Since IB canceled the flight and wrote that I should check at AGP for alternatives or call the Serviberia #, should I request that they refund the flight (€70 for two of us) and tell them we will be driving from AGP to MAD, or just forget about it? We've already flown the promo avios (MAD-MIA-MAD-DUS) last month.
