Exactly. I rebooked myself quickly yesterday because it was obvious to me that cancellations odds were high re: Newark. - ty97 Aug 23, 10:53
In the end they cancelled the flight so those people are up $1k and everyone's equally stranded. -- nm - Krusty Aug 23, 10:30 14
- If it's the same as the $600 we got for bumping us, it was in the form of a $600 credit that had to be used within 90 days. - JaxSean Aug 23, 10:42 4
  - 90 days? What airline is this? Usually the credits are good for a year in my experience. -- nm - ty97 Aug 23, 10:54 2
    - It was Frontier, so I'm sure ymmv -- nm - JaxSean Aug 23, 10:59 1
      - ahh, okay. That major airlines give you a year I think. Don't think I'd take a 90 day -- nm - ty97 Aug 23, 11:01
  - Ah. Well, I'll have to keep that in mind if it ever happens to me. Cash or they can get lost. -- nm - Beryllium Aug 23, 10:45
- Right, but the $1000 people also had the benefit of not being dicked around for seven hours. Must be nice. -- nm - Beryllium Aug 23, 10:36 8
  - Yup. They either got other flights or were relaxing in a hotel room while those people got dicked around. -- nm - Krusty Aug 23, 10:40
  - Video of the customer service line -- (link) - Beryllium Aug 23, 10:39 6
    - that almost triggered an anxiety attack, thx -- nm - mud Aug 23, 11:09
    - There was a woman trying to get from EWR to DEN yesterday that was on the tarmac so long that they didn't have enough fuel anymore - ty97 Aug 23, 10:56
    - Rebook yourselves in the app people, why are you in that line?! -- nm - ty97 Aug 23, 10:55
    - I am pretty sure any person who can work an airline's customer service desk should be at least considered for sainthood. -- nm - JaxSean Aug 23, 10:47 1
      - It has to be a very tough job. AND they are understaffed lately too which makes it that much worse -- nm - ty97 Aug 23, 10:57
    - *smh* -- nm - Krusty Aug 23, 10:41
