    They trick you into downloading an app and buying a ticket for a bus you can never get on. I waited over an hour with about 20 other people while three busses passed us. One of the drivers even waved and laughed. I was forced to buy a ticket in advance. I gave up after three busses passed our group by. I called and was told that this happens, and I could not get a refund.

    We are disappointed to hear of your experience with the LAX FlyAway.  If you can provide the date, times and location you were trying to use the FlyAway, it will help us to investigate the issue with our contracted FlyAway ticketing and bus operator.  Comments and complaints may be submitted directly to **************************************** these are received directly by *********** World Airports and not the contracted operator.  We apologize for any inconvenience.  A representative from FlyAway will reach out to you for more information and resolution.

    I am rejecting this response because: I asked for a refund of the $10 I was tricked into spending in the app. An empty apology doesn't work. Ten bucks doesn't begin to cover the time wasted, and the frustration. 

    It was September 27th, at 7pm.

    Sincerely,

    On 4 July, 2022 my family and I were going to leave our vehicle at the LAX FlyAway parking structure in Van Nuys and take one of their shuttles to LAX that same morning. We pre-ordered out tickets as well as the reserved parking...then, we found out on Saturday eve (2 July) that my wife was COVID positive. Our trip to Japan was immediately canceled. After spending numerous canceling all of our pre-paid excursions, we tried to cancel out LAX FlyAway bus tickets to no avail. I even called the headquarters and received a terse, "we don't refund these passes!" My question is this: why am I able to cancel the LAX FlyAway parking pass in Van Nuys, but not the shuttle tix to LAX? Particularly when my spouse is COVID positive! These are extenuating circumstances and we should receive a prompt refund!

    They have offered little opportunity to resolve this matter--w/ no guarantee of me getting my money back.
