We are flying delta during this timeframe and my trip still looks the same. Every day brings a new thing to think about while traveling.

Are you flying within the US or to Europe? Looks like the impact will be within the US and South America but no cancellations to Europe at this point. I wondered if the Schiphol mess would mean some flight cancellations.

"From July 1-Aug. 7, we’ll reduce service by approximately 100 daily departures, primarily in markets in the U.S. and Latin America that Delta frequently serves."

What is the “Amsterdam mess”? What’s going on at Schiphol?

@ Continental - Schiphol has been having shutdowns due to staffing issues and the place is a mess. They just announced today that KLM is not selling tickets for weekends so they can catchup with people that have been bumped. (And now can't find the article on that, sorry)

I've had my flight to Stockholm cancelled by United. It's not only Delta..... I checked on their website and saw my outbound flights had "disappeared". 10 hours on hold later, I reached someone who could reschedule me.
CHECK YOUR FLIGHTS FREQUENTLY!
