On the 9th, Ren Hiramoto (25), who is active in the martial arts “RIZIN”, expressed his anger at the travel agency Expedia on X (former Twitter).
Suddenly, he criticized Expedia by name, saying, “Travel agency Expedia is too garbage.”
“I made a reservation for business and paid for it, but when I arrived at the airport, it was in economy, and I was told that the call would be returned, and I didn’t get a call. It’s too bad. Will I get a refund?”
He continued, “I thought it would be strange to ask you to change your flight in Hawaii, but I was charged the same fee as the airline ticket, so I went directly to the airport and was able to change it for free.”
His anger grew further, and he quoted and retweeted Expedia’s official X post, saying, “Is there still a full refund campaign for me who pays 700,000 worth of business class fare and rides in economy?? I can’t even connect the phone.” Is it one of the tours that you can ride in economy class even though you paid for business class? Disneyland’s Jungle Cruise is more comfortable,” he said sarcastically.
Expedia explained, “I’m very sorry, but it seems that the class was lowered to economy when the flight schedule was changed.” In addition, “As an apology, may I give the following amount of points to your account as points?”
After exposing this exchange, Hiramoto said, “What is my campaign that I paid 700,000 yen for business class, but when I arrived at the airport in Switzerland, I was put in economy?? I wanted to lie down and take the plane. What kind of campaign is this for me?? I paid 700,000 yen, but as an apology, I received 35,749 yen in Expedia points.”
After that, the exchange continued, but Hiramoto said, “It was too late to respond, so I’ve already boarded the plane, so I can only guarantee a full refund of the ticket. It was a good trip, but I paid for business at the end. During the flight in a hard chair for 14 hours If you don’t get a refund, I won’t be satisfied for the rest of my life, so I thought I’d keep mumbling about it.
It seems that it has become an out-of-field battle.
