    I mean this is perfectly reasonable, its why you can turn up at the airport 3 days late and get the next available flight to your destination, right?

              I’m well aware, and I was only talking about non-refundable tickets. I fly most weeks within the United States, and at least a few weeks internationally. But still, US airlines are incredibly accommodating in the US to changes to missed flights while most other airlines around the world are not. Because of this, I replied thinking their sarcasm was simple hyperbole.
