Endure Hell or give up my money to Airline
I'm so miserable. I'm a 49 year old man who was to go to the USA in December for my 50th birthday party. We are a diverse group, gay, straight, black, Asian, and so on and so on etc. So, as Fascism becomes the norm in the US, my friends have all bailed on me. Can't blame them, it's not safe for any of us to travel there under the current monster. So now the airline, Play, my cheaper choice is taking advantage of my dire birthday plans. 1) it refuses to help 2) should I cancel, they want 100% of the base fares, plus all extra fees, for nothing. Not even a slight loss to airline, just pure profit, don't even need to fly me anywhere! 3) They will refund the APD element only, which of course they don't pay if I don't fly. Nope, they won't do a thing, they are happy for a 50 year old camp gay black man to enter New York City and face off with the TSA. The base fares are £13 to KEF and £81 to NYC and Play are determined to have the lot. All of this impending war for that plus their little extras shall we say. They are aware as I'm flying from the UK that the latest UK FCO advice has been downgraded to warn people of the rise of hatred of gays and coloured etc throwing people who talk about POTUS47 in a negative way can end up in detention centres or worse. I've stated this means I'm legally entitled to refund but hey, no dice with the people who are determined to drag me, alone, to fascist USA under the orange hand pumped yogurt rifle. Play want every penny of both fares. 100% percent of all extras are to be enjoyed by the airline. No matter what. I'm writing yo the FCO and the CAA and will be writing on every platform I can find. The very least I can do.
