Sorry for your loss

It seems Airlines do somewhat give a crap..

I was booked for a cruise out of Miami to Nassau a few weeks ago when a big blizzard hit the Northeast, My flight to Miami was cancelled the day before the cruise sailed.

Called the cruise company....to cancel, they basically said tough luck... they refunded the taxes and fees and kept the money for the cruise I scheduled, even though I mentioned I wanted to reschedule the cruise on another date..

OK I am out $500 ( it was just a 3 day cruise)

The airline (delta) and the hotel I booked (Marriot), both refunded my money and were more than helpful in that regard. Delta would seem the most obvious to step up since they preemptively cancelled.

Marriot was good, perhaps because I am a"gold" points member

I rebooked on another cruise line, two weeks later, Delta was good. Marriot was good

When we got to the airport... my gf asked me if she needed her passport.....

Maybe this should be in a worst date thread??
