But yes, it's otherwise over to CEDR, I'm sure you will keep us posted since strangely though we get many CEDR reports on delays (etc), we get relatively reports on Mennens.
Well, BA didn't even pay the fare difference between the BA F ticket and the DL PE they eventually rebooked her on as they claimed extraordinary circumstances due to the "odour event". So CEDR it has to be I guess with a 30% calculation for the CDG-LHR leg and 75% for the LHR-SEA leg, or should she just ask for 75% of the cost for the entire inbound half of the return ticket CDG-(LHR)-SEA as she was rebooked CDG-SEA?
