In the original thread, you admit that you were given an opportunity to board your originally scheduled flight when you objected to the "switch". You should count your blessings (to the tune of 1200 Euro = $1980) and move on.

The link to the original thread is incorrect. This is the orginal thread: Bait and Switch
Thanks for correcting the link.
I did not demand 800 from NW. My stand was that the amount that was given was different from the amount that was offered initially (600). That's what I wrote to NW. I am not going to re-hash the circumstances again. It might very well have been a goodwill gesture. But it is pretentious to say you know why NW chose to say "compensation that was promised to you was not delivered". This indicates that it wasn't quite black and white as some posters claimed it to be.

People. A winky is there for a reason. Stop taking yourselves so seriously.

We're all friends here The debate, and contrary opinions, are just the general nature of FlyerTalk.

Dewd, make love --- NOT war. or, at minimum, relax in front of a warm fire with a nice glass of Woodford Reserve.
I don't need apologies. Did you see the winky?
