A couple of years ago I had part of a tooth break off whilst eating an AA bowl of nuts, it didn't cross my mind to seek compensation. I just went to the dentist and had it fixed.
The world is becoming a strange place now when the first thing people think about is compensation. Why cant an accident sometimes be just that, an accident
This is clearly the fault of the airline as the OP has stated it was the chickpea that caused it to happen.
Whilst you may think the world is becoming a strange place, what do you think is the cause for such factors. If you were to look at the UK alone, we have the highest level of social poverty in generations. It's good to know you are efficient and can afford to pay for dental treatment. Public (NHS) dental cover is sadly not free for all and in this case, will probably fall under band 2 cover and alone cost £56.30. Large corporations such as BA abuse their position of power to take advantage of the needed. High costs poor service. So why shouldn't they be milked for every penny they have?
