My flight on Silver airways was delayed by over 12 hours to the point where we had to drive to our destination. The personal that works for this company offered no help and refused to answer any questions about the flight.Initial Complaint

We purchased six flight tickets and had an additional baby lap ticket on Feb 12, 2025. Four adults, two children, and one baby lap. Our tickets were for March 19, 2025 at 8:05am from **************, we would have a layover in ***** Fl where we would land at 9:15am. We were then leave ***** at 10:55am and land in ******** 12:00pm. On March 17, 2025, I received a text and email from silver air ways stating that my flight from *************** (not *****) to ******** had been canceled. I called and spoke with a lady named **** on the phone, she said the best she could do was cancel my flight and refund me or put me on another flight where we fly out from *********** then fly to *************** then fly back to ***** then fly to ********. I would love to rebook with another company; however, it being two days prior to our trip, flights are approximately $600-$1000 per ticket. My family vacation has turned in to a nightmare trying to get together new tickets or my flight rearranged for THREE different flights to get to key west from *********** with children. This has been nothing short of chaos. When speaking with Silver Airlines the staff was discourteous. From my perspective, she was speaking to me as though it was my fault that the airline changed our flights, not once, but TWICE, and let me know about the change less than 48 hours from our flight with my family. I have since called back and still not receiving help. One of my concerns is how is this business able to back out of a contract with no notice or reason other than the flight has been canceled. This has cost my family more money because of their lack of notification in a timely manner or without providing reasonable solutions to the problems that they have caused. The second time we spoke to the airline we were told that it was not their responsibility to refund us our money. It was not their responsibility to help us find another flight. This seems like a scam but with an actual business.Initial Complaint

For a Pensacola to Orlando flight, *************** uses Silver Airways. I am a MileagePlus credit card holder and should not be charged for checked bags for myself and one companion. At the Silver Airways check-in counter at *********, I was not allowed to get free checked bags. The only way to go to ******* with our bags on that day was to pay an $80 fee. I was advised by the counter person to contact Silver Airways requesting reimbursement and to include a copy of the $80 receipt. For the return flight, ******* to *********, a Silver Airways counter person said the bags for MileagePlus members should be checked for free and showed me a sheet stating no fee for MileagePlus. Later when we checked in at the ****************************** counter there was no charge for our bags. I sent a reimbursement request with copy of the receipt by email to Silver Airways. The response was that they do no reimburse bag fees.Initial Complaint

My family of 4 were scheduled for a return flight from the island of ******** to ***************** on January 6, 2024 (Flight Confirmation code IFXHBU). After arriving at the airport in ******** on the 6th we were told the airplane that was available was too small to accommodate all the ticketed passengers and we would be flown out the next day. Housing, food, and other expenses were to be repaid by the airline after they were submitted. These receipts were submitted to the airline with initial contact email from January 16, 2024. We were told in April at least some of our expenses would be reimbursed within ***** weeks from a Silver Airways email dated April 11, 2024. We have not received any reimbursement despite numerous emails requesting updates.Initial Complaint
