Would not let me go up to the counter to inform them that I had transferring bags and that I had a seat change so need to confirm if they did input about the seat change. There were other passengers who wanted to inquire from them probably other information and all they responded was to wait for the announcements. Take into consideration that there was no lifts or elevators and everyone had to walk down and there were not enough seats to go by too and many were standing certainly for more than an hour.( I was and certainly there were no seats available when I went down to the gate.) If I had known there was such a delay I would not have gone down the stairs to the Gate but sat near the Gate upstairs.
That said the crew on board was nice.
