CLARENCE, N.Y. (WIVB) - A Springville man was supposed to be on Continental flight 3407 but did not board the flight because of a delay with a connecting flight. 

Dave of Springville and three of his business associates were all booked on flight 3407.  Dave is a frequent flyer and says his flight out of New Orleans was delayed and caused them to miss their connection in Newark.  He spoke to his wife over the phone to tell her he’s ok.
