I asked flight attendants if we could be seated together but they told us we'd each have to take a middle seat, so with their permission I asked other passengers if they would kindly move so we could be together, especially as my daughter was grieving, and they did. People are nice.

I took out my phone and immediately started recording. I told( the officer) who we were and that my daughter was crying because she had lost a family member.

I gave the airline plenty of time to contact me and apologize -- over two weeks later, I've yet to receive anything more than two brief automated responses. The time for an apology is long past.
