Tips on Expected compensation for this?
I’m 1k. Flew United ($8k roundtrip Int’l Business ticket). The outbound was IAD thru FRA to FLR. But UA missed my connection (their fault). The best they could do was give me a 5hr layover, then fly me to PSA and then take a train to FLR. Obviously pain in the ass, arrived 8hrs late, disrupted schedule etc.

At minimum eu261 is in play because the trip navigated EU airspace.

I’d look for additional compensation on any added expenses for food etc. unlikely to get much more than minimum even as 1K.

Expected comp would probably be 700-800 euros depending on expenses involved

United agrees they screwed up and should compensate I’m just curious from others’ similar experiences, what might be expected.

(If someone paid you $8k and you did a horrible job and it was your fault, would you not take care of that customer?)

What was their fault?

1. Ask to be put on other airlines with interline agreements, even non star alliance ones. Delays happen and there are only so many flights out there. If they've tried their best to route you already then it is what it is.
2. You should be able to claim EU261. Retain all receipts you have for food, drink, other travel expenses etc.

Send an email to 1k voice/file a complaint and you'll prob get some travel credits or miles

So my fiancée and I are relatively late in terms of finally landing well paying jobs and being able to save money instead of living paycheck to paycheck. We’re both 36 and currently rent a 2 bedroom in NY and have a combined savings of $35,000 which she wants to use as a down payment on a condo. I kinda just wanna continue saving while renting. I also literally just started contributing to my 401K so I’m also late in the game for that too.
