I should point out that US Air put us in a Ramada in Philly for our night. Could have been worse I guess...
When we got into the hotel the bartender could tell what airline you'd been on based on how angry you were. My friends and I walked in and he yelled "US AIR!"... -Curt Date: Tue, 23 Feb 2010 12:03:33 -0500 From: "Dillon, Meade M CIV SPAWARSYSCEN-ATLANTIC, 53310" <meade.m.dil...@navy.mil> To: "Mercedes Discussion List" <mercedes@okiebenz.com> Subject: Re: [MBZ] Hendrik and Co coming to the US of A in June Message-ID: <1370e90cffd2ac4b8cb65267ba10c4b801db9...@naeachrlez02v.nadsusea.nads.navy.mil> Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Service on all U.S. airlines has declined significantly in my opinion, by which I mean that they'll charge you for food, for bags, for changing your itinerary, and when they wrong you they are generally unwilling to 'make amends'. If you suffer a 'weather delay' which really inconveniences you, for instance you've checked your bags and cannot retrieve them but must wait overnight for the flight, expect to have to be very firm (always polite of course) about asking directly for a tooth brush etc. and don't hesitate to elevate up the chain of command. Sadly the "Traveler's Aid" desks are becoming more and more important in America - years ago the airlines would provide overnight lodging in such a situation. -Max _______________________________________ http://www.okiebenz.com For new and used parts go to www.okiebenz.com To search list archives http://www.okiebenz.com/archive/ To Unsubscribe or change delivery options go to: http://okiebenz.com/mailman/listinfo/mercedes_okiebenz.com
