You missed an international flight due to a problem at the airport. Write a letter to the airline. In your letter: • Describe what happened that caused you to miss your flight • Explain how missing your flight impacted you • Clearly state what you would like the airline to do

Dear sir or madam, I am writing in regard to an international
flight
that I missed
last
week due to some technical issues with your company aircraft. For the
last
two weeks, I have been travelling for my business purposes in different cities and countries.
Last
week I had a plan to travel to
London
. Unfortunately, I missed my connecting
flight
from Toronto, Canada to
London
, due to some technical difficulties experienced by one of your company’s aircraft. Because of
this
delay, my
London
flight
reached 10 hours late, and as a result, the meeting with my business partners was cancelled. And urgently, they have to arrange another meeting with my colleagues. As the purpose of
this
meeting was not fulfilled, I hope you would compensate me for
this
loss as well as my returning
flight
cost from
London
to Toronto, Canada. I look forward to hearing from you. Yours faithfully, Karampal Kaur
