'duty of care' question at point of departure of trip
So, I should have been on BA57 on Sunday night, which was cancelled because of the weather (and while I am in the group who think that BA's/HAL's handling of the weather was the real cause of the cock-up, I'm not even thinking about trying to claim compensation for it). I got the text advising of the cancellation just as I drove onto the T5 spur road from the M25, so wasted 2.5 hours of my Sunday evening driving to/from LHR, and also put 140 unnecessary miles on my car.
I just drove home again, so no hotel bill/accomodation/taxis necessary for BA to fulfil their 'duty of care'. Can I claim the mileage?
