Terrible Airline Companies

By Jonny Blair


Here are the world's 5 worst airlines to fly with!

1. TACA AIRLINES (PERU BASED)

Taca are from Peru and are a terrible airline company. They messed up our flight and have screwed up a load of other people's flights down the years. The bus would have been faster! They are best avoided!! Avoid using Taca if you are in Peru.

2. JETSTAR (budget airline owned by QANTAS, AUSTRALIA)

You should avoid Jetstar - they are a horrible company with a bad reputation. They often have delayed flights, cancelled flights and never offer any kind of compensation. As companies go they are easily one of the worst out there!!

3. AEROLINEAS ARGENTINAS

OK so I'm including this company but they're the best of this bad bunch to be honest - the onboard stewards were friendly and they eventually sorted me out. BUT here's what they did during the only three flights I took with them:

- on three occasions they changed my flight time

- moved me to a completely different airport in Buenos Aires

- cancelled an entire flight

- delayed the new flight they put me on (refusing to even give me a FREE COFFEE)

- and most ridiculous of all they later scheduled me onto a second flight which would leave before the first flight had landed. Their excuse for this was a computer error.

4. Cathay Pacific Airlines

They lost my bag in 2012 on a long haul flight from Hong Kong to Heathrow. When my bag didn't arrive in Heathrow I had no time to waste as my connection to Belfast City Airport was in 55 minutes so I had no time to even complain. Again I have to thank my girlfriend who sourced my bag in the end. It was still in Hong Kong 3 days later and was found. Cathay Pacific offered NOTHING in compensation, but eventually delivered my bag (safe and sound) to my parents home where I was staying for a week.

5. Cheap Company Air Asia

I hate Air Asia - they are a horrible airline company and I urge you all not to fly with them. The cancelled, delayed, changed lots of my flights down the years. When they did that they didn't even offer an apology or a free cup of tea or coffee. A hotel room would have been nice but we ended up sleeping on the floor at the airport.

- Air Asia are terrible

So fellow travellers, please let me know what airline companies you think are terrible. This is my list of 5 shit airline companies, all from personal travel experiences. I won't be booking with them again or recommending them. And a travel writer and blogger is exactly the person they don't need to upset.

It's a life of ups and downs and I want to give you the good and bad stuff from my journeys.
