Seats bought not given and requested to top up money for equivalent seats
I have booked the seats with extra leg space (paid extra) for my return flight to Singapore from Taiwan. Wanted to do online check the day before departure but noticed that the seats are not in order. Tried contacting customer service in Taiwan and email to sales person but remain uncontactable. Went to do physical check in on the day and was accused of changing our seats (which we did not) and asked us to top up TWD$3,084 for the remaining seats with extra room space. The whole process took about one hour. Went to counter to pay and the lady in service told us that this is a system change as they change their airplane so seating arrangement change and the seats that we paid for has been taken up by someone else. They did not offer us seats of equivalent (extra leg space with same price) but told us the seats costs more (TWD$5,394) (front role). The whole process took another 20 minutes. By the time we are done payment, we have to rush to board the plane. So to all the consumers, be careful when you purchase tickets from China Airline. They might change the airplane and screwed up your seatings which u paid extra in the first place. I purchased those seats with extra costs because I am travelling with two elderlies and a year old kid.
