"Avoid them like the plague"

(Pakistan)

Not Verified | Avoid them like the plague if you value your sanity and dignity. My recent experiences with Airblue have been nothing short of disastrous. Three times I've been subjected to their arbitrary policy changes, regardless of when I booked my ticket. From surprise seat charges to reneging on extra luggage allowances, their disregard for customer loyalty is staggering. Yet, the pinnacle of their incompetence came when they delayed my flight four times, only to cancel it at midnight without offering any assistance or accommodations. It's a shameful display of disregard for passenger well-being. In summary, flying with Airblue is an exercise in frustration and disappointment.

"didn't allow the same bag with hand carry"

(Pakistan)

Not Verified | Worst experience with Dubai check in staff. I carried my laptop bag with me with a hand carry from Pakistan to Dubai. And they didn't allow the same bag with hand carry when coming back. I even adjusted the things in 1 hand carry still they were not accepting any extra weight fee to carry my things. Also the staff manager Uzair Ali was very disrespectful and not talking or guiding properly. He also gave me warning to cancel my flight as well. Had a better experience from Pak to Dubai still it was full of delays... First my flight was delayed then the plane came late and departed late as well. Worst food. Cabin crew was ok but everything else was so bad.

"one of the worst experience"

(Australia)

Not Verified | I had one of the worst experience with airblue travelling on 12 January 2024 from Dubai to Lahore. Flight was delayed few times and then boarding the plane while sitting for almost 3 hours with 2 announcements from the capital 1st one after more than 2 hrs and not even uttering the word sorry in both announcements. He didn't even tell the actual problem. After being offloaded from the plane, initially nobody advised about what is happening. then was advised flight will go next day. It took another 3hrs to get out of the airport (wasting almost 12 hours). We were advised to come at the airport 8am in the morning but no staff was present until 10am at the counter and even then passengers have to wait new boarding cards - so called creating new flight which wasn't done during the night or early morning.

"You've lost a loyal customer"

(United Arab Emirates)

Not Verified | For 13 years, I was a devoted customer, always choosing Airblue for my travels between Dubai and Lahore. But after my last interaction, that loyalty has been utterly shattered. My recent booking involved a roundtrip flight from Dubai to Lahore and back. Everything seemed straightforward until I added a request for additional luggage to my booking. This is when I encountered the baffling, newly-revised policy that essentially forces passengers to pay for their seats again, even though they already paid for their tickets. How does this make sense? Why should a simple baggage request trigger a demand for payment for seats already purchased? Seeking clarification, I contacted customer service, only to be placed on a lengthy hold, treated to vague responses, and ultimately told I'd have to cough up an additional 1000 PKR if I even wanted to change my seats. The sheer audacity of this demand left me speechless. This is not about the money. It's about the blatant disregard for customer satisfaction and the utter lack of logic behind this policy. It's about losing trust in an airline I've flown with for over a decade, all for the sake of 1000 PKR. Well, Airblue, consider this a goodbye. You've lost a loyal customer, and I'm certain I'm not alone. Your apathetic approach to customer service and this nonsensical policy will undoubtedly drive away those who once valued your airline. I urge you to reconsider this change, prioritize your passengers, and remember that good customer service is not a luxury, but a necessity for a thriving airline. With utter disappointment, A Former Customer of Airblue

"it is a pretty unreliable airline"

(Pakistan)

Trip Verified | It is a moderate airline. Operates pretty much like a domestic airline. The food is decent, but not great. On my return flight, they delayed the flight time for 3 hours 20 minutes without any explanation, and then took extra time before taking off. We took off almost 4 hours after the scheduled time. So, it is a pretty unreliable airline carrier if you are tight on your schedule. For the flight delay, no communication was made from the airline regarding the delay, causing further inconvenience. Most of the airline staff are very humble. The staff on my initial flight was rude. However, it was due to unnecessary chaos created by the passengers on Dubai route, so I don't blame the staff for this. To me, they were always nice and welcoming. To explain the chaos: [The passengers on this route are unapologetic, stare at the staff, call the staff again and again, insist on sitting on somebody else' seat, stand up as soon as the plan touches the ground, and much more] The planes are old, the seats are too small for a normal person. The leg space is worst. The pane windows are very dirty, looks like they have not been cleaned since few months. For someone who likes to sit on a window seat, all you will see are dirty windows and obstructed view.

"most pathetic airline service"

(Pakistan)

Trip Verified | Please do not travel through this airline. The staff is so unaccommodating. I bought my ticket via credit card. They issued me my ticket and made transactions on my card. Upon reaching the boarding counter, they denied me boarding because apparently they do not accept Fintech issued cards. No such clause was present on the ticket. They very conveniently stole money from me, made me repurchase a new ticket on cash and are now refusing to refund my money. Why was the ticket even issued and transactions made if they didn’t accept credit card payments? The staff misconduct was beyond compare to the point they were shouting at me. The most pathetic airline service I have ever flown.

"my flights were delayed"

(United Arab Emirates)

Trip Verified | The airblue after sale services are very bad, they don't follow International rules, my flights were delayed and plus they left my luggage at origin and 4 days passed but still I have no idea where to claim for my luggage and how to get. Airline station in-charge just giving us false hope but practically nothing. I will not suggest any one to use such airlines

"exceeded my expectations"

(United Kingdom)

Trip Verified | Pleasant flight, Half empty. Therefore, I had 3 seats to myself. It was my first time flying Airblue and as a regular flyer it exceeded my expectations. The meal service was great, and the crew were also polite. Would recommend any foreigner in Pakistan wishing to take a domestic flight to use Airblue. The prices are quite unreasonable however it was still cheaper than PIA, Serene Air.
