The World's Worst Airlines

By Jonny Blair


These are the world's worst airlines!

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. Jetstar a budget Airline

Jetstar are atrocious, they completely cancelled one of my flights in 2011 even after I had already got on the plane. Their flights are always delayed and they hate their customers a lot. They don't even offer any type of compensation and just take money off people and give nothing back!

3. Aerolineas from Argentina

A very strange company Aerolineas as they scheduled a flight for me before my initial flight was even due to leave. It was all a bit weird and I wasted a few days in Ushuaia sat in their office trying to sort the flights out.

- on three occasions they changed my flight time

- even made me change airports at Buenos Aires

- cancelled an entire flight

- they then delayed my new flight and refused to give me a coffee for free

- they put the blame on these mistakes down to a computer error

4. Airline Company Cathay Pacific

They lost my bag in 2012 on a long haul flight from Hong Kong to Heathrow. When my bag didn't arrive in Heathrow I had no time to waste as my connection to Belfast City Airport was in 55 minutes so I had no time to even complain. Again I have to thank my girlfriend who sourced my bag in the end. It was still in Hong Kong 3 days later and was found. Cathay Pacific offered NOTHING in compensation, but eventually delivered my bag (safe and sound) to my parents home where I was staying for a week.

5. 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!

- Air Asia are a shit airline company

As a person who has worked in the travel industry, the customer service industry and in Public Relations during my life, I'm fairly qualified and knowledge to know that these 5 shit airline companies suck. I would like to mention that Aerosur (Bolivia), Ryanair (Ireland), Air Canada (Canada) and British Airways (England) have all been good airline companies to fly with.

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