1. I wouldn't call it wrong, you could always book the ticket in person is probably the argument they would give if they were admitting their site was down.
Is it bad customer service? Yes. The best way to keep costumers coming back is to follow the LAST model. Listen, Apologize, Satisfy, Thank. It doesn't sound as if they did this. When you expressed that there website wasn't working they should have made an effort to help you book the ticket there, and if it failed offer to wave the 15 dollars phone fee.
2. & 3. I Wouldn't likely use this airline. To me service is very important especially in regards to air lines as flying is stressful already. The fact is if they can't even satisfy me as a costumer before I've bought the ticket, why by the ticket? Even if it was the lowest price i could find I would be willing to pay a bit extra for an airline that knew what they were doing. So I'd tell the airline phone operator that.. I'm not going to purchase my ticket from you because your costumer service is sub-par, thank you and have a nice day.

Is it wrong for an airline to have a broken or down site with error messages, and then charge people $15 to book a flight over the phone?
I went to an airline website to book a flight, and the website wasn't working. It continuously provided me with error messages when I tried to book the flight. Then they charge $15 to book the flight over the phone. A few questions. **Note** this airline claims they do not have any problems with their website on the phone, but I continuously get an error message when I try to book the flight. I'm not crying over the $15 they charging me, either.
1. Do you think this is a wrong practice?
2. What would you do and why?
3. Would you fly this airline, why or why not?
