China Southern seems dead cheap, but takes forever, and the reviews are horrendous !
Qatar don't seem too bad either.
I like to fly from Manchester.
2 years ago my girlfriend was returning to the UK after her holiday in the Philippines. Her internal flight to Manila was delayed. I rang China Southern to have her flight from Manila to Manchester changed to a later flight. The conversation went something like this.
Me: I want to change this flight to a later one.
China Southern: You can't do that.
Me: Why not?
China Southern: Because you bought a very cheap ticket (£800 return). It can not be transferred.
Me: The travel agent who sold me the ticket says the flight can be changed. There is nothing to indicate otherwise.
China Southern. The flight cannot be changed. You have to buy another ticket.
Me: She does not have the money to buy another ticket. Are you telling me that she has to stay in the Philippines forever because you won't change the flight?
China Southern. You have to buy another ticket. Goodbye.
I had to buy another single ticket for the next flight. The cost was so painful that my brain has erased the memory.
