WASHINGTON, DC — Ironic is the perfect word to describe tweets from the head of communications for Keolis.
On Wednesday, Head of Communications for Keolis Leslie Aun repeatedly complained about American Airlines delays on Twitter. According to her tweets, she was scheduled to fly from Ronald Reagan to Boston on American Airlines, but it was delayed and she was not happy about it.
@americanair infuriating when you say we're on time yet 830 am Dca-Bos is clearly NOT leaving from Gate 29 as broken plane sitting there.
— Leslie Aun (@laun) February 17, 2016
The tweets had a snarky tone, and she even asked American Airlines to "get your act together please."
We'll be getting snacks on every DCA-BOS flight. Who cares about OTP when I have pretzels. yippee! @americanair https://t.co/SehFow4lFw

@AmericanAir really? Well I am not experiencing this lately. Shuttle used to be a flight to count on. Get your act together please.

Aun also told American Airlines that it was "not respectful of my time" and that the delay caused her to miss her meeting.

An Amtrak signal problem caused major problems on the MBTA Commuter Rail Thursday morning, which Keolis runs. Trains were unable to leave or arrive at South Station and photos showed large crowds at South Station. The alternative routes provided was causing a lot of confusion for riders at other stations as well.
Some MBTA riders noticed Aun's tweets to American Airlines and decided to tweet to her pointing out the irony. Aun took it in stride.
Aunn was tweeting with MBTA customers all Thursday morning and repeatedly apologized, saying that Keolis was "frustrated by the Amtrak outage too."
