If not, it would not be surprising. Corporations seem so heartless. Anyway, I'm sorry for your loss. I've been thru similar, and it is not fun.

The advantage was (at the time since changed) they were a direct flight from Madrid to Toronto and you only need a small deposit to hold the flight till 3 months before, as well they were a bit cheaper. Unfortunatly my Mom died a few days after we paid for the flights or we would have simply combinde the two holidays. We debated canceling the second holdiay but the flights were a large portion of the budget. This year in heading home were using my Wife's frequent flier miles to go for free. Those flights can be changed for a small fee. As well we found out it's a direct flight this year! We couldn’t change the flights as they were booked with Air Transat a charter, so they are fixed.

It's so easy to justify bad choices when we want to. We just got to get back on the path to financial freedom and keep on moving forward :-) It really comes down to not letting unavoidable or unexpected setbacks become an excuse for slacking.
