]]> Comment on Dear Continental Airlines (great flight horror story) by Danny http://www.flight-club.org/blog/2005/06/dear-continental-airlines-great-flight-horror-story/#comment-57852 Danny Mon, 24 Mar 2008 22:16:25 +0000 http://www.flight-club.org/blog/2005/06/dear-continental-airlines-great-flight-horror-story/#comment-57852 Without a doubt, Continental is the worst airline I've had the displeasure of using. We just came back from a 8 day trip to Europe and Continental managed to lose all our luggage for 6 days! We were in a party of 7 persons and they lost all 7 pieces! and to make it worse, the luggage has been sitting at the Continental lost bags section all the time and no one bothered to check. I have tried to complain to Continental head office but I encoutered nothing but stonewalling and kept being transferred from one department to the next.... they simply do not care. If you are ever thinking of air travel in the future, please avoid Continental at all costs... otherwise, you'll spend your valuable vacation time chasing ghosts and you'll regret it. ... and the funniest part, if there was one, the main phone line to Continental is 1-800-WE-CARE2 ! Without a doubt, Continental is the worst airline I’ve had the displeasure of using.

A few days ago, I purchased tickets from AA.com (LAX-DFW-LHR-JFK-LAX) for myself and a friend at about AUD600 each. According to my credit card statement and AA.com, I have paid for these tickets and they have been "ticketed". Imagine my surprise to find that AA.com have now charged me twice for the same tickets! Clearly an administrative error (no surcharges, taxes, etc - it's the same tickets that have been billed twice). I keep calling the Indian call centre, and only speak to staff who seem to have no idea what I'm going on about (and also, couldn't give a damn). I will be in America from Australia in two weeks time, and I suppose I can get it fixed up at an AA ticket counter while I'm there - it just strikes me as being REALLY dodgy that they can charge you twice and not even know about it. But not only that - it's a massive pain in the arse to have the funds on my credit card tied up when I need them for something else. The inconvenience to me has been huge. Does anyone know of a number I can call to get results? And do you think I'd be pushing my luck if I asked for some kind of compensation for the inconvenience? Perhaps a cabin upgrade? No, on second thoughts, I'm not that kind of person. I don't want something for nothing - I just want things to go right. It's my first time with AA, and probably my last - they can't even sell me a ticket without stuffing up... Hi all.

I had to talk to people in India who I cuold not understand and do not have one lick of information concerning what could have happened to my luggage. There is nobody to take responsibility for your claim just this vague message that they are sending a message to ???someone and hopefully your luggage will materialize. I know I will never be fully compensated for all of my things that were lost (taken). I am soooo angry! Janice I have had a horrible experince with Delta concerning my lost luggage.
