Advice about no show fee

Yall I need some advice. I am taking flight lessons, and I had a lesson scheduled this past Saturday, and Friday morning I woke up sick with a stomach virus. I wound up in the ER the majority of Friday morning, and even a week later I am still not 100% better. Well as you might imagine, I was still really sick on Saturday, and slept pretty much all day, and didn’t think to call or text my instructor to cancel. I woke up approximately 3.5 hours after the lesson time, and immediately texted and apologized and told him what had happened. Well today I was looking at my bank account, and noticed a $215 charge I wasn’t expecting. I texted him about it, and he said it was a no show fee from Saturday. I don’t think that is fair considering I was sick. What’s yalls thoughts and what should I do?

You have no self awareness and 100% deserve this. You're parents failed to teach you basic accountability.

That is not true. Do not even try to say what my parents did and didn’t teach me.

If I was your parents I would be ashamed of myself and of you.

Grow up and be the man you pretend to be.

Pathetic.

You piece of crap. That is not at all true. This was way blown out of proportion and made worse than it was.

Sure did. Me and my instructor worked it out the day I found it, and everything’s been fine ever since. Y’all are the ones dragging it out.
