According to MPowering you should offer to kiss their feet for the privilege of even considering an interview with a lowlife such as yourself. Their time is clearly way more important than yours so suck it up and don't be a whiny baby.
It seems they put a kindergartner in a position of authority. He is sending me his flight itinerary. How ridiculous? How about the address where he is going to see the fireworks? Maybe we can meet at the concession stand before the show. What a moron.
I wouldn't be surprised if they identified someone else or decided not to pursue this position. Sounds like a flake.
So 15 minutes before the rescheduled interview, the hiring manager calls and cancels. He said he needs to wrap things up. He said he was going to email me his flight itinerary and hopefully we can talk before he boards. He has not sent that to me either.
This is sounding like a routine. I am not sure if it is incompetence, an Excalibur test, being understaffed or whatever. It's starting to seem like a continuous problem though. I would give them another chance and look elsewhere.
There are some real jerks in this thread. If you think I'm talking about you...then I am.
It's obviously a bad sign. They don't have their act together. The position isn't urgent to them. Also, they could be really busy. When I transferred positions within the same company, it took SIX weeks to let me know I got the job. SIX WEEKS. There was some reasoning behind it but it was really they were busy and people drag their ass when its not them.

That is ridiculous. Maybe ask him to let you know when he is taking a dump in the men's room at the airport, he will have to sit still long enough for that to chat.

I think the OP is at the point, and understandably so that they don't care that much about the position and want someone higher up to know what is going on(because I guarantee most of the time they don't know).
And do you honestly think after getting blown off 3 times now for a phone interview is going to even land an in person interview at this rate? Very doubtful.
Happens a lot honestly, and in my experience, almost always a red flag.
Proceed with caution.
