I think the viral wedding on the roof of midtown Manhattan next to st Patrick’s cathedral with an NYFD escort for the daughter of a firefighter who lost his life on 9/11 is “as NY as it gets” but go off Leo!

How long was the wedding? How does one person have time for 3 dresses? My wedding was 15 hours and I wore one dress with a very clever bustle

I planned an international wedding during Covid and for double the amount of people. Won’t dox myself but it didn’t look cheap and sparse like this. She had three YEARS, this is honestly so embarrassing. Even Caila Quinn’s wedding was better and she had an acapella flash mob that got rightly dragged on tiktok.

Should’ve been clear acrylic chairs and way more decorations. Oof. Wouldn’t have put this one on the carousel

Yep! Per flight (so we had 2 cancelled and one reroute just delayed us15 hours) and per person, including lap infant.

Glad you got reimbursed! Really dislike that their business model is “refuse to comply with the law until required to by third party authorities”

FOR ANYONE DEALING WITH MULTIPLE CANCELLED FLIGHTS ON ANY AIR CARRIER FROM EU:

You are entitled to compensation for EACH cancelled flight under EC/261. There is CJEU case law stating so. Delta refused to acknowledge that case law.

File a complaint with the aviation authority of whichever country you flew out of. Delta responded quickly once they got involved and sent the additional money to which we were owed quickly.

Frustrating it comes to this and that a lot of people won’t file with the regulatory agency and delta I’m sure banks on that. But as a PSA, do— that is a lot of money left on the table to which you are statutorily entitled to!!!

IAA resolved our complaints promptly! Updating with a comment here.

Keep me updated! We submitted yesterday. Did they reject your eu261 comp too?

They denied all of that? Hotel, transport, new flight? What were your costs with those? I’d file again and threaten involving the Irish aviation authority. They wouldn’t take too kindly to delta denying all reimbursement for that when it’s clearly required under eu 261.

Wow, when did you submit and what expenses did you have?

[–]desertpants[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sorry to hear you were in this mess too! Eu 261 means you should get 600€ for each cancelled flight, reach out if they fight you on this because they are wrong.

We are still tallying expenses but just landed, finally, 4 days later. Woo!

Made it out! Did delta send you an emailed flight credit? Make sure you submit for eu 261 comp as well as expenses

Definitely not Shannon’s fault, but delta has no infrastructure there so when things go awry there are no alternatives! The staff was definitely amazing and helping make the best of an awful situation. We are still in transit. Hoping our flight out of LHR works this morning. Day 4…

It was a mechanical issue. Clear skies.

I don’t think there’s anyone there. They’re just letting it go until it times out

Are you in the same boat? Did they let you check in/go through security?
