My Flight is Overbooked. Ask me Anything.

Last Thanksgiving my son received $1,200 cash from American at Charlotte Intl; he was promptly re-routed and actually got to our destination before I did (we left from different cities).

I paid for his ticket and to be kind, I only asked him for $1,000 back from his winnings. He argued that it was all his for the "ordeal." I say it is 100% mine plus interest and only a millennial would argue something so ludicrous. The only valid point you could make is that American Airlines gives the money to the passenger not the buyer of the ticket.

Who is right?

Who was inconvenienced? There's your answer dbag.

He didn’t get cash from American. If you can prove that he did, I’ll give the same amount to a charity of your choice.

He got a check and had to go to the airport in Columbia, SC to get it.
