Horrible! Incompetent
Dec. 14th We flew from Cleveland to Memphis then Memphis to Little Rock. We changed flights in Memphis and had to sprint across the airport to make our connecting flight clear across the airport only to hurray up and wait. We boarded and sat there for 45 min. for "documentation to come through" then went into a holding pattern in the air that changed a 30 min flight into 60 min all in all it took longer to fly from Memphis to Little Rock then it would have taken to drive. NWA isn't taking security very serious either. The guy next to us boarded with drinking a glass bottle of Bud Light beer, and when it was empty he used the bottle to spit his chew. Outside of that being rude, the bottle could used as a weapon and the flight attendants did nothing. The flight back was much more fun. At the last minute NWA cancelled our Memphis to Cleveland flight due to airplane maint. We caught a flight to Columbus, we sat on the plane for 1 hour because our ground crew went missing. And of course they lost our luggage. The terrible thing about that is they don't care and are not interested in helping you. Regardless of your issue. My husband uses a breathing machine at night and cannot sleep without it. I explained, we cannot just run out and by another one and going without it is dangerous to his health. They didn't care, haven't called us. They still don't know where our bags are. No one at NWA uses the useless Luggage Tracking system. They don't even show our bags scanned in at the Airport in Little Rock. Terrible airline, people that don't care or do their jobs. We will never fly NWA again.

11 hour delay with rudeness to boot
This was my second time flying with NWA. My flight was delayed a total of 11 hours. The first delay was understandable; it was for two hours because the flight crew had not flown in yet. While we were in the air, the pilot informed us that the flight was being diverted to Memphis because of mechanical problems. We were then placed into another plane. In the second plane we circled the airport for 30-45 minutes, before the pilot dove rapidly at the airport and then went back into the sky in a stomach churning maneuver. The pilot did this again and I thought the plane was going to crash. Before the third time the pilot informed us why he was performing this maneuver, because the landing gear was not working. We finally got back to Memphis and we were let off the plane and told to stay close. At this point the passengers and I were trying to find out what was going to happen in regards to connections, rides, and when we would be leaving. We were all treated very rudely by a young Caucasian female. She refused to answer any of our questions. After an hour and a half another ticket agent finally told us that they had another plane and we would be able to get to Indiana that night. It was at this point after ignoring us for so long that they finally seemed to remember the "Customer First" plan. We were given a $10 food voucher, after most people had already purchased food themselves. Later the ticket agents passed around a few sodas after everybody complained again that we were being ignored again. The next plane that was fueled was done so incorrectly so were delayed yet again. Finally, we were put back on a plane that worked and we were able to be flown to Indiana.

Because of the method in which this was handled (not being told what was happening and the rudeness that I was treated) it is unlikely that I will be flying with your airline again. However, I will look on these events in a different light if I am given a full refund on the cost of my flight and I receive a written apology from the incredibly rude ticket agent. I have posted this letter on a number of websites that collect the complaints of customers who have been treated unfairly. I will be including all future communications to these websites. I hope I will be able to inform future travelers of NWA that when a mistake happens that the company is quick to make amends for any

Horrible customer service
Earlier this week I had the unfortunate experience of flying NWA. After having to experience delayed flights on Monday, the nightmare experience happened on the return flights yesterday. The return flight from Portland, OR to Minneapolis was delayed by 2 hours, which caused several people on the flight to miss their connections. We were told several times during the flight that NWA agents would meet us at the gate to assist us with our connections. When we arrived at Minneapolis, there were NO NWA agents at the gate or anywhere close to the gate. I started walking towards the terminal area in the hopes of finding a NWA person that could help me, with no success. I finally went out of security to the terminal ticket counter, where I learned that a bus would be taking Duluth bound passengers to their destination due to cancelled flights. Myself and others in the same situation asked about our luggage and were told that our luggage would be retrieved and would be going with us on the bus. When we boarded the bus we were told that our luggage would be on a later bus. We were also told that NWA agents would meet our bus in Duluth to assist us. After the long bus ride to Duluth we arrived at the airport to NOT see any NWA agents anywhere. Here was a bus load of passengers, dumped at the airport with NO NWA employees to be seen anywhere, neither around the baggage claim area or at the NWA ticket counter. By this time, the group of passengers who were on the bus were becoming quite irate. The next bus that we had been told would have our luggage arrived, and still no luggage. Several people who were going to Duluth were also traveling on to resort canoe trips and were about to have their vacation plans ruined due to the luggage being held back in Minneapolis and not being delivered to Duluth as promised.

The thing that was upsetting to myself and several others that I talked to late yesterday was the broken promises that NWA had been making to their customers throughout the day in multiple locations throughout the NWA system. It had gotten to where it has become impossible for any of us to believe a word that a NWA employee tells us.

Delta using weight to avoid Work comp. Judge shoots the excuse down
Need your help, This should not happen in America
This week the temp in Minnesota will fall below -15 to -25 Imagine running out to your car after a afternoon of shopping. You race outside cursing the cold as you fumble to grab your keys. 
Now imagine waking up in your car its -25 degrees outside. The car does little to protect against the temp. 

Your body finds it hard to avoid shivering. As you fumble for your keys to warm up your car. It does not matter how many blankets you have it’s still hard to feel your toes. It takes 15 min to scrape the inside of the car then you have to do it outside the car just to see. Sounds Sad right? 

Well that is the life of Greg Staffa. He lost his house in Foreclosure because his former employer Northwest Airlines abused the Work Comp laws.

Back in 2006 Greg was working, performing his job when he got hurt. For a while it was a work comp issue but then suddenly they sent him to a new Dr they had found. This Dr decided it was cause Greg was overweight. Greg is let go that day. Greg gets a work comp lawyer. Greg finally gets his day in court vs NWA. The judge ruled that NWA blaming him being fat for his injury was based on NO medical evidance. She goes on to say there was NO logic or Common Sense used in saying his fatness had anything to do with his injury. Greg Wins.

But NWA cuts his pay by about $1000 a month and removes him of all 7 years of seniority.

Making $1000 a month less and now disabled the rest of his life, contacts his bank of 34 years who has his mortgage asking to please work something out. They basically say “pay or lose your home.”

Shortly after his Court victory Greg gets laid off again due the the merger. Turns out he is laid off because he had lost his seniority after his injury. Had he not lost his seniority he would still be at NWA/Delta.

A new VP guy gets hired at TruStone Financial, Mr. Williamson [email protected] he is willing to work something out if at the time Greg could find a job within 2 months. At the time unemployment was at 8% now it’s at 10%. The media picks up the story and emails start flooding in to his bank. But instead of addressing it Stephen Bohlig orders it to be ignored and like a coward basically hides under his desk hoping it goes away.

So Greg gets Foreclosed the Week before Christmas, 2 weeks before his Birthday (Jan 4th) . This all happened NOT because of his injury but because NWA called Greg Fat. Getting hurt at work should NEVER mean you lose seniority or have to take a $1000 a month pay cut. THAT SHOULD NOT HAPPEN IN AMERICA!!!

Customer service-does not exist
15 Dec 2009--twice this week, I have tried to reach NWA via the 800.225.2525 phone number. No one ever answered. The message announced a wait of 15 minutes. When I sent a message via the web site, I was told that agents are being trained so the staffing is shorted. This does not seem to be the manner to gain and keep customer loyalty. I appears to me that customer service has gone totally down hill since the merger to the point of being non existent.

Have other had similar problems?
