20 astonishing holiday complaints
Presented to you, for your entertainment and pleasure – 20 of
the most outrageous, ridiculous and stupid travel complaints made to tour
operators
A recent survey from Thomas Cook and ABTA reveals 20 of the most
ridiculous complaints by holiday-makers made to their travel agent.
1. "I think it should be explained in the brochure that
the local store does not sell proper biscuits like custard creams or ginger
nuts."
2. "It's lazy of the local shopkeepers to close in the
afternoons. I often needed to buy things during 'siesta' time - this should be
banned."
3. "On my holiday to Goa in India, I was disgusted to
find that almost every restaurant served curry. I don't like spicy food at
all."
4. "We booked an excursion to a water park but no-one
told us we had to bring our swimming costumes and towels."
5. A tourist at a top African Game Lodge over looking a water
hole, who spotted a visibly aroused elephant, complained that the sight of this
rampant beast ruined his honeymoon by making him feel "inadequate".
6. A woman threatened to call police after claiming that
she'd been locked in by staff. When in fact, she had mistaken the "do not
disturb" sign on the back of the door as a warning to remain in the room.
7. "The beach was too sandy."
8. "We found the sand was not like the sand in the
brochure.Your brochure shows the sand as yellow but it was white."
9. A guest at a Novotel in Australia complained his soup was
too thick and strong. He was inadvertently slurping the gravy at the time.
10. "Topless sunbathing on the beach should be banned.
The holiday was ruined as my husband spent all day looking at other
women."
11. "We bought 'Ray-Ban' sunglasses for five Euros from a
street trader, only to find out they were fake."
12. "No-one told us there would be fish in the sea. The
children were startled."
13. "It took us nine hours to fly home from Jamaica to
England it only took the Americans three hours to get home."
14. "I compared the size of our one-bedroom apartment to
our friends' three-bedroom apartment and ours was significantly smaller.."
15. "The brochure stated: 'No hairdressers at the
accommodation’. We’re trainee hairdressers - will we be OK staying there?"
16. "There are too many Spanish people. The receptionist
speaks Spanish. The food is Spanish. Too many foreigners now live abroad."
17. "We had to queue outside with no air
conditioning."
18. "It is your duty as a tour operator to advise us of
noisy or unruly guests before we travel."
19. "I was bitten by a mosquito, no-one said they could
bite."
20. "My fiancé and I booked a twin-bedded room but we
were placed in a double-bedded room. We now hold you responsible for the fact
that I find myself pregnant. This would not have happened if you had put us in
the room that we booked."
