Air France - Book a flight 4+

The “Scan Document” feature has no “Scan” button. Also…

Firstly, I was unable to enter a second passport’s information correctly using the app. I ended up having to log on to the actual website. Mind you, I have been a member of Flying Blue for two decades, and had both passportd keyed in twenty years ago. Why did your system delete a whole second passport from my account?

Returning to the app, I was prompted to add an image of my passport. It took me a moment to figure out why the scan screen partly grays out the actual window— you don’t explain positioning to the user anywhere. And worse: post-scan, I now see that the app has entered my name completely misspelled! So I had to correct that… Another minute of unnecessary frustration.

Lastly, I must mention: my one current booking, although listed on the app, is missing from my AirFrance account in the browser window of the same account. What’s even more disturbing, despite entering the booking number several times onto the website, AirFrance refuses to recognize its existence, which I find troubling. (And yes, I typed the capital “O” correctly— why you put “O”s into a booking number instead of a more sensible zero “0” is frankly unintuitive!)

The worst app ever

It took me 2 hours to reset my password and get it to work. I finally booked my ticket then I get a conformation email then another confrontation email. My ticket was booked twice. I called the support line, I was told the system is down, and they asked me to call back after 2 hours. I called back the second time, their system is till down. The third time I called an employe answered me, I told her what happened and she started to laugh. I am not sure what was funny about my horrible experience. I got upset and hang up, and called back again, this time I was able to speak to a supervisor. She then voided one ticket and now I have to wait 24 to 48 hours for the refund. I could choice a different airline but I have always traveled with AirFrance, however it’s a big disappointment this time, this is has to be the last time I travel with them. Customer service is what makes a company or break it. When I choice a company, I choice them for their Belief as company and their customer service. You guys are a big disappointment, and this will be the last time I will travel with you. I hope you technically improve your website/ app and so as your customer service skills... most of client pay extra money to be treated good or at lest right. BTW this the first time that that I review an app or a service ! You can only imagine how horrible my experience was.

Misleading advice

I was due to fly back from Paris to San Francisco on a flight at 10:25 AM tomorrow morning. I was checking for an upgrade at about 8 o’clock this morning and they told me that I wouldn’t be able to find one until 1025 or later. Fortunately, I went back to my computer to try to access the upgrade ahead of time because I was worried that I would miss it. At about 1015. I saw an upgrade available and indeed there were only two seats left where I was told at 8 o’clock this morning that they were 12. I took one of the two seats. It wasn’t a window seat as there was none available and that’s what I would’ve preferred. However, I was able to get one. I’m sure that if I’d waited till 1025 I would not have had a seat the information the person gave me this morning misdirected me and almost caused me great disappointment. I am disappointed in Air France for basically almost tricking me out of the upgrade.
