What airline have you had the worst experience with? 😤 I’ll start, I hate @Ryanair. I was supposed to fly with them but the flight was delayed for 5 hours. They owe me €250 in compensation bc of the delay (EU261) but are refusing to pay.

@RyanairPress @Ryanair worst airline imaginable. Ryanair owes me compensation under EU261 and I'm hearing every excuse imaginable from your customer support trying to not pay the money owed. You should be ashamed of yourself. #ryanairishorrible #ryanair

@RyanairPress @travelfusion you're really not a #1 airline, you should be ashamed of yourself actually, more like in the bottom of the gutter.

Europe’s #1 airline 🤝 world’s largest flight distributor.   We’re delighted to announce our new partnership with @travelfusion giving you more places to find low fares.   Read about it here 👇 corporate.ryanair.com/news/ryanair-a…

@transavia is one of the worst airlines w/rude employees. Tho I paid €20 for a carry on, at the gate, was told my bag was TOO BIG. 1st pic of my bag. 3 pics of cabin bag on plane. Had 2 pay €65 to gate check my bag. Want a refund. #transavia

@GWtweets They should be expelled & publicly post their names so no decent company makes the mistake of hiring them. As a school you should be incredibly ashamed for not preventing this. Hope the donors stop the flow of $ as that’s obviously the only way to make the school feel the pain.

What country did you visit more than 3 times?

Think I only fly luxury? Sometimes I fly budget airlines and it can actually be a decent experience. Here’s a @NerdWallet recap of my @vueling flight from Barcelona 🇪🇸 to Amsterdam 🇳🇱 #vueling nerdwallet.com/article/travel…

RANT: Anyone else find it really annoying when a company's "About" page looks like @vueling? Instead of immediately including links about social responsibiliy and sustainability (give me a break), can you just say what you are? Ex: “We are an airline based in XYZ and fly to ABC.”

@Group1Va @united If you really think about it, going through 9,000 bags shouldn’t be difficult. Its been a week. EWR is a major airport that deals w/a lot of volume. Surely there are airport employees who can goto the bags, scan each one & match it to the claims. This just shows #uniteddoesntcare

@themissmiles @united We are in exact same situation. Tues canceled flight EWR, 7 days no bags w/AirTags - Priority tags. Have called @united baggage 800# daily. Found out yesterday it’s a call center in Delhi India. Told there are 9000 backlog bags. I’m losing hope @united

@united why is there no update to my luggage report? Everyday I am told the bag will be on the next day’s flight. I haven’t seen my luggage since TUESDAY, it’s now SUNDAY. What is going on #united? I flew in Polaris and have elite status. Doesn’t that help at all? #unitedairlines

@united Also the baggage team is absolutely useless. I’ve sent a photo of EXACTLY where my bag is per my AirTag. I even shared the terminal location. It’s been 5 days. How long does it take for 1 person to go and get a bag? It’s not brain surgery. #United is simply incompetent.

@united @united but no one answers the phone after being on hold for 2 hours and then it disconnects. If Priority isn’t honored when you need it most, what’s the point?

@united The top priority should be to get bags back to people who flew last week and still don’t have them. I haven’t seen my bag since TUESDAY. it’s SUNDAY. I flew international Polaris business and have status. So priority in this instance (when it actually matters) means nothing.

Getting you on your way safely for the Fourth of July — and for all your summer travels — remains our top priority. ✈️ (5/5)

There has been meaningful improvement across our operation after a challenging week that started with bad weather on the East Coast that caused a major ripple effect throughout our system. (1/5)

I replied.

@united On hold for 2.5 hours and phone disconnected. I need my luggage that I haven’t seen since TUESDAY. It’s FRIDAY. I flew in Polaris business class and my bag was marked “priority” Can someone reply? I’ve sent numerous tweets about this.

@united I flew polaris business class, and my luggage was marked "priority" yet its been more than 3 days that I've been without my luggage. I've already sent numerous tweets. Why is no one helping?!

@united I have been without my luggage since Tuesday. It is now Friday. Its still at the original airport I have an AirTag in my bag and can see exactly where it is. Can someone please help? #united

@united why is no one replying about my lost luggage? I was on hold twice for 30 minutes and the phone disconnected. I’ve been without my stuff for 48+ hours.
