Hello, newbie here so please bear with me!

I flew from NYC to London, my flight out from NY was delayed by 24 hours and when we finally made it to London the next day my Virgin flight from London to Manchester was canceled. This was in December 2010 due to weather. No alternative transportation was offered. Husband and I made our way from London to Manchester via tube and train - which cost us an extra couple of hundred quid in tickets.

My query is, Virgin have (just) refunded the money for our flights, but are they also required to pay for the extra costs we laid out because no alternative transport was offered? Basically is there a basis for a claim to refund the money we spent on train tickets?
