It is not unusual to ask family members, it is how their society has managed for centuries

OP is not their family though. [/quote]

I wouldn't pay the whole bill and I am always bothered by entitlement, though I am forgiving of grieving people.  But, the whole not being family thing is really strange to me.  Part of my family by marriage (my brother's wife and some others) are Hispanic and  from Puerto Rico.  We would consider these people family and our definition of family would consider others even further removed to be family.  I guess some people have a limited definition of what family is.

As a PP said, I'd offer to buy a couple of plane tickets or pay the hotel bill.  It takes a lot for someone to ask for help and, since I could, I would.  [/quote]

This. I'd offer to pay two of the $83 plane tickets and tell them that is all you can afford to offer to pay and not think anything more of it. That would cover for BIL and SIL.  They would be on their own for the rest.[/quote]
