@flycondrair Reason for this route was because of the unrest in the Middle East. Next time it will probably be much safer to travel out normal route through Qatar or Saudi.

@flycondrair @flycondrair giveth then @flycondrair takes away.

[Darren Windle @darrenjwindle]

@flycondrair To then getting a nice gesture from the purser of a bottle of champagne for the problems we had only for it to be taken away going through transit security saying NIT ALLOWED. When we landed back I. LGW we then find out one of our suitcases destroyed an unusable as a suitcase.

[Darren Windle @darrenjwindle]

@flycondrair Spent the next 30 minutes showing the new e-tickets with the prem upgrade and the COMPLETED (Not Provisional) payment from the card used. Finally giving in and taking a seat in Standard Economy to our dismay.

[Darren Windle @darrenjwindle]

@flycondrair Multiple issues, outbound LGW - FRA - BKK not a problem. The return was the experience from hell. Paid all that money for the flight, condor then asks on check-in if you would like to upgrade which we did. Gets to the bag drop to collect our new prem economy tickets to be told NO

[Darren Windle @darrenjwindle]

@flycondrair I have sent a few emails. Maybe they all need to be rolled into a single one.

[Darren Windle @darrenjwindle]

Try to contact @Condor first by WhatsApp, then by phone. Lon hold nearly 15minutes calling from Bangkok. For them not to answer. Eventually get an agent on WhatsApp only for them to say “Email” is what effing planet are you on?

[Darren Windle @darrenjwindle]

@Condor absolutely diabolical. Upgrade using the condor app. Get confirmation that the upgrade was successful. Look on bank statement to see payment HAS been successful. Pack our bags using the “upgraded baggage allowance” get to checkin only for them to say it was revoked.

@LumoTravel how can I amend my seats?

[Darren Windle @darrenjwindle]

@Rachi__01 @grok It’s definitely a Pre-Paid had metre.

[Darren Windle @darrenjwindle]

@TLRailUK I have tried booking directly on Thameslunk, also LNER, Trainline (excuse my manners), and also https://t.co/za6gAPVNIs. Each time I look at booking, no matter who I try, it either says not available or routes me to London Victoria ( Not a good option as I have some very luggage.

[Darren Windle @darrenjwindle]

@TLRailUK I am having issues trying to book Journeys between GTW and NCL via STP. I can get the KGX to NCL but having difficulty for the GTw to STP. We are travelling on 20th Sept.

I thought I hit him so tried to get him to stop instead he just stuck his fingers up. I’m guessing as @NewcastleCC don’t read these nothing will happen to him not even a slap on the wrist. Next time I see him I’ll make sure he is off the road.

[Darren Windle @darrenjwindle]

@NewcastleCC this idiot using a right turn lane to go straight on at Howdon Road. Proceeds to slow down 10mph because I beeped at it. Then as I thought I hit him as he was coming off the roundabout I attempted to get him stopped. He just stuck his fingers up and sped off. 1/2

@SergioG47890462 @3YearLetterman @coachbrucepearl @PearlJam Works out at 4.920 per Gallon in the US. That’s at the price indicated on the picture. Now after Trumps stupidity it more like 7.330 per Gallon.

@HumansNoContext Under the bit that’s covered in black there is a group of islands called the Channel Islands (Jersey, Guernsey, Sark) They are self governed and part of the UK

@NewcastleCC just as I’m pulling into a bay (Front Wheel already entering) this idiot taxi driver decides he would like to use it. Puts his foot down to beat me in causing me to have to brake hard and pull to the side almost hitting the car parked next to me. Remove his license.
