U9 New
TOEIC
I would not suggest (: recommend) booking (: making a reservation)
with Jet Max Airlines (=> Airway), as (: on account that/because) I was extremely (=> considerably/comparatively)
disappointed with their
service. In late January, I was booked (: reserved) on a
flight from Taoyuan to Tokyo, when I was informed that the flight had been delayed (: put
off/postponed/procrastinated). The gate agent said it was doubtful (=>
uncertain/suspicious/skeptical/dubious) that we would board within three hours since (: now
that/seeing that < because) the plane was broken. I had an important meeting (: conference/convention)
with a valuable (: precious/important) client to attend (: go to)! Also (: Besides/On top of that/In addition/Additionally/Plus),
they did not allow us to board the next flight because it was full (:
occupied/fully booked).
In the end (: event), I had to pay for a flight with a different
airline. I was late to my meeting and was left feeling embarrassed
in front of my client I complained
to Jet Max Airlines about the problems (: issues/topics) they caused (:
gave rise to/led to/brought about/resulted in).
However (: Yet/Still), they have not yet provided (:
given/supplied/offered) a refund even though I asked for my money back. I think the way (: how) they handled (: tackled/dealt with)
the situation was terrible (: very bad). Actually, they didn’t know how to deal
with it. I will never fly with them
again.
