[quote=Anonymous]For some people, the jet lag and hassle of travel is especially unpleasant. Why bear it twice? Even though she can afford two round trip tickets, she may not think it's economical to do it that way, and most of us have a sense of what's a reasonable price to pay, even when we could just buy ourselves out of the inconvenience. She only visits once a year. I would say something along the lines of - I hear your complaints, I would like to help remedy them, this is what I suggest, but you are of course free to do otherwise and we will always be happy to host you whenever you decide to come. If she keeps complaining, I would pick one line (maybe "you're welcome to visit another time if this doesn't work for you") and stick with it. Don't engage beyond that. [/quote]
