AirTran Airways
Poor customer service

I'm a frequent flyer. I'd to see AirTran in 2002 after I got a trip from Ny (LaGuardia) to Kansas City, MO. I had been truly dissatisfied, but a couple of months later chose to "provide it another attempt" so that as I'd to create an urgent situation visit to Minnesota, required AirTran again. It had been a pleasant encounter till a week ago after I recognized the first impact was therefore accurate, and that I TOTALLY lost my religion within the flight. I arranged a trip on line (www.airtran.com) from Minneapolis, MN to California, DC (DCA) having a layover in Atlanta, GA for 45 units for my spouse. We'd a global trip from California, DC the following day. The trip was postponed from Minneapolis for just two hours. The main reason suggested about the displays at St. Paul Airport stated there is specialized problem using the plane. It came late at Minneapolis. After I named the Airtran hotline, I had been on-hold for an hour or so being guaranteed "somebody is likely to be along with you briefly", then I had been disconnected (I invested 1 time and 3 minute about the telephone), I called again, waited for another 38 units - spoke to some consultant. This is actually the info I obtained from her: The trip was postponed because of climate conditions in Atlanta. Although when he came in Atlanta, the current weather was good-and all of the routes were departing promptly. The initial trip he was designed to consider Atlanta - California (National Airport) left only 20 minutes before he arrived in Atlanta. After I spoke towards the consultant within the telephone, she stated that they might not wait that trip!!! Although I had been searching the trip info on Airtran web site, I came across another trip Atlanta - Washington DC (Dulles Airport) which was being postponed aswell, also it WAS however in the entrance when my partner got as much as the Client Service Stay. The consultant about the telephone hot line stated that there have been chairs staying about the trip to Dulles airport and theer was a different one to Baltimore, doctor. Or he might remain in Atlantais airport overnight and keep for DCA the following day. They certainly were the two optons directed at us! Noone actually mentionedthe trip to Dulles airport! Only if I told the consultant there is a late trip - right in the entrance where the Client Support stay (entrance C15 in Atlantais airport!!!) When he was speaking with me, he appeared to be useful. Actually (that's what my partner explained later) when he got as much as entrance C15, they declined to consider him up to speed and released the boarding pass for that next day! And that's after I Have invested so enough time ans work to describe the problem to everyone, but noone could hear??? I Spoke to that particular guy again, he ultimately strolled my spouse up tothe trip to Baltimore (btw, it's a-50 mile generate one way from california DC where I stay to Baltimore, also it was in the centre of the night time!), AND he requested for guidelines from my spouse (this really is excessively improper!!! And it is completely unacceptable!) My questions are (and that I truly want to notice the solutions before I move ahead) 1) why was not it feasible to wait theflight Atlanta - California (DCA) for 20-25 minutes? You'd the reservation and understood there is a connecting traveler, esp. If there have been climate conditions? 2) another late trip to California (IAD). Why was not it feasible to place the traveler onto that trip if there have been oceans accessible? 3) there is no compensation whatsoever! When the traveler needs to remain in the airport for over 10 hours? Which is NOT his problem that there "were climate conditions". Have you got any standard statement in the climate providers? It looked like all of the airplanes were making promptly from Atlanta however for these several trip which were postponed? Or could it be just how of conversation with clients - supplying them using the WRONG info for that benefit of the flight??? Even if the flight did a benefit - and set him onthe trip to BALTIMORE, how was he designed to get from there to Washington DC at 2 AM? 4) that will be just-so frustrating and frustrating, extremely improper, rude and undesirable inCustomer Support - why can you request a (non verbally, simply having a motion, but nonetheless!) for tips! You're being taken care of your work, and really should be providingcustomer support. Exactly what the administration group needs to claim about that? Does it opt for the "Your objective statement sets the conventional to "Function As The Greatest" in anything we do every single day: Revolutionary people focused on providing the best traveling expertise to wise tourists. Every single day."??? These?

Exactly What The airline said?

Like A motion of good-will, I've approved a $50.00 vacation discount which may be utilized towards any potential AirTran Airways flight reservation.

In reaction to your email, the main reason you're not able to discover routes between your towns you're touring is basically because our trip support to North Park is usually run between spring and drop; the support stopped at the conclusion of April and certainly will reunite on May 27. Your decision to use this path seasonally was produced in thought of numerous factors.

Free journey is non transferable. It may just be properly used on AirTran and from the individual suggested about the voucher

Not really if it's my spouse, and even though the codeshare flight (frontier) has got the routes towards the location I have to be-at!

What's $50 after I discuss nearly $200 allocated to a taxi, sleepless night of course if not a missed worldwide trip (over $1100 value)?
