another cancelled flight

not again? yesss i live near goldcoast airport and i have a daughter who lives in adel and two who live in Syd. kate has a 1yr old daughter and pregnant(3mths) Turns up at Syd with plenty of time cause you know what being 2 mins late for checkin means...sorry youv'e missed your flight! Sorry Kate your flights been cancelled.
Last year i flew to Syd (with virgin...on time) but coming back with Jstar the fight which was booked & payed for 2 wks in advance was cancelled & for 3hours jetstar told us nothing about what was happening and vacated their service desk. So 4 hours later i get on a flight. My daughter came up for a week's visit...she runs her own buisnees so punctuality is important. Guess what she came with Virgin no probs, going home Jstar cancelled her flight 3 days in a row,(by sms) can you believe that? Good 4 us we get to spend 3 xtra days with our daughter and grand daughter but her husband had to work ten days straight & pay a casual to help him do the till evry night.
These dont count the times that flights were delayed. Everyone wants to save a dollar on airfares the same as they do when filling up their car with petrol but because you get the best price doesn't mean the petrol bowser stops for 3 hours. Every one i know always checks virgins prices B4 Jstars and most will pay up to $20 xtra, come on Virgin get more flights in Jstar's price range...You wont even have to match them. Cheap fares shouldn't mean cancelled flights.
