I haven’t gotten to roast @AmericanAir for a while, mostly because I don’t fly them unless I have to.
Last week I am flying from DCA to MIA, with about 2.5 hours for a connection.
The flight left on time and was due early, then the Miami airport suddenly wouldn’t let some planes land.
We circled but then because AA always cuts it close, we were out of fuel and forced to land in PBI.
They say we are going to refuel and head to Miami within the hour.
What they meant to say was over 3.5 hours of delays, no fuel truck, tarmac holds, etc
But good news! My connection is two hours delayed I might make it!
We land in Miami within 30 minutes to go.
No gate
20 minutes to go
they cannot connect jetway to plan due to equipment in the way.
10 min to go, jump off plane first, gate agent calls ahead to let my plane know I’m coming
On the plane and previously at the gate, my two daughters are also telling the gate I’m on the airport on the way.
No on cares. Flight attended tries to stall but gate agent angrily rebuffs.
I roll up 4 minutes after she closed the door after 4 hours of delay.
Gate agent angrily rebuffs “the plane left a while ago”
Me “I’m gonna need you to turn around then cause there’s a plane still here (it has not left gate yeth
She argues with me, points where the rebooking desk is nothing else
Nobody at this airline gives a rats ass about their customers
Every time America is on the verge of greatness, we get involved in another foreign war.
There would not be bombs falling on the people of Israel if Netanyahu had not dropped bombs on the people of Iran first.
Israel is a nuclear armed nation.
This is not our fight.
Peace is the answer. 🙏
