‘Air Canada will ruin my wedding’: Frustrated passengers lash out amid ongoing delays
Global News
According to a spokesperson from Air Canada: “Aviation is a complex ecosystem made up of many independent players, including airports."
Forty-seven year old Tarick Ali, from Ottawa, has been planning his wedding for more than a year. But now, “Air Canada will ruin my wedding,” he fears.
Ali, along with 200 of his friends and family members, have flown from different parts of the world to Trinidad for the special day.
“I wanted it to be absolutely perfect,” Ali, who flew in to his wedding destination on July 3 via Air Canada, told Global News Thursday.
But, despite all his meticulous planning, the thing that didn’t make it to the wedding destination with Ali was his luggage — carrying his wedding suits.
“Everything is bought, everything is ready. All I had to do was show up in my outfit,” he said. “But everything is in my luggage and my luggage never arrived.”
“It’s just absolutely mind-boggling what is happening. It’s going to ruin everything we had planned,” said Ali.
Ali has been calling Air Canada every day since his arrival in Trinidad, multiple times on some days — to try and figure out where his luggage is — hopeful it will arrive in time for his wedding on July 15.
“You will be on the phone for three hours with no response. No one picks up,” Ali said.
