It has become abundantly clear that the front-line agents really are not empowered to do much and you normally have to ask for a special desk to handle things. But I know sometimes these are called different names and I was trying to figure out a list of what exactly to ask for. So far, off the top of my head, you can ask for (and no guarantees names are accurate or that they will transfer you):
-A supervisor (this seems to be the first step in escalation)
-Ticketing: (appears to be the desk that needs to process reissues due to schedule changes, RUC/GUC, Mileage Upgrade Awards)
-Joint Ventures Desk: (For handling tickets involving AF/KLM/AM/KE)
-Customer Care: (for complaints)
-SkyMiles Support: (related to issues with the app, tech? Not sure about this one).
Any others?
You can add Refunds to your list. 95% of the time these days they refuse to transfer me but prefer to act as an intermediary between me and the other department. During covid when wait times were very lengthy they would prefer to transfer me so they could take the next call.
