When I went to get on the plane they told me I was reassigned so a family cold sit together. I was given a seat at the back of the plane in the middle row. I objected at the gate and was told I could accept the change or rebook on a later flight. Traveling with "my family" I boarded and painfully flew to my destination. Called customer service when I got home and they originally said since I had traveled there was nothing they could do for me ,,, no refund. I protested and they escalated my call. Supervisor also refused to help and said I could send an email to corporate. When the passenger behind me in line at the gate entered the plane he told me the Gate Agent I was talking to was told by another agent you never tell a passenger they were moved for a family, you tell them they were moved to accommodate a disabled passenger. Could they be a more disgusting company? I am still fighting for a refund and won't easily give up. I do know I will never fly with them again and I am sorry I tried them this time. Moral of the story, don't pay to pick your seat, just ask that it be changed at the gate. If they refuse, make up a story why you need to be changed. Please don't be offensive and say you have a disability though.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-59320539793441425.post-7524266763459698332023-04-14T20:41:24.351-07:002023-04-14T20:41:24.351-07:00yes.. go till payment pageyes.. go till payment pageShrinidhi Handehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00875443161762278339noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-59320539793441425.post-23695323936242709012023-04-03T10:43:56.709-07:002023-04-03T10:43:56.709-07:00So where do I start?

After 2.5 hours in traffic to get to the airport arriving 45 minutes before my flight left, I was informed that I could not make the flight because they would not check my baggage in. I pleaded but to no avail. However, the girl next to me told the counter agent she needed to get on this flight. They told her sorry she could not because they could not check her luggage in. She informed them that she would carry it on the plane (this suitcase was just slightly smaller than my suitcase and definitely wasn’t going to fit in the overhead compartment) so they gave her a boarding pass letting her proceed. I pleaded that I would by another bag and repack in a suitcase that would accommodate the overhead bin. She informed me that I could not leave my empty suitcase so she would not let me board. I then asked to speak with a supervisor and was told they would be here in 35 minutes. 😡 I informed her that the flight now leaves in 40 minutes and even if I spoke to the supervisor I would still miss my flight. However, I decided to wait for the supervisor who continued to be unsympathetic to my issue. I was also informed that my ticket was non refundable and I would lose the total cost of my purchase. They did however offer to rebook my flight for the following day for an addition $100, but we’ll after my sons scheduled wedding . So I re-booked with another airline (United) that would put me in TN in time to make my sons wedding. So on the return flight I got to the airlines 2 hours early. When I checked in I was told that because I missed my first flight that my return flight was automatically cancelled.

First, they lure you in with cheap up front fares and then if you want a seat or any luggage, they overcharge you. Second, the return flight was nothing short of an epic failure in management and logistics. Anyoney you save will be recouped by the airport as you will be spending LOTS of time due to multiple delays.
