In man hour terms OP has spent 'thousands of pounds' for very little return.
But I think he believed there was a principle at stake here, and I believe principles are worth fighting for.Be nice to people who are on their way downYou never know when they are going to pass you on their way back up againYou cannot light your own candle by blowing out someone else's0 -
Slack day at work so I looked into the background of this.:rolleyes:
Correct me if I'm wrong but this all stems from this thread
Because of a delay in departing you missed your next onward flight that was booked independently on another airline.
You still got to the destination but had to pay £105.
In that thread you admit that a friend advised you that as it was not a through ticket you would have problems.
You also admit that you did not have travel insurance for that trip :eek:
You were advised that you were most probably not entitled to the money back as it really wasn't Etihad liability for the onward journey.
You then asked about bringing the foreign company to court and were advised it would be a waste of time (especially for £110)..
Now having 'won' that case you are asking for advise as to how to get the money.
In each and every thread you have been given sound advice, which you have totally ignored as it obviously is not what you want to hear.
IMHO you were NOT entitled to any money from Etihad for the connecting journey.
Etihad T&C's
IF you had bought travel insurance you may have been able to claim.
You are wasting yours and everyone's time.
I can see why Etihad do not respond to your emails.:rolleyes:
My advice-which you will ignore of course -:D
Give it up, move on and learn from the experience.
Out of interest
:How much was the fare on the trip?
London Heathrow to Malaysia + the Low Cost Carrier Airline from Kuala Lumpur to ??
as your statement
intrigues me.
BTW Single trip insurance would probably have been £30
I am not aware of any insurance company that would cover this risk. Certainly a standard travel insurance policy would have been of no use to the OP. If you do know of anyone who covers this kind of risk (missed connections) then please post details.0
