They didn't offer anyone tickets or cash just picked 3 random people (lied about how we were picked) and no apologies.

While I understand that this is a very unfortunate situation I can't believe that there was never a single announcement for volunteers.

Also there would have been a very large compensation and alternative flights for those IDB.

But not hearing from the horses mouth makes me skeptical about the alligations.
