STOMPer Laughing's flights in and out of Kuching have been rescheduled by Tiger Airways to fall on the same day, less than an hour apart. The STOMPer had originally booked to fly into Kuching on Nov 21 and depart on Nov 22.

To make matters worse, the budget airline will charge the STOMPer an additional $150 to change the departing flight.

In the STOMPer's email dated Oct 13:

"I have booked an air ticket to Kuching on 21 Nov and return on 22 Nov.

"My air ticket has been changed to depart on 22 Nov and back on 22 Nov.

"I think it is the ultimate insult to human intelligence. I called Tiger airways and explain that I wish to change to either an earlier departure date or a later arrival date but was told the following:- 1) No refund as it is not tiger's policy 2) Changing of ticket's date will cost an extra of $150 as the ticket price is different now and all seats are 90% filled.

"I explained it is not my intention to change but the staff told me it is the company's policy 3) I explain to them that I will miss my flight back as there is not enough time to check out and check in again.

"This was meant to be a sarcastic remark and to my astonishment, they told me that I have to stick to this as this is one of the terms and conditions that was agreed. It seems that common sense is not that common after all.

"This is indeed the joke of the year for Tiger Airways.
