From Unprofessional to Unlawful – A Shocking Airline Experience My husband and I were flying from Cape Town to Berlin with a connecting flight in Amsterdam. We arrived at Amsterdam with plenty of time and sat at the gate indicated on the screens. The screen only showed a delay—there were no announcements over the speakers and no information from staff. Suddenly, we received a text message informing us of a gate change. We immediately went to the new gate and arrived just five minutes after the message, only to be told we could not board because we were “too late.” However, two passengers who arrived after us were allowed to board without issues. How is that acceptable? We were checked in, had boarding passes in hand, and were present at the airport the entire time. Based on what we witnessed, it appears our seats were given away to other passengers. To make matters worse, the three women at the gate behaved incredibly unprofessionally—they were dismissive, rude, and even laughed in our faces as we explained that our minor children were at home alone in Berlin, waiting for us to return. We asked for their names and they refused to provide them. We received no support. The complaints desk simply rebooked us for the next morning. As a result, we are now spending the night in the airport—exhausted, distressed, and extremely worried about our children at home. This experience was not only deeply unprofessional, but it raises serious concerns about fairness and compliance with passenger rights. How can it be legal for a company be allowed to operate this way? They sell you something and then do not deliver. And then there is no accountability, communication or owing up to a mistake. Deceitful company. I would be ashamed to work there.
