GCA owes me a refund for an airline ticket for $750.000. What should I do?
I recommend you consult Aerocivil for advice or the equivalent of the Colombian consumer court.
In my case, I bought tickets in advance when the market opened in Colombia Three round trip tickets Cali-Cúcuta. Which due to the pandemic I could not use, later and after many inconveniences I was able to get a flight.
There they disappeared and until today's sun.
They owe me reimbursement from others around $1.000.000
Thank you for telling us about your case Ana.
I would think that because of the covid pandemic 19 the airline had financial problems, since they inaugurated the 29 November 2019 and so alone 3 months and a half later, The pandemic arrived and with it the restriction of flights, fewer passengers per flight, etc etc
It may be among the issues that affected the airline, but in general it went through low occupancy of its flights, for this reason they could never fly all the routes that were in their plans and those that they flew, quickly reduced or canceled.
My flight from Cali to San Andrés was canceled in January, I was traveling in February, and I requested the refund and they told me that they would do it but I had to sue before the superintendence of industry and commerce because in the super transport they do not manage the refund. To date they have not yet responded but with the demand in the SIC the claim is already in process.
Thanks for your input.
They stole my money 2 tickets from San Andres to Cali, they canceled the flight since January and until today they have not responded, nor with the right to petition before MinTansporte.
You must insist on the legal route. In Aerocivil they told you something about it?
Hello there, Ana. Do it with demand in the Superintendency of Industry and Commerce. In the aerocivil they send it to the supertransport but they do not manage the reimbursements, is the SIC.
