The OP was on a night flight. You admitted you were on a day flight.
You made some point about it happened to you and you didn't complain, however when challenged admitted it would have been different if you too had been on a night flight.
If you think that little comparison is likely to assist the OP I'm honestly surprised.

Well read post 77 again then. Flippent comment about "it happened to me and I didn't complain" in a style which clearly trivialises what the OP says. Only for us to find you weren't even flying on a night flight where one night think that bedding is a fairly central item....

I think 5K is a bit light for this. But I also think that there are many elements that make the F experience, not least of which is the primary objective, to transport you from A to B. Also, there is the dining, lounges, Avios bonus, service, I could go on and on. So 5K is too light, but isn't way out imo.

If I had meant any deception over whether or not it was a night flight, I would hardly have put the route LHR-ORD in, would I? I simply added this as my own experience, without much thought, no trivialisation meant at all (which I hope may come through with my posts in this thread, including promptly and honestly responding to rossmacd when he asked me). I honestly wonder if you are viewing things through a certain lens here.

Looking at this from a slightly different angle...While a 'compensation culture' has lots of negative connotations - ambulance chasers, people faking whiplash etc, the principle that a service failure has an impact on an organisation's bottom line is sound. 5000 (£40?) doesn't seem to me to do the job in ensuring BA moves mountains to ensure it doesn't happen.
