An ardent Sonam Kapoor fan asked British Airways to give free tickets to the actor and him as a compensation. The hilarious comment comes after the airlines lost Sonam's luggage for the second time in a month. British Airways replied to it by stating that they will not be able to offer him such compensation.
Give my sonam 2 month free ticket and me as well then she will rethink of her decision Cody

We understand your reasons for asking, however, we wouldn't be able to offer a free ticket for you due to her bag being delayed. Raj

Sonam Kapoor bashes British Airways
Sonam Kapoor took to Twitter and criticised British Airways for losing her luggage twice in a month. Expressing her frustration and disappointment, Sonam wrote that she has learned her lesson and will never fly again with the airline. The airline immediately responded to her tweet apologising and asked her if she has been provided with a tracking reference at the airport.
This is the third time ive traveled @British_Airways this month and the second time they’ve lost my bags. I think I’ve learnt my lesson. I’m never flying @British_Airways again.

We're sorry to hear about the delay to your luggage, Sonam. Have you been provided with a tracking reference when informed at the airport? Cody

Offered my vegetarian mother (even though we pre ordered the meal), a dish with non vegetarian. When we asked the steward, just shook her shoulders and said - I don’t know. Mom was left with no food and upset through the flight, for having been tasted chicken unknowingly ☹️☹️

@sonamakapoor mistakes happen, and the airline is trying to fix it, move on! It's like people saying they would not watch any of your movies after couple of disasters. Don't be such egoistic! I have flown @British_Airways and their service is far better than most

British Airways accused of racism
This is not the first time the above-mentioned airline has come under the spotlight. In 2018, Rishi Kapoor too bashed the same airline and accused them of being racist.
Racist. Dont fly British Airways.We cannot be kicked around. Sad to hear about the Berlin child incident. I stopped flying BA after the cabin crew were rude and had attitude not once but twice even after being a first class passenger. Fly Jetair or Emirates. There is dignity.
