Life Damn airlines

**007** · 02-19-2008, 12:41 AM

They just changed my nonstop return flight from Orlando later this year to a stopover in Milwaukee. WTH!!!? I purchased NONSTOP for a reason. Anyone else had a problem with this on airlines? I have to wait until tomorrow to even deal with the change.

I'll be amazed if it's not fixed the moment you talk with them.

Boy, it damn well better be. Traveling with 2 children which was exactly why I booked nonstop. AND I was traveling with another party who purchased their tickets separately. Still waiting to hear from them on if they got screwed over too.

But that just says flights from KC to Orlando were affected. My flight is from Orlando to KC. It says nothing about that.

ya, I've just about had it with airlines and the hassle of flying. I'll only fly if it's a oneway nonstop flight, otherwise I'm perfectly fine with a road trip.

There is no way I will be accepting a stopover with children. There had better be some serious comping in that case.

I think a big, fat, comp is your worst case scenario.

Back in August I had a 9AM flight to Vegas delayed 3 times, then they changed planes and I didn't have a seat on that plane (which was taking off at 1pm). So I heard over the loud speaker ''anybody without a seat on flight ''''', please go to gate '''' immediately. I pulled an OJ Simpson to get over to that gate and was first in line. they offered me first class on a 4pm direct flight, plus a $600 travel voucher that's good for a year. I was happy in the end.

Oh, agreed. They would have to seriously "Sell it" to get me to accept a comp right now. If I was traveling alone I wouldn't be all that upset.

You are on post 6666 dude.
