Vueling Airlines Discussion
How the hell can you lose so many checked-in bags ?? Are they being deliberately sent to Lost Luggage Heaven or is it just your absolute incompetence ??

This airline has no way to speak to a customer service agent. I have tried more than 20 times over more than 1 month.. They have designed their Customer Service system to hang up on you after filling out details. EVERY TIME the system will hang up on you. Complain to your countries CONSUMER Protection agency is the ONLY way I can see to get a reply from this terrible airline. Their new Baggage charges for carry on baggage should be ILLEGAL. They are the worst customer service I have Experienced in an AIRLINE.. TERRIBLE

I took the flight from Santiago to Barcelona and then to Zurich with Vueling Airlines on 27th August. They lost my baggage. I have created a PIR at the airport. Still no any update and it seems like nobody get their luggage back. I have no hope. This is the worst airline ever. I will never ever fly with this company again....

Hello, I have a baby stroller, shall I go to the check in counter first, or can I go directly to the airplane and leave it to the crew? Thank you

I have a lost luggage while going from Paris to Barcelona. I requested for PIR and compensation. Vueling Sent me links for bank transfer 3 times but not working. Always tell me that there is a problem and Could complete the process try again later. What is the problem

So similar like others, 3cm bigger hand luggage must be stored outside the cabin for 60 eur, as a hand bagagge no protection on it. Of course much smaller lugagge of my son did not count. No explanation just rip off customers. No hot water available during the flight, the same journey on way there it normaly was, going back no… never ever again.

* * * . Everything is tiny and irritating. We had to check our bags, ˆ300 total and they put them on a different plane. Ridiculous. Everything is slow and frustrating with this airline.

I was made to check in my carry-on luggage that got lost. 20 days late NO INFO, not able to get anyone to help.

Hi all, I booked a flight yesterday, however, I decided not to use this airline. I paid FlexTime option which allows me cancellation, however, only in terms of credits. Does someone know would it be possible to get the actual money back instead of Vueling virtual credits? Thank you!!
Reply
When I was booking a flight it said hand luggage is included. And when I got the conformation email it said: "Remember that you are travelling with one underseat bag only. If you carry a second piece of hand luggage or if your underseat bag exceeds the permitted size (max. 40x20x30 cm), you will have to check it in at a cost of up to 75.00 EUR." What does that mean? Can I have 2 things to bring on the plane or not?

There needs to be a class action lawsuit against this company. What they have been doing is illegal.

Is Vueling Airlines timely and reliable for not canceling flights from Barcelona to Alicante? We are headed their in April after getting off a cruise.

Had enough... I will never buy any tickets from Vueling again. Vueling is the least reliable company ever!!!!!!!!!! I fly many times a year with other companies and never, ever, ever I have my flights changed within a week of flying.. this is the 3rd time Vueling are doing this to us. you never know what is going to happen when you travel with this shitty company. If I choose a day and a time is because they suit me and finding that they change times within a week without giving me time to find affordable alternative solutions is disgusting. THANK YOU FOR RUINING CHRISTMAS you are a disgrace

This is by far the worst airlines. They have no control over the carryon bags. Those that don't pay for them, take up almost all the space. I've seen people with 3 carryon on no one said anything.
Reply
DO NOT FLY WITH THEM!!! Canceling flights all the time, if any of the return or outbound remains they shorten your stay without offering to change both flights, refund not given if only of flight is changed... FORGET THEM!!
Reply
Flight was overbooked and unease made to take a flight the following day with 2 small children. Worst airline ! Never flying with them again !!!
Reply
Disgusting. Do not risk it. They overbook flights and your ticket is not guaranteed. I missed out on my sisters wedding because of them. I can not stress enough how bad this budget airline is. Just pay the extra money and secure your travels
Reply
I only need to use the return part of my ticket as my plans have changed and I have booked an earlier flight outbound. Do I need to tell you.about the flight that I w9nt be using
Reply
I have booked a new outbound flight and won't be using the original outbound flight but I will be using the original return. Do I need to cancel the outbound flight

My worst experience ever at Florence airport. Totally understaffed at the airport. Veuling had two people checking in two flights at the same time all in the same queue. One member of staff was for Premium customers only, total chaos. No staff to organise queue that eventually was blocking other check in desks. Baggage labelling system crashed for whole airport at one point amid scenes of jeering, slow hand clapping and anger. Nearly a two hour delay in taking off but no screen info or explaination from staff ! On arrival at Gatwick we were informed after a 30 minute wait at baggage reclaim that everyone’s baggage on that flight was still in Florence. How is that possible Veuling, airline staff must know that flights baggage is not on board. This airline’s service is a disgrace and I will never use them again. Stand by for the usual Covid excuses, not our fault, blah blah blah.

Make a claim with an online agent (25%) or make a claim in the European small claims court. It can be done online by anyone with half a brain. Good luck.

Terrible airline. I tried to book extra bag,just one, and went on their site to book bag. First attempt their site told me the payment had failed. So I tried again, same message. Then I tried again and succeeded. Then I checked bank statement to see they had charged me three times. When I phoned them they told me I couldn’t cancel. At airport the check in person told me to contact VUELING and they would refund me. When I phoned I was told this was impossible. My bank are investigating fraud but want evidence of payment failure. I only took one bag. I’ll never fly with that bunch of thieves.

I cannot access flight information. I used the code on the E-mail I was sent BUT it does not work. And the contact E-mail is not correct. Any suggestions? DJ.

I responded to their recent email regarding 25% discount on flights up to the end of September 2022. The booking procedure would not accept the SUMMER2022 code which I tried around ten times in total. I have emailed them 3 times but had no response from them and the discounted offer ran out yesterday. I tried yesterday again and received an email saying it couldn't be sent, probably due to their inbox being full. Well, there's a surprise. I just wish there was another airline that flew from Almeria to Barcelona because I would use them instead.

I have a fly tomorrow. I must to do the chek in. I loss hours trying to do it. I can't. I don't understand what I need to do. I send an email to the company and they gave not a solution.

Anyone knows if you can transport musical instruments on board in a domestic flight from Alicant to Mallorca?

Does anybody have a number for Vueling Airlines that I can call from the US? I wish I had read all these reviews before I booked my ticket! They are UNREACHABLE by every means: phone, email....I also think this should be fraudlent!
Reply
Password reset mail doesn't arrive. Also not in spam. I need to use my account to reject a new schedule for my booking. Instead of direct to Lisboa, Vueling changed the flight with a transfer on Barcelona :(

Tina I am trying to resent password, but to no avail. Please could you help. Many thanks, Tina

I was outraged by Vueling's decision to stop compensating for canceled flights amid the COVID-19 pandemic. And they did it suddenly. As a refusal (request SR_Number: 1-19142853423), the employee gave an absolutely bureaucratic explanation referring to EU Regulation 261/2004, where there is a clause about force majeure. Surprisingly, the reference was not about infection, but about adverse weather conditions, strikes, diversions, bird strikes, runway closures, etc. Speaking of COVID-19. According to the WHO's decision, not the coronavirus pandemic itself is recognized as a force majeure, but only a high-alert mode. Let me remind to all that since March 2020, Vueling was aware of Covid19 and canceled flights, thereby increasing its high-alert mode for control of disease spreding. So my flight to Barcelona GCR7MM was canceled in may 2020 with full compensation. My other flight to Barcelona in July 2020, JDPFVZ, was also cancelled for the same reason, which the company started telling me about a month before that date. I fully accepted the company's offer of compensation in the form of a flight credit and went through the entire procedure proposed on the site. The result on the screen convinced me that the issue was resolved positively by analogy with the previous one. Suddenly, after a two-week wait and an additional request, an unexpected categorical refusal. Tried to explain myself at the following address: aptreclamacion@vueling.com - no answer by human, only robot.

I also checked the flight with my booking code " Booking does not exist".How can this be ? Has any one encountered this ? Check your Junk Mail. Sometimes Vueling messages end up there

Guest : Hi, Vueling lost my luggage on July 4th from Amsterdam yo London Luton. I filed a report at the airport and have emailed them receipts and relevant info such as PIR number, bagge number etc. It is now September 26th and even after sendning them the information many, many times they respond with an automatic email to ask again for me to send the PIR information. Very frustrating. Is there another body I can contact or route I can take to get compensation? Thanks, Ian Yes Go directly to head office in Barcelona. You can Google the address

I have had a problem with Vueling since June 2019. Our flight then was delayed by 5 hours. On their website you are directed to an outfit called AirHelp do not go with them, I am still waiting for compo and often send me an email saying "we're nearly there". and they are going to take half of my compensation for the privilege. I also have a Covid 19 claim for a flight we booked for June 2020. They are trying to fob me off with a credit note but under Denied Boarding Reg 261/1004 I'm entitled to a refund. I have emailed them saying I don't want a credit note there was no response. Tried phoning but the menu just sends you round in circles back to the beginning Tried going through their website but you can go so far then you're blocked when you chose the refund choice. Absolutely so unprofessional. It's not if they can't afford to pay. They made 200million euros last year.

They cancelled my flight on 24 March due to COVID 19 and said to apply for a refund. Still no response and after several emails and phone calls to their customer services I am just told they are looking into it with no other explanation. Appalling.

Do not use this airline, they are completely uncaring and inconsiderate. I tried to cancel bookings for flights I had in May 2020 because we are in Australia and unable to travel due to travel bans and all they kept telling me was the flight was not cancelled. In these exceptional times I ignorantly thought that I would be treated in a considerate and humane manner but the consultant just kept repeating the flights were not cancelled.

Vueling's website is poorly designed. It ignores the user's IP number and defaults to Spanish, irrespective of the location of the visitor. Sometimes during the ticketing process, after forcing it to English using vueling.com/en the ticketing process goes back into Spanish. It seems to me that Vueling has the most incompetent website of any European airline.

I am looking for my luggage. It hasn't arrived to my destination in New York. I departed from Rome Fiumicino on December 22, 2019 at 4:00PM flight VY6105 Tag Number VY238455 Rome to Barcelona then to New York. Please contact me with information. All your phone numbers don't work. If I do not find my luggage I will file a lawsuit against the airline in California. Negligence in losing my luggage is the liability of the airline

How can you ignore the following ref Numbers--1-1329430894-----1-12275167594----1-13737004826. and just keep sending out cold unfriendly unhelpful automated emails in responds to my claim for a refund

No one is taking my phone calls nor giving me updates. I tried ringing 4 times today and was put on hold for 15 minutes each time and then cut off and told to ring back later. Wh ere are my precious things? It is unjust. 22,6kg suitcase has simply evaporated into thin air after I queued for an hour and 20 Minutes at the airport to check it in.

Guest : Traveled from Barcelona to Paris and I will never fly with Vueling Airlines again. Not only our luggage has been lost for 13 days now. But our file was closed by mistake twice without any explanation. There has been no follow-ups, we have been calling each day again and again to enquire about the situation. I have never seen any worse customer service. This is simply unacceptable. They are treating us as hostage. Beware and never fly with this company. Can you get in touch with me via my facebook page, 'Vueling Mishandled Luggage'?

Guest : We are experiencing the same now, luggage lost when we travelled from Palermo to Dubrovnik via Rome. Four days have gone by and I have just got a call from Dubrovnik that ONE of our suitcases are there - what about the other one? We checked them in together so this is very suspicious. I will never fly with Vueling again, they have been so unhelpful doing this process. I have started a little mini campaign on instagram #donotravelwithvueling because I honestly don't understand that airline is still allowed to operate with all those complaints. Guess we have to make use of all the channels we got as customers. Well, the more we are to fights for our rights, the faster this company will be blocked and not allowed in the business. Join me : www.facebook.com/permalink.php?story_fbi... Again and Again: I speak English French German and Spanish! Over a week now, and they pretend reimbursing 400ˆ for the "damage". Suspicious is the term. I prefer using the stronger one directly : THIEVES!

Guest : If I could rate this airline with zero stars I would. This airline is a joke. It has been six weeks since Vueling lost my luggage and I keep getting the run-around. The plane itself was falling apart with ripped seats etc. I booked through Iberia which is another failure of an airline. No integrity. I keep being told outright lies because I guess they don't want to close the case and compensate me for my lost luggage.
