Viva Aerobus: Fly!

I don’t usually review apps, but I’ve never had an easier time with check in than with Viva Aerobús. I have flown with Aeromexico for years but honestly they are not very nice and they create a lot of extra bureaucracy to do very simple processes—Viva Aerobús isn’t like that. Yes there isn’t first class or premium economy on their flights, but the process of check in couldn’t be easier because the app works like every airline app should—it saves your information and only takes 15 seconds to check in. If only every airline’s app worked as well as this one!

When deciding on an airline let Viva be your last choice. I am still waiting after a whole year to be compensated for a luggage they stole and now ignore my request and calls. They have delayed my plane 2 twice from LA and from Tijuana, they do it without consideration or a care to their customers. They have lost my aunts walker and feel no remorse for have lost a medical equipment that someone who is disabled needs. Save your money don’t travel with this airline unless it is truly your last choice and desperate. Sadly we are limited to what we get to choose but none the less I will be honest and make sure that it is known how careless and unprofessional this airline is.

1. Booked a flight tried to cancel within 24hours, but due to 2 HOURS ON HOLD they did not honor the 24 limit for full refund instead gave me a certificate. 2. Took 2 days to receive certificate via email, the instructions tell you to book online, click payment options then enter certificate number. THERE IS NO SUCH OPTION! 3. Show up to airport 1 hr early, there was no one in the booth… i could not check in online so I could get my boarding pass. By the time I walked to the other side of the airport where they had another booth, they said my flight was closed (45 min til flights) and we couldn’t board. Moved to next flight. 3. Certificate was only honored for 1 person Same passengers, but they said since it was under my name they couldn’t give it to the other passenger. Took 1 1/2 hrs to book flight on phone. 4. Been on hold over an hour trying to add baggage cause the rep gave me the wrong package. NEVER AGAIN. I THOUGHT THE OTHER AIRLINES WERE BAD… this takes the cake. I rarely write reviews but i had to here. Wasting hours s of my life to reedem my certificate and lost money bc i will not be able to use the full balance.
