Continental Airlines « planetOzh

I will probably post more than just a useless rant about an airline company after such a beautiful trip I’ve made (see previous post), but now the customs are away, yes, I have somethings to declare : Continental Airlines suck. I’ve travelled a bit around the world, and made this trip to the USA with my parents who travel a lot, so we can compare our 4 consecutive flights on Continental Airlines with quite a few other competitors, including truely cheap Middle East Low Cost Charters. None has been as unpleasant as them.

Unwelcoming crew who probably wasn’t told to be smiling nor listening to customers requests. Food so bad I’d be honestly ashamed if I had to give this to anyone (yellowish salad, dry bred, raw carrots with no dressing, so charming) Oh, wait, maybe they were actually ashamed, so that’s why we had so little food ? Well, when we had some at least (two 4 hours flights around noon, expecting something to eat ? you wish !) Seat reservations not being respected (always fun when a 5 person group is splitted everywhere in the plane). Commercials broadcasted so loud on the TV’s you can’t escape them, but when it’s movie time … you have to *buy* $5 headphones if you want to listen !

You may think : “well, dude, their goal is to bring you safe to some place, not entertain nor feed you during 11 hours”. I’d reply : “Sure, but their competitors do, for the same rates.” Continental Airlines suck. Now, if Google would rank me high on the words “Continental Airlines“, that would be a nice revenge :>
