| 1314594 | 2012-11-24 20:01:00 | Found this story in the NZ Herald this morning www.nzherald.co.nz Something did not add up, ie overstayed his visa by 55 days and he did not know it ! Did 30 seconds research and found this story www.nzherald.co.nz Maybe there are 2 Jarvis Carters who both live in Picton and have bad luck in travel to the USA :) |

The clown thinks he has some special sort of entitlement and I worked out why researching his father. | prefect (6291) | ||

Only last year on Christmas Day a flight I was on to the Boxing Day Cricket Test at the MCG got diverted to Sydney owing to a you beaut Melbourne Storm. Ok, these things happen, but it was impossible to contact anyone from Air NZ. We were taken to a Hotel which provided first class service, but there were no arrangements made to get us to Melbourne. In desperation I booked my own ticket to Melbourne and got to the MCG with about 20 runs on the scoreboard. However, when I asked for reimbursement I was told to get lost as they didn’t guarantee they would get you to where you were booked, :eek: and to claim on my Travel Insurance. This I did and eventually got paid out by them. Sure it was Christmas Day, but the Hotel to their credit catered unexpectedly for two plane loads (500 people?) from Auckland and Christchurch, whilst Air NZ just provided an endless tape recording advising they would answer you shortly. I don’t know what happened to the others, but nobody could raise Air NZ on the number provided. :( |

If I had known what it would be like I would have gone through immigration for the two hour stop over. Got stuck in a room with no drinks dispenser of any sort and no entertainment. I was almost bleating like a sheep after that. |
