Any time I dispute a charge I have to represent the reason for this dispute. I don't see what you could legitimately state in this case that would be a valid reason for disputing the charge.

A reasonable person would not expect that by picking Flight X and paying its fare, the airline could still operate Flight X but push you onto another flight without some sort of compensation.
I completely agree that there should be compensation - as the passenger was told in the first place. I don't think there's any debate about that at all.

But the argument you're making implies that if your flight is delayed, or you don't get your choice of meal, or any other deviation from a perfect flight, you should resort to a credit card dispute. That's bad advice IMHO.

Maybe the executive office keeps track of these types of employees, and perhaps by Jeff's next video shoot he'll talk about his 80,000 co-workers, 75,000 of whom are the FINEST people in the business.
You have impressive stamina when it comes to crowing about that topic. Keep it up - it's one of the things that keeps us all going here
