Don't be ripped off by Delta's low-cost non-refundable tickets!!!
I arrived at the airport 1 hour and a half early like I usually did on other travels (and Delta suggested on the website that the check-in time should be at least 45 minutes before only!) and was waiting in the line for check-in. I was scared I might be late for the flight so I asked the agent right away to check in my luggages first so I would be on time for the flight but they didn't listen and told me to go to "Special Services" with only one agent handling. That person also didn't even listen to me when I told her that my flight will depart soon please handle my case asap. She just took her time doing other stuff and was being mean to me saying I was already late for the flight (while there's still 1 hour left!!!!!) and gotta pay 500$ for the next one (while my original ticket was only 250$). When i fly Southwest, they would announce on the speaker and try to rush me in even though it's only 30 minutes left. But I wanted to try Delta this time due to their price being just a little cheaper. I explained to her I really need to be on time for a tour in the West or else I would even have to pay more. I'm only a student why couldn't they be more flexible? I'm seriously in debt now just because of this incident, which could have been resolved more easily if they just let me through the check-in in the first place! I mean I wasn't even late, why did their agents act like they just wanted me to be late for the flight. So I can purchase another 500$ one??? That's very low, I'm super dissapointed. I kept on filling out the "Refund Request" form online but it never went through. Please beware students out there... Southwest is the best!
