"changed the flight departure time"

(United Kingdom)

Trip Verified | I flew from Singapore to Melbourne without any problems so some of the ratings below refer to that flight. However, Scoot's organisational abilities and customer service leave a huge amount to be desired. I had a Scoot booking to fly by Virgin from Canberra to Sydney and by Scoot to Singapore, to connect with a separate flight to London. Scoot changed the flight departure time but didn't tell Virgin so I was not allowed to board the flight. After hours of phone calls from the airport the only solution was to catch a Singapore Airlines flight for over AUD $1,500. They insisted that I had to pay for it myself because (despite being a subsidiary of Singapore Airlines) they were not able to, and they promised they would repay it. Four weeks later they still claim to be checking the paperwork.

"had a very smooth, comfortable flight"

(Japan)

Trip Verified | I read the reviews online only after booking with Scoot and I was very worried after seeing so many negative reviews. However, I had a very smooth, comfortable flight with no problems. The aircraft was new, spacious and clean. The staff were a little blunt but not rude. I paid for the Nasi Lemak and it was good and also came with a water and chocolate. As someone who always flies with LCCs I’m used to being treated poorly while flying but this was a really pleasant experience. I would 100% fly with them again!

"unbelievably disrespectful"

(Malaysia)

Trip Verified | Manila to Singapore. I had the worst experience from an airline in my life. It was unbelievably disrespectful and I was unfairly treated in Manila airport. Missed my flight due to long queue in the immigration despite checking in early and the flight took off earlier than departure date but that’s not the problem. The way I was treated at the gate was a disgrace. Instead of trying to listen to my queries I was bombarded by remarks where it’s not the airlines fault and it’s entirely all my fault and the airline is not liable. I was only trying to raise my queries 1) what happened to my ticket 2) what’s the alternative to get to my destination. At least I get an idea what can I do next. But all I get is a small piece of paper with the customer service number to reach out to (called the number and all I get was voicemail - all executives were busy). Managed to get through once and while verifying the phone got dropped off. The most surprising thing is all the staff at the gate just left! Left me by myself! I had to hunt for my luggage somewhere at the 4th floor of the airport and again! No one was there. They had no idea where my luggage was and they made me wait at the corner for 45 minutes at around 12.30am. This is disgraceful for an airline. What’s worst is how I was being treated. Maybe those staff are just hurrying to go home with their bag packs. Absolute disgrace! Maybe it’s a one off but this is the worst experience I’ve had in my life!

"proactive and helpful people"

(Australia)

Trip Verified | Had a need to clarify my wife's (and infant) portion of our booking. I called the support line to ask about what can be done within the scope of our ticket. I spoke with one of the most proactive and helpful people I could have hoped for. To my surprise, she had provided me with options to save me a substantial portion of money. I was really thankful for this and to Scoot for acknowledging things change in peoples lives and being able to accommodate this.

"thank the attentive staff"

(Singapore)

Trip Verified | Singapore to Ho Chi Minh City. Appreciate the supervisor on our flight to HCM . My husband is elderly and uses a walking stick and has weakness in his legs. When he boarded the flight, the supervisor noticed he was a bit unsteady at the entrance & was kind enough to allocate us a seat near the front 3 D/E, instead of our counter allocated seats in row 30. On our return flight, the counter supervisor also kindly asked the booking staff to allocate us a seat near the entrance, again it happened to be 3 D&E. We thank the attentive staff for their assistance.

"staff refused to help me"

(India)

Trip Verified | Gold Coast to Chennai via Singapore. I paid extra for extra legroom seats and for food and beverages. On boarding the aircraft, I discovered that my seats are not extra legroom seats. The staff refused to help me in any way despite having paid extra for those seats. All they offered was that I may get refund for the extra charges if I pursue with airlines office after completion of our journey. Food quality and quantity were both pathetic.

"attentive flight attendant"

(Singapore)

Trip Verified | Haikou to Singapore. Was on the flight returning to Singapore and was fortunate to have an attentive flight attendant who went extra mile to care for the passengers on board. Scoot, a budget airline but you do not get budget service.

"How mean is that!"

(United States)

Trip Verified | Bangkok to Osaka via Singapore. Worst ever. Flight information notifications confusing and misleading. We knew that no free meals would be provided but were astonished to be told that passengers cannot consume any food or beverages they bring to the plane. Not even drinking water is provided unless you pay. Was told that the planes used to have water fountains but they were removed. How mean is that! Our decision: never again!.

"food laughably expensive"

(Singapore)

Trip Verified | Singapore to Krabi and return on Scoot. Despite being "low-cost," ticket price similar to full-service affiliates Silk and Singapore Airlines on comparable-length routes. A320 was an old, ex-Tiger aircraft with extremely limited seat pitch; I'm only 178cm and my knees dug into seat in front of me. On both legs the aged leather seats had an omnipresent, unpleasant, and distinct smell. On-board entertainment non-existent. On-board food laughably expensive; $15-20 for just a standard economy class size economy main-dish without any accompaniments. Hand luggage policies strictly enforced on KBV-SIN sector, but boarding efficient. Crew a far cry from competitors and were practically invisible. Both flights departed on time, though return was still a bit late. Punctuality is all you can reasonably hope for when flying low-cost airlines, but given the high cost of the ticket, I still didn't feel I get what I paid for. You can't expect much when flying a low-cost carrier, but Scoot falls far below even its low-cost competition - and it has plenty in the region. It's striking that the same group that does full-service so right at Singapore Airlines can do it so wrong at its low-cost subsidiary Scoot.

"worst customer service"

(United States)

Trip Verified | Bangkok to Tokyo. Most horrible airline, worst customer service. Tried to pay my baggage online and the web page wasn’t working properly. They charge me almost $80 when I checked in, none of the people working in the counter were able to facilitate the way of payment. Flying with this airline is as nasty as flying with Spirit, RyanAir etc. They will have you pay in any way they will find. Will never fly with this company again.
