Anyone else get screwed on airfair, hotel, tickets, etc?

just the way it is

sucks

can't make the airlines pay for a natural disaster

now he can cancel a hotel unless he did advanced payment like a dumbass

Yeah in 2012 I got a hotel room in NOLA and tickets to the BCS National Championship game... fricked right in the arse.

He might want to check with his credit card company about their travel insurance policy. Also, a list was posted earlier in the week showing the policies for various airlines in these types of circumstances. I suspect it'll take some leg work, but he should be able to fix most if not all of this.

Delta gave me full value of my flight for future travel within the next year by calling and speaking to someone for 6 minutes.

Had a non-refundable room at the Courtyard, called them this morning and they refunded the charge on my CC. I used points for flight and cancelled them this morning with no problem.

I did last year for the Ark. snow storm 2K down the drain.

Every other LSU fan is happy to have a home game make up for the canceled game.

I got screwed on airfare.

fricking cancellation fee on American.

Here's an idea---keep your flight and hotel. Fly in, check in the hotel and watch
LSU kick their asses on tv. When the game is over, head out and find some folks that are in need of some help and spend the rest of the day with them. Then go back to your clean, comfortable hotel, cleanup and get some sleep in your nice dry bed. Fly home as scheduled. I promise you will think that's the best money you ever spent!
