Virtualization Frontier

Fun with Travel, Thanks to Ike

Posted by Todd Muirhead on Sep 14, 2008 6:21:07 PM

 

I am scheduled to leave Austin tomorrow and fly through Houston on my way to Las Vegas.  As of right now - My flight has not been canceled, but the Houston airport has been closed since Friday due to hurricane Ike.  The Houston airport is reopening tomorrow, and hopefully my flight will depart Houston for Las Vegas as scheduled. 

 

 

The alternatives are not very good.  I can cancel my flight with full refund and rebook on another airline through another connecting city, but the cost of the new ticket would be at least 3 times what my flight is currently.  So I think I'm going to re-evaluate very early in the morning.  I hope that I don't end up traveling all day.

I am in South Louisiana and was severely impacted by both hurricanes.  Any idea if I can cancel my conference access and get a full refund?

My minor travel problems are nothing compared to what many along the coast are going through.  I haven't heard if VMware is going to allow any kind of refund for those seriously impacted by Ike.  It seems like a good idea to me, but the best thing to do would be to contact the VMworld folks directly.  I'm sorry to hear about the problems that the hurricane have caused for you.
