The Best Cheater
purchased ticket in advance to travel homes during the summer vacation. They purchas...ed ticket in advance (6months before) from the Emirates Airlines to travel to Calicut from Doha to escape from the sky rocketing travel fare which usually experiences in the months of June and July in Gulf- Kerala sector. When when it was revealed that the Emirates flight to Calicut International Airport has been cancelled due to the partial closure of the Airport for maintenance, passengers reasonably expect that the Emirate would follow the path of other Airline Companies especially the Saudi Airlines to support the desperate customers. The Saudi Airlines rescheduled and transferred the tickets to the Cochin airport to help the passengers who already purchased ticket from them to travel to Calicut. Passengers expectation was the Emirates will reschedule and transfer the passengers to nearest airports. . The officials at Doha Emirates office acted in most irresponsible and arrogant way when the passengers placed their reasonable demand. Their request was to reschedule and transfer our tickets to nearby airports. Passengers believe that thiet demand was reasonable due to different options available to the Emirate to help the desperate customers. One option is to operate with small flights which have no restriction in Calicut Airport. Second option is to transfer our ticket to nearest Airports such as Cochin, Trivandrum and Bangalore. Third option is to divert the flight which is scheduled to Calicut Airport to the nearest Airport like Cochin, Coimbatore etc:-. Instead of considering passenger's reasonable and justifiable demand, officials at Emirate Doha office demanding to get the ticket refunded and make rebooking by paying current market prize which are not affordable to many. The current market prize is three times higher than the prize in which passengers purchased ticket. Is it a right attitude?
No need to worry about Jamal. The Airport closure order has been withdrawn and postponed to October.
I support Jamal from the core of my heart , Quicky.
Clever idea @ MM.
Jamal is right , they should issue ticket in the exchange .......... no money should be involved ...............
They should refund at the todays market price ................. This is what the passengers need ....................
If the nearest airport in kerala is closed due to maintainance then why you are pointing Emirates though they are ready to refund the amount also. Stop complaining its not emirates fault if the market airfare price is hiked. Every1 in the world is there to make business. Its indian government who should place the notice atleast 6 months in advance so that public and travel agencies are aware that the airport is getting closed for the maintainance work.
