No dice. Need to make new reservation per LX. Gonna try UA and if I have time I will HUCA.

Am i also entitled to EU or Israeli comp? Arriving 12 hours after originally scheduled Before they reaccomodated on UA direct, first leg was rebooked as JFK-KEF-ZRH adding an extra stop that left an hour earlier and arrived 2 hours later in ZRH.
What about cancelling this reservation for a $5,924 travel voucher (minus fees if any)?

I think you need to forget about what happened before recommendation. How long after is it with the flight that you're actually taking?

What does travel voucher do for me? I need to get there.

Arriving in TLV 12+ hours after originally scheduled 3:25am vs 4:20pm.

Unless the flight is currently sold out, you can possibly book a new RT flight using a travel voucher to cover most of payment.

Again, no idea if such a thing would work, just thinking creatively  :)

True. Can also cancel. Book with UA on UA/LX which is available now for 85k with 1:15 layover and get there 2 hours earlier  ;D

I got comp of $50 aa vouchers for a few different family members flights.
Can I combine them all to use on the same reservation? And what are they worth if I were to sell them?

Delayed baggage (6+ hr) on swiss
EWR-ZRH in J operated by UA
ZHR-TLV in Y operated by LX

Booked with CSR so $100 per day

Now how much do I get from swiss? Online it says
$100 for economy and $200 for biz baggage? Which do I qualify for? And can I get more than that?
Baggage was delayed in EWR and sent direct to TLV on UA84

Don't need anything, but would like to maximize the comp.. any ideas what to buy?

CSR insurance requires a statement from the airline either approving or denying your reimbursement claim. So officially can't double dip.

bump?
Still didn't receive my bag.
It's been 36+ hr

I'd like to buy a new suit and shoes.
 Would Swiss refund? Tired contacting them they keep saying file online, but online it's says they only comp $100 :o

Asked for Polaris bedding and PJs on UA 90 three times. Never received it. Should I even bother?
