Apparently they canceled my flight to Pittsburgh some time after I checked it yesterday and before I showed up at the airport. And the only alternative, a flight from JFK to Pittsburgh is sold out for obvious reasons.

Now I have to talk to these people and somehow fly somewhere else. This is stupid.

Flying sucks nowadays. They didn't even send you a notice?

Nope. And apparently JetBlue doesn't fly to either Atlanta or Columbus so I have absolutely no clue how I am getting to this wedding now.

US Airways will get you there for $135 with one stop.

Edit:
Seems like it actually costs the same to get to Atlanta from Boston by bus but will take a whole day.

Thanks, dear. Originally my mom wanted me to take a bus but I convinced her that it was approximately the same price to fly, which is sad but true.

So I talked to some woman in Salt Lake City, Utah (I don't know why the automated recording announced this fact but whatever). A dog barked in the background while I was talking to her, which is quite strange. Do they work out of their homes?

Apparently the flight from JFK to Pittsburgh was not sold out and had 8 seats available, but the flight to JFK is leaving at 6 and it's almost 5 and I'm sitting in my apartment because the one guy at the JetBlue counter who speaks both English and Spanish told me that it was sold out and I couldn't get to Pittsburgh until tomorrow.

Also they don't allow you to fly somewhere else than your original destination, and you can't use a different airline either.

So I got a refund and we'll see what happens.

Because all phone workers are in India unless indicated otherwise.
