Quite right, other companies are also guilty of this, however there is a difference. Generally, if you are seeking a refund of a product or service, the company may have to check the item has been returned in a satisfactory condition, etc. However, the reason you pay a fortune for these tickets is only because they are fully refundable, there is no difference in the product delivered. Therefore, airlines have a particularly responsibility to refund promptly.
