Flight Delayed? Keep Checking Those Monitors

Passengers are well advised to keep their eyes on airport monitors when an airline says a flight is delayed.  A frequent and disturbing trend has been happening with Jet Blue and other airlines in airports like Dulles and New York Kennedy where the airline says a flight is delayed.  It happened last month.  While settling down for a meal, waiting for a 100 minute delay from JFK to Dulles, suddenly, Jet Blue changed the gate, made one announcement near the old gate and advised passengers that the flight is "departing on time" from a different gate.  A savvy and experienced traveler caught the lightning change and dropped the pizza and dashed to the gate and she was among the last to board.  Not sure why Jet Blue would throw such curve balls to their passengers, and there was hardly any explanation.  So don't take their word for it...verify.
