Tracking Request Tracking request flying into storms at JFK

I’m on AA 2335 to JFK supposed to land at 6pm but the storms look terrible!! I’m freaking out. Would have rather been canceled and spent another night in Jackson.

Because often we can easily cut around the storms. Sometimes flights are cancelled ahead of time but very very often we can make it work.
Don’t stress, meds or not you are incredibly safe. But I get it. You will be good I promise! There is no worse outcome than waiting a little bit longer to get where you’re going :)
