  I had four flights from *** to ***** on 6/16. Sun country delayed the flight three times, the latest delay was for five hours. They claimed it was due to air traffic control, and they refused to help us. Eventually we received a small refund, but the law requires a 400% refund. If it is an air traffic control delay, why are other airlines flying into ***** at the same time? This is a lie to not have to pay what law requires you to. You have treated my family horrifically and we want the refund we are entitled to.

  Sun Country, **** d/b/a Sun Country Airlines, appreciates the opportunity to address the issues expressed by our customer in the complaint filed with the **********************. Thank our passenger for their feedback regarding their recent Sun Country reservation for travel between ***********/************, ** (MSP) and *******, ** (ORD) on 7/16/2025. Service is something we take seriously, and it is disappointing anytime our passengers experience a disruption to their travel plans.
  
  As much as we are sorry for the circumstances and inconvenience surrounding their trip, Sun Country Airlines does not provide any type of compensation for flight irregularities that are out of the airlines control, including delays and cancellations related to weather, air traffic control, and other situations as was the case in this delay. For this reason, we are unable to offer compensation for this flight disruption. As the passenger opted not to travel on this delayed flight, they are being refunded for the cost of their ticket in full. The 400% compensation in which our customer is referencing is denied boarding compensation which was not the case in this situation as it was a delay that effected the entire flight.

  Sincerely

  Sun Country Airlines

  On July 10 the airline didn't provide updates every 30 minutes for the delay. The flight was supposed to leave at 6:55 but didn't leave until 11:15. No weather issues, and I missed my family reunion. They keep adding delay times perpetually. First it was delayed until 8:15, then 9:15, then 10:15, then 11:15. I would have gotten another flight if they originally posted the correct times for the delay. According to the pilot it was a mechanical issue on another plane that causes the delay. The airline also never provided a gate, just a terminal. We had to walk all around dfw to find where the flight was. There is no signage anywhere and it was like trying to find an invisible airline. I can provide proof with screenshots of anything needed.

  Sun Country, **** d/b/a Sun Country Airlines, appreciates the opportunity to address the issues expressed by our customer in the complaint filed with the **********************. We thank our customer for their feedback regarding their recent travel on Sun Country between Dallas-Ft. *****, ** (DFW) and ***********/************, ** (MSP) on 7/10/2025. Service is something we take seriously, and it is disappointing anytime our passengers experience a disruption to their travel plans.
   
  Although the nature of our industry precludes all carriers from guaranteeing timetables, we understand our passengers' time is valuable and we are truly sorry for the inconvenience this flight delay caused. To demonstrate our commitment to service excellence, and as a gesture of apology, Sun Country issued each traveler on this flight a $50.00 travel voucher toward a future Sun Country Airlines flight. Delay updates are only required if the flight has already pushed from the gate and is on the tarmac. Passengers who are in the gate area are provided updates as they become available as delays are fluid and times are never set in stone. We are unable to provide additional compensation beyond this future travel voucher.

  In addition, DFW is a year round station for Sun Country with permanent signage and minimal gate changes (gate information is always listed on the flight information boards inside the airport). Check-in counters and gates all have Sun Country logos, in addition, Sun Country is listed on the signage in the departure drop off lanes as well.

  Sun Country Airlines

  Each flight was delayed 3+ hours (SY262 ORD to MSP (6/26/2025) and SY261 MSP to ORD (6/29/2025)) and no meal voucher or compensation was provided in real time or upon formal request via online form. Additionally, each delay was started at about 2 hours and 59 minutes, such that they would not offer a refund (for example, if refund had been offered to no longer take the flights, I would have rented a car to drive). Additionally, the communication was lacking during these lengthy delays, as a gate agent was rarely present. Additionally, upon reviewing the history of these flights, they are averaging about 2 hours late - why is Sun Country allowed to schedule a flight that averages 2 hours late. Thank you.

  Sun Country, **** d/b/a Sun Country Airlines, appreciates the opportunity to address the issues expressed by our customer in the complaint filed with the **********************. We have responded directly to our customer and advised that we apologize for the inconvenience they experienced due to the delay of flight SY261. Although the nature of our industry precludes all carriers from guaranteeing timetables, we understand their time is valuable. While we regret the disruption, we are not issuing compensation for this delay. Per DOT regulations if a delay exceeds 3 hours a passenger may request a refund of their ticket if they choose not to travel so long as the plane is still at the gate and boarding doors are still open. The passenger was advised of this option in the delay email sent once the delay reached 3 hours. 
  
  The flight disruption they experienced is not what they should expect from Sun Country Airlines, and we hope to have the opportunity to serve them again in the future.

  Sincerely

  6/24 Flight was delayed 8 hours with no additional support or options provided. When calling customer care everyone was extremely rude and unwilling to help. Due to this 8 hour delay this is costing over 400 in extra fees with no solution. This is solely an airline problem which they have owned up to but refuse to do anything with the added fees and they state would be. We have no other options for flights and we need to take the flight.

  We were departing from the ************** to the ************************* (6/21/25). Unfortunately our flight got delayed and postponed to the following morning which we understood (6/22/25). In the process we were sent to several different gates to receive our new boarding passes which the *** agent stated was important to be able to board the following day. The agent said that the sun country airline attendants would be waiting for us at said gate in which they never showed up. Another airport employee sent us to a different gate stating that same thing which also lead to nothing. We headed back to the *** check point and thats when the *** agent said the airline personal/ attendants had told them to let people leave because they themselves were also leaving for the day. We made our way to the front check in desk and found two Sun country airline employees with out suitcases except For one. We secured two of our suitcases and then asked for the third in which they said they had taken it somewhere else. The airline personal stated they would have to wait until the next flight came in which was coming from ********* to try and look for our missing luggage. This airline caused us stress in the process of our delayed flight and provided us with poor communications. Aside from this we realized our luggage had been tampered with AND even damaged. Whether this was cause by the airline or *** we dont see know.

  On June 05, 2025, I traveled with Sun Country Airlines on flight SY396 and paid $50 to check in my brand-new suitcase. When I retrieved my luggage at the destination, it was torn and scuffedclearly damaged. This was the suitcases first use, and it was in perfect condition prior to the flight.I reported the damage immediately to Sun Country staff at the airport. They filled out an incident report on the spot, which confirms the issue. However, when I followed up, the airline later claimed the damage was normal wear and tear and refused to compensate me in any way.Calling this kind of damage normal wear and tear is completely unacceptable, especially for a new bag that was handled for a single flight. A torn suitcase is not normal, and Sun Countrys refusal to take responsibility despite a filed report shows a lack of accountability.I paid for a service that included care and handling of my property, and instead my new luggage was returned visibly damaged with no resolution offered.

   I am rejecting this response because: Thank you for your response, but I completely reject the explanation offered.
  I paid $50 to check in a brand-new suitcase( cost of $80), and that fee wasnt optional it was a charge imposed by the airline. If baggage handling is a paid service, then damage caused during that handling should be the airline's responsibility. The suitcase now has a visible tear near the zipper and scuffing in other areas that your employee did not fully document at the time. Calling this normal wear and tear is unacceptable and dismissive, especially considering this was the bags first use.
  I'm not made of money to buy a new suitcase every time I fly. The tear and scuffs were clearly caused during baggage handling and would not have happened had the bag remained in my possession. Whether or not your Contract of Carriage tries to limit liability, it does not excuse damage that goes beyond ordinary wear.
  I am again requesting reimbursement for the damage or at minimum, a refund of the $50 baggage fee. If Sun Country insists on charging passengers for baggage, then you should also be responsible for when that paid-for service results in damage.

  On Sunday, May 18, 2025, I arrived in ******* on Sun Country Flight SY681 from *********** and discovered that one of the wheels on my brand-new luggage had been damaged. As instructed on the airline's website, I reported the issue to airport staff immediately. However, I was told by staff that they could not assist and that I needed to call customer service.On May 20, 2025, I contacted Sun Country customer service and submitted a baggage damage claim (File ID: **************, along with photographs of the damage. On May 24, 2025, I received an email denying my claim, despite having followed all required procedures. I was denied assistance at the airport and then had my claim rejected without reasonable justification.This luggage was brand new and clearly damaged while in Sun Country's custody. I am seeking compensation or reimbursement for the damaged luggage. The denial of my claim appears to be due to a failure on the part of airline staff to follow their own policy, not due to any fault of mine.Desired Resolution:I respectfully request reimbursement for the cost of my damaged luggage or equivalent compensation. If necessary, I am prepared to escalate the matter further.

  Sun Country requires passengers to report any damage to checked items before they leave the airport or by phone within 4 hours of the flightsarrival so we can assess the damage and create a claim.

  March 15 through 17 involved a flight from SXM to MSP that was delayed several times, for a number of reasons and then cancelled causing considerable expense and disruption to lives of the souls scheduled on the flight. We were told half a dozen stories regarding the reason(s) flights were delayed, cancelled, diverted to ************* and ultimately returning home more than 36 hours after they were supposed to. Stories included a small private plane parked behind the parked Sun Country craft that no one would move (people took pictures,) weather, and no customs agents in MSP terminal 2 to check us in. WE WERE TOLD BY THE CAPTAIN, GATE AGENT ********** AND LEAD FLIGHT ATTENDANT TO KEEP ALL RECEIPTS FOR FULL REIMBURSEMENT. We were a party of 9 people and so far the 7 others have full reimbursement for all but alcohol. The expenses incurred due to delays and cancellation were substantial for us and we got receipts for everything. All receipts were submitted in a timely and orderly fashion. They were actually submitted online 3 times and via **** certified mail twice. We are in touch with half a dozen other passengers that we knew on the same flight, all of them have had FULL reimbursement less alcohol. The receipts covering the cancelled and then delayed flight of 3/15 flight ******* from SXM to MSP for us caused an overnight stay with cab fare and then 932 rescheduled to depart at 9AM on 3/16 was delayed causing a late checkout plus meals, plus additional parking costs, plus house sitter fees for two additional nights for 3 dogs and home care. We were told YET AGAIN upon departure 3/16 that all would be reimbursed and to keep all receipts. FINALLY after an email to Mr. ******** got two emails from ***** and *** who did not even have the professionalism to include their last names. We were informed we would be reimbursed LESS THAN HALF of our out-of-pocket and the reason was we were given vouchers for future travel. WE WANT FULL REIMBURSEMENT! NOT VOUCHERS!

We have responded directly to our customer and advised regrettably Sun ******************** was forced to delay the passenger's flight between *********** (SXM) and ***********/************, ** (MSP) on 3/16/2025. Service is something we take seriously, and it is disappointing anytime our passengers experience a disruption to their travel plans.
  
  Although the nature of our industry precludes all carriers from guaranteeing timetables, we understand our passengers' time is valuable, and we are sorry for the inconvenience this flight delay caused. To demonstrate our commitment to service excellence, Sun Country issued each traveler on this flight two flight vouchers: a $100.00 and a $200.00 travel voucher toward a future Sun Country Airlines flight. In addition, each passenger was compensated for one night accommodations and meals up to $30 per person based on itemized receipts submitted for reimbursement. Sun Country does not reimburse for other expenses such as rental cars, gas, parking, pet or child care, or other personal expenses. We did review our passengers itemized receipts (all passengers were advised itemized meal and accommodation receipts were required) for the expenses they incurred, and $300.74 ($258.66 ******* $17.08 food, and $25.00 transportation) was approved for reimbursement. The passenger did also submit 2 un-itemized receipts, as well as pet care and parking that are not covered. Reimbursement was issued in the form of a check to the address the passenger provided.
  
  The flight disruption they experienced is not what they should expect from Sun Country, and we look forward to having the opportunity to welcoming them onboard again in the future.

   I am rejecting this response because:
  
  $300 in flight vouchers does NOT pay our credit card bills for the inexcusable delays and lies told to us by the captain, crew and gate agents with regard to why we were delayed and cancelled and delayed and delayed and rerouted and arrived nearly 2 days late, We will NEVER fly this airline again so vouchers that are meant to equivocate payment for bills due that were incurred because of the issues with Sun Country are worthless and (again) do not pay our credit card statement.  Our entire traveling party of 7 others was reimbursed fully for the same receipts we submitted for meals; we were not.  We never received an email outlining the type of receipts to submit as well as having all submissions (3) online ignored and no response given until I emailed the CEO regarding our reimbursement.  Only after certified **** mail to the leadership team and board members did we receive an email telling us what to submit and what was not allowed.  However, NO one from that group had the professionalism to respond and instead the same person who had been emailing rejections responded.  Additionally, a check was issued and sent to me made out to someone of a different name (though similar) who lives 15 miles away from us locally. I cannot cash a check made out to the incorrect name corresponding to a local resident.

  We were reimbursed less than half of the expenses.  While they state they do not reimburse for some of the things we submitted (house sitter for 2 additional nights and extra/overage on long term parking) we are still owed for expenses/meals totaling $151.24.  Sun Country's inconsistency in policy application (our other group members receiving full reimbursement) and missteps along with COMPLETE lack of care with regard to an entire plane load of people missing flights and arriving home nearly 2 days later is reprehensible.  The response is rejected until we are properly reimbursed.

  Sun Country, **** d/b/a Sun Country Airlines, appreciates the opportunity to further address our customers concerns. As the passenger has been advised by her multiple methods of contact to Sun Coutnry, including a response from our ******************** Team, all passengers were advised that itemized meal receipts were required. Our passenger was reimburse for meals that itemized receipts were provided. We do not compensate for child or animal care. Our passengers receipts have been submitted and reviewed multiple times. They have been compensated for all items that we previously advised would be covered. In fairness to all passengers on this flight, we cannot offer her refunds where no itemized receipts were submitted. Their refund amount will not be changing. This matter has been reviewed by management and no further action will be taken in this matter. Our passenger has been advised of this multiple times.

  April 13 8:12 pm- arrived an hour prior to flight departure and no one would help me. Waited around for anyone to assist me and the manager told me I can not get on the flight and gave no reason. Went through security who say this happens frequently with this airline and these employees. Blocked again at the gate by the same manager who wouldnt look at me or acknowledge I am a person due to my skin color and appearance. I had to stay another night in *********** unable to go home and receive the chemotherapy treatment I needed that day. Completely unacceptable behavior by staff and manager.

  Sun Country, **** d/b/a Sun Country Airlines, appreciates the opportunity to address the issues expressed by our customer in the complaint filed with the **********************. We have responded directly to our customer and advised that Sun ******************** takes great pride in our equal treatment of all passengers. A report from our station manager was obtained, and reviewed this matter with the agents involved and appropriate actions will be taken. Airport video footage was reviewed. Footage confirmed there was not an agent at the ticket counter at 8:15pm when the customer arrived, up to check-in cut-off. The video shows and the agent stated our customer upset and arguing with the agent. Once at the gate, our customer was advised it was too late to accept the bag, which caused another verbal disruption causing the removal of the passenger from the flight. The manager on duty came to the gate with safety concerns because of the loud disruption and advised airport police would be called it it continued.
  
  We are sorry if our customer felt they were being discriminated against, that certainly was not the intent. We acknowledge by not having an agent available at the ticket counter, they were unable to board their flight, and for that, we truly apologize. We have submitted a refund of our customers unused flight, add-ons, and the $198.00 change fees paid to move to flight #*** for a total refund of $713.98. The funds will be returned to the original forms of payment within seven (7) business days. Our customer was also advised to submit receipts for hotel and additional expenses they may have incurred.

  We appreciate the opportunity to review this matter.

  Sincerely,

  Sun Country Airlines
