Ever had one of "those" weeks?
Need to be quick - am typing this from a rubbish terminal in denver airport (husband's two month old tablet PC mysteriously "died" on the flight here AND flight to Burbank is delayed by more than two hours - should get there for about midnight...)
Anyway, checked in 3.5 hours before flight at LHR, BUT one of our three bags didn't make it to Denver. The bag full of ski boots and stuff and the skii bag made it here, the case full of clothes didn't! Thatt case has ALL our clothes in incluuding those for the funeral (day after tomorrow). Baggage lady gave us an "essentials" bag + $400 for clothes ($200 each - we were travelling club world).
She said case SHOULD arrive in Denver tomorrow (they will not route directly to LAX) and should be with us some time Tuesday morning. The funeral is at 11am Tuesday morning, so obviously we cannot risk having no suitable clothes - so have to go shopping tomorrow. Well not sure $400 will covergood clothes (i.e. suit for husband etc) for the two of us + any other clothes/incidenttals that we need.
We will spend whatever we need to get what we need, but wondering about claiming annything back (will keep all receipts). Will BA re-imburse any more, tickets were bought on Barclaycard Platinum (before I got a BA Amex) and we have travel insurance. But wondering what others in a similar situation have done?
Also anyone know of a good exorcist in the LA area - husband must have a curse or something
Thanks for any advice.
