Volaris

Volaris application not helpful at all I tried doing the check in for 2 passengers however I was unable to do so due issues with their app, a message comes up to call customer service for further assistance so I did. An absolute waste of time the representative who I spoke with mike from Ciudad Obregón was not helping at all. All he said was to try the check in on the website after I had explain to him that i was unable to do it either on the app or on the website I was referred to the airport which I find ridiculous if me the flyer want to expedite the process by checking in online and if the website or app isn’t available they shouldn’t give us the clients the run around that should be able to assist when you contact their customer service call center. Horrible customer service

Their service just keeps getting worse! They push for you to get the app for easy check-in, however, a new policy came in (info given from a volaris representative) where the app will automatically assign you your seat. The problem is if you have a different reservation number then your partner or family members it will not allow you to sit next to them unless you pay a fee. It will assign you in the middle or the end of a row with random people and if you try to move up one row it will still charge you! Also, if you check-in as soon as it is open you will be automatically assigned to the last row and the system works it’s way up. Calling their customer service phone is a waste of time, they will NOT help. This last trip the app would not allow me to check-in everyone, there was a glitch and it only gave me 1 boarding pass out of 3, I called volaris and they asked me try online instead of the app. I listened and a system notification came up that said “please call our customer service for assistance” I read it to them and they told me to try again in a few hours and hung up. Lastly, the flight prices in the app are not the same as the website so make sure to check both, one may give you a cheaper price.

Like the one review I just read. I always book the minute I can. And they gave me the very last seat. In front of the bathroom. I fly Southwest Airlines. A few times a year. from Chicago. To Florida. Almost as long a flight. 3 hours. Or so. To Mexico City. And some real low fares, most of the time. And besides the two free checked bags. And one carry on. They give you two kinds of snacks. And sodas. Or other juices they have. But not here. When I asked the guy. If a drink was included. Maybe because of the engine noise. He did not hear me. But He did say yes. So. I opened the drink. While saying. What kind of chips do you have. He shows me two. I took one. They he starts pushing buttons on his hand held computer. And tells me. $6.00 I said that’s why I asked you if it’s included. He said no. I gave him back the chips. But kept the $3.00 drink. Because I opened it. One time later. They went by so fast with water. I did not even try to ask for any. On the way home. I said. Is there a charge for water. Again. No. And there really wasn’t. I will check other airlines next year. Before I book with them again.

First I was robbed from a seat I had paid online but was not given to me and was changed at the counter. Once boarded and being on the runway for over 35 minutes, the pilot announced that the aircraft had a computer issue that was going to be fixed in 15 minutes. Several hours later, we were still on the runway with the same issue and NO ONE giving us an explanation. I, along with other passengers, decided to get off the plane. NO ONE aided us with the process and refused to give us any refund or accommodations on another flight. I had to buy another ticket on another airline due to your non-compliance and lack of communication from your employees as to when the flight would leave and if the conditions to fly were optimal. The basic needs were not covered on the plane and there was not even water to use the restroom. This appears to be a usual practice of your airline. I expect a full refund of all the charges for this flight. I will also submit a complaint to the Federal Aviation Administration. This definitely was the trip of hell.

I fly Volaris about a dozen times a year and I enjoy the flights, check ins, etc but I just wish they would hire some competent people to sift through their app and website and get out all the kinks. When I book I have to use the website to find my ticket, then go to the app to try to buy it but I typically can’t and have to call and they can’t help because I’m a VClub member. It’s a real hassle. The app worked great till about mid last year then it got all wonky. I use it to check in and for my boarding passes but just last week I tried to get an extra bag checked in for myself and my two kids. It would let me purchase extra bags for myself and my daughter but not my son. Don’t know why, but it’s those kinds of things that make me down grade it’s rating. Sometimes the price is different too on the app compared to the website - typically cheaper, so that’s good but why they can’t just figure it out is beyond me. I’ve been giving this feedback to them for several years and nothing’s changed - if anything, it’s gotten worse.
