I am in Northern Virginia – just a few miles from Dulles Airport. This past weekend we experience the second blizzard in 2 months plus we have had several other snow storms since early December 2009.
One thing I try to tell all of my clients is to ALWAYS call ahead to the airlines or check online to see about canceled flights. Especially with snow, it is always wiser and safer to check ahead of time to ensure that your flights are still going out. Don’t rush out to the airport to check, do it from the safety of your home or office. If there is a snow storm pending such as the one coming this Tuesday on top of the 32 inches we got this weekend, PLEASE make sure to call ahead or even if you can depart a day ahead of time or a day or two later. Almost always the airlines waive their change fees due to weather, so take advantage of that if you absolutely have to travel to try to leave before the storm if you can.
This also goes for Amtrak and bus services as well. Being ahead and safe will make your travel that much easier and less stressful.
