    Thumbs down Terrible "Terms and Conditions" from JetStar

    MNL- Several passengers bound for Singapore early Wednesday were irked over a policy by an airline company, which refused to honor their tickets that were paid for on credit cards owned by either their companies or by their travel agencies.

    A Miascor ground team manning the Jet Star Asia check-in counter composed of Joanne Aquino, supervisor; Richelle Raygon, and Chalison Dionisio informed passengers on Flight 3K78 about the budget airline firm’s “no physical credit card, no accommodation” policy that required them to present the credit cards used to make the payments before they could be allowed to board the plane.
    This despite the fact that the bookings were made online, after the airline firm’s system had accepted the payments made through these credit cards, and after photocopies of the credit card were presented to the crew for verification.
    Joanne Llavore, INQUIRER.net’s sales and marketing director, who was booked on the 6:20 a.m. flight for an advertising conference in Singapore, was forced to shell out cash for a two-way ticket because she could not even transfer flights on another airline back to the Philippines as she was told by the same staff that payment has been made for the entire trip.
    Making matters worse for Llavore was that her money could be refunded only in 15-20 days — another airline policy. She had brought along her husband and child in the hope of spending a short vacation with them after the conference.
    Quoting the ground crew, Llavore said that if she wanted to have the credit card payment cancelled, she would have to do so when she reached Singapore.
    Llavore’s official trip was paid for by INQUIRER.net under a corporate account. INQUIRER.net is the news website of the Philippine Daily Inquirer. Both are under the Inquirer Group of Companies.

    The business trip was booked a week ago and the payment was made via INQUIRER.net’s Security Bank mastercard.
    Other passengers who were unable to make the cash payments were forced to cancel their flights.
