      Back in 2019 our original trip was changed by Sunwing therefore we received a voucher $100 per traveller ($300). When we contacted Sunwing last year the voucher was to expire Sept 2022 however due to COVID and health concerns we did not travel in 2022. We are planning a trip this year in August with Sunwing and requested and exception to use the vouchers. I know this is not a “COVID voucher “ however since these vouchers have been extended to 2026, I would think an exception can be made for a few extra months and given the fact that we travelling in August. I was informed by the sales representative that an exception claim was completed (#********) however it will most likely be declined. I also asked to escalate my concerns to a supervisor and was informed that I could not speak to anyone.

      I was sold an all inclusive vacation from Sunwing! I travelled to Cuba in March and was booked at **** ***** in Santa Maria. We booked a family vacation for 4 of us. The resort was a disaster! They had 20% occupancy and most of the resort was closed. There was no food ! 2 restaurants were closed, there was no management on site. Our flights were delayed over 4.5 hours going to Cuba and 1 hour coming home. The flight to Cuba was delayed because they did not have a flight crew booked. They ran out of food and drink on the flight home! The bugs at the resort were out of control. I’ve been to Cuba 5 times this was the worst experience ever. It was not an all inclusive. The service was poor and it was not a 4.5 star. There was no food! I contacted Sunwing via email 50 times no response. I called and left messages and 10 times no responses. I don’t know what else to do to hold them accountable! I want a serious refund to my credit card for this horrendous trip ***** ******* ************ * ****** **** ****** ******* *** ***

      Complaint: ********



      I am rejecting this response because:

      I did not make my complaint when I got home from the vacation.  I made the complaint when the flight was delayed because they did not have a flight crew and I was not notified.  That was number 1 issue, we were delayed over 4 hours.  We booked an all inclusive resort from Sunwing.  The resort was mostly closed, they had no food and the service was poor to say the least.  I paid 8000.00 for a week away vacation only to starve and be eaten by bugs.  This is not the holiday I was sold.  You must be accountable, stand behind your resorts you sell.  Clearly you have not visited this property.  No food no services, no entertainment. I received nothing that was sold to me.  My room was poor, we had to change 2 times.  I wanted to change resorts and Sunwing wanted 4000.00 more to go to a resort of lesser quality .  The flight was delayed coming home and ran out of food and drinks.  There were starving people in the plane to come home and Sunwing could not service the need.  The customer service from this company has been terrible! I had to file a complaint with the BBB, next will be consumer affairs.  I want a refund plain and simple.  Sunwing **** to me and did not deliver on a single area.  The resort had no food!  You understand.  I had to go to other resorts to eat and we had to taxi into town to ho to restaurants to eat!  Not one aspect of this vacation was positive.  I’ve been to Cuba 5 times, never had these issues.  Shame on Sunwing for **** and treatment to the customers.

      I am rejecting this response because:

      It is unfair to ask a client to take a lesser amount and get paid out sooner or ask for more and be delayed months.  Further, I submitted my out of pocket expenses to be reimbursed as we had to go out for food.  I submitted my expenses totaling over 800.00.  Something we should not have to pay for at an all inclusive.  Shame on Sunwing for promoting this resort having no food, closed restaurants, no entertainment, poor service, no management presence, Sunwing representative on site offered to move us to a lesser star resort for 4000.00US more in cash.  * ***** **** ** **** ******

      Complaint: ********



      I am rejecting this response because:

      Telling a client to wait and be patient is not moving in a positive direction.  End of the day I was sold by Sunwing an all inclusive vacation for 4.  We decided to pay more for a 5 star resort so we would not have any issues.  We paid up for the security of a good vacation.  

      the resort had no food.  Look at the google reviews.  There are a number of sane complaints.

      service at the resort was poor at best. 

      No management presence.  I spoke to the Sunwing rep on site and he asked for 4000.00 US cash for us to change resorts to a 3.5 star.  ****** ********** 

      flight delayed going to Cuba 4 hours plus!

      fight delayed coming back to Ottawa 1.5 hours

      no food or snacks on flight home from Cuba!  They ran out and half the plane got nothing. 

      I sent many many many emails and calls without any response.  Only when I filed with the BBB did I get a response. Not good business.

      I’m told to wait and wait and be patient .  Sunwing took my money paid in ******* month before the vacation.  

      I am out of pocket over 1000.00 for food, taxi costs while on an all inclusive vacation. 

      Bugs were terrible! 

      rooms were terrible

      resort more than half closed down. 

      no ice cream, no buffet 

      2 a la cart restaurants with the worst food ever! 

      no accountability by anyone! 

      we waited 3 hours for our luggage once we got to the terminal in Ottawa! 

      good thing Sunwing is closing

      Mr. *******,

      As previously stated, you will need to communicate with the Post Travel Team. Your file is still active. 

      Sunwing is not closing. If you are refering to the recent ownership change, we can confirm that Sunwing
      Airlines will be integrated into ******* as part of the ******* Group’s one jet
      aircraft operating certificate (AOC) strategy. This is a long-term move that
      will unlock greater scale and create more opportunities for Sunwing Airlines
      employees under the ******* Group. While exact timelines are still being
      determined, the integration is expected to take up to a couple of years.

      The
      tour operator is not impacted by the airline integration. As the leading tour
      operator in Canada, Sunwing Vacations will continue to operate as normal
      offering the same great products and service in Canada and in destination. As
      part of the ******* Group, we will leverage the ******* network to drive
      increased scale and growth in the sun leisure segment alongside the ******* Vacations brand.

      Sincerely,

      Sunwing Vacations

      I am rejecting this response because: there is no responsibility taken.  I paid for 4 people to attend an all inclusive 5 star resort.  This is how it was sold to me by Sunwing.  The resort had no food, no services, no entertainment, no management presence.  Did I mention no food.  I paid to dollar expecting at least be able to eat food.  I had to take my family out for meals, costing me taxi cab fees and hundreds of dollars for meals!  The resort has no comment.  Look at the reviews durning my vacation time!  Shame on Sunwing for ******** our money .  I should be compensated 50% at a minimum.

      Dear Mr. *******,

      The Resolution Agent is trying to assist you. Your previous request of a refund of $800 for out of pocket expenses related to meals was reviewed. After careful review of the receipts, only $267.67 CAD were related to meals - food, drinks and snacks. The Duty-Free items, alcohol, souvenirs, etc. were not applicable. The purchase made on the day of departure at liquor store located at inside Santa Clara airport was also not considered. 

      We are sorry that you remain unhappy with our efforts to resolve fully to your satisfaction. 

      Sincerely,

      Sunwing Vacations.

      My wife and I booked a trip to the ***** ***** ******** February 11-18, 2023. When we arrived there was no water at the resort. We couldn’t flush our toilets or shower anywhere on the resort. On the third day, we were moved to the ***** ***** rainbow. It was a party resort and not what we wanted for a relaxing vacation. When we got back to New Brunswick we filed a complaint with Sunwing and they said they were too busy with complaints to deal with us and they would contact us in 30 days. After 30 days they contacted us and said they still were too busy to handle our complaint. We haven’t heard from them since. We paid approximately $3,000 for our all inclusive vacation and we are requesting a full refund.

      To whom it may concern,

      I am writing to you in regards to my trip that I had book to Cuba on Feb.12 to Feb. 19th . The booking number was *********. the booking was for four people but as it got closer Mr. ******* ***** ******* was unable to go with us as his passport was still not in for him to go. So, I had to cancel his part of the trip. In which I was told would be a voucher and that to call when i got back home from Cuba. I called today in regards to that they had emailed it to me I had also asked if my dad can use it as I am unable to go travelling any time soon as I am starting to do physio on my knee as having problems walking with it and was told if this does not work would possibly had to get it operated on. I was told that I cannot change it over to someone else s name so they could use it was going to give it to my dad as he was the one that paid for the remaining of the trip on his credit card. But just speaking to someone today with Sun wing was told that they do not fly into Hallifax form Hamilton only Toronto and my dad is 82 years old and that s to much walking for him to do so.
      I am just wondering if there is any way of getting a refund in the amount of 1,565.00. for the worry-free voucher as like I said I am unable to use it and would hate to miss out on all this money if it's possible just to put it back onto my dad's credit card His name is **** ****** you may see his name in the paper work not sure thought. Also my suite case was damaged and now can not be use it. I have emailed them a few times like I was told to do on the phone and no one has reached out to me about this. All I would like is for my money to be refunded back to the credit card for this. I have been told by many people that they have gotten their money refunded with out emailing back and forth like I have been doing. I do not think this right I always fly to Cuba and have never had this problem.



      I can be reached at this email or *******@******.com as well. also ************
      Hope that you have a good day looking forward to hearing back from you.

      I don’t get why I can not have my money back as I am not travelling anytime soon nore to s my dad or husband or the other person that went with us on the trip I have talked to many people and they have gotten their money back with out a problem so I don’t get why I can’t have my money back as o could use it at this point of time as I can’t work much do to my knee problems and need to pay my bills. This don’t want to lose all this money that I have paid for this part of the trip because I can’t use this any time soon nore can anyone else. I will never be doing this again if I ever do decide to take any other trip. Also maybe people should be told about the insurance and other things at time of booking as none of us were told about this when booking the trip. I will never be booking a trip again with this one line stuff as nothing is ever explained properly to people. Again all I want is my money back on the credit card thank you. If you do it for other you could do it for me as well .

      Hello,
      We booked our family all-inclusive vacation at the ********* ***** ******* Varadero on the Sunwing website. When we arrived at the resort, we were shocked because of the unsanitary conditions, poor customer service, and a lack in the selection of food in this resort. We asked a Sunwing representative to allow us to switch to a better resort, and she recommended us ***** ***** **** Varadero but asked us to pay $300 in addition to the $ 6000 that was paid before.
      We moved from ********* ***** ******* to ***** ***** **** hoping to have more sanitary conditions and a variety of food. Unfortunately, the sanitary conditions of the food court at ***** ***** **** were even worse than it was at the previous resort.
      This hotel has, unhygienic conditions with a huge quantity of cockroaches traveling everywhere.
      Evidently, a Sunwing representative noticed this horrible condition of the resort, but she even didn't bother to demand the management of this resort take any measures to improve the situation and make Sunwing clients satisfied with the vacation they paid for.
      Sunwing sold us this low-end hotel as a five-star hotel. This is an areal ****!!! Thank you
      Sincerely

      Hello,

      First of all, we have never been to Cuba previously.
      We could not even imagine to ourselves that we would have to eat food with cockroaches at five star hotels food courts.

      We visited another poor country such as Bulgaria and paid way less money for the all inclusive vacations. Even though it was a poor country, the service of the resort was excellent and we enjoyed it very much.

      We didn't win the lottery, and did not get any heritage from rich relatives. We worked very hard to be able to take our twins to celebrate their eighteenth birthday anniversary.

      Unfortunately, it was the most horrible, suffocating, vacation anyone could ever imagine. 

      Any respectful travel company which respects its clients and wants them to continue to travel with it would compensate their dissatisfied clients at the least, a voucher in the amount of $1000 for future vacations.
       
      To be honest, I have seen a lot of complaints about the service of Sunwing, and I hope you won't force our hand with your decision to be ones of those truly disappointed clients. 

      Thank you for your cooperation.

      To Whom It May Concern,

      I am submitting this legal claim to request a refund for the return flight portion of my vacation package from Vancouver, BC to Puerto Vallarta, Mexico, purchased on August 1, 2022, for myself and my wife, using *** ****** **** ending ****.

      Upon arrival in Mexico on December 14, 2022, we had a pleasant trip with no issues. However, when it came time for our return flight on December 21, 2022, we were informed that it had been cancelled and rescheduled for the following day. Unfortunately, this cancellation continued daily until December 27, 2022, when we were forced to make alternative travel arrangements due to a medical emergency, work commitments, and other life impacts.

      Despite waiting for seven days, the return flight portion of our vacation package was not fulfilled by ******* Airlines, and we were forced to purchase a replacement flight through ***** Airline, as evidenced by the ******** receipt.

      As a result, I am requesting a refund for the return flight portion of our vacation package, as this service was not provided by ******* Airlines. I believe that it is only fair and just for me to receive a full refund for this portion of the package.

      I hope for a swift resolution to this matter, and I thank you for your attention to this issue.

      Sincerely,
      ********

      Dear Sunwing Vacations,

      Thank you for your response regarding our flight delay complaint. While we appreciate the vouchers offered as a gesture of goodwill, we would like to request a cash refund for the unpaid portion of our tickets. We understand that we have received $500 each as compensation for the 7-day delay, however, we believe that this amount is inadequate for the inconvenience we faced. We were stranded in Mexico for seven days and both my wife and I were sick during that time because of this plan chance. It was an extremely difficult experience for us as we ran out of our daily medications and our jobs were impacted.
      We kindly ask for your reconsideration of our request for a cash refund. We look forward to your prompt response.

Aparat from that, I'm just requeting a refund for the unused portion of my itinerary which shouldn't be a that much for sunch a big company. 



      Sincerely,

      I have exhausted all ordinate means of contacting Sunwing Airlines to retrieve my suitcase or know its fate. I arrived by ***** on 25th December from Cayo Coco to Toronto and after 10 hours waiting for luggage, I was asked to fill ******** ************ ****** *** ****** for a Large ******* **** Red color suitcase and was told that Airline will call me the next day. That was 21 days ago. I have made countless phone calls since, multiple times daily to Sunwing Central Baggage at *** ************ from 25th Dec 2022 and no one answers the phone. I have evidence of hundreds of my hours wasted on the phone. Only twice, I was able to leave a message but no one called me back.

      ******** * ** * *** ********* Invoice #3 shows the full amount presented to me and paid in full for the 4 passengers on the trip. Then I get a phone call on Dec 9th and Sunwing tells me that I owe an additional $370. For what? Sunwing claims they made a mistake and charged the incorrect amount for passenger #4, however, that isn't true when you look at Invoice #3. I asked to speak to a manager and was put on hold *** ** ************ ****** ** ***** I was told the Manager would call me. They didn't call me, instead, they blocked my ability to check in to my flights until the outstanding balance was paid. If I understand correctly: their agent made a mistake in the booking price, the invoice that was presented to me was paid in full, and then they blocked my flights ** ******* *** **** ** ***** ******** ******** ******** ********* I want to be reimbursed for the additional amount charged on the 4th invoice.

      I am the individual who did all of the bookings, the payments were all completed on my credit card and, if you checked the phone calls, you would hear that all of the phone calls are with me. I handled the bookings and all changes for the passengers. 

      I have ******** a screenshot from the original booking confirmation that shows the details were sent to my ***** account.
