It sucks, but that was your personal decision. There's not one company in the world, that offers ViP service for people that decide, that one day they might or might not want to transfer somewhere. Omega was opened with the early access, you did have enough time prior to your vacation to do the transfer, or ask your friends to wait for you. But since your friends didn't waited, why would SE wait or email you personally to ask if you would like to still transfer, before they are temporary closing the transfer of an overpopulated server. There was a reason they opened that other EU server, to avoid problems we have seen with Balmung and Gilgamesh. You had your chance but decided to ignore it.
