@qatarairways delayed for 6 hours on 20Dec, QR958 from Doha to Jakarta, I lost my connecting flight with @IndonesiaGaruda. Today, at check in counter I was told I cannot use my return ticket, as the 20dec connection was marked no show. #Sofrustrating
@Jerry_QatarRep I had to bear the consequences you caused. I had to buy two tickets now out of my pocket. The ground staff also did not do much help. I was ping ponged. I was told to check w Garuda and Garuda who refused because it was Qatar Airโs problem.
