Reader Andrew is happy to report that taking advantage air united car hotel miles travel earn flights of Alaska Airline s guarantee that you ll have your bags within 20 minutes air united car hotel miles travel earn flights of landing is pretty painless. His bags didn t show up after 35 minutes and when he called in they gave him a choice of two different we re sorry options.
The airline s website confirms that they have indeed adopted their own version of Domino s old delivery air united car hotel miles travel earn flights guarantee. If the airline flubs up in this way they will either give you 2,000 frequent flyer miles or a $20 discount coupon off a future flight.
That s a cool policy, but the benefit you receive is pretty small. Its equivalent to a company giving you a small-percent off coupon air united car hotel miles travel earn flights for your next purchase. They may not even lose any money off this little arrangement.. the marginal increase in business could offset the discounting they re doing.
It is nice to see that Alaska Airlines is taking responsibility for something. They left me stranded in Cancun a few years ago when a Class 5 hurrcaine was coming and the airport was shut down. They gave no help with new flights out of the city we were being forced to evacuate to. After weeks of asking them to right their wrong, they gave us $50 vouchers for future flights. Their paltry $50 vouchers were a real indication of how they regard their customers.
The hurricane wasn t really the airline air united car hotel miles travel earn flights s fault. Perhaps air united car hotel miles travel earn flights their handling of the situation after the hurricane air united car hotel miles travel earn flights wasn t good enough, but I myself air united car hotel miles travel earn flights wouldn t hold a category 5 hurricane against the airline.
I don t understand what you re saying/typing air united car hotel miles travel earn flights (sorry, I m not trying to be offensive). Without more details all I can decipher is that you sound resentful for being moved to a safer place and out of the way of a hurricane.
air united car hotel miles travel earn flights I flew Alaska Airlines once, my luggage was rolled out on a cart, split open, the zipper broken and unusable. The airline gave us a loaner luggage air united car hotel miles travel earn flights (I do not want to know where it came from) saying they would have it fixed and shipped to our hotel. The next day the luggage was delivered to the hotel, still broken. I told them , they said they would pick it up accept the hotel closed the next day for the season and we left. I finally got a check from them for the broken luggage a month later.
That sounds like a whole mess of your fault. Was your luggage old? Packed WAY too full? I ve traveled a TON, seen people chuck my luggage on the plane, drop it on the tarmac, etc. It has never split open. I have also replaced it when it looks to be getting worn out. Your luggage had to have been pretty shoddy.
i had an old suitcase die on a trip once and i replaced it while i was traveling. the replacement bag made it home and then two years later went on the only other trip of its life, to europe. where it arrived with the wheels broken and the back support panel for the pull out handle cracked in pieces.
Oh I ve had baggage damaged too. Parts dented in, handles ripped, etc. But the ZIPPER air united car hotel miles travel earn flights SPLIT? That sounds like shoddy or old baggage. If you had baggage that was in relatively good shape, air united car hotel miles travel earn flights I doubt that a compacter smashing it flat would rip the zipper. The seams would probably go first. And that would probably only happen in an airport with really extreme amounts of pressure i.e. the airplane backing over it.
Alaska Airlines air united car hotel miles travel earn flights once managed to completely rip the pulley handle out of my carry-on. To be fair, it could have been American air united car hotel miles travel earn flights s fault since my first leg was with them, and they were the ones that made me check it. But, either way, Alaska was cool about it and told me to buy a carry-on the same price as the one damaged and they d refund me. And they did just that!
The cost to check luggage must be so high that there s probably not a whole lot of bags to offload to begin with. And since it s at least 25,000 miles to get a free flight they re really not giving a big inconvenience award. air united car hotel miles travel earn flights Would probably be better to get a voucher for some kind of free food package on the next flight instead of having air united car hotel miles travel earn flights to pay for it if they indeed charge. Having never flown them I don t know.
You can also swing by the baggage service office on your way out of the airport and pick up a certificate with a code to enter on their website, if you don t want to mess around with calling them. I almost never check bags, but the one time I did and they arrived more than 20 minutes after departure, they actually gave me two of those certificates :]
The article is incorrect in regards to claming the miles. According to their website, it says to see an airport agent within 2 hours of the flight s arrival to receive a certificate. I m glad to hear they gave you the miles over the phone but I think it s better to play it safe and follow the rules next time.
