no, Kenny R. He was actually the medic that treated the patient till they landed.

BTW the plane is now enroute to EWR, B"H.
Uh. How is Kenny silent?

Seems like they were both onboard actually.

that's a great news story how the owner of an airline who happens to be a medic is the one to provide medical services on a flight that gets diverted

Definitely deserves publicity. This PR isn't something you can't order or plan for, and is priceless.

...those funds must be used by the ticketed passenger within 1 year.

the ability to refund a ticket to a voucher, which can be used by anyone for flights

Are the new vouchers transferable?

Yup.
Now let's see if AMEX/Chase will support it...

ask them if it can be an option to add to the ticket within 24hrs of ticketing on elal.com  would be a great bypass

I highly doubt Amex will support it. They only support moving backwards...


On that note, did anyone manage to reach a real TA at Amex Plat Travel recently? Or only Expedia DROPRs?

Was booked UA 90 so they rebooked me on LY 28. But since it's within 24 hrs I can't select online kosher meal is there any way to get kosher meal? By messaging them?
