My wife and I flew from Perth to KL the other day on Malindo. We were going to connect to a Malindo flight to Sri Lanka but our plane was too late. Our first flight was re-timed??? for 40 minutes later than when we bought the ticket but as we had 2 hrs in KL we didnt worry, but at the airport the plane was later and later. When the departure got to 2 hrs late mark I asked the ground staff if we would make our connection and they happily replied that the plane to KL was the same plane as the plane to Colombo. When we got to KL the Colombo plane had left 5 minute's before! Both planes were actually on the ground together for 10 minutes according to flightaware. My question is did the ground crew deliberately lie to me or did they not know which plane would go to Colombo?
