I can't tell if you're being sarcastic or not.

The three previous IDB case discussed around here, involved:
  • Someone who didn't even miss their flight
  • A couple who were delayed but only by ~12 hours and well compensated for it
  • A family who didn't even go to the airport to try and argue their case

From my perspective, this current story elicits the most sympathy of all from me. Other than some poor planning (tight connection, and not buying a seat assignment in advance), it sounds like this woman did most things right, and suffered some significant consequences.
