Air Asia Complaints & Reviews

I had booked two tickets from www.Airasia.com from mumbai to kualalumpur.

Due to medical problem i was not able to go so they asked me to provide doctor's letter.I provided the same even after that they didn't refund the amout.
Don't book tickets with these cheaters as they have not any refund policy they'll take your full amount.Stick to your india airlines only.Atleast you can rely on them.

I booked a flight via the AirAsia website from Tokyo Haneda to Kuala Lumpur (Booking number E1T6QY).

I selected the option to Supersize my baggage and opted for the Xtra Large option which allows upto 30Kg per passenger for a fee of 4,000Yen (around 50USD) per person.

After making the booking and the payment by card I realized that I might not require 30 Kg per passenger (total 3 passengers) and modified my booking to reduce the baggage allowance to Large (2 passengers) and Medium (1 passenger).

The difference in the amount was 11,000 Yen (around 135USD) and was expecting this amount to be refunded. But to my surprise AirAsia did not refund the amount but in the amended booking showed the 11,000Yen as Spoilage Fee.

I did not understand what the Spoilage Fee was about and called the Call centre in Tokyo and explained my problem. The agent informed me that there will be no refund.

It's outrageous that AirAsia allows downsizing the baggage but not refunding the excess amount. I checked their Terms and Conditions and there is no mention of No Refund for baggage change.

I was not aware that AirAsia was a fraud of a company until I chanced on this website and saw the numerous Customer complaints. Looks like AirAsia does not give a damn about the Customer.

Dear Sir/Madam.

We had booked our tickets in Air Asia on 11-Aug-2010 (booking confirmation emails ) from Bangalore to Bali (layover in KUL) for 02-Sep-2010 (Thursday). Upon our arrival in the Bangalore International Airport and to our shock we were not allowed to board the flight with the Air Asia staff telling us, "We cannot allow you to board since you do not have a VALID Malaysian VISA. There has been a recent change (effective 15-Aug-2010) in Malaysian Immigration process which doesn't allow us to get a transit VISA on arrival."

It came as a huge blow to us. We were all packed and booked but had nowhere to go.
There was absolutely NO communication from your airlines staff to intimate us on this recent change in regulations on transiting in Kuala-Lumpur.
As a result of this we had to face bitter disappointment of not being able to travel and also lose the entire money which we spent for our accommodation & activities booking in Bali (our end destination).

Could you advise us the next source of action?
The best solution for us would be a refund of the entire booking amount which alleviate our current financial losses arising from this situation.

Also do suggest other options that you can recommend to us.

Thanks & Regards,

Dear Sir,

This is in reference to the Booking Number D3R8TS, I booked the Ticket from New Delhi to Kaula Lampur for my family under the promotional scheme today. The original itenerary booked online by me is from Ist of May'2011 to 9th of May'2011, but to my shock after making the payment I observed that the return date is same as of Departure Date i.e. Ist May'2011.

I contacted Air Asia cusomer care office and advised by them to book another return ticket, which I booked for 9th again. The new return ticket Booking No is D6GJGJ.

Now my humble request to Air Asia is to look this matter seriously and generously and cancel the return booking of Ist May'2011 and credit the refund in my credit card. I am confident that no amount will be deducted and 100% amount related to return ticket value will be credited to me.

I am not aware of how the Dates have been clashed (Same day departure & return) during the online booking of the tickets but penalsing with entire fare of about Rs.16000.00 is not getting down well with me. I booked the tickets just because of pormotional scheme launched by the Air Asia and I found it affordable. But if I will be penalised for the clerical error than whole concept of getting the cheaper ticket will be defeated.

Confident that matter will be solved in my favor.

Deepak Khurana

This is the detailed conversation between my travel agent and Air Asia personals..............but nothing has been done till now and the amount has not been refunded to my credit card..............My contact no. is [protected]............

Dear sir I was booked a ticket to melbourne Australia on 10 June 2010. Because my visa problem I can,t fly to the destination. The cost of the ticket is RM 1,900. The air asia never give me a time to change the date of ticket or destination. When I went to the immigration of australia the said the approve for the visa will take nearly three weeks. Its no point go to Australia anymore. The program I have attend is over. If go to same destination I have more money and I am nothing to do there. Thats the reason I am asking to chenge my destination to chennai India. but they reply me there rule regulation. So now my money just like that only. this something cheating my money.
thank you

Lack of AirAsia Support service at Trivandrum AirportFriday, April 9, 2010 10:15 AMFrom: "kanavila Sudhir" <[protected]@yahoo.com>Add sender to ContactsTo: [protected]@airasia.comCc: [protected]@singnet.com.sgHello there,


I am writing in to highlight my recent confusion and disappointment with AirAsia with regards to my booking of flight to Singapore from Trivandrum via Kuala Lumpur.



On 23 March 2010, I had made an online booking for four guests to depart Trivandrum and reach KL on 6 April 2010.

The booking number is O65HBE.


In the same online transaction, I made a similar booking to leave KL on 6 April 2010 to reach Singapore on the same day.
The booking number is C75JCI.



The online transactions were successful and together with my family, I made the trip down to Trivandrum International Airport.



I was shocked when I was told off by the officer from AirAsia at the Trivandrum International Airport that because I did not have a Malaysian Visa, I will not be able to travel on my previous bookings. I was caught by surprise and explained the rationale that I understand my family and I to be considered 'n transit' in KL as Singapore was my destination. I was to only spend 5 hours in KL aiport with my family before taking another flight to SIngapore. I had also applied for relevant Singapore tourist visas and ensured that the trip was to be a smooth one.


I was extremely disappointed to be told this, at the airport itself as I took it upon myself to read all the necessary regulations and flight details on the AirAsia website when I was making my online transaction of the bookings. In total, I had spent 44,145 IN Rupees and 992 Malaysian Ringgit for the two trips that my family and I was suppose to made. In the end, I had no choice but to make another flight booking with SilkAir for a direct flight to Singapore which cost my family and I, a total of INR70,816 IN Rupees. I can provide the necessary flight booking details and information if required.



I have since called the AirAsia office in SIngapore to explain my disappointment and they have directed me to send an email to this address. I am genuinely hoping for some clarification and possible compensation/refund because I was only told of the need for a Malaysian Visa at Trivandrum Airport itself when I understood my family and I to be 'on transit' in KL for 5 hours before making the trip to Singapore. This unpleasant incident has left me extremely upset and I do think it is the role of the airline to highlight such details when I was making the online transaction for the booking of the flights.



My trip to Singapore has been marred by this incident and I do hope necessary action can be taken to prevent such unfortunate accidents to occur again.



I can be contacted in Singapore at[protected] till 13 April 2010 and can be contacted in India at +[protected].



Thank you.

Govindan Sudhir

Hello, everyone! I was so angry and have no place to shout my angryness !!!

I have an urgent business meeting thus I would like to change my flight ealier back to KL.

I was trying to change my flight schedule through their oficial website (www.airasia.com.my). Due to the sloe internet connection in town (it's not a big city), some connection error occurred thus I submit and rerfill the information few times. Anyhow, after certain try, the record LOCKED !!! I call the service centre to ask for solutions BUT there are no ppl picking up the phone, I was holding the line for 20 minutest for each calls. After perhaps 1 hour, finally someone picking up the phone, I ask for solutions, they come back with the ans :"Sorry madam, once the record LOCKED, its LOCKED, you're NOT able to change anything online ANYMORE, you have to change at the airport counter/sales office/via phone, BUT we'll charge the prices HIGHER!!!

OMG, I was like...shocked and nothing to say coz I explained to him that today is SATURDAY, the nearest sales office are closed and the airport are REALLY far far away. Can he just help me unlocked so I can settle all this at home (at very efficient, reasonable and convenience way). He replied that :" sorry madam, We're unable to UNLOCKED it, either you pay higher price to change the schedule or stick with the purchased date."

I am so angry so I send lots of complaint letter to air asia online, HOWEVER, there're NO response at all. Obviously, they didn't treat the passangers well. Air Asia with Good Service, NO WAY !!!

Sir,
I worked in a above mentioned company for 7 months. My Doj is during August 2007. Relieving Date is March 2008. I got the PF amount Rs.1700 only. Office Deducted Rs.480 every month. My Form 10C is returned stating that Less than 6 months.

I have to get atleast my PF Contribution. Minimum Rs.450 * 7 + Employers contribution. I got very less amount.

We had booked for journey with Air-Asia from Singapore to Phuket for Nov. 26, 2008. On reaching the airport we were informed that the flight was cancelled and our booking was transferred to the next day i.e. Nov. 27.

Again on Nov. 27th the flight was cancelled. In addition to this our flight from Phuket to Bangkok was also reported canceled due to closure of the Bangkok airports.

Both our tickets were canceled and we were assured of credit refund on credit card.

We have been regularly writing e-mails, none of which have been replied by Air Asia. The refund has also not been credited to my card yet.

Air Asia has no call centre in India. Even on calling their call centres at Bangkok/Singapore there is no proper response.

Please advise e-mail id of some competent authority whom this matter may be referred to.
