Faith restored, and with CX pulling F from HKG-AKL am just about to book BA F to SYD for next year.

Do you go back to Amex and ask for the £100 booze bill shortfall?

If you had travel insurance -for example from Amex-such as an Annual Select policy-isnt there an additional potential claim on that policy for travel delay-based upon a delay, say of 72 hours, i.e. around £230 per pax-total for 2-£460?

If the two aspects of cover are available -say another £560 in aggregate?

I wonder if the policy benefit is assignable-presumably so-absent any contractual bar in the respective policies?
