This calculation is based on the Kano Model, which is used to measure customer satisfaction)</em></p><p>Among these factors, 'Customer Service' is the most critical driver of passenger experience, as it sets the tone for the entire customer journey. Customers value clear communication, responsiveness, and assistance from airline representatives.</p><p>'Flight Delays' and 'Flight Cancellations' are the following biggest pain points, as they can significantly disrupt travel plans and cause inconvenience. In addition to these factors, customers prioritize efficient and organized 'Boarding' processes and an easy and hassle-free 'Booking Experience.'</p><h4><strong>Dig Deep into Top Customer Concern - Customer Service</strong></h4><p>The analysis revealed that a staggering 67% of 14,000 passenger reviews had a negative experience with customer service. The complaints are centered around long wait times, unhelpful customer service chat lines, inability to answer questions, lack of escalation on calls, and rude staff behavior.</p><p> </p><figure class="w-richtext-align-center w-richtext-figure-type-image"><div><img src="https://cdn.prod.website-files.com/66dffa95f947b62fb545cc4d/66e826614f0a1d5001f91cd7_Img%252016-01.png" alt="Dig Deep into Top Customer Concern - Customer Service" loading="lazy"/></div></figure><p> </p><p>These findings indicate that airlines must prioritize improving their customer service experience to retain customers and improve their reputation.</p><h4><strong>Sub-themes of Customer Service that Contributes Higher Negative Experience</strong></h4><p>Check the subthemes, which are the frequently appeared terms in customer reviews about Customer Service.</p><figure class="w-richtext-align-center w-richtext-figure-type-image"><div><img src="https://cdn.prod.website-files.com/66dffa95f947b62fb545cc4d/66e35b3896879eec6843e25c_Slide%252007%2520(0-00-13-19)%2520(1)-1.jpeg" alt="Sub-themes of Customer Service " loading="lazy"/></div></figure><p>The top subtheme contributing to higher negative experiences in overall customer service is customer service supervisors, which includes dismissive and unprofessional behavior, no helpfulness or kindness, lack of compassion, little or no information provided, an attitude of impatience, and nastiness in their tone of voice.</p><p>Another subtheme is the negative experience around response time, which involves not receiving timely responses to inquiries, being unable to speak to a human being, not receiving timely compensation for claims, and missing important events such as funerals, weddings, and Christmas celebrations.</p><p>Furthermore, the negative experience around email updates includes difficulty updating contact details, unsatisfactory responses, being lied to in writing, and having flights canceled without notification.</p><p>Lastly, the negative experience around telephone calls involves poor communication, long wait times, calls being cut off, lack of staff to manage calls, and promised callbacks not coming within the specified time frame.</p><h4><strong>Sub-themes of ‘Flight Delay’ that Contributes Higher Negativity</strong></h4><figure class="w-richtext-align-center w-richtext-figure-type-image"><div><img src="https://cdn.prod.website-files.com/66dffa95f947b62fb545cc4d/66e826614f0a1d5001f91cf5_00%2520Insight%2520(0-00-40-18).jpeg" alt="Sub-themes of ‘Flight Delay’ " loading="lazy"/></div></figure><p>Analyzing subthemes of poor customer experience around airline flight delays reveals a range of critical concerns that can significantly impact the travel experience. The disruption to people's plans is a significant factor, from delayed departures and missed connections to significantly delayed arrivals.</p><p>Additionally, customers often face a lack of customer service and support, which can compound the frustration of the delay. The lack of communication and refunds, food vouchers, and hotels for those affected can also create additional stress.</p><p>The cost of additional flights and hotels can be a significant burden, as well as the loss of time and events planned for the trip. Lack of staff to accommodate flights and chaos in luggage areas can further exacerbate the situation.
