The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:
Rules (interactive)
Rule 1- All posts must be legitimate questions. All post titles must include a question.

Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.
That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.
Questions which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.
Rule 6- Regarding META posts and joke questions.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-question posts using the [META] tag on your post title.
On fridays, you are allowed to post meme and troll questions, on the condition that it's in text format only, and conforms with our other rules. These posts MUST include the [NSQ Friday] tag in their title.
If you post a serious question on friday and are looking only for legitimate answers, then please include the [Serious] tag on your post. Irrelevant replies will then be removed by moderators.
Rule 7- You can't intentionally annoy, mock, or harass other members.
If you intentionally annoy, mock, harass, or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.
Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.
Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.
Let everyone have their own content.
Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here.

Not more money...just come back when weather permits flying a hot air balloon...
He doesn't have to pay for another flight? Thought it was like water parks where your money just goes into the ether if it rains.
The comment of not getting money back but being allowed to reschedule to me implies they can reschedule and no additional money needs to be paid. If you cancel, you lose your money.
I could be wrong, but typically when a company tells me I can reschedule, I don't need to pay again. Nothing is cancelled, just postponed.
Oh wow, I missed that sentence. Makes sense now, nevermind!
Actually that is the problem to me.
If I make an appointment for something (hot air balloon ride) then on the appointed day they call and say sorry to high of wind. I understand there is danger. So I can see them rescheduling. But if it happens again. Then to me give me the option of a refund.
Don't make me drive an hour and a half one way, then after I'm half way there, cancel. And expect me to be happy if that happens several times.
BTW I'm not upset with you. Annoyed with companies that think this sort of a business model is ok.
But from other commentors it seems to not just be that way in my state but everywhere. My mom has never had a hot air balloon ride and she doesn't have many years left. Guess she may never get one.
Oh absolutely, still in agreement with you. I just thought they were outright stealing your money. Time is still valuable. I don't think a balloon ride might be a guarantee though, just the nature of it. Hope you guys find a way!
