Jim I would love to take them to a small claims but I don't have much confidence in the legal system here. Have you ever been to Argentina?
Plus I'm not sure how much energy I have left to keep on fighting. I should have been back in England since the 5th and enjoying the sites of Dublin, Rome, Edinburgh, London, Stratford, not to mention the almighty Newcastle.
I would love to take Delta to court and believe that I could take them to the cleaners since they are now shouldering the blame but I need the money for the refund to pay for a new ticket for her. As things stand I'm still flying home with Delta which makes me sick just thinking about it! But what I'm trying to come up with is the cheapest possible option to get her to Manchester on Christmas Eve where she can stay in a hotel for the night and then be picked up by myself and my bro on Christmas morning before driving back to Newcastle (thanks so much Delta for making this the most inconvenient Christmas ever). Iberia would have been a good option but I notice that the carrier from Heathrow to Manchester is BA so that's that one out the window! I checked out Lufthansa and I think this is about my best option as some of the others are ridiculous. I'm still paying more as it is Christmas time and I can again thank Delta for putting even greater holes in my pockets. And I dread to think how much an airport hotel will cost me on Christmas Eve!
I would love to take them to court Jim, but I need the money now. Otherwise, nothing would give me greater pleasure than to wipe the floor with the lying scumbags.
