Ameen booked a honeymoon in Dubai but the hotel he was allocated was in Abu Dhabi - several hours away. He has a rock solid claim but how much is it worth?

As this is a legal channel, it is interesting to note that the title to the video is completely wrong. He clearly states that his hotel was in Ras Al Khaimah, not Abu Dhabi. Ironically this type of mistake was rather the cause of the original complaint by the caller…..

Nice spot! I'll arrange for the title to get changed. Thank you.

You only get one chance of a honeymoon (with the same wife) and his was ruined by incompetence. This is one occasion where the courts should not only rule in his favour but award him the entire cost of the holiday. Appaling service.

It took Daniel Barnett 30 seconds on the internet (whilst on-air) to see that Ras Al K is not in Dubai or near the Palm resort. The caller could have done this himself and challenged the travel agent well before the honeymoon

I like the example about Wales v England. If I booked England and got Wales I don’t think there’d be enough money in the world to compensate me😅.

Personally I have little sympathy. It took Daniel Barnett 30 seconds on the internet (whilst on-air) to see that Ras Al K is not in Dubai or near the Palm resort. The caller could have done this himself and challenged the travel agent well before the honeymoon thereby saving all the upset he had. Ras Al K is half the price of Dubai so I guess this £5,000 honeymoon cost fitted his budget. I would also like to here the story from the side of the travel agent.

"The caller could have done this himself." And so could have the agent, who is the paid professional.

@Letsthinkaboutit-mb7nn Depends what the agent was asked to do. 'Find me a cheap 5-star hotel near Dubai' will have a different response to 'Find me a cheap 5-star hotel within a 10 minute drive from the Palm Resort. I've been to Dubai and to Ras-Al-K and the hotels at RAK are less than half the price of those in Dubai. I think the guy was motivated more by cost than location, and kicked-up a fuss because his new wife was upset...!

@Letsthinkaboutit-mb7nn But we don't know that the travel agent told them that it's in Dubai - just his word to that effect. I would like to hear the travel agent's side. I think he's a cheapskate who wanted a fancy but cheap hotel and the he got caught out. It you tell an agent that you want a hotel in London and they book you one in Wimbledon then you can't complain that you're 45 minutes from Buckingham Palace...
