Issues with confirmation and communication further detract from the overall experience. While customers appreciate the value offered, enhancing customer service responsiveness could significantly improve satisfaction levels.

Horrible service
January 7, 2025

I've had to wait 1.5 hours per call and each agent mentioned different things. The first agent was able to offer us a reschedule for a penalty. But unfortunately the call got disconnected from your end. We had to then call again and wait for another 1.5 hours and The next agent offered us an option of either canceling the flight or turning up as a no show. How can these be the only options? We've been waiting on a total of 6 hours trying to get an option but none of your team agents could help us. All this while dealing through a family death. I can't believe the customer care of this company could be so crude.

What options are these when it's clearly mentioned that you can reschedule at a cost of paying a penalty which we are ready to pay for? This is clearly mentioned in your term and conditions.

Apparently there is nothing available for the whole month of Jan. Which is clearly hard to believe. I'm extremely disappointed with the service and options available through this company. I will definitely not be purchasing any tickets from you and will be recommending my friends and family to do the same.

You'll are highly unprofessional and ill informed.
