Checked baggage not boarded
I am writing to formally express my deep dissatisfaction and frustration with the appalling service I received during my recent flight with FlySafair from OR Tambo International Airport to Cape Town International Airport on 04.08.2023. I believe that such experiences reflect poorly on the airline's reputation and raise significant concerns about your company's lack of accountability and disregard for customer well-being.
Upon arrival in Cape Town, I was extremely distressed to find out that my checked baggage was not boarded onto the flight. The absence of my bags, which contained essential medication and clothing, caused significant inconvenience and distress throughout my entire journey. As a passenger, I expect the airline to fulfill its fundamental responsibility of safely transporting passengers and their belongings, which was clearly not met in this instance.
Furthermore, the manner in which your staff handled the situation was highly unprofessional and disrespectful. Despite the considerable delay in addressing the issue, the lack of transparency in providing an estimated time of arrival for my bags was disheartening. I was forced to wait for the 10:30 PM flight and endure the anxiety of not knowing whether my belongings would ever arrive. The situation worsened when I was informed at 11:00 PM that my bags were not even brought to Cape Town, leaving me without the necessities required for my stay.
The fact that your employee chose to dismiss my concerns and closed the conversation without a resolution or apology was a clear indication of your company's disregard for customer satisfaction and basic communication principles. Such actions show a lack of empathy and accountability, further exacerbating my frustration.
I am deeply disappointed by the lack of responsibility, transparency, and respect displayed by FlySafair throughout this entire ordeal. I expect a formal apology from the airline, along with a clear explanation of why my baggage was mishandled, and what steps will be taken to prevent similar incidents in the future. Additionally, I demand adequate compensation for the distress and inconvenience caused, as well as reimbur*****t for any necessary expenses incurred due to the delayed delivery of my baggage.
I hope that this formal complaint prompts FlySafair to take immediate action to rectify the issues I have raised. As a customer, I deserve to be treated with dignity and provided with the service and care that I paid for.
I need my bags delivered me in the morning before 10am in 05.08.2023 so I can bath and change clothes
I reiterate my demand for a formal apology, immediate action to expedite the search for my baggage, and transparent communication regarding the progress being made. I understand that unforeseen delays may occur, but keeping your customers in the dark about the situation is unjustifiable.

I am relieved to inform you that my baggage was eventually delivered. However, I regret to report that the bag arrived in a severely damaged condition, rendering it irreparable and unusable. Furthermore, upon receipt, I noticed that the bag had been tampered with, as it was no longer sealed with the original cable tie.
I expected FlySafair to uphold the utmost care and responsibility for my belongings during the entire journey, which was unfortunately not the case.
I expect FlySafair to treat this matter with the utmost urgency and prioritize my request for compensation, as the airline's failure to handle my baggage responsibly and leaving it in JHB has led to considerable inconvenience and emotional distress.
I await your call because should my bag have been boarded with me it wouldn't have been broken
