I guess the only notable thing here is that it sucks she gave up her seat for their teen… that’s a lot of guilt, clearly. But I can’t put aside that this was a luxury tour for rich people that didn’t do any research ahead of time.

Would it be sadder to you if the family had lower numbers on their bank accounts?

… yes. I think so. Why would I feel bad about that?

I would correlate the convenience of research about a very potentially deadly leisure expedition directly with wealth. That seems reasonable.

If this was a gratis expedition for underprivileged children, yes, I think that would have been worse.
