lbrjet,
I agree with you as to not having to pay in advance. I too feel it's bad business and just plain wrong! Maybe they will get smart and change it as they should. Things happen in life and so often when the timing is terrible.
My 85 yr old blind brother and his in poor health wheelchair wife purchased airline tickets and special needs to come here for a week in West Michigan from West Palm Beach area on October 22nd this year to visit all their family once again as their "days" are limited now. They grew up here and have lots of family here but have lived in Florida since the 60's as that's were his occupation took him. They also bought a ticket for their RN daughter to come along too help both of them and help with their healthcare needs etc for the trip.
3 weeks ago, his wife was rushed by ambulance to the hospital with chronic severe issues and only a 50% chance of surviving at best in intensive care. Severe diabetes and needs dialysis 3 times a week and her dialysis company (DaVita Pdi) has a branch only about 2-1/2 miles from our home here. She's still in intensive care and hanging on but the airlines won't refund a dime of the over $1500 they paid including luggage costs that were prepaid and told almost a month before their flight time. Just offered them to advance their flying date to a later time subject to the airline's approval within 6 months or lose them of the ticket date and attached a $100/ticket additional cost even to that. I think that sucked too and it certainly wasn't planned or avoidable!
Prepay is not only a problem with RV Resorts/camping/or other activities and it shouldn't happen. Just running their business off their customer's advanced purchases with no assurance they will ever receive what they'd paid for. Like going for groceries and paying fully for what you think you want to buy before you even leave home. OR Paying for a new vehicle fully before it's even in the production schedule to be made. OR Paying for your dinner at a restaurant before you even get in your vehicle to go there! All is simply wrong and a huge turnoff!!!
