to all my mifnet friends - this wasn't me. I've never had the cash to buy full 
fare f/c. It was a clip from somewhere on the computer. And I agree the fellow 
should a, especially if they use a guy like Doug Church.

A reminder and cautionary tale [non refundable ticket]While suppressing my 
rage, allow me to offer a cautionary tale. Over 45 years I’ve been a passenger 
on ~2000 flights for business and personal, domestic and international. In 
February we booked British Airways business class tickets for my wife and 
myself to Europe. Having been BA Gold for nearly a decade in my business life, 
I had little concern booking a non-refundable ticket knowing I could, after 
paying punitive cancellation fees, apply the balance of the fare towards a 
future flight. You likely see where this is going…. Due to a family medical 
emergency, we’ve cancelled the trip. Bottom line, with the exception of a $180 
fee refund, the $8800 ticket and 98,000 Avios points are a total loss. I 
studied the terms and conditions prior to purchase and at no time did it 
outline the consequences of cancellation. Don’t be like me…
