[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It is not a refund!  What OP is talking about is a request for a bail-out.  The other families are not in possession of the money to give back to her.[/quote]

Actually, they might be, but it's not their responsibility to cover OP who wants to bail on vacation. Why should they eat her portion if the trip because she doesn't want to go?[/quote]

But that is my point.  "Refund" implies that everything reverts to status quo.  Nobody is out anything.  (I give you back the shirt, you give me back the money I paid for it.)  [b]What she is asking to do is transfer the cost from her to her friends[/b].  That is not a refund.[/quote]

Absolutely correct and the reason why she has no case for what she considers a "refund". If her friends offer to off-set her costs, that's one thing. And if they were able to get another (paying) family to take her place, that would be the right thing to do. But, she's pulling out at the last minute for no good reason and has no right to expect them to pay for changing her mind.[/quote]
