Hey Bulldog
 
   Sorry, my computer skills suck. I hit the "BACK' key about 20 times and finally found the letter. Perhaps it was not sent because I did not title it. The message said "Mail, untitled". I sent it again and the screen said "MESSAGE SENT". Check your box again.

One thing I will mention for consideration Bulldog...  If you even join the class action suit, then the $500 voucher is worthless.
 
 Part of the release you sign for the voucher, is that it is considered Total payment for damages, and you forgo all other avenues..
 
 So, if you join the class action, and it fails, or the pay-out is less than $500 per person, after fees, and Lawyer rip-off, you are S.O.L.
 
 Just something to keep in mind.

 When do you think you would have to sign...before you use it..or within a certain time frame..?

My guess would be that if your name is listed in the class action suit, the voucher will no longer be valid for you. You'd have to talk to Sky Services themselves to really find that one out.

  Call a Lawyer for free advise. You will be advised if it is better to take the voucher, join the class action lawsuit, or sue on your own. Lawyers can get their hands on previous lawsuits towards airline companies and their outcome.

My thoughts are..........
 
 If the airline is giving every passenger a $500.00 voucher then they know damn well if people sued then they would be receiving a lot more than $500.00 each.

I think that if they where so conceren about our safty and satisfaction they would have done something before this..and now it may just be hush money..who knows..I do know that some passengers will be happy with it..and then there are those who will not be..

$500 is not a great deal of money these days but it is better than nothing considering no one was injured.   I would have though that $1000 per person would have been more appropriate.
 
 However if you join this class action lawsuit how long is this likely to drag on for?

One very important thing to remember about "Vouchers" when sent by a travel company.
 
 Earlier this year I had a problem with a flight booking from another travel company. They offered a $300 Voucher. I accepted and thought this is great as it will reduce my next flight cost by $300.
 
 WRONG ! ! !
 
 The voucher states that the $300 reduction is off the Regular Brochure Price of the package or flight.
 Heck, these days with sell-offs and discounts, you can normally get the damn flight/package for even less then the Full Price minus the Voucher.
 
 Ergo.... The Vouchers are often not worth the paper they are printed on. But by the time you find this out, it's long past the time to do anything about it.
 
 Personally, I'd skip the voucher and go with the class-action. At least if you win something or get compensation, it will be in CASH that you can apply to the lowest price you can find for another trip, not the damn Brochure Price.
