AS ONE OF THE MOST INCOMPETENT AIRLINES IN THE UNITED STATES.
last night I had a red eye from SEA to MIA, 930pm flight which would arrive around 7am local MIA time.
I get to the airport right after work to give me time to grab some drinks and dinner.
830 rolls around and I get to the gate.. and the flight has arrived and its unboarding.
900 rolls around and they haven't started boarding my flight.
930 comes, not a peep from the lady at the kiosk.
Finally at 945 they announce theres a mechanical issue and it will be 30 min delayed, they needed a "transmitter". No problem, we are in SEA TAC of all places, should be easy to get a spare part for a 757.
They say new boarding time is 1030.
1030 comes and we notice the new boarding time is now 1:15am. Awesome.
1045 rolls around, "delayed until 8am".. cue yao ming meme
Everyone is growing incredibly impatient at this point, im on the verge of going crazy.
1100 comes around and they announce the flight is cancelled and to go pick up our bags and go to a ticket counter to rebook our flights.
We then wait an hour for or bags to get dumped off at baggage claim.
Go up to the ticket counter to find one person there dealing with about 100 people. **** that I say..I go home since the new flight is at 8am.
We get to the airport at 630 to find the ticket counter to be retardedly under staffed. That takes an hour to re check in.
Finally we get through security, get to the gate to notice they brought the ****ing wrong plane to the gate.. a 737.
Im now pooping since I don't know what else to do and Allah knows how long this will take.
