Shelley Goforth was at the San Luis Obispo airport on Wednesday and had to rebook after her flight was canceled on Christmas Eve due to mechanical problems.
“Here at this airport in San Luis, everyone was working hard to rebook,” said Gofors. “We took a good loss. We were first class, but when we rebooked, they ran out of first class seats. It cost a lot.”
Debrah Delcoure said her partner is experiencing a travel nightmare unable to leave Mexico. She said she would have to find a completely different itinerary and she noticed the price increase.
“I had to buy a completely new ticket from a different airline because it was scheduled on Volaris, but it was just canceled,” said Delcoure.
