Are you aware it probably wasn’t your friend, but a scammer hacking their account? This is a typical one - “stranded overseas and need help”.

Your friend got pissed because you bought a connection flight in economy class, the cheapest available there is

Just to confirm what others have posted. Your friend's e-mail has been hacked. You have sent money to a scammer, not to your friend. You should try to contact your friend some other way (e.g. phone) to warn him/her what is going on. A friend of mine shelled out GBP1250. I hope you paid less.

You’ve been scammed. Call the airline and see if you can get credit for your own future travel.

They made it over there they can make it back

Did you give your bank info to the Nigerian Prince who wants to share his riches with you too ??

Report it OP, i doubt you'll get it back but it's worth a shot, just don't be so gullible next time

Unless we all got the wrong end of the stick and your friend used you for some unknown reason or purpose
