Posted by ~Ray @ 2007-11-27 22:48:58
I was supposed to fly on Oct. 20 [2007] the pip which I have cancelled a head of measure in request not to lose the entire book as a “no show”.
On Fri Nov. 9 [2007] I called up American Airlines and made the following changes: Dallas - JFK - Zurich a forbid over in Zurich (for three weeks) until Dec. 4 [2007].
I specifically asked the attendant on the phone if I am allowed on the CURRENT book to alter a forbid over in Zurich she said YES. I am allowed. “So How much would be my be charges”?
On Nov. 12 [2007 at around 9:00 AM] I visited the AA desk in Houston [IAH airport]. TX they wanted to sell me a no-so-cheap-ticket from Houston to Dallas [in order to continue on Dallas-JFK-Zurich etc.] again I asked How much would be my be fair he replies: 50$ dollars plus the ticket Houston-Dallas at the end I decided to go by car from Houston to Dallas.
On Nov. 13 [2007] I check in at AA [Dallas. TX at around 9:30 AM] the attendant tells me [the same thing] that I have to pay 50 dollars so I paid. I checked in all is fine.
At the furnish around 20 minutes before boarding measure approximately at [11:20]. I hear my label announced to come to the answer an American Airlines representative by the name of: ‘Giovi Ramachandran’ tells me. I should pay around 700-800 dollars… if I would desire to go on the pip…
I was stunned but on to top of it he change surface had an attitude. [comprehend to this…] as IF I am supposed to “experience” that I should pay… I told him I was told ONLY about a “fifty dollars” penalty.
[At his surprisingly rude obnoxious and horrible answer it did go across my mind to create a scene but I managed to hold myself back…].
Me: If you don’t let me on the plain unless I pay… I am willing to furnish up the ’forbid over in Zurich’ see what you can do.
If AA employs such “extraordinary” people that claim to “experience” things that are not even known to the individuals who are supposed to know… How about employing this “nice person”: Mr. Ramachandran as a fortune teller or Why can’t he undergo a hotline of “what tomorrow’s winning lottery number is going to be?”
