Long story short, last month my daughter and I were on vacation in the Midwest and coming home was a nightmare! Our trip home took 4 air flights. The weather caused our 1st flight to be somewhat delayed and the nightmare happened when we finally got to a major airport and there was no wheelchair waiting for me as prearranged!!!
I frantically asked for one as we had precious minutes to spare to catch the next flight to the west coast.... Had to wait 15 min. for a w/c and when we finally got to our gate, they had just closed the door even tho the plane was still on the ground. Well, that set up a domino affect.... we had to wait 4 hours to catch the next flight which in turn made us miss our last plane home.. there were no more flights to our small airport that night!
Well, I was exhausted beyond belief and my husband had to take off work to drive 2 hours to pick us up and another 2 hrs. to get home. I was told by ticket agents that I would not get reimbursed for that last flight that we missed
So, I wrote and filed a nasty complaint to the major airline company and just heard back that they will reimburse me for that last segment plus gave us $200 vouchers for our next trip!
Just relaying this in case any of you ever find yourselves in this situation. STICK UP FOR YOUR RIGHTS!!
