Not in a business transaction.

If you don't deliver the services, you dint get paid
It's not exactly black and white. You're not paying for the meal exactly.

Of course it's part of what you're paying for.

Much more see than say, the heating.

Your claim that it was public info is open for discussion. Just because she's tamei doesn't mean that the whole neighborhood knew about it! It still could have been discreet as much as it could be.
Secondly when moshiach comes we'll be back to the status of adom harishon kodem hachate, and since niddus is part of chava's punishment, it wont be here when moshiach comes.
Tumah and taharastatus will primarily be nogeya for taharos. Her husband is a secondary concern. So it's not such a private affair anyway.

The big difference is that they are claiming to offer kosher meals and a passenger may have chosen to fly with this airline on that basis as I sometimes have. They make no claim of having lobster available on each flight.

And if they agree to and don't deliver you have a valid complaint.

Not getting what you paid for is not a small complaint, especially when you paid for a premium experience. They weren't whining unjustly, all they wanted was fair compensation for what they didn't receive. Idk but maybe Catholics would ask for compensation because the FA didn't smile at them long enough.

One thing is guaranteed. If you turn the tables around, like having to change your ticket on an overbooked flight, the airline would make you pay every penny of the huge cancellation fee. No mercy the other way around.

I am not saying it isn't a valid complaint. Just that a sincere apology should be enough in some cases instead of always wanting a pound of flesh.

Airlines have shown mercy to me and my family on numerous occasions.

Copy and paste isn't a sincere apology.

Do you think it would have mattered if it wasn't a copy and paste?

I know that the truly apologetic FA's on my last international flight who went above and beyond to get me something to eat made me not call for comp.

ETA. And a touch of procrastination
