We purchased tickets to fly to FT Lauderdale, FL for $748. Prior to the flight I was diagnosed with stage IIIC colon cancer. DR wouldn't allow me to leave. I called US Airways and asked what my options were, they said I could use the tickets for a later flight but they had to be used prior to May 5 2009. I asked what happens if I die before I can use the ticket. The man said," Send us a copy of your death certificate and we will send you a refund."

My e-ticket says I can change the reservation subject to a $150 change fee and the new itinerary will be priced at the lowest available published fare at the time of the change.

I found tickets to Colorado Springs for $579 total to fly for Christmas. I figured if I paid an additional $131 over the $748 I have already paid, I could buy the tickets. US Airways tells me I have to pay $300 in addition to the $748 I have already paid and this is for a 1 1/2 hour flight to Colorado Springs from Phoenix. The oncologist is telling me I have less than a year to live.

If I were certain he was correct, I would fly to Colorado Springs on Frontier and let US Airways refund the price of my ticket after I die. However, I don't intend to die just to make them provide a little customer service. After talking with their customer service, I think even dying wouldn't get them to provide any customer service.
