[Resolved]  Spice Jet Airlines — Spice Jet - Fraud & Cheaters of the Highest Quality.

SpiceJet service is the most moronic service that I have ever seen.

A word of advise to my fellow travelers. SpiceJet is a cheat. I am quite sure that they have put this 30 minutes or money gone policy so that they can allot seats of those passengers who are even 5 minutes late, to other passengers at higher cost thus, getting a double fare for one seat.

I was supposed to board the plane to Bangalore from Pune at 6.45 am. I was standing at the spice jet booking line for almost 10 minutes before they told me that the booking for Bangalore had already closed at 6.35, and there was nothing that they could do. How is that possible? I was standing in the line from 6.20 to 6.35 and there was no announcement of any sort. Along with me there were two other passengers who were denied entry for the same reasons.


Even if we were late according to the company policy, we came at least 20 minutes in advance if not 30 minutes according to the company rules. The person at the desk started arguing on why were late, and wasted at least 5 - 10 minutes, after which all three o[censored]s convinced her to call up someone from the aircraft. The aircraft personnel told her that it was too late now, if only she had called up 10 minutes earlier something could have been managed!!!

I wasted in total 10 minutes ( in the line ) + 10 minutes ( in arguing ) after my arrival at 6.20 ( well in advance ) only to be denied entry. On top of it, i had booked a round ticket so my trip from Bangalore to Pune was also wasted. I lost almost Rs 6000 for absolutely no fault of mine!!

The SpiceJet staff is completely useless and know only how to state " Sir/Ma'm, we are sorry we can't help you", repeatedly. I have not faced such problems in any other airline. Infact, I have come 5 to 10 minutes before boarding and issued the boarding pass immediately.

Avoid this hopeless airline!!

I only wish I had read this comment before I booked on Spicejet. I shall never again fly Spicejet. They are so customer unfriendly that it isn't funny. My wife and I completely agree that Spicejet is the worst possible airline imaginable. Let me tell you about our nightmare.

We had booked on SG528 from Bangalore to Kolkata on 1 May 2009. While booking on the Net there was an option to pay for our breakfast in advance and we chose this option requesting for one veg and one non-veg sandwich.

We assumed the sandwiches would come shortly after take off. The flight took off and after a little while I realised that the air hostesses had passed us by without bothering to serve us the sandwiches we had ordered and paid for. When my wife called her the air hostess coolly told us that all the sandwiches were sold. There was just one veg sandwich left and even that had been sold to some other passenger. My wife pointed out that we had already paid for the breakfast and that one veg sandwich should be served to her. Having extracted this we then asked the airhostess for the nonveg sandwich. She said they were out of nonveg sandwiches. We asked her how they could be "out of " nonveg sandwiches when the passengers who had paid for them had not yet been served. She had no answer to this. We then asked her to give us in writing that they had not been able to serve us the nonveg sandwich for which we had paid in advance. She said she would not give this in writing. We cried ourselves hoarse but to no avail. A little while later she brought a gentleman who we learnt was the First Officer. This gentleman turned out to be no better. He would not give us in writing that Spicejet had not carried enough sandwiches to serve even the passengers who had already paid for them. Seeing that we would have no proof in case we complained about this my wife decided to record the conversation with the First Officer and the air hostess. The First Officer showed his true Spicejet colours and said that the police would meet us at Kolkata airport.

Shock of shocks the police did meet us at the airport and in a Kafkaesque scene we were made to listen to the European Captain lecturing us on how we should not have disrupted the flight and that it was a serious matter.. No apologies whatsoever for their mistake of not serving the passengers who had paid first. Not a word about why the airhostess could not give us in writing that they were not able to serve us the breakfast which we had paid for.

This is the last time we are flying Spicejet.
SPICE JET PLANE MAY BE GOOD BUT ITS POLICY AND AGENTS ARE BIG CROOK. I have been cheated by spice jet stating late. There was other 9 passengers who faced the same problem. This happen on 5th december 2010 flight from kathmandu to delhi. I asked spice jet agent if our ticket is sold or we are not registered, they deny to show the board list too and advised us to claim re-fund where we bought ticket. but to my surprise when we claim in office at zenith travel they politely reject to refund whole amount including taxes. This company have website but do not have contact address, phone, email. http://www.zenithtravels.biz/contactus.php So all I want to tell people to be careful of this kind of trouble.
