RECENTLY I HAD A VERY BAD EXPERIENCE WITH EMIRATE AIRLINE, AND
PROBABLY IT IS THE FIRST TIME I HAVE GONE THROUGH THIS BITTER TIME. I
TRAVELED FROM MY HOME COUNTRY TO CANADA THROUGH DUBAI AIRPORT VIA
FRANKFURT. THE PLANE WAS LATE AT DUBAI, AND EVEN IT GOT MORE LATE
REACHING FRANKFURT AIRPORT, WHERE WE WERE SUPPOSED TO CONNECT TO
AIR-CANDA, WE MISSED THE FLIGHT, THE PASSENGERS WHO MISSED THEIR
FLIGHT TO CANADA WERE 34. BUT NO BODY TOOK THE RESPONSIBILITY FOR
THIS, ACCORDING TO EMIRATE THEIR FLIGHT ENDED AT FRANKFURT AND
AIR-CANADA TOLD THAT THESE PEOPLE ARE NOT YET THEIR PASSENGER. SO NO
HOTEL STAY, NO ASSURANCE FOR THE NEXT FLIGHT. ANYHOW WE ALL WERE GIVEN
ONE OPTION TO TRAVEL TO LONDON, THEN TORONTO THEN TO CALGARY, AND
THERE WAS ALMOST 8 HOURS OR SO TRANSIT AT EACH LOCATION, IMAGINE IT
TOOK DOUBLE THE TIME TO REACH THE DESTINATION AND WITHOUT ANY REST,
JUST SITTING ON THE CHAIRS AND WAITING FOR THE FLIGHTS, HOW HORRIBLE
THIS EXPERIENCE WAS. IN FUTURE I WILL THINK TWICE BEFORE TRAVELLING BY
EMIRATES.
