AA abandoned me inside Argentina’s EZE after I got denied entry to the country due to COVID. Left me inside security, with somebody else’s passport, without a return flight. How many points?

Full refund, $500 voucher to shut you up. Ask for $10k and mention you’re considering getting a lawyer. I wouldn’t want points, since they control the currency. I’d want hard cash or a voucher with minimal expiration.

2 drink vouchers.

I know we’ll never get it but I would love to hear the whole story: why are you traveling to Argentina right now? Why was the airline handing you a passport, never let these things outside of your grasp?

I assumed they gave my passport to the one other American arriving at a similar time that they were blocking from entry - whose passport was the one given to me. So I checked a bunch of the gates and yelled “Bruce?! They gave us the wrong passports!” into the bathrooms to see if he was in there. After not finding him for 30m, I stopped to despair and evaluate my options. That’s when he found me. Perks of being 6’6” I guess... Easy to find. He had my passport! So we traded.
