Etihad Airways lost and found

Hello team,

This is Gulafsha here. Complaining about my goods (a mobile phone) which I forgot on board. It has been more than 3 months now...

I request you to please take at least some serious actions and check at least once. I forgot my phone in the seat pocket of your plane.

My phone is there. It has business details since I am a working woman. I request you to please show some courtesy to check and then reply me.

I hope you would understand my situation. This is really tough for me. Please let me know if you need some amount to give my phone worth 25, 000 back to me.

Regards,
Gulafsha

Etihad Airways airline

My daughter, Celestine Chun Wei Ting was booked on 3 September (EY473) (reservation code HKWHXM), to London via Abu Dhabi Airport.

During the flight from Abu Dhabi to London (EY11) her seat - 62G could not recline. I understand that the stewardess tried to push down the seat but could not as well.
Hope the stewardess had reported the faulty seat.

This meant that my daughter, on her 7+ hour to London was seated upright instead of reclining to get some sleep.

She is returning on EY12 on 18 September to Abu Dhabi before taking the flight to Singapore.

For the great discomfort on the forward journey to London, please advise if there is any service recovery you could provide on her trip home?

A upgrade would be splendid.

Thank you.

Etihad Airways twice paid the same ticket-request refund

I paid for the return ticket Beg-KUL that was presented to me before the money transfer(OBZKI7). When I paid, I got a ticket with an extra stop. I didn't want to react to that unfair move, believing that only possible flights were being sold.
At Kuala Lumpur I was forbidden to board a Phuket plane because the airport does not offer a transfer option that does not require a visa to Thailand.
The only solution was to buy a new ticket that was 770usd at the time of pre-flight purchase( LFHMWX).
I demand that Etihad refund my money. Etihad exposed me to a lot of stress, which was quite unnecessary before long flight from KL to Belgrade.
I request that you reimburse me 770 usd appropriated by you. Etihad did not come to the end point that it needed to charge me twice.
Let me remind you what I paid

There were no attempts to resolve the case. Just an explanation that it had to be that way, for no reason.
That I had to be taken off the flight without my fault and financial compensation. Horror!
Shame on the Etihad
A very violent business. I hope travelers recognize the unprofessionality.

Dec 13, 2019 1:21 pm EST

Please tell me what was my fault that resulted that I had to buy a new 770usd ticket instead of the one I already had. When you explain this to me, I will find that Etihad is not guilty for my stress and financial loss.
Now, I think that you blame your company.
For me the case is not closed.

Dear Nic,
Etihad's answer is an empty story that is without facts. Which is my fault for being punished for having to buy a new ticket?
1.Etihad sold me one ticket first and gave me another one (stopover is a minus for the ticket price and this must be shown before payment).
2, Etihad sold me a ticket that is impossible for me.
3. Etihad exposed me to stress a before long trip by bringing me back from the road ahead
4. What would happen if I didn't have money for a new ticket 11000 km from home?
5. A month from the trip Etihad is corresponding with me buying time.
What are your facts? You are talking that I have to pay Etihad the ticket twice?
Is there a solution for refund or it is normal for Etihad to take money twice for the same route to the same person?

Update by Ana Velimirovic
Sep 10, 2019 3:48 am EDT

Dear Nic,
I was communicated with by Abderrahim Moutaouakil at email address feedback@etihad.ae asking me to reimburse the cost of an Etihad cod share company that was supposed to operate one fifteenth part of the flight . I paid the ticket for Etihad to realize and I hold him responsible for the damage, and I ask Etihad for compensation.
Let "an agreement between two airlines" stay between you and the operating air carrier.
I request that you reimburse me 770 usd appropriated by you. Etihad did not come to the end point that it needed to charge me twice. This is unscrupulous harassment and bad evaluation of the passengers' intelligence.
I hope that you are in a position to solve the problem.
Ana

Etihad Airways my daughter's journey from kochi (kerala), india to birmingham.

My daughter had booked a flight through Etihad Airways, recommended by me. I work in KSA and frequently use Etihad airways for my journey to KSA.
Her ordeal began on the early hours of 31st August. Her booking code being QAUOBB.
At the outset the checking clerk did not know about her VISA status, as she had a stop over in Dublin. After waiting for for more than one hour, the booking clerk issued her 2 boarding pass, one from kochi to AUH and the other from AUH to Dublin. When enquired, the clerk told her the boarding to Birmingham will be issued in Dublin.
On arrival in Dublin the immigration officer told her to collect her baggage and check in again, Valuable time was lost during the process. The baggage handling clerk told her that it has already being transferred to AER LINGUS flight to Birmingham. By the time she reached the check in counter, the AER LINGUS flight had left for Birmingham.
She had to pay an extra 75 euros for the next flight to Birmingham. Upon arrival in Birmingham she lost her luggage. She got it on the third day.
My daughter suffered a lot because of misinformation. Travelling alone and being a lady, I don't have to elaborate on the lost luggage, and ordeal she underwent with no spare dress for the cold weather in Birmingham.
Please be kind enough to instruct your staff at the various check in counters to provide the right information to passengers travelling with multiple stop overs.
Thank you,

Etihad Airways bad behavior

Dear Etihad Airways

Please be informed that I am a frequent flyer with Etihad airways.
Silver Member - Since July 2018 / No: [protected]

Date of Incident is 31 August 2019 at King Abdul Aziz international airport

Approximately every two months I go to China via your airline in Business Trip.
Unfortunately this time an incident has arouse.
I have booked one way to China as I have a long business trip and I don't know exactly when I will return because I have many things to do it.
But in the airport the clerk made me pay 5000 sr in cash over the amount I paid which is way expensive as I usually pay around 5000 sr only for return ticket.

He insisted that I pay or else I don't board the plane.

I requested an invoice with the payment I paid but he refused and make me waiting ti before the boarding come to close.

I am shocked with such a behavior as this is not how things are done in Etihad airways.

Please check the situation and get back to me as soon as possible. "Ticket Ref.

Etihad Airways cabin crew service

On flight EY10 from London to Abu Dhabi on Sunday 1st September :
Cabin Crew Julia was so incredibly rude to me I ended up in tears
1. She refused me a snack when hungry, I only asked politely if I might have some crackers, she said there was nothing so I said ok and waited for the second meal to come
2. She ignored my call button for such a long time, around 15/20 minutes, that I ended up getting up and walking to the back where she was stood doing nothing
3. I asked for a drink, well over an hour before the flight was over, & she told me the bar was closed already, (another of the cabin crew said that was not the case)
4. She then came over and in a very aggressive manner asked me what my problem was, I asked her for her name & said I wasn't happy with her service and tried to take a picture of her for this complaint, so I could prove who she was, she told me it was illegal to take pictures and stormed off
5. She sent her superior cabin crew (i didn't get her name) to speak to me, telling me to delete the picture, (which I did after she threatened me with security) and this person said that they would speak to her about it all, and asked if I was still hungry which I was not by this time
However I did not feel that this was adequate, hence writing this complaint. Julia was mean, rude, unfriendly, unprofessional and I don't think she should be working in the service industry as she clearly doesn't like helping people.
I hope she is disciplined and removed before she has someone else crying in the bathroom after how she treated them, which is what happened to me today.
With Many Thanks & Warmest Regards,
Leagha McMahon

Etihad Airways Etihad guest partner miles still & always missing

Dear All,

I believe there is a serious problem in the relationship between Etihad Guest and it's partners, whether they are airlines, rental cars, etc.

Every time the average lead time to get miles credited (ie. Alitalia, SriLankan, Malaysian, Czech Airlines, Budget, RentalCars.com) is approximately 6 months.
None has ever been credited below 4 months of waiting. Why is this?
The only ones credited in a short time are Etihad flights and codeshares.

At the moment I have the following cases open and I don't want them to drag on till 2020 like all the previous cases. Can you do something about it?

INTR:[protected] - not yet credited from July 2019 : 2 flights on SriLankan Airlines
INTR:[protected] - not yet credited from April 2019 : 1000 Bonus points from Budget first time rental.

One question, does top management at Etihad have any idea how long customer claims are open for?

Best regards,
Christian F.

Etihad Airways airline passenger assistance

We had to travel from Lahore, Pakistan to Ottawa Canada. We requested for wheelchair assistance and were travelling through business class. On Toronto airport, we had to change flight from etihad to air canada for commencing ottawa journey. There was no wheelchair assistance provided and we were asked to collect the baggage and re-book again on aircanda by ourselves. We booked the flight through etihad and they never mentioned that there will be no such facility available on Toronto airport. It took us 3 hours to do these things and change the terminal. This is highly disappointing to see such an unprofessional attitude of etihad airways.

Etihad Airways changing the tickets from the booked flights to another multiple carriers. long delay and irresponsible behaviour by etihad.

To,

The Managment/ Customer Service Desk of Etihad Airways

Ethihad Airways, UAE.

Sub: Compensation claim for the financial loss, mental stress, losing self esteem and the sufferings faced due to the most atrocious act by the Etihad Airlines to myself and my family. Immediate response & action required.

Dear Sir,

I, Haris Kuruvangadan is writing this letter to the management with the highest concern on my recent experience with ethihad airways. The intention of writing this letter is to explain how the Ethihad Airlines has gifted me a helish travel experience on my recent travel to Riyad from calicut and to claim my compensation from the airways. Please note that I demand an immediate response and action on this mail as any delay will push me to take this matter to the Consumer Courts of India and Saudi Arabia.

I am living in Riyad, Saudi Arabia with my family for the last 14 years. My family consists of my wife and 3 children of age 8, 6 and 2 respectively. Every year we plan our vacation to our native in India in the month of June. As our plans are fixed, we always book our tickets well in advance and this time also for our return travel to Riyad from Calicut on 19/Aug/2019, We have booked our tickets on 14/03/2019 itself. The objective of booking the tickets well in advance is to have a trouble free and smooth travel with the family.

My return flight to Riyad was booked on EY 251 which was scheduled to take off from Calicut at 4.40 AM on 19/Aug/19. As we had to catch an early morning flight and had to do the check in 3 hours prior to the flight timings and since had 5 hours drive to the airport, we had started to the airport with the luggage on the previous day after noon and while we were ont he midway to calicut airport around 4.00 PM on 18/Aug we have received the message through the agent saying that our flight schedule is changed and the new flight is at 11.20 AM on 19/Aug. This was a shocker as the delay was for more than 7 Hours and we had to do plan our stay in calicut. As it was the last minute room hunting we had to pay higher prices for the room in calicut.

After reaching the airport on the morning of 19/Aug we have understood that our travel is arranged in Air India Airlines (Flight number : AI 0937 at 11.20 Hrs ) and have a connection flight to Riyad from Dubai in Saudi Airlines (SV 0559 at 16.00 Hrs). We were also shocked to know that the EY 251 was taken off at the right time on 19th Aug itself and only our seats were shifted to other airlines as the flight was over booked. This was highly disappointing as the Ethihad airlines has decided to move the tickets of a family who had booked the tickets well in advance ( 4 months before) and also has 3 children out of which 1 is an infant.

We were instructed to collect our luggage from the Dubai airport and were asked to do the re-check in to the Saudi airlines from Dubai.All we had was hardly 2 hours between two flights and there was no one from EY to guide us or assist us at the Dubai airport. After reaching Dubai airport which is totally a new airport for me and my family we had to undergo immense mental strain to get through the re-checkin process and luggage collection. Due to the long delayed travel our kids have suffered a lot and all of us were mentally and physically tired. Due to this multiple airlines we had to complete the immigration process in Dubai to collect the luggage, but as there was no Dubai Visa with us, we had to depend on Marhaba agency to get the luggage process completed and as the service charge we had to pay Marhaba agency 420 Dhirhams.I was not carrying Dirhams and had to use my personal card to swipe in the money. Still after reaching Riyadh, Saudi Arabia at 17.00 Hrs, our luggage were not sent in the same flight. Our luggage reached only after 3 flights and we all had to wait for another 6-7 hours to get our luggage from the airport. By the time we collected the luggage the Taxi/Cab service driver whom I have booked to take us to our house from the Riyadh airport left the airport as he was not ready to wait for so many hours and we had to pay him in full amount as the delay was from our side. As the luggage was not with us we had no clothes to change and our kids were wearing the same soiled clothes for almost 24 Hours.

Initially when we got the message from Ethihad airways about the change int he flight and timings we contacted your Customer care executive Ms. Anju in Kerala and she has completely washed off her hands saying its the Airport Authority's decision to change our flights.It was completely a false claim and Airport Authority did confirmed to us then and there itself that its the decision of the Airlines to change the Airlines and timings .

I have the following questions to be asked to the management of Ethihad Airways:

1. Why have you decided to move our family tickets booked in EY to multiple carriers with a delayed schedule?

2. Why EY has not communicated to us directly and why there was no explanation given to us by the airways ?

3. Why there no assistance provided to us at calicut airport, Dubai Airport and Riyad Airport despite being aware that we are travelling with the small kids and the entire travel plan was changed by EY without our consent?

4.. Was it not very clear that 3 kids of Age 8, 6 and 2 were with us?

5. Why was it informed only just before 10 Hours before the original departure time?

6. How are you going to compensate the mental stress my kids have gone through for more than 20 Hours?.

7. How did you expect a family with 3 small kids to clear the immigration in Dubai without proper visa and do a re-checkin into a different airlines at a airport which is very vast and totally new to us?

8. How did you expect a woman to handle 3 kids alone at worlds busiest airport when her husband has to run around to complete the travel process? Still why was no assistance provided to us by EY team even after making our travel a complex one?

9. What we should have done if incase we could not complete the re-checking process on time and if we would have missed the flight? Who would have hold responsible if Dubai immigration team has taken action on us for staying more than 5 hours in that country without approval documents?

10. How will you compensate the mental stress and physical stress Myself, My WIfe and kids have gone through for more than 20 Hours starting from Kerala?

11. What about the direct financial loss we incurred?

12. What about the last minute staying arrangement we had to hunt in Kerala near the calicut airport for a family?.

13. What food & stay arrangements have you done for our family when the flight was delayed for more than 6 Hours from the starting point.?

14. What arrangement have you done for my wife and kids for changing the clothes and essential requirements of ladies when we had to wait for a such long time in dubai and in saudi Airport for the luggage.?

15. Who will compensate for the extra cab payments we had to do in Riyad?

16. How will you compensate the 7 hours delay at Riyad Airport for waitng the luggage?

17. Who will compensate for the loss of an extra leave at office and also for the damage of self respect and reputation for not reporting back on time at office after the vacation?

As a compensation for the above mentioned mental and physical torture and stress my kids and wife suffered, the metal stress, loss of self respect, loss of reputation, loss of time I have personally suffered and the direct financial losses we have incurred, I demand a compensation of 18350/- Saudi Riyals ( INR 3, 50, 000/-) at the earliest. This is inclusive of the direct financial losses which we have suffered by paying for the stay at calicut, food and beverages, luggage fees at Dubai, Cab service at Riyad, Essential clothes for the kids etc.

I request your assistance for an immediate response and action.

Awaiting for your positive response.

Attaching the originally booked tickets by self and second one ( Air India + Saudi Airlies) is the one Etihad altered and rescheduled without my consent .

Regards,

Haris Kuruvangadan

Etihad Airways ticket refund problem

Good Day Sir/Madam,
I, Taimoor Khan Ghauri booked Etihad Airways on 8th May 2019, having booking reference number T9WGPP. I availed the ticket from Pakistan to singapore on 15th May 2019. For return flight, I informed my travel agent and also to Etihad Airways, well in time before departure of flight, that I was unable to fly back to Pakistan, due to my course extension in Singapore.
Now, I want the refund of my return ticket. I have contacted Etihad Singapore Office, and they told me to contact my travel agent. My travel agent is saying that, refund is not possible.
Kindly look into the matter. For your reference, I am attaching my E-ticket.
Hoping for your kind and generous response.

Hi,
I have received a voucher just because of the inconsistency i had faced coz of over booking. Today its been almost 5 months now but they haven’t send me the money that they supposed to give me with in a week. Moreover whenever we call for some updates they tell us that it will that at least 3 week more and they can do nothing. This is my second complaint, i have to complain because they don't answer us back for the mail when we are expecting any answers/query. I think it not worthy after take over Jet airlines.

Etihad Airways 200 people stranded for 24 hours with flight, delay by etihad, without accomodation false promises by step no lounge access

PNR CZWAJB
Delhi to chicago

Every passenger on this flight feels cheated.
No matter what Etihad cannot do this to passengers and it is highly recommended from each passenger not to travel ever witj Etihad.
Even the staff and their behaviour in this disruption scene was ruthless as if they are least bothered and arguing to each customer leading to heated discussions.

Etihad Airways refusal to return points to american express account

On or about June 6 2019, I contacted Royal Air Moroc to inquire about using American Express Business Platinum Points for a trip from Washington D.C. to Casablanca in october 2019. I was told by Royal Air Moroc representative that I should transfer point to Etihad from American Express and Etihad would book flight to Casablancea on their partner Royal Air Moroc. This apparently was a very common thing to do and there would be no problems. I wanted to make sure this was the procedure because apart from this trip to Morocco, I as a rule would not be flying to other Etihad destinations.. I contacted Etihad and confirmed with Etihad that this was correct, i.e transfer points from AmEx to Etihad, Etihad would then book flight to Casablanca, no problem. I then transfer 100000 points to Etihad the for which I had spent o$100000 US dollars. I called Etihad and tried to book flight having first made sure there was availability on flight I wished to take. When I called Etihad, they said that Air Moroc had not released flights yet and I should call back. I did so 4 times. Finally I was told there was no possibility to book the flights. I asked for my points back and I was refused. Etihad has essentially taken 100000 in points from me that will never be used by giving me incorrect information. I would not have transferred points if I had any idea this could happen. I want my points to be returned to my American Express Account. I look forward to a response
