My turn for a rant...
Mother fawking, worthless, god damn people.
Had a great vacation in San Diego with the wife and kids, today we were supposed to fly home but all day we kept getting emails saying our flight was postponed later and later. We got to the airport, checked in, and then get an email that they canceled the flight.
I go to the ticketing counter to see what they can do for us, best they can do is get us home Wednesday night with a 9 hour layover in Vegas. I make some phone calls and find a minivan to rent one way to Denver, screw it we'll drive 16 hours home Clark W. Griswold style.
Go to pickup the van, but no they won't give it to us because I refuse to be a slave to debit and I don't own a credit card. It was fine to rent me a fawking car for the last week with just a debit card, but not anymore. Who gives a shit if my credit is over 800. Load the kids up and take a shuttle to the next place, same story. Spend an hour in the parking lot on the phone and everyone is the same, no car with no card. Bullshit.
At this point we are stranded, no flight, no car, no way to get a car.
I logged onto Expedia and started looking for flights, found something for tomorrow, $1800 will get us home tomorrow night, fawk me. We saved for a year to afford a nice vacation now to have to spend another couple grand for no reason sucks major ass.
As of now we found a hotel close to the airport for $200, spent $1800 on another flight, and the in laws get to keep the dogs for another night, the extra day I took off work to decompress after vacation is gonna be burned up as well. The original airline gave us what we originally paid 6 months ago when we bought the tickets, $359 and that was it, didn't even offer a reach around, some lube or even try to get us a room.
Their or story was a flight from Chicago got canceled, which snowballed into our flight from San Diego to Denver being canceled. It's a bunch of bullshit they can't figure out how to bring in a plane from somewhere else.
I get to sit at a hotel all day tomorrow get home more than 24 hours late and $2000 lighter in the wallet, it's a bunch of bullshit that the airline I booked with months ago to ensure my family safe travels basically told me to piss off and gave me my money back.
