i was rebooked from AF to LH, 30 Min. before the flight & my name was on the KSML list on LH.

received as compensation a $100 voucher, valid on AF, KL, DL, the price of the ticket was $200, not a bad deal.

AA CLE-LGA Delayed over an hour due to overhead bin not opening and then not closing. Should I even bother? First time I have deplaned at LGA at a remote stand too.

100%, but don't expect to see a penny if it's past 7 days, get busy now.
 First go after the airline and then if you like call your cc you used to book the flight and see what they offer for damaged baggage.

Flew with BA and had my bags delayed for around 3 days. I filed with BA for out of pocket expenses. The ticket was booked with Chase Sapphire Reserve, which has baggage delay insurance, although secondary. Will they give me money as well. How do they know if I receieved compensation?

Via Twitter they kinda said that if you select "meal service" in the complaint you basically automatically get that reply, so they recommended selecting other, otherwise there is really no one to talk to
So it's been over a month with this one and still nothing, hopefully that means I won't be getting the generic response.

Part of the forms the credit card insurance will require will ask explicitly whether the airline has compensated you and they often ask for some evidence of your communications with the airline. So can you lie and collect twice? Probably. But I would have hope that no one would.

Only Chase asked me for those forms. Travel guard never asked

KLM J BUD-JFK Via AMS first segment was delayed so missed 2nd leg, was rebooked for next day.
Flight was booked with FB miles. Who should I contact? And what should I expect?
Thanks in advance.
Email i got today......

Your travel falls under the guidelines of European Union Regulation (EC) 261/2004 defining an airline's requirements when flight changes occur. KLM Flight 1974 on May 09th 2019 from Budapest to Amsterdam were delayed due Air traffic Control delays in Amsterdam.  After reviewing this claim, compensation (600 EUROS) is not due in accordance with the EU recommendation. However, as a gesture of apology, I’m sending a $50.00 USD Delta Choice gift to each of you. You will receive a Delta Choice gift code,



Anything to do?
