Thankfully, one piece of luggage (Gabi's little suitcase) hadn't made it when we arrived in December. As a result, we had a phone number in the system, so American Airlines called us to let us know that the flight from Toledo to Chicago was cancelled due to the frigid weather, and wondering if we would want to leave many hours later and fly from Detroit. Shorter travel time? Yes! We were switched to a Delta flight and left in the afternoon, making the connection to Malaysia Airlines in Paris.
We had quite a bit of a problem getting the boarding passes in Paris, as the gate agent was not very sure of what to do with our ticket since it had been changed, but only on the first leg. After a long hour of sitting in a tiny waiting area, we finally were allowed through just as the plane was boarding. All in all, it didn't end up being too bad, but we were thankful for the notification that the flight had been cancelled and American Eagle's agent being proactive in booking us on a different flight.
