Most
airline Complaint letters are so filled with rage and tales
of woe, it's hard to see any humor in the situation.
But
that's not the case with a letter written to LIAT, a small
airline serving 21 destinations in the Caribbean. The complaint waged
in a letter to the airline is so funny that it prompted another
airline's CEO to tweet it to his more than 3 million followers.
"How
to write a complaint letter -- read this hilarious note from a
frustrated airline passenger," tweeted Sir Richard Branson,
founder of the Virgin Group.
Dear
LIAT,
May
I say how considerate it is of you to enable your passengers such an
in-depth and thorough tour of the Caribbean.
Most
other airlines I have travelled on would simply wish to take me from
point A to B in rather a hurry. I was intrigued that we were allowed
to stop at not a lowly one or two but a magnificent six airports
yesterday. And who wants to fly on the same airplane the entire time?
We got to change and refuel every step of the way!
I
particularly enjoyed sampling the security scanners at each and every
airport. I find it preposterous that people imagine them all to be
the same. And as for being patted down by a variety of islanders,
well, I feel as if I've been hugged by most of the Caribbean already.
I also found it unique that this was all done on "island time,"
because I do like to have time to absorb the atmosphere of the
various departure lounges. As for our arrival, well, who wants to
have to take a ferry at the end of all that flying anyway? I'm glad
the boat was long gone by the time we arrived into Tortola last night
-- and that all those noisy bars and restaurants were closed.
So
thank you, LIAT. I now truly understand why you are "The
Caribbean Airline."
P.S.
Keep the bag. I never liked it anyway.
Now this is CLASS. An angry passenger not willing to pass his anger to everyone. Really cool.
