I was just wondering if anyone here has been affected by the volcano? Anyone not going to Europe now, or some other location, because of the flight restrictions?

I'm hoping the air clears during the next couple of weeks. I have two tickets to Austria and back, plus pre-paid, non-refundable hotel accommodations for 17 days.
I heard that John Cleese was in Northern Europe somewhere and had a contractual enagement in southern France. All the trains were booked, and there were no flights. He took a cab.

I'm in hotel in Atlanta for conference I've set up. Have had some presenters from Europe cancel. But that's not the worst of it. Hotel is now busting at seams with hundreds of Army Grunts who can't get flights out to Europe. And, as I'm an Air Force puke, they're giving me grief about it.
Funny what one little volcano can do.

The European airlines are losing money like crazy. Several different airlines, Lufthansa, KLM, Air France, sent up some test flights and showed no damage. Those are the ones getting reported on the evening news. However, on one newscast, it showed a jet from a Finnish airline that had suffered major damage.
