Here in Shanghai, you scan a QR code before getting on the metro so it knows which train you’re on. Then, if you later get coronavirus, everybody else who scanned the code and was on the same metro as you will be alerted #coronavirus #COVID19

I paid 9500 RMB for a flight with @etihad and now @LYGobal 40 DAYS after @etihad canceled the flight, claims that my refund is only 1800 RMB. This makes no sense, and I'm honestly livid at this point @EtihadHelp !

@etihad I paid 9500 RMB for a return flight ticket and @LYGobal claims that my refund, after you canceled the flight, is only 1800 RMB. Your website claims that customers are entitled to a full refund for canceled flights, can someone explain how this amount makes sense ?

Yesterday I was wearing a mask out and this guy shouted:

"Hey babe can I see your face"

Which underlying issues should we address first in this scenario?

[Kitso Rantao @Kitsorantao]

My flight was canceled on the 10th of February and @LYGobal has still not refunded, over a month later !

[Kitso Rantao @Kitsorantao]

@LYGobal I definitely think that you are doing an absolute disservice to @etihad in providing such a terrible service as a travel agent

[Kitso Rantao @Kitsorantao]

@LYGobal Hi guys ! I am very disappointed with your extremely bad service in dealing with m flight booking with @etihad ! I have been waiting over a month for a refund while your customer service agents have been rude and unhelpful.

Things Covid has proven:

1. The job you were told couldn't be done remotely can be done remotely

2. Many disabled workers could have been working from home, but corporations just didnt want them to.

3. Internet is a utility, not a luxury

4. Universal healthcare is necessary
