We have just flown from Perth to Jordan via Doha and we were totally underwhelmed!
Firstly, my pre-booking did not work because the plane on the web check-in was not the same as the one that flew us to Doha- so booking an aisle seat suddenly became a middle seat!
The transfer at the airport was chaotic. But the most astounding was the flight between Jordan and Doha. Is there no control on size of hand-luggage? Is strapping in an optional extra? Why are passengers allowed to have huge handbags on their laps and when they are told to put them on the floor they simply refuse? How can passengers simply refuse to sit in their allocated seat sending the poor hostesses rushing about to reallocate seats while theplane is taking off? All the signs of a BUDGET carrier- not an international airline!!!.
But what totally left us reeling was the fact that the wheels of the plane had hardly touched the ground when passengers were already taking their luggage out of the racks- we were taxiing in and the aisles were already full of standing passengers. It was total chaos-certainly not to be repeated by us!
Who or what has voted this airline best airline of the world?
