After 3 days of travel we made it to Germany. I still can't believe @KLM mistreated me and other 9 colombians the way they did. They left us for 24 hours at a closed airport in Panama without food or water after not allowing us to take a flight to Amsterdam to enter Germany.
One migration officer took the decision to not let us enter the Schengen area through Amsterdam -pretty much bc she didn't wanted it- behaved extremely disrespectful with us and was borderline -actually- xenophobic to us, she also wouldn't let us know her name.
When asked to identify the turns her id card and tells us her name is personal information and that she cannot disclose that -bullshit, she's and officer she has to identify- then @KLM just decides to leave us for 24 hours in Panama in an airport with closed restaurants.
We had to sleep on the floor during a pandemic, we were forced to stay in a airport -an insanely risky place during COVID- for 24 hours. Then we also had to buy new tickets to fly from Panama to Amsterdam to Croacia and then to Germany. We don't know if we will get a refund.
In my case my partner and me spent over 3.000€ because of this. But the worst is how KML abandoned 9 people in a closed airport during covid forcing me -a disabled person- to sleep on the floor, starve, ans travel for 3 days putting my health at great risk. #DisabilityRights
Because of what they did I had a severe flare up and got way more sick than usual on the flights, I had to be transferred in wheel chairs and had to be pretty much carried everywhere by my partner since I couldn't move from pain, dizziness/faintness #DisabilityRights #Disability
I also lost movement in my right hand, my sciatica got really bad, my anxiety also went insane. Its been two days upon my arrival and I haven't left bed and still depend on opiates bc of the pain that @KLM caused me with their decision to abandon me in Panama for 24 hours.
RTS are highly appreciated! Please help me share!! I'm really really upset at this airline @KLM and the way their workers in Panama ignored a my needs as a #disabled person. My health was placed AT GREAT RISK because of you, I'm still suffering because of you!!
Btw @KLM in Panama told me I was going through this because I wanted to because It was my fault to not "inform about the requirements for travel" when I arrived to Germany I had no issues at the entry and was told my documents "were really good prepared".
So @KLM I'm never flying again with you! Its insane how your workers can ignore the needs of a #disabled people and leave them without water and starving for more than 20 hours, sleeping on the floor of an airport during a pandemic #ShameOnYou
