Managed by liars with no accountability
I have flown more times than I can count in my lifetime. I have flown from some of the notoriously bad airports - Mumbai, DeGaulle, Heathrow, Orlando - but never in my life had I encountered such a rude and useless shower as in Napoli.
First, we missed our flight to Dublin because a late middle aged female member of staff with visibly dyed red hair put us in the wrong queue. I tried checking the boards to find our check in counter but the boards weren't updating. we spent two hours queueing in the wrong queue, which might i remind you we were told was the right queue. Because of the length of the queue and the fact it was the wrong queue (remember, we were put in this queue by a member of staff) by the time we got to the counter our plane was already flying. I went back to the woman who put us in that queue and told her what had happened, and she tried to deny having ever told us that was the right queue and then had the gall to mock me for missing my flight. Disgusting behaviour. we went to the counter to try buying tickets only to see three people all on their phones with 'closed' signs in front of themselves. When we asked how much it would cost to fly to Ireland, the person at the desk lied to our faces and said there were no more flights to Ireland that day. We had already found a flight with Lufthansa at that stage and there was another flight with KLM that night, but they would rather lie to your face than lift a finger. In the end my girlfriend stormed off, and I called shareholder relations at Lufthansa. Security was another nightmare, with multiple staff on each scanner all giving conflicting directions. Past security there is next to no seating, we sat on our suitcases or on stairs while we waited because there was a severe lack of seating elsewhere. while waiting for the flight with Lufthansa, I got in touch with the airport's complaints line, and was told yet another lie by the airport - no such employee who is female, middle aged, and with dyed hair - exists.
