Is it OK to repot a Phal that's started a flower spike or would that jeopardize the blooms?

If the spike is just starting, and you think it needs repotting, I would go ahead carefully. The plant should be fine as long as you are able to safeguard the spike itself. I've done this numerous times myself with no bad results.

Thank you. That's what I was thinking but I needed reassurance. I just realized I have neglected repotting a couple and it's pretty bad. Appreciate your input.

You should be fine repotting. Phals are wonderfully able to recover from things.
