OT: Is FlyerTalk becoming a lawyer's office?

Back to the topic, just check if the new tickets are INVOL rerouting. I do not believe that this case qualify for any kind of compensation, not even the expenses as the alternative arrangement was not made by the airline.

People : you need to speak and ask upfront. If you are not happy, ask again! But you cannot complain that making your own business and get reimbursed and get compensation.
Sorry for the rant, but I see too many posters believe that airlines (AF, KL or others) are cash machines.
