My family is in the US after travelling MEL-SYD-LAX and onward via Virgin's partner Delta. We requested special meals at the time of booking, a few months ago, and I checked that they were registered before we left. None of the meals were loaded, although the steward did his best in finding some fresh fruit for the kids. Everybody was pretty grumpy because they'd gone 17+ hours without a meal and we basically wasted our morning in LA getting everybody fed - most places were closed, because it was Christmas.
I feel pretty bad about this because I'm the one who booked us on Virgin instead of our usual route. Should I ask Virgin for compensation, and what would be an appropriate request? Also, where should I direct this to have the best chance of it being heard?
