXM flight was delayed 3 hours on FlightAware well before Delta posted it and 2 hours before a gate agent in PHL knew it.

There are a handful of owners and one renter that I’m aware of that are staying put where my condo is. I wish them luck! Many older and I’m concerned but they seem to be happy there and not coming home to family and possibly bringing it home. Many of the college AUC students headed back ASAP - once the notice came out last Saturday.

Flightaware has actual loaded flight plans. These flight plans re for instrument flight plans which all airline flights are. They tell ATC to expect them. They activate the plan once they are ready to go in the cockpit and get their actual clearance to go. Sometimes the flight can be cancelled after the flight plan is loaded. Typically a flight-lan expires two hours after scheduled departure unless the pilot/airline calls/uploads delayed departure time.

So if a plan looks 2 hours old +, it usually means they haven’t communicated the delay.

West Jet then that's it . Partically most of the tourist will be gone back home. We just have two Familes here that will own their own homes , one in the Orient and the other one in Cupecoy.

This from a neighbor who tells me he is leaving Tuesday. SXM - ATL

Delta only airline flying this week. Tuesday sold out. May fly thru3/31 depending on demand. Go to pjia website for pdf of scheduled flights. Then you have to call reservations because airline websites don’t show these recovery flights.
