This review is specific to Ms. Tregon/Dough (spelling?) working at the Allegiant Airlines ticket counter because of her unsolicited rude, caustic attitude. Her photo is available upon request by CVG or Allegiant management.
I enjoy flying Allegiant because of the direct flights and cost savings. Therefore, I can accept additional baggage fees and the 40lb weight restriction vs. the standard 50lb limit.
Today, Monday, April 17 at 12:45pm, my wife arrived 2 hours and 15 minutes prior to her 3pm flight from CVG to FLL, confirmation code CWKWG6. I had prepaid for her 1 checked bag, and an extra $16 for an exit row seat. We travel often and learned to study and review baggage policies each time we fly. We had checked in online several hours before the flight with boarding pass ready on the smart phone. I took steps to ensure the bags were packed correctly and well under 40lbs. Therefore, we had done all the necessary due dilligence to streamline the checkin process for ourselves and other passengers.
Unfortunately Ms. Tregon/Dough (spelling?) was working today and with a severe attitude. First she tried to accuse my wife of having an overweight bag only to discover it only weighed 33lbs. Secondly she attempted to charge her $5 boarding pass even after seeing the boarding pass was ready and loaded on her iPhone. Lastly, she tried to argue that the overhead bag was too big, despite that obviously it was regulation size (about 21-22") and would easily fit into the famous "luggage size determination" device mounted at the ticketing counter. It did, but after placing it into the size bin, Ms. Tregon insisted to use her foot to push the carry on bag further into the bin. As a result of her kickboxing skills two items were broken.
Clearly, customer service is absolutely not a good fit for this young woman.
