So as many of you may know Spencer, Quino and Myself were supposed to be on a plane to Mexico as of 8:20 am this morning. We got up did our thing and even had enough time to pick up Nonno. We get to airport and read the sign that says…Mexico City “N” Gate…which just so happens to be Mexicana. So we stand in the line and get to the lady and guess what;”You are in the WRONG gate”. So Bru, Nonno and I walk with the kids over to Air Canada gate “K” International flights (mind you this was note posted very clearly on the board) We have E-tickets. So how do we know that we’re flying Air Canada? Well we get through the line there and the lady starts chatting my ear off how my Birth Certificate should have my married name on it now. Yadda yadda….”Oh” she says. “This flight is closed.” So I say to Bru as the lady walks over to some short older man in a suit; “What the hell does that mean?” “I don’t know” is Bru’s response. The lady comes back and says “Sorry you can’t get on this flight. You’ll have to purchase another to ticket for another time.” I’m standing there ready to freak and then the lead hand comes over and says matter of factly; “Yeah sorry there’s nothing we can do. The plane is closed.We can’t get your luggage on the plane.” So now I want to knock her block off too. Where the @!#% is the customer service there!!!! So anyways the lady over in the ticket sales ends up being great and asks her supervisor if she can put us on the 7:10pm flight tonite. Our tickets are non-negotiable…and she does it for us anyways…all it cost was an extra 100 bucks!! Why couldn’t they offer to take our luggage on the later flight and allow us to fly on the morning flight? I really am not impressed with AC right now!
Anyways. See you all when we get back. Now I have time to load my ipod with some music and relax on the night flight.
Cheers,
