Playing the air travel lottery

My plan was to work most of today and then fly to San Jose tonight for meetings tomorrow. This is usually a great plan, but the weather has messed things up pretty well. Why risk my meetings by scheduling stuff so close together? With the amount tof work I'm trying to get done, there's really no time to do anything else.

So the trick is to play the margin. If you go west late, you risk the first few meetings the next day (assuming one can get to Chicago). Going east is a lot harder - I can't do redeye flights, so I'm stuck with the early morning stuff.

So here I sit in the Burlington airport, waiting to see what my luck will be today...
