Update
Earlier today I was contacted by phone by Orbitz. Yesterday I had filed a complaint with the U.S. Better Business Bureau and Orbitz was contacted by them immediately. I am impressed with how easy it was to file online and how fast it worked. When Orbitz called me (the first time they actually contacted me other than by e-mail) they had seen the complaint and drafted a response. I will get a full ticket refund plus $250. At my request they will credit my card rather than give me that in a travel voucher with them. Not all I wanted but fighting for more will not be worth the headache. I am sick of this. They probably know that. Time to move forward and reschedule/re-book my trip.
Thank you all for the responses. Of course I will be back posting here if none of this materializes.
