rude attendents all flight
jan 31st flight from vancouver to puerto vallarta. flight went well but the attendents were very rude and seemed to not want to be there. requests throughout the flights were greeted with grunts and being told to wait. my own problem was that i attempted to go to the washroom at front of plane (one only). twice i was told to return to my seat and they pulled the curtain across madly-dont know what they were doing. this happened twice to me and many others, my third attempt almost ended the same way but i finally got to bathroom as they grunted again as i went by. if i had been refused again, i can tell you, there would have been a verbal confrontation. i have a medical condition which requires medication which causes dry mouth so i need to drink liquids almost constantly resulting in having to use the washroom quite frequently. i only managed one trip and was very very uncomfortable and almost did not make it to washroom when arrived in puerto vallarta. i am skeptical about using sunwing services again. by the way, flight home fe4b. 14th the attendents bent over backwards for us all...thinking about whether to use again. p.brown

extra long flight
I booked a direct flight to Hautulco from Winnipeg - estimated flying time around 5-6 hours.
A couple of days before the flight, I was notified that we would be stopping in Regina.
Upon checking in, I was told we were ALSO stopping in Saskatoon AND Regina, and that no one was allowed off the plane
Total flying time 10 hours!
Plus, a majority of the Winnipeg passengers were seated in the back, making us the last people off the flight when it did finally arrive.
We sat on the plane from 7:30 am until it landed at 5pm...with no food service until 2:30 pm. We were starving.

Sunwing should not be allowed to get away with this lack of customer service, especially when I paid for a direct flight.
Be warned...and try not to book with them if at all possible.

Severe flight delay & cruel treatment
We flew with Sunwing to Cancun on Feb 3, 2010, with my wife and three very young children. We loved the resort we stayed at and everything went almost perfect, except on the day of return. On feb 10, 2010 the driver took us from the Hotel, he drove like a crazy man and we had to listen to a very loud Mexican music for more than 40 minutes and he had the air conditioning so high (very cold) that we almost needed blankets. But this was nothing compared to what happened later. We arrived at Cancun Airport at 7.30 AM, the flight was supposed to leave at 10.20 but it got delayed until 1.30 pm due to maintenance problems and no body from sunwing bothered to explain to us what was happening. We finally took off to Cozumel to pick up more passengers (we were never told about this stop before we left Toronto) and when we landed we were told that the same technical problem has recurred and that we had to wait on the plane until they fixed it. After waiting for one hour and 30 minutes on the plane (which was extremely hot) they finally said you can leave and wait in the airport hall. There were other 150 passengers waiting, I told them that my wife is pregnant and that she cannot stay sitiing or standing, she needed to lye down and we asked the sunwing person to put us in a Hotel until the problem was solved. they said they would look into this, in the mean time they did give us food vouchers (only one place was open in that airport and it did not have enough food). then they said it was going to take 8 more hours for another plane to arrive from Montreal. I asked them again to put us in a Hotel but they refused. Finally, the people in COzumel left us all in a big hall and they closed the door and the air conditioning. This was the worst day of our lives considering also that we have 3 young children. We finally left cozumel at 1.30 am after a 17 hour stay in airports and arrived in Toronto at 7 am. My wife had to stay in bed 3 days due to fatigue and severe pains, I had to take time from work to look after our children. I will never fly again with sunwing and I am telling all my friends also not to. I will be asking for compensation from the company otherwise I feel obligated to take legal action against Sunwing. I would appreciate any help in bringing this complaint to the president and CEO of this company.

overcharged/service not delivered
When I booked my ticket, I paid an extra $40C for the elite plus service on a champagne getaway, which allows for emergency row seating and an extra 5kg of checked baggage (30kg). My baggage weighed in at 29kg and I was charged an extra $10 per pound ($40) over the normal ticket price for a 25kg baggage allowance. The clerk consulted her coworker and agreed that I was Elite Plus, but still made me pay the $40. Also, there was no priority check-in available and we were made to wait for over an hour and a half until the second security check even opened, which at that time, due to no overseer or cordoned off area, everyone who held any type of ticket at all, rushed through to the second security check, which was another entire nightmare. We were unable to get on our plane until 3 hours after we were told to arrive at the airport, and then learned that the champagne breakfast deal was also a "no-show" as alcohol was not permitted to be served. Why sell an elite plus ticket claiming you will be served champagne (which was much needed at this point!) if you know full well that you will not be serving it. I paid $120 extra for a trip that offered me none of the advertised benefits other than sitting in the emergency row.
