Trying to get our son, who was studying abroad, home from Argentina. It's been a nightmare for obvious reasons resulting in multiple flight cancellations, rebookings, credits, etc.. My wife and I took turns waiting on hold yesterday to talk to an airline representative - it was about 6 hours worth. Not whining about the airlines, COVID 19, or the length of time holding.
The music they play while you are on hold is excruciatingly bad and on a continuous loop mixed with "Thank you for your patience, a representative will be with you soon. Have you tried our website?"
Delta - I can't get that Delta theme out of my head - I even had dreams that incorporated it last night. Ba Ba Da Dummm.
United - Talk Talk Talk Talk Talk
AeroMexico - Even on the lowest volume setting, it was so loud. It just kept coming in 90 seconds waves of a grainy classical piece with some spanish yammering. Could only last about 20 minutes before having to go outside to get away from it. The first 7 minutes were tolerable. Then you started humming along. Then it started piercing through your eardrums, driving a spike into your brain, and then reached into your soul, sucking out the last of your will.
Oh God, it was terrible. My son got out of Argentina and is about to land in Panama. Then to Houston. Then home about midnight tonight.
