My flight was booked on Feb. 11/09 from halifax to detroit return on Feb. 20th/09.. I chose United Airlines because of the connecting flight to detroit. When I arrived at the halifax airport discoverd that United Airlines became Air Canada. Different flight number altogether. Arrived in Toronto with the flight to detroit cancelled because of weather.
Wouldn't get out for possibly another full day because of weather, took a bus to London ontario, 90 minute layover till another bus arrived to continue to Windsor Ontario. Had relatives drive for over an hour from Detroit to pick me up at midnight on Feb. 11th Bus fare was $84.00 cdn.
Flight returning was much better but still flying Air Canada from Detroit with different flight numbers than what United booked for me.
I paid US money to fly on a Canadian Airline $113.55 more than I should have paid. If I wanted to fly canadian I would have booked myself onto a canadian airline. And paid cdn money. I have called US airlines and was told nothing could be done, in other words go to hell. They decided to transfer my call, while holding and waiting for another rep to answer. It was 58 minutes later when at that time I realize that no one was going to answer my waiting call.
I feel Riped Off and will advise everyone I know not to fly United Airlines aka Cheapoair. I will never ever fly with this company again.
