From the Mailbag: Sudden Itinerary Change
Q: I bought a round-trip ticket on Alaska Air from Oakland to Kona, Hawaii. Soon after, I received an e-mail from Alaska stating that the return flight is going to the San Jose airport and not Oakland. The two airports are 50 miles apart. Alaska is giving us $200 voucher for this inconvenience and a voucher for a bus to get us back to Oakland Airport. This is not a minor change. Do I have any recourse? I feel like I should be asking for a $400 voucher, since this is half the ticket price.
A: Find out here.
