hey spackler! airport question: missed flight and rebooking Archived Message Posted by Nobster on March 7, 2025, 7:23:33 howdy...i know carl hasn't been posting much. any of you other non-avg duecers (those of us who don't fly private) have tips on handling a missed flight. my daughter is heading to newark airport and is likely to miss her 9 am to dtw. she's flying spirit and the next flight is tomorrow. they don't have reciprocal/partnership with other airlines. she could book a 1-way and eat the $ rebook and find a hotel - $$ any other options?

There are also LGA flights tonight* - gvibes March 7, 2025, 9:27:27 Presumably the conversation at the ticket counter has already happened or not - complainant March 7, 2025, 10:39:26 Spirit may charge her even if she takes the flight tomorrow* - Carl Spackler March 7, 2025, 8:20:55 I've never flown Spirit but if she books one way, may sure her original return isn't cxl* - Chilango March 7, 2025, 7:44:34 Two more flights tonight, and Spirit is cheap when you buy at the ticket counter - complainant March 7, 2025, 7:42:45 There's a connecting EWR-FLL-DFW leaving at 2:10pm, arriving 8:40 - complainant March 7, 2025, 7:47:57 Too bad she is going to DTW* - Dilbert March 7, 2025, 9:09:33 Even better. - complainant March 7, 2025, 10:28:23 In think that’s basically the choice unless it’s the airline’s fault for the missed flight - ATL March 7, 2025, 7:32:04 correct. she missed a train to the plane.* - Nobster March 7, 2025, 7:39:02 People train runs out of Stubbville * - jdl March 7, 2025, 13:03:49   Searching
