Hola Seba, muy buena la nota. Se sabe cuál o cuáles son los motivos de las constantes reprogramaciones de GOL? Fueron de las últimas en volver, después habiendo anunciado el regreso en Diciembre 2021 sólo lo terminaron haciendo pero con destinos y frecuencia reducida… Tenemos un vuelo comprado en Julio 2020 y aún no pudimos viajar. Esperábamos hacerlo el próximo mes pero nuevamente reprogramaron las escalas con destino a Brasilia para Junio.
Buenas Lucas, siempre dependerá de la demanda y el ingreso que puede dejar a la compañía. Hoy por hoy, los vuelos internacionales estan marginados por las restricciones y el poco interés del viajero a salir al exterior. Lamentablemente GOL no ha logrado captar la demanda actual con Argentina.
Si tu vuelo es al Caribe, difícilmente vayas a conseguir algo ahora. Acércate a las oficinas de GOL en Aeroparque, así podes reacomodar en un vuelo más conveniente y con alguien físico.
Gol reprogramó mi vuelo dividiendo a mi familia y no puedo comunicarme con nadie para solucionarlo. No atienden al cliente.
