Fly United if you want something free--
United Airlines.
They have one thing in common with EVERY trip I take--They overbook and screw someone over.
I went to California with a special someone in April and on the way back, we ended up trading in our tickets for a later flight (receiving a hotel stay and a future free flight). THEN I got STUCK in the Winnipeg Airport with about 12 LUNIE dollars (no idea how to properly use or even spell that--i.e. Canadian Coin Cash). My flight was supposed to leave at 955am. SO I get to the airport at 800am. Nice and early, because I have to go through customs, etc.
I am the 3rd person through customs that morning, I am ready to go!
THEN 830 comes and goes... 900 the same, 930... (still no announcement about the plane loading), 945... still nada, then 957, 1003... BY 1015, the lady decides to tell us that the flight was cancelled due to electrical damage and we'd all be rerouted to arrive at our destinations a little later. All we had to do was wait to be called. SO! I do just that. Sit and wait.
By 1130, I realize I am the only fool who didn't bother her! So I get in line and find out she's put me on the LAST flight of the day. Leaving at 538pm. Oh HELL No.
I basically just break down and cry.. (I'm sensitive!). I have a video of me as the only one in the Airport. I'm LIVID and hysterical. Out of this, I ended up getting home at midnight, versus 3pm, and with $100 off my next United flight.
I'm thinking after my free flights, I'll switch to Delta or American...
Until Next Time...
*Keep those tassles twirling!!*
