[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=MayaJ][quote=Anonymous][quote=MayaJ][quote=Anonymous]OP, you sound like an entitled brat. You are spending $6K on a condo for a ski vacation (that you booked non-refundable) and you want special treatment because now you don't want to go? Also, you don't seem to realize that Colorado is not Italy, Austria, etc. Have you seen what's going on in Italy? People are dying of COVID-19 and the family have to keep the dead bodies in the house because there's a lockdown. Get some perspective, please.[/quote] What makes you think we won't be there in one week? Because it is possible we will be. And I'd rather be home than stranded in another state when it happens. [/quote] And if we get there, policies will likely change. But until then, it's not reasonable to expect service providers to eat everything. By all means, OP can stay home. That's not a bad idea. What we're talking about is who should bear the loss here. I don't see why the condo owner should be the one to have to bend when OP booked something non-refundable.[/quote] Because by the time we get there, it might be too late to come back, and that is not a risk one should be expected to bear, especially with young children. These are unprecedented times, and people should be able to reach compromises. [/quote] A compromise by giving you your way? Lol. You are not “expected to bear” anything. You can choose to stay home. Your booking is non-refundable. Them’s the breaks.[/quote] The above poster was not me, but I assume in the same boat as me. I am OP. My way would be to get my money back, the way every hotel and other business has reimbursed people. I am offering them to extend me credit instead to use for future travel. Not exactly much of a loss for a property that is empty in March the way this one was. [/quote] We lost several thousand on a trip that was past the cancellation date. My spouse was diagnosed with cancer and needed to start treatment ASAP. I wasn’t happy, but those were the rules. [/quote]
