My local high school band is currently scheduled to perform in the Pacific Holiday Bowl. However, their flights were canceled out of Newark on Monday. Continental is not willing to make accommodations to get the group out there on time for their rehearsals. I understand that thousands of people are stranded.... but these kids have a commitment to attend... and have worked for 10 months to make this trip happen. It is very disappointing that a large company such as Continental isn't willing to add a flight to help these kids get to their destination. Instead... they are selling empty seats at a premium - and taking advantage of a bad situation.
