That is why it s essential to stay in touch with your airline online (phoning is impossible) to moni


That s because the nation s air travel network is deeply tied to getting people santa fe vacation rentals to or from the Megalopolis which extends from Washington DC to Boston. And the megalopolis is essentially shut down to air and rail travel santa fe vacation rentals today through santa fe vacation rentals at least Wednesday.
If you are flying anywhere this week even if your itinerary santa fe vacation rentals does not have you anywhere near the Northeast, your flight could be affected due to the ripple effect of this storm. This means that the flight santa fe vacation rentals that you might be catching to fly from San Francisco to Chicago could be using a plane that is normally flying in from New York or Washington. And with Sandy bearing down on those airports and shutting them down it s likely that your plane won t be arriving in San Francisco. You might end up on a different type of aircraft. Your seat assignment could be different. You might have to fly earlier or later than expected.
That is why it s essential to stay in touch with your airline online (phoning is impossible) santa fe vacation rentals to monitor the situation. Other helpful resources are the flight delay maps at FlightStats or FlightAware .
I think the most important thing to remember during storms like this is that if your flight is cancelled, and you decide NOT TO TRAVEL AT ALL meaning you decline any re-accommodations or waivers offered, and just zap the whole trip, you are entitled to a full refund from the airline.
And that s what I suggest you do if you have plans to travel to the Megalopolis this week. Your flight has likely been cancelled, so just don t go,  give up your seat to someone who may really need it, take your refund and try again next week or next month.
Note: You are only entitled to a refund if you flight is cancelled not simply delayed.  Also, if you are stranded by this storm, airlines are not required by law to provide you with overnight accommodations. Many will try to help, but remember, there is no federal statute that requires them to pay for hotels during force majeure events like this.
Based on the severity and duration of this storm, I do not expect the air travel system to recover until this weekend, or early into next week. Currently, it appears that Washington DC, Baltimore and Philadelphia are going to get the brunt of this storm. New York is going to get walloped, too low lying La Guardia is especially susceptible santa fe vacation rentals to damage from a storm surge. Boston is still open this morning and might just get sideswiped.
Luckily, we are not in a peak travel period, so it will be somewhat easier for airlines to re-accommodate santa fe vacation rentals stranded travelers on flights that are not sold out. However, airlines have cut back on capacity so much in recent years, that empty seats are few and far between, so it s going to take a while.
For a limited period, San Francisco passengers will have the opportunity to experience spacious luxury onboard the world s largest commercial aircraft, the  Airbus A380 on flights to Asia.   Between December 28, 2012 and March 24, 2013,  Singapore Airlines  will pop into town with daily "Pop-Up" A380 flights between San Francisco and Singapore via Hong Kong.  Flip through santa fe vacation rentals this slideshow  to see its famous Suites and the widest Business Class seats in the sky.
SQ1 departs SFO at 10:50 pm and arrives in Hong Kong at 5:50 am two days later. Flight time is about 13 hours to Hong Kong, and with another 3.5 hours to Singapore, you ll have plenty of time to soak up the luxury and explore the 1000+ onboard entertainment options.  SQ2 arrives daily in SFO at 7:45 pm on the same day it departs from Singapore and Hong Kong.
