Hello everybody!

It's the first time in my life that I join into a group like this =D
I really hope that you guys can help me.

Well, I am in a difficult situation, my uncle is retired from AA in US, I asked to my uncle if he could arrange a buddy pass to my mother (his sister) to come visit me in Montreal (where I live now), but I discover on the internet that last year that AA changed the policy and now retired and employees can travel for free as well as some relatives, example father/mother/sister/brother... and they have 9 buddy passes per year.

So I asked about that to my uncle before she travels, but he just ignored that information (he never give an answer) and charged us for the flight by giving her buddy passes (3D). I would pay without questioning the amount, but it seems quite over charged. In 2010, I made the same flights and paid 250 us d, also provide by him, but now he is asking 750.

She flew on March/2015 from Rio de Janeiro (GIG) to Miami (MIA) and then from Miami (MIA) to Montreal (YUL) and when she returned, on month later, she went to the same airports.

So can you help me guys to know if this is correct? I don't know, but sometimes the people nowadays make me really sad, are there no incorruptible people anymore? Or the things changed so much that sisters are not relatives anymore... Anyway, as I said, I will pay, but at least I want to know if I am paying the right amount or he is getting a profit of it.

We asked him by email, but again, he ignored.

Thanks a lot and a happy day for every one =)
