Here are the world's 5 worst airlines to fly with!
1. TACA AIRLINES (PERU BASED)
Taca are from Peru and are a terrible airline company. They messed up our flight and have screwed up a load of other people's flights down the years. The bus would have been faster! They are best avoided!! Avoid using Taca if you are in Peru.
2. Australian Airline Jetstar
Despite initially loving their cheap kick-ass fares, Jetstar quickly proved their lack of customer service to me in 2011. I had started a new job and been lucky to be given a whopping THREE days off in my first month, just so I could fly all the way back to the UK to attend a wedding. One of my best mates as a child was Michael McClelland and so I wanted to be there in Belfast for his big day. It would also be my first time in Northern Ireland for some 800 days - my longest ever time away from my native land. So I booked 2 flights with Jet Star as it was just so cheap even with connections, I then booked another two flights with Air Asia and Easyjet meaning I could get home to Michael's wedding, but would have 4 flights to take, a half day in Kuala Lumpur and a full day in Paris on route. Two cities I'd been to before, but hey I could see family and attend a wedding and keep my job as a school teacher in Hong Kong. All the flights were cheap. All looking good.
3. Aerolineas Argentinas
OK so I'm including this company but they're the best of this bad bunch to be honest - the onboard stewards were friendly and they eventually sorted me out. BUT here's what they did during the only three flights I took with them:
- changed the time of my first flight THREE times
- even made me change airports at Buenos Aires
- my flight was cancelled
- delayed the new flight they put me on (refusing to even give me a FREE COFFEE)
- they blamed computer error
4. CATHAY PACIFIC
They lost my bag in 2012 on a long haul flight from Hong Kong to Heathrow. When my bag didn't arrive in Heathrow I had no time to waste as my connection to Belfast City Airport was in 55 minutes so I had no time to even complain. Again I have to thank my girlfriend who sourced my bag in the end. It was still in Hong Kong 3 days later and was found. Cathay Pacific offered NOTHING in compensation, but eventually delivered my bag (safe and sound) to my parents home where I was staying for a week.
5. Cheap Company Air Asia
Air Asia have to be the worst airline company out there. They offer no compensation whatsoever for any kind of cancelled or delayed flight. Not even a free cup of tea and I have been on lots of delayed and cancelled flights from them!
- Air Asia are a shit airline company
I worked on car ferries dealing with customers day in day out for 2 seasons (Sorry for the delay, here's a free coffee), I have worked in countless bars and restaurants where the customer comes first. (Your beer isn't good? No problem I'll get you another one) and I know how to do Public Relations (I've done a year working with top brands in London and I've got a degree in the subject!!).
I will be doing a few more negative posts in future as all my travel stuff just seems a bit too happy and we all know that a lifestyle of travel isn't really like that!
