TAP Air Portugal...
I will start with... one star to many
Doesn't matter where in the world TAP employees are clueless about their jobs... kid you not
If dealing with TAP make sure you get to the airport not 3 but 5 hrs ahead of time, if you have to go to their counter because you have excess of baggage, have a pet or you have especial needs... you need the 5 hrs.
You will be talking to someone that won't look at you... and you also can be blue on the face trying tell them what ever you need to explain to them doesn't matter. You will be losing your flight... or pay through your nose for something you don't know what... and better pay or you lose your flight
They will not listen because they know better... the customer has no idea what he needs or wants...
That beautiful saying " Customer is always right" is wrong.
They snap at you, make you feel like you are a criminal. They are rude, obnoxious to the point of you losing your temper and then you are done.
I tried to call TAP Air Portugal numerous times and different numbers... I waited some times 30/40 minutes no one picked up the calls, the message goes on " due to high number of calls do not hung up you call will be answered..." I also tried the email address, now that's interesting they don't have one, only to book your flight but there they give you a phone number that goes no where...
My trip was on the 3rd of January 2018, I traveled a lot on my 60 years, I am Canadian and like most Canadians I am very polite and have tons of patience and apologize a lot in a between...
For the first time I felt insulted... I was like a flee bothering a dog
Be careful TAP now co-works with other air lines in Canada and USA, when booking a trip ask about it, freely they don't give you that info.
