You are missing my point! And what you think is torture and what I think is torture is two completely different things. BA have fulfilled there obligation in this situation but clearly the OP wants/expects more hence the thread. Yes it's a bloody inconvenience having to sit on an aircraft but the OP was in F and he has got 600 quid back plus a chunk of Avios and still got to his destination on another aircraft so I am sorry but that is not the end of the world however you think it would be "torture" People love playing the compensation card as soon as things go wrong and it drives me mad! On a flight back from St Lucia in June the aircraft went tech and Mrs P and I got delayed for about not far off 5 hours and looking back not once did the word "Compensation" enter my partners or my mind.
