These are the world's worst airlines!
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. Jetstar a budget Airline
Jetstar are atrocious, they completely cancelled one of my flights in 2011 even after I had already got on the plane. Their flights are always delayed and they hate their customers a lot. They don't even offer any type of compensation and just take money off people and give nothing back!
3. Aerolineas Argentinas
A very strange company Aerolineas as they scheduled a flight for me before my initial flight was even due to leave. It was all a bit weird and I wasted a few days in Ushuaia sat in their office trying to sort the flights out.
- changed the time of my first flight THREE times
- even made me change airports at Buenos Aires
- cancelled an entire flight
- the next flight was then delayed
- they blamed computer error
4. Cathay Pacific Airlines
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
I hate Air Asia - they are a horrible airline company and I urge you all not to fly with them. The cancelled, delayed, changed lots of my flights down the years. When they did that they didn't even offer an apology or a free cup of tea or coffee. A hotel room would have been nice but we ended up sleeping on the floor at the airport.
- Air Asia are terrible
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!!).
It's a life of ups and downs and I want to give you the good and bad stuff from my journeys.
