Re: American cancels hundreds of flights
Unlike other airline cancellations this is reported as a series of safety inspections on the MD-80 related to checking wiring in the wheel wells. Some of the other cancellations we have heard of are due to the airline going bankrupt.

In this case I suspect (hope!) that American will be able to complete their checks over the next week, and that most travel for the Championships will be unaffected.

I hope so as I am booked to fly on an American MD-80 on the Dallas-Atlanta leg of my trip.
