Offered 20-minute holiday by airline

A few weeks ago, I booked SilkAir flights from Changi Airport for a party of three, due to arrive in Langkawi on March 7 at 10.05am and departing from there the next day at 8.45pm.

Recently, I was contacted by SilkAir's parent company Singapore Airlines (SIA) and advised that my flight home from Langkawi on the evening of March 8 had been cancelled "for commercial reasons".

I was offered, instead, a flight scheduled to leave Langkawi on the morning of March 7, about 20 minutes after I was due to arrive.

What was SIA thinking, offering me a holiday of just 20 minutes?

I had to cancel my planned weekend in Langkawi.

Thank Bret for alerting us...

I share with you my experience with another dim-wit airline. .that later sunk in the red quite disastrously.

I booked a flight to Xiamen with Tiger Air.

Some 3 weeks later, they informed me that they have problem with China Aviation regarding the flight approval.

So they made the refund to me. And they charge me a processing fee for the refund.

I argue that I am not he party cancelling the deal.

I argue that it now cost me more to re-book another flight as it is closer to my flight schedule.

They put their nose in the air and tell me it is their policy..

So now it is my policy to tell others not to use Tiger...

It works....They are less profitable after that.
