Imagining Passenger Experiences

Hello,

It's the start of the second term and the beginning of Book 2.

Good luck!

This term will be discussing the different stages of the passenger processing. We start today with passenger experiences. Tell us about a time you have travelled by air. Write about any problems you have had at any step of the process before/ during/ after the flight.

You can also check passenger reviews of their experiences on the Skytrax website:http://www.airlinequality.com/main/forum.htm

Regards, RV
