Re. The complaint about an overbooked flight

 Dear Sir,

It is to inform you that I reserved seat number A34 in your airline on 13th December 20XX to fly from New York to California on 18th December 20XX through Flight no 3320. I received all of my booking details through text messages and emails. I was informed to arrive two hours before flight time due to the rush of the holiday season.

When I reached the airport at the exact reporting time, I was told that my seat was already reserved. Through inquiring further I came to know that my seat was overbooked. I tried a lot to get another seat on the flight, but I was not heard. I also reported this event to the complaint section at the airport but it did not do any good.

As a result of that mistaken reservation by your team, I bore a huge loss as I was to fly to California for an important meeting related to my business, and not attending the meeting resulted in a tremendous loss on my end. It not only cost me monetarily due to business but also affected the reputation of my company as not attending such an important conference-cum-meeting was considered highly unprofessional

Now, I demand you to compensate for the loss due to the trouble created by the mismanagement of your airline company. I claim two high-class seats being reserved in your airline from Brooklyn to London along with a payment of $500 as compensation. I am waiting for your response which should not exceed the limit of ten days otherwise I would be compelled to take legal action against your airline and the trouble fell on me due to this.
Thank you

Sincerely

Re. Complaint letter for Double-booking of the flight

Dear [Recipient],

I am writing this complaint letter to you to inform you and get assistance from you on an abrasive experience with your airline.

On April 10th, 20XX, I reserved two seats in the name of Mr. and Mrs. Jeffery to fly from Islamabad to Toronto, Canada. I was scheduled to fly on 18th April 20XX from Islamabad International Airport at 23:00 on flight number 4543-KN. Shortly after arriving at the airport, I was told that I could not fly by this plane as my seat was overbooked due to some misunderstanding. Despite making all the payments and confirmation emails from your company, I could not travel.

I and my husband were traveling to Canada to attend a funeral and missing the flight ended up missing the rituals. Due to such great mental stiffness caused by the mismanagement done by your team and the frustrating experience, I feel I am entitled to compensation. I would claim a refund of the payment made for the scheduled flight along with an amount of $600 as a penalty.

I am looking forward to your immediate response within one week to resolve the matter and compensate for the problem caused by your airline. In other cases, I shall report your airline to the authorities and will maintain my plea to take strict legal actions against your company which may cost you more.

Thank you

Sincerely
