Bad Airlines To Fly With

By Jonny Blair


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

1. Peru's Taca

Taca Airlines are based in Peru. On my South American trip in 2010 - 2011, I stupidly booked a flight with Taca because the flight was SO CHEAP. They are a real budget airline and I ended up booking a flight from Cuzco to Lima which would have been cheaper and faster than the bus at the time. It wasn't so in the end. They cancelled my flight and refused to put me on another one. A horrible few days of travel

2. Australian Airline Jetstar

Despite initially loving their cheap kick-ass fares, Jetstar quickly proved their lack of customer service to me in 2011. I had started a new job and been lucky to be given a whopping THREE days off in my first month, just so I could fly all the way back to the UK to attend a wedding. One of my best mates as a child was Michael McClelland and so I wanted to be there in Belfast for his big day. It would also be my first time in Northern Ireland for some 800 days - my longest ever time away from my native land. So I booked 2 flights with Jet Star as it was just so cheap even with connections, I then booked another two flights with Air Asia and Easyjet meaning I could get home to Michael's wedding, but would have 4 flights to take, a half day in Kuala Lumpur and a full day in Paris on route. Two cities I'd been to before, but hey I could see family and attend a wedding and keep my job as a school teacher in Hong Kong. All the flights were cheap. All looking good.

3. AEROLINEAS ARGENTINAS

In Argentina I had a nightmare with Aerolineas as they scheduled a flight of mine before the first flight had even left the city the second flight needed to be in, in order for it to arrive on time.

- changed the time of my first flight THREE times

- moved me to a completely different airport in Buenos Aires

- my flight was cancelled

- the next flight was then delayed

- they blamed computer error

4. Airline Company Cathay Pacific

Cathay Pacific managed to lose my bag on a long haul flight then they claimed they had no record of me putting my bag on the flight. Totally crazy experience and no compensation offered when they finally found my bag and returned it to me five days later.

5. Horrible company Air Asia

Air Asia have to be the worst airline company out there. They offer no compensation whatsoever for any kind of cancelled or delayed flight. Not even a free cup of tea and I have been on lots of delayed and cancelled flights from them!

- Never trust Air Asia

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.

So chin up and happy travels and don't let these horrible companies get you down!
