the only way to answer that would be to check their website on updated flights, but last i heard on the news was that they will begin flights again in a day or so, but there will just be some delays

I bet there will be! they are offering refund waiver for Friday also; if you really gotta be where you're going, I would strongly suggest making alternate plans!

I just changed a flight that was canceled for tomorrow and after over an hour on hold with AA, they initially offered to change my flight to an early morning flight on Friday. When I asked about the plane, I learned that it was also an MD80. Apparently, their reservations reps don't think their Friday flights will be canceled. However, when I expressed concern about changing to another flight with an MD80, she said something like "good point" and offered another alternative on a plane that's not an MD80. What I read is that there are 300 MD80s that were grounded on Tuesday. 30 of these were placed back in service today. I seriously doubt they will have all these back up by Friday. So, if I were you, I would try to change the flight or buy another ticket (fully refundable) with another airlines in case your flight gets canceled and you can't fight a new flight. Or....you can just wait it out and hope for the best. Good luck.

I would expect that their planes would all be operating at full strength sometime next week. My recommendation is to find out what type of aircraft you are flying. Your flight might not even be affected.
