Bicycle not accepted for the Argus

I booked my flight with Kulula over a month ago to fly to Cape Town today for the Cape Argus. I paid for my bicycle as per their sports equipment policy at R 245 because it was paid for in advance. When I arrived at the airport Kulula refused to accept my bicycle. They stated they were not accepting bikes for the argus and they had a separate group of people taking bikes. I was told that I should have paid R300 I was forced to pay the full R300 as I was not allowed to pay the difference. They told us that there was a notice on their website that they admitted only went on last week. I was also told that they can't guarantee my bike will be on the flight it might take 4 days by then I would have missed the argus.<br> This is my first time time flying with kulula and I will never fly with them again. My husband was trying to speak to the customer service supervisor at kulula offices who couldn't care and hung up on us.

Hello julsuys,

Thank you for your post.

Bicycles for the Cape Town Cycle Tour 2015 on the Lanseria -Cape Town sector must be dropped off at the Cycle Drop-Off/Collection Station of the Main Parking Area, found by following the directional signage at Lanseria International Airport from 01 March 2015 until 07 March 2015.

Although we are doing our best, there is no guarantee that your bicycle will be on the same flight as your booked flight due to limited hold space.

Regards.

David
