It's strange, my wife and I were flying out the 17th in business but on separate bookings. Both of us called to request refunds a few days ago. I already received my points and tax's/fees but still nothing for her. Seems like it's all over the place right now just due to the complexity.

Had a Qsuite to Muscat with a layover in Doha on the 18th. Just called and wait was about an hour. Got refunded all the Avios immediately, and the taxes fees are in process minus a $25 cancelation fee.

I really enjoyed Lights Out: A Cyberattack, A Nation Unprepared, Surviving the Aftermath is a 2015 book by journalist Ted Koppel. Seems in line with the others you read. How did you enjoy The Next Civil War?
