does he have any recourse for his expenses?
he prepaid the hotel, ski lift tickets and rental. I think it was a package deal.
The airlines are obliged to check travel documents (passports, etc.) but certainly do not check criminal records. I can't see him having any recourse through the airline or travel agent.

the trip was purchased on a citi bank AAdvantage american express card. would that offer him any protection?
He'd have to check the policies, but I doubt it.
