Totally unprofessional customer service!
Due to a booking mistake done by my company, my suitcase was left out from the original booking. Ideally you would pay the difference and follow-up with your flight. That didn't happen, because of large waiting times at the check-in desks and few customer service representatives. I missed my flight. No compensation at all, the passenger is at fault as usual - suggesting follow-up flights for 3x higher price than the original booking or use other carrier. Very well done. 👏
In the end, I used totally different and cheaper transportation methods to get home.
Super Airline, kann man nicht viel schlechtes sagen. Ist Sehr Pünktlich.

Nur die Bestuhlung und die sitze sind schlecht. Teils sehr alte sitze mit Löcher.
Wir können die teilweisen schlechten Bewertungen nicht ganz nachvollziehen. Online mit Sitzplatzreservierung (ist wie bei allen anderen Airlines auch kostenpflichtig) problemlos eingecheckt. Pünktlicher Abflug - alle Koffer wurden befördert. Der Flieger war sauber und der Flug verlief sehr ruhig. Essen an Board leider, wie inzwischen fast überall üblich, kostenpflichtig und überteuert - daher einen Stern Abzug. Fazit: Kann man durchaus machen, wenn man günstig Fliegen will.
Unprofessionell und kundenunfreundlich. Sofern man die Möglichkeit hat sollte man einen großen Bogen um diese Airline machen. Mitarbeiter geben teils falsche Informationen raus sofern man das Glück hat, dass überhaupt jemand antwortet - wenn das Gepäck verloren geht wird man alleine damit gelassen und weist die Verantwortung von sich. Ich habe noch nie so einen bodenlos schlechten Service wie hier erlebt.
I wish I had read the reviews before booking. The added fees nearly double the ticket price. They even charge for checked bags on International flights, and for seat assignment per leg of your international flight. We had to stop in 3 cities to get to Naples so they tacked on 3 different charges for seats. They also don't let you carry on any bag that's more than 18 pounds--then they charge a huge fee if your carry on exceeds. It's a real screw job. I flew United and Icelandic recently and the cost of your ticket includes a confirmed seat and checked luggage--plus no restriction on carry on bag weight. Do yourself a favor and book with another airline.
The worst airline in the world!!! Will never fly with them again. Will lie to you in any opportunity and try to charge you for 1 mm bag over. Disgusting behaviour. Never had this experience with any other airline. Just plain disgusting.
Es ist ein Witz. Standard-Handgepäck für einen Laptop passt nicht zu Ihnen. Betrüger Kunden für zusätzliche Gebühren. Bei normalen Transportstrecken gibt es keine derartigen Dehnungen. Halten Sie sich von diesen Fluggesellschaften fern. Ich empfehle es nicht!
Had my flight "delayed" due to engine problems, and that can happen. That was at 6:30. They ran engine tests with us passengers onboard in the hope to resolve the situation positively but at 8:30 we were eventually disembarked. So far, no problem. Here though is where it started going south. I received a texted saying the flight was rescheduled for 9:50. Around 10:00 I received another text saying the flight was rescheduled for 12:40. At around that time, it was rescheduled for 18:00. Throughout a very long morning (at the airport at 4:30 for the check in till 12:30) we did not receive any food/drink coupons as required by law. I purchased my own food. The coupons arrived via text far too late as compared to the accumulated delay. By then many people had purchased food at their own expenses. Also the Ryanair app was practically useless as no changes nor updates were visible nor allowed. Communication of the final total delay (at 18:00, from the original departure time of 6:30) was also delayed far too much. People had to hang in uncertainty for hours before they could make a decision for themselves. Lastly, there is NO Ryanair customer service (at least at Charleroi) so no one was kept up to date with flight info, food and beverage or alternative travel options.
Während meines Zwischenstopps mit Turkish Airline in istanbul, wurden aus meinem Koffer gestern mehrere Gegenstände entwendet die mir aufgefallen sind und fehlen. Ich bin schockiert und werde dies zur Anzeige bringen. Kaum zu glauben. Bin sprachlos und schockiert.
Aweful aweful airline
Never have I experienced such bad service.
The tco bald man at the gate pushed me onto the jet bridge. How dare he touch me like that.
The staff on board were horrific esp the lady manager she was absolutely rude.
Turbulence was crazy and no announcement was made from the captain. Never will I use this airline again
Aweful experience and was delayed 1 hr as usual.
Welcome to FRA! Please pick-up your baggage at the AirRail Terminal near the long-distance train station before continuing your trip on LH3608 to Cologne.- this was the beginning of my ideal in Frankfurt.

So this message I got was wrong and my luggage was back in the arrival terminal.

After waiting for almost half an hour I suspected something was wrong so I went to pressure them.

They figured the luggage was not coming to the pick up point and I had to run back to arrival to pick up the bag

To get into the arrival was another mission as the door to open was jammed. It eventually opened after multiple banging. I picked up the bag and run back to the long distance train

My train was not visible on the board. So I went to the station info box and then the guy figured the platform for me. I arrived to the platform and the train was delayed 🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯
„Thank you for flying with Ryanair. Last year over 90% of our flights did not arrived.“
Ich hatte den Smart-Tarif mit Prio-Boarding gebucht. In Düsseldorf interessierte das keinen, das Personal behandelte alle gleich. In Dublin das gleiche.
E-Mails an Eurowings sind auch nach vier Wochen nicht beantwortet.
In Dublin wurde per E-Mail angeboten, das Handgepäck kostenlos als normales Gepäck aufzugeben. Davon wusste das Personal in Dublin nichts. Das würde kosten. Es wurde also abgelehnt.
Die Schalter in Dublin zeigten nur "Eurowings". Ziel und Flugnummer durfte man raten.
Die Billigfluglinie wird dieser Bezeichnung absolut gerecht. Dafür zumindest gibt es 5 Sterne. Glückwunsch!
P. S. Und dann das Chaos in Düsseldorf, wo sich die Gäste selbst einchecken mussten. Als die Schlangen dort, anstatt den Schaltern zu lang wurden, brach man ab und ließ doch alle direkt an die Schalter. Peinlich.
The cabin baggage that was allowed on my outbound flight, was not allowed on my return flight. The planes overhead bins were empty. Racist
If you don’t pay priority boarding passes it will be chaotic.
They send us to going down and then going up because the passengers come out that way too.
No one ware mask and (January 2023) and you always have to walk to your plane and go out with a bus.
For a short trips 2 or 3 hour is very ok 👌
Τραγική εταιρεία, είχα καιρό να ταξιδέψω με Austrian airlines, ήταν άψογη πριν χρόνια, ευγενικό προσωπικό, νερό καφέ χυμό και φαγητό στο αεροπλάνο και προς έκπληξη μου τώρα που ταξίδεψα για Βιέννη είχαν μόνο νερό δωρεάν και ο καφές ήταν με χρέωση! Το προσωπικό αγενέστατο, νευρικό και χωρίς χαμόγελο και πραγματικά με έκανε να αναρωτηθώ τι διαφορά έχει με την Ryanair!Πραγματικα αν δεν αλλάξετε την στρατηγική σας, σας βλέπω χειρότερους από τις low cost εταιρείες!
why don’t you allow british cats on board? this is not good. i’ve seen millions of cats on board but why wont you allow any british cat?
전화도 안받는 한심한 회사
Super Airline Super Service, kann es nur empfehlen. Sorry aber das muss ich loswerden. An die die hier jammern TA hätte den einen oder anderen Flug gestrichen.
Wisst ihr wieviele Flüge Lufthansa gestrichen hat allein letzten Monate? Tausende Flüge informiert euch mal und das nicht wegen Streiks.
Fliegt dann besser mal mit Lufthansa😂
Also wenn man alles betrachtet, waren wir sehr zufrieden. Flüge waren in Time. Start und Landung waren gut. Flieger war in einem guten Zustand. Was einen Stern Abzug angeht... ich habe noch nie so muffiges Bordpersonal gesehen wie auf XR1073 und XR1074. Kein Lächeln nichts persönliches...nix.
So verkauft man aber auch nichts.
They send email and ask people to meet up earlier at Cologne airport because of limited security control personnel bu5 nobody is available at check-in counter 2 5 hours before flight.
Mit Mut fangen die schönsten Geschichten an . Ich wünsche Euch von Herzen immer gute a
Auslastungen , zufriedene Passagiere und Crews und ein harmonisches Team . Die Deutsch - israelische Verbindung profitiert definitiv von dieser Gründung
Wenn die Wartung der Flugzeuge genauso schlecht ist wie der Service dieser Airline, dann wünsche ich den Kunden viel Glück beim nächsten Flug denn es könnte der letzte sein. Aber ist ja typisch mullah Regime erst wenn was abstürzt wird etwas unternommen wobei dann werden sich wieder lächerliche Ausreden ausgedacht.
Unorganized staff, unpleasant and stressful.
Have flown Emirates for many years, and my family and I have spent 10's of thousands of euros on flights... but not any more. Emirates staff at Hamburg Airport were rude incredibly rude and unprofessional, and the only redress they could offer was a cut and paste email. Goodbye Emirates
