Flight Messup. Compensation?

[gamblore99]

guys saying that its my fault for losing the ticket,
Ridiculous. I called a week in advance and was told there was no problem.

Noah,
If you spent a month preparing for a trip: doing research, getting vacinations, preparing a bag, and scowering the internet for a cheap plane ticket only to find last minute that it wasn't happening because some dude forgot to send in your itenerary you would be pissed to. Hell, you got annoyed at just reading my post.

The mistake has cost me a lot of money and screwed up my trip. I don't think its unreasonable to feel entitled to something more than a refunded ticket. The responses, including your own, make it clear that it's not happening. So fine, I can deal.

Really though, your reproach is so uncalled for.
