Episode 60 Just Say No to Bad Airline Rebooking Options
10/26/18 • 13 min
Today we will be talking about what to do in the event of your airline changing and rebooking your original flight option. This can sometimes be an inconvenience, but it is always an opportunity to review your options. The basic idea to note here is that you do not need to accept the rebooking option they offer or select for you. Now, this does happen from time to time, so it is worth being aware of the different permeations of this situation and in this episode we walk you through all of these and show you how you can get the most out of a potentially uncomfortable position.
Key Points From This Episode:
- Reviewing your options in light of a cancellation or change.
- The easiest options for rebooking on airlines and alliances.
- Ways to react to a lack of success with rebooking.
- Waiting and dealing with it later at the airport.
- Considering a refund and purchasing another flight
- Getting better flight options even when a change seems insignificant.
- Requesting original routing credit for your airline loyalty points.

Episode 61 ZorkCast in 2019 - The Loyalty Treadmill
Welcome to the first episode of 2019 and thanks for joining us! Today we are joined by our friend Eric Rosenthal, and we will be thinking ahead to the new year and chatting about loyalty and how to get the most value for your needs. We talk about the expected value and the cost of all hobbies. We also consider the fact that if everyone took advantage of loyalty programs they probably would not be able to exist in the way that they do. The episode is finished off looking at some of the recent developments in airline loyalty programs and what this means for customers.
