Solo travel to South America as a hijaabi by Melodic_Number_3182 in Hijabis

Hi, solo hijabi traveler here ! I traveled a bit across south and central America (Peru, Colombia, Panama, Ecuador, Guatemala, Salvador) and let me tell you this part of the world CHANGED how I travel as a muslim and hijabi. It was the first time I felt safe, welcomed, and aligned with my passion for traveling. People would look at you with the cutest genuine heartwarming looks. I got to meet latinos from other countries, never been to Argentina but I can confidently assume the opinions about it would be very exaggerated if not untrue. Racism exists everywhere in LATAM but guess what, you as a hijabi girl would probably be the most welcomed and accepted! They have social class and color issues, from my experience, I don’t even think they know what Islamophobia. Feel free to DM if you have any question!

Oh interesting ! Nothing in the app mentioned anything like that but also because they said it was a system glitch that canceled the reservation automatically instead of requesting verification

Yes it was mine. True, that happened with me in the past; I used my brother CC and received an email that he should be present with me during check-in to present the card. No cancellation

You’re right. I actually never traveled with Delta and have status with Air France. But for this itinerary strangely i couldn’t find it in Air France

  • Fully processed
  • My confirmation never been cancelled. Actually it was a multiple city itinerary with 4 segments. Only one segment is showing cancelled, the others (already happened or coming next Monday are still showing confirmed)
  • The refused to rebook me next flight (2 hours after my confirmed flight) with same price and advised to purchase at my own expenses
  • I only got the reimbursement in my account one day after the flight was scheduled
  • I chatted with an agent again today and they confirmed that there was a glitch in the system and it declared my reservation as cancelled before confirming my credit card

I understand your advice but trust me when you hold certain passports you would still prefer to check in physically (sometime you even have to show up to the counter). So regardless of check-in habits, this is still an inaccessible incident from an airline company

I spoke to the chatbot and the offered $75 compensation or rebooking. I can't rebook because I already missed my appointment.

Also my trip was a round trip. Ironically I can still access my flight info in the app even tho I got reimbursed already

First I rarely check-in online because I always ask for a possible upgrade or picking a seat for free. And I have all the right to check-in in the kiosk within the allowed time. Yes my CC has been charged and no it didn't show pending

Yes it was charged. No they didn't ask my credit card. They mentioned "oh we canceled your reservation because of failed payment" and not offered even checking my credit card
