Airline Compensation Master Thread

[Moishebatchy]

You got the flights for free? I believe that is what you are saying about the 240K points still being in your account.  thats awesome!

Love when that happens! I had the some thing with a First Class ticket to TLV in the summer.  Was a whole delay etc...  but A FREE first class ticket was compensation enough.

Its happens a lot of times

TWO free tickets. Let's hope it sticks.

Yes, 2 years ago, in flight they offered me either 2K miles or €25 duty free voucher.
I didn't think of emailing and getting more.

Answer is unsatisfactory.  As you can see in this post,

I received the subpoena email and actually called the lawyer for AA !
He said that people were sending emails that looked like they were from AA
and asking for info then signing in and stealing points
AA was trying to figure out how these crooks got the lists of AA mileage account holders
so they subpoenaed gmail and gmail forwarded it to all the users with the lawyers private
phone line address etc... it was a harassment tactic!
He said all they asked for was some of google's search algorithms to find how the guys hacked it

So you see that the whole "subpoena" was one big fraud, and בכלל להד"מ.

So again, back to my question: Why no selling AA gift cards?
TIA

What do y'all think I can get? My seat cushion was loose on United and kept shifting the whole flight. FA wouldn't let me move to open seat which was premium economy.

You should emphasize in your letter that it was a huge inconvenience, but what really bothered you was the fact that it all could have been avoided if the FA allowed to move to premium economy which makes a lot of sense under the circumstances. Give it a shot and let us know what happens.

The rule was made before that post but after that thread was started
But if not another reason might be that AA actively looks for people selling miles so maybe we don't want to walk along the fence
