I usually travel with Copa or American airlines; 8-9 hours with one stop. On January I decided to take my old and nervous dog to Colombia to check her cataracts and maybe get a eye surgery there because It's a lot of cheaper than here in the USA. I took the decision because I realized then that Avianca established a new direct route Chicago-Bogota (around 6 hours flight) that will be a lot of less stress for my dog. This was the only way possible to take my dog so I booked a flight to travel on May 15th, the round trip cost me $458.25 (plus $250 that I have to pay later for my dog). On March 17 Avianca sent me an email that said ""due to unforeseen circumstances your flight had changed an in order to receive personalized attention and know the options that we have in this situation, please contact us through our call center"" then in the bottom of the email my new route was a 20 hours flight, stopping in another country (Guatemala) and coming back almost 24 hours stopping in Guatemala as well. This was no viable for me because I was traveling with my a pet and my dog won't be able to take all this stress and then who knows what kind of paperwork and fees I have to do for my dog to be able to get in in Guatemala. I called Avianca customer service and asked them why the flight was cancel?..no answer by the rep, what are my options no answer by their rep ether? After the interaction a couple of times with different customer agents I realized that Avianca was pushing then to sustain the cancelation of the route and not to offer any options. I said this because customer agents didn't offer me shorter flights with stop in the USA (FYI Avianca has several direct routes thru to USA that goes to Bogota: Miami, Orlando, NYC,Houston and LA). Also because the rep told me that they can not refund the money thru their system that I have to go to Avianca website but agents didn't want to explain how to do the refund. It that was until I got upset that the agent explained to me how to do it. Also the rep said that a full refund will be issue if ill do it myself. Well, later I found out the Avianca only refunded me $335.79. I called Avianca again to find out why they are taking off $122.46 off, because I didn't cancel or change my flight, it was Avianca that canceled the direct route, and the only option that you offered me It wasn't feasible because I was traveling with a twelve years old dog. I have to be fair here the agent Claudia O. went above and beyond to help me. She also couldn't understand that ether the amount of the refund so she call several Avianca departments to see why I wasn't getting back the total amount of money that I paid for this flight. I spent 50 minutes with her and at the end she said that this case will be scalate because the others departments couldn't understand ether why I wasn't getting back $458.25. A few days later I decided to tweet Avianca and after tweeting with several people Avianca said that the only responsibility of the airline was to take me to Colombia and I had to be penalized $122.46 for canceling my flight. The funny part is that Avianca didn't just cancel the flight, I found later that Avianca canceled several direct routes to save money, I guess at the expenses of its customer!

It was on flight 1431 from LAX to HNL. I was seated in 37D. My wife was seated in 32D. Here is what happened on that flight: While in flight, one of the female flight attendants was passing out the Hawaii State Agriculture/HVCB survey form to the passengers. I know for a fact that the form is one per family. When the attendant came by my row, I told her my wife seated in another row will complete the form for us. Well instead of taking my word for it, she tried to force the form into the slot holding the passenger safety information. That was totally uncalled for in my opinion. I took it as she did not trust me for my word and insinuating I was not truthful in telling her my wife normally fills out the form. Furthermore, she had the audacity to return a few minutes later and questioned me as to what seat my wife was seated at. I told her I was not sure what seat but she can check the manifest to find out. This flight attendant was on a mission to spoil my trip and was determined to make me miserable which she succeeded at. I attempted to take her photo so I could view her name tag but she saw me and immediately told me to delete the photo. She even told her male supervisor and he approached me and told me to delete the photo. I told him I already did. Apparently he was not aware that I already deleted the image upon the initial request. This incident was not necessary as it did not involve a safety issue.

You wait 40 minutes for the checker to show up and when she finally does, she directs you to a different machine. You follow her instructions but now there isn't even a way to enter your gift card. Finally, she says that she can ring you up herself. Only now the cost of your groceries has gone up $75. All while you were trying to pay for them!

I'm a frequent flyer and have flown with a plethora of airlines and have never had such a ridiculous experience before. When checking in for my flight at the airport, I was told that although they see my reservation, they don't have a ticket for me. I showed them my confirmation email with the booking code, ticket number, and proof of payment, but still, they insisted there is no ticket for me. I was told that they would kindly let me wait and see if I could purchase a new ticket. I was told to wait 40 minutes. After 40 minutes, I was told to wait another 40 minutes. My flight I had a ticket for had long departed by this time. After waiting over 1.5 hours, I was finally allowed to purchase a new ticket, with the price being much higher than what I originally paid. I paid for the ticket and they had me wait again. After about 30 minutes, they informed me, without any sort of apology, that they actually told me the wrong ticket price and the ticket would be $100 more and I would have to pay the difference if I wanted to get the ticket. I was obviously very upset at this point but ended up paying it because again, they didn't listen to me whatsoever and did not apologize whatsoever for their mistake. I made it to my destination. On the way back, when checking in at the airport, I was informed I would have to pay another $150 since I paid the resident ticket price and not the foreigner one. I informed them that I bought my ticket at the counter and they should have made sure I was getting the right ticket, so at least they waived that fee. Then, I had to pay a $10 airport check-in fee as they said I should have checked in online. Checking in online was not possible though, since I had to buy the ticket at the airport and they gave me no ticket purchase confirmation. They really just try to rip you off.

Lately they have been shamelessly riding on their reputation. A couple weeks ago, we tried to go to Cancun from Salt Lake City via Atlanta with plenty of time to spare for our connecting flight. Only problem is that the departing flight was not a few minutes late but hours late! The Delta desk attendant told us the plane had mechanical issues. Since this massive delay would have caused us to miss our connecting flight in Atlanta, we had to rebook our flight for the next day, pretty much ruining our trip. We tried to get a refund for the first night at the hotel which we had to forfeit, and Delta is now telling us they cannot refund us because the room was pre-paid! Of course, we had to reserve that hotel ahead of time. The arrogance of that airline is just limitless. Finally, we were able to check the historical data on that specific flight (you can get this data from several sites such as Flightradar24), and it turned out that this Delta flight has been either delayed or cancelled 5 times over 10 days from February 1st through February 10th, including our flight. So, this seems to be a systemic issue with delta's plane maintenance and management. In fact, the attendant we talked to encouraged us to rebook the trip as a direct flight telling us that Atlanta was experiencing lots of maintenance problems. Nice to know, and not very comforting ;( I will not make any speculation about the risk level that Delta might be exposing its customers to, but when an airplane keeps being delayed (and in one instance cancelled), this is something everyone should be concerned about.

My two adult daughters who had premium Plus tickets were upgraded on this leg of the journey( Newark to Houston). During meal times, both of my daughters were ignored and passed over as far as meal choices were concerned. While one of my daughters was finally given a tray, my other daughter was told that she had no status and hence was not eligible for any meal. My daughter was too shocked and embarrassed on hearing this. The stewardess( three of them ) told her that the meals were guaranteed only for 1k passengers ( like my husband and myself) and that they had run out of meals. After a length of time, the stewardess brought her a tray stating that they had finally located a tray and that she could have it ( as if out of an act of kindness). Meanwhile my husband ( we were in a different section) got up to use the restroom and passed the kitchen where he spotted the stewardess (who had told my daughters that they had run out of meals) eating the same lunch that was served to us. This is a clear case of discrimination and bullying.

First, as we were boarding they pulled me aside to tell me that I have been moved- away from my family. I told them no. We then sat down and a flight attendant told my wife that a mistake took place ""upstairs"" and that we would have to move so that the flight crew could rest when they're not serving. We said no so they then threw some cargo bags in the two seats next to me to make a point that those seats were not to be used by us or something (picture attached). (2) No drinks or refreshments were given until after an hour of flight. (3) Food options were only pork and they told me that there wasn't pork but that was because of the language barrier. (4) The flight crew did as little as possible and then disappeared to seemingly socialize amongst themselves. (5) The worse is that they actually had the temerity to be indignant with us for the flight duration because we didn't move but perhaps if they had arranged a situation for us to be together and/or told us before we got the kids comfortable in their seats, etc. we may have been more receptive.

I rebooked it for the dates in which my hotel was reserved for, 11/04/2020-11/08/2020. Yesterday I received an email stating that my whole flight had been changed! Now, according to them, they changed my traveling itinerary to leave Newark, NJ Sunday 11/08/2020 to Mexico and that I'm traveling back Monday 11/09/2020. I told them that's unacceptable. I bought these tickets since May! They made those changes, not me. And at first they said they'd provide a refund, but after being on hold for almost an hour, the customer service rep said they'd give me Frontier credit and that's it. I already booked the hotel, and I'm in the wedding! And they overbooked the flights so kicked off random people and now we're suffering.

Hundreds of people running like crazy. Broken bottles of glass everywhere, from the articles purchased in duty free from their first flight. We ran all over to get to a huge plane that United has ready to fly out with everyone trying to get to LAX. The airline only cares about the money they receive...not the service they provide.

We usually start looking to book 3 to 4 months ahead of time and watch airfares since they change regularly. Once we book the flight we then watch the Premium Economy fees since they also change up and down. We do feel the additional cost of Premium Economy is worth it. We just booked late April to Malpensa and upgraded to premium economy both ways.

We had arrived at Gate B22, so had to traverse the airport, to get to our departure gate, E-14, and part of that via the efficient SkyTrain. We were glad that all went well, because we had a marginally tight connection at IAH to begin with, and with our TYS-IAH flight late, we had to really hurry, to make it. Often, we have a Global Services rep meet us at the jetbridge, and whisk us across the tarmac, under such situations. No rep! We have found that Houston’s Global Services staff is not as good, as say SFO, LAX, EWR, LHR, IAD or ORD. Not sure what the issue is. At least a Global Services rep did come onto the plane, to make sure we had made it, and to “thank” us for the millions of miles we both fly on United - nice, but a tad late. We had rushed to make this connection, and Global Services had already been called, so we just ran to the podium, and were on-board. Time for some pre-departure wine! Luckily, they were pouring the Gravelly Ford Chard. Our jackets (now rather sweaty) were hung in the closet near the galley, our two briefcases stored. This 737-800, was from the Continental side of the fleet, and had the older cabin, and smaller overhead bins, but wife’s wheeled briefcase fit nicely. My briefcase fit under the seat in front, but had to go in the middle section, as the IFE (DirectTV) equipment took up quite a bit of that underseat real estate. Our Boarding went smoothly, and we pushed back about. The weather at IAH was a mixed bag - dense haze, some heavy broken clouds, and threats of rain. We climbed quickly above those clouds, and did not see the ground, until about El Paso. The weather cleared more, the closer we got to Phoenix. About 40 mins. into the flight, we had a “Snack.” This meal was a choice of either Moroccan Chicken w/ couscous, and hummus, or a Cheese, Meat, Nut & Fruit Tray. Both were pretty good, as far as airline food goes, though the Cheese Tray was the more visually appealing. We got one each of the Gravelly Ford California Chardonnay ‘17, and the Château Villotte Bordeaux blend ‘16. Both were quite good, and especially with the Cheese Plate. We had begun encountering these two wines, a few months back, and compared to some recent options, find these two better than most. Now, being from the Continental side of the fleet, via the merger some years back, we had DirectTV. As mentioned that equipment does take up a fair amount of the underseat storage. Over many flights on the sCO 737's, we have had mixed results with DirectTV. On this flight, at seat 2A, I could only get one Disney movie, and all of the other channels, including the Map, and the TV channels, did not work?? My wife had better luck in 2B, as she got several different movies, but no TV channels. This plane, while in good shape, was starting to show some wear and tear, but was clean Other than a bit of roughness out of IAH, and then the expected thermals, heading into PHX, the flight was smooth. Coming into PHX, we did a bit of a “fly-by,” heading to the west, before turning to land on Runway 25L. Our cabin crew was very friendly, and efficient, and our landing at PHX was perfect. We were at Gate 6B, in T2, on schedule, and our luggage arrived in a fairly timely fashion onto Carousel 4, which is typical.

They then waited until 1:30 in the morning to cancel it. We then had to get a hotel and try to find a new flight. Guess what, according to jetblue we can't get home until Thrusday night MAYBE because it would be standby. While my family slept for a few hours, I continued to be on a 3 hour hold until 5:30 in the morning for them to only tell us that we could get a flight to New York and then stay the night there and fly to Detroit on Thursday. This morning, I went straight to the airport to see if we could get a better flight while being on hold yet again for another 2 1/2 hours I eventually got us a flight through American Airlines for Wednesday morning that the JetBlue employee said didn't exist 🙄 So now, we wait, while missing school & work (without pay). Guess what jetblue has to say about all of this... because it was due to ""weather"" and not the fact that they couldn't get a pilot or flight attendants they are not going to help ANY of us who got stranded.

I stood at the airport all night until all planes were exhausted (along with other families that had been there way longer than I had). I never got on a plane.

I had to pay for the motel room. I never cancelled my flight. My thought was maybe I'm wrong. The data is lying to me. Yet, I was right. I got on that flight with AA with no problem. I monitored my standby/alternate ticket situation with SW the entire time in air and off. It kept getting pushed back over and over again. To the point that it was landing 3 days from the point I booked. I canceled. I'd love to give my credit to someone needing a flight, but I cannot. I'm the only one it works for. I just THANK GOD I NEVER CHECKED A BAG! That would have been a nightmare! Never again will I book this airline! They are worse than Spirit or Frontier.

They then delayed us to 8:15. -Once they notified us of that they made it very clear no one would receive a voucher or refund for this inconvenience because this was happening due to weather, which again made no sense because another Allegiant plane landed safely shortly before -8:15 rolls around and we are told by the Allegiant manager that a passenger in Savannah pulled a life vest and they are trying to repair it, now it looks like we’re delayed to 10:30. -At 10:00 we are told a different story by another employee, a passenger in Savannah damaged the door and it’s not repairable therefore they are sending a new plane for us from Cincinnati, now we’re delayed to midnight. -Another note they told us, was since a passenger damaged the plane there would be no vouchers or refunds because it was “out of their control”. -Midnight happens and at 12:15 we finally board this new plane. Sit on it for an hour, only to be told that the sensor on one of the doors is not working and they are trying to fix it. -They tell us they are going to give us drink service to help with this inconvenience BUT we have to pay for our alcoholic drinks! -1:45 am we get off the plane, they finally cancel the flight and say it is rescheduled for the afternoon that day.

Due to adverse weather conditions, the flight was understandably cancelled. However, the handling of arrangements following this cancellation was deeply disappointing. I was rebooked on a flight 24 hours later and accommodated at the Millennium Airport Hotel Dubai. Regrettably, the hotel's standards were subpar; the room was unclean and the beds were unsanitary, which resulted in a skin rash. Additionally, the quality of the food provided was poor. The subsequent experience at the airport on April 17, 2023, compounded my frustration. The rescheduled flight was subject to continuous delays, announced at 30-minute intervals, ultimately departing at significantly later than the planned time of 8:20 AM. I was informed that the deferments were due to a lack of ground staff and crew availability. During this prolonged period, we were confined to the gate area from approximately 11:00 AM to 2:00 PM without access to food and water, as we were instructed to dispose of all bottles prior to entry. The treatment received by passengers during this time was not only inconvenient but also disrespectful. The lack of clear communication and proper facilities during the delay was inconsiderate and unprofessional. Given these experiences, I am compelled to reconsider my future travel plans with Emirates. I have previously held Emirates in high regard and chosen it over other carriers for its reputed customer service and reliability. However, this incident has significantly impacted my perception of your airline. I kindly request a formal apology and an explanation for the handling of this situation. Additionally, I believe compensation is due for the discomfort and inconvenience caused. I hope that feedback such as this can be used constructively to improve Emirates' service standards.

I was thinking I'd check the cash upgrade price from time to time and see if it dips low enough that I just pay to upgrade. Before I put myself on the waitlist, it was $2300 for PP and $4600 for Polaris, which are both silly. If it doesn't ever get to a lower price, I can always put myself back on the mileage waitlist 2-3 weeks before the flight. But now, the website says that no cash upgrades are available and my only option is the mileage waitlist. Is this because I was on the waitlist, and United's systems haven't updated yet to show me cash prices, or is it an inventory management thing where they really aren't letting people buy up to higher classes because they think they can sell the seats outright?

I was very happy sitting at the Delhi airport to fly. But suddenly at airport I got to know that my flight got cancelled at 1:00AM on Jan 19. I reached out to the Help Desk team at airport, called Customer Support team to help me in rescheduling my flight as the cancellation is because of the Emirates and they let the customer know about the cancellation just 3 hours prior to the flight departure time from Delhi. Help Desk at airport: When I reached out to the Help Desk team, they replied stating, “There is nothing in our hands, you need to reach out to the customer support team”. Customer Support team: When I called Customer support team, they replied, “All the flights has been cancelled from today. Even we don’t know when there will be the next available flights. You need to wait until further notice”. This is the response what is received from the team. I just foolishly believed in them and was waiting for their further notice to reschedule my flight.

Emirates team cancelled the flight. Team informed about the cancellation just prior to 3 hours because of which even I cannot do anything. Team did not provide me with any alternate flight. I suffered from these many issues only because of the Emirates. So, instead of proving me with better refund or any compensation, they have thrown $275 refund on me.

I was in the first group to board but as usual there was not space in the overhead bin over the 2 row seats. It was stressful since the flight attendant Eddy, and then he called Luis, was very very rude and didn't assist me at all. He expected me to use any available bin, even if it meant the last row; and even if I have paid, I will have had to wait at the end of the flight in order to grab my carry-on going from a 2nd row seat to a last row - which doesn't make any sense. JetBlue claim that if you Pay you will get the following: ""For more certainty and speed (and less stress) during the boarding process, our new carry-on bag policy starting 7/20/21 guarantees overhead bin space on domestic flights within the U.S. for customers who purchased their tickets on or after 2/25 traveling on a Blue, Blue Extra and Mint fare, or who book an Even More Space seat (on all legs, if connecting)—or you get a $25 Travel Bank credit valid for 12 months. That’s right—no more guessing if there will be room for your bag on board, no matter when you board."" However, the process is still very stressful if you are traveling with JetBlue and after you pay you can't even find one space overhead. The flight attendant Eddy just told me that it was shared space and I had to find any other space. How many people boarded before me if I was the first group on a 2nd seats?

I sat in Seat A3. The seat was EXQUISITE TORTURE for me. I could never choose to fly on Southwest again. The seat back: appeared to have a vinyl cover that was full width, but beneath the cover was a much narrower hard metal rectangular frame (maybe 15 or 16 inches in width) with practically no cushion at all. Beyond the edges of the metal frame the vinyl cover was merely over nothing at all, just blank space. So my back was being pressed into a hard rectangular metal frame the entire flight. The seat bottom: Was raised and full in the rear of the seat, and pressed flat and worn out towards the front of the seat, which necessarily pushed my bottom forward towards the front of the seat - I constantly felt like I was falling out of the seat and had to push my bottom back, which then resulted in my back being crunched by the barely-cushioned, extremely narrow metal frame sticking me in the back the entire time. THEN, the aisle is so narrow that the very decent flight attendant could not help but bump into every passenger as she walked up and down the aisle. This prevented me from getting any nap during the flight, being bumped in the shoulder. I watched, and noticed that she bumped into most shoulders as she walked down the aisle. I attempted to walk the aisle myself and was unable to avoid bumping passengers shoulders, etc. I recently flew in a economy seat on United Airlines and experienced NONE of these problems. It was reasonably comfortable on United.

O Barato pode sair Caro!,"Aqui você precisa entender bem o que está comprando, senão, o barato pode sair caro! Na classe econômica, não há serviço de bordo. Nem água é servida. Eles dão água, mas você precisa ir buscar na galley/cozinha do avião. Existe a opção de compra de alguns lanches, bebidas, chocolates e macarrão instantâneo no avião. Porém, esses itens são vendidos em dólar e eles não aceitam dinheiro em espécie, somente cartões. Na maioria dos voos, é utilizada a aeronave Airbus, modelo A320Neo, que é uma ótima aeronave. Porém, na configuração da Avianca, de alta densidade, o espaço entre as poltronas é o mínimo. Pessoas com mais de 1,75 de altura não se acomodam nada bem. O encosto não reclina e não existe aquela telinha no encosto da frente com filmes e séries. Então, o trecho GRU/BOG ou BOG/GRU de cerca de 6 horas de viagem, com essa aeronave é muito complicado. Eventualmente, esse voo é realizado com o Boeing 787, que é um avião maior e, nesse caso, o espaço entre as poltronas é maior, elas reclinam e há a tela com algumas opções de filmes e séries. Mas a utilização dessa aeronave Boeing é eventual e depende da sua sorte. Atente para as passagens super baratas em que nem a bagagem de mão está incluída (XS). Nesse caso, você não consegue adquirir com antecedência, somente no check-in online, por exorbitantes US$ 110,00! As bagagens que vão no porão, de 23kg, você consegue, por cerca de US$ 50,00.

We were excited to experience not only the destination but the flight because we had never flew with Emirates and were expecting a bit of luxury. We couldn't be further from the truth. We boarded the plane, seats weren't as roomy or luxury as expected although the entertainment system seemed OK. The plane moved about 10 metres but there was a strange noise coming from the engine. We were told the plane malfunctioned so awaited an engineer. We sat on the plane for 6 hours while they tried to fix it. In all that time we were offered water and a croissant. Staff were miserable and rude- obviously looking annoyed that their shift had been extended. Finally, we were told to disembark the plane as they couldn't fix it and were asked to collect our luggage and join a huge check in queue again. After waiting on the queue we were told that we had been booked on a flight 24 hours later from Manchester (3 hour bus journey). We were advised to call Emirates to see if we could book onto an earlier flight but staff did not know what the number would be. So I googled the number, gave them a call and was told they couldn't help as we booked the holiday as a package holiday so needed to call Emirates holidays instead. However, Emirates holidays staff don't work out of hours so had to stick with the allocated flight. Not sure why it had to be do complicated. We were advised buses had been booked and would arrive in 20 minutes. So everyone went and waited outside the airport for these buses. We waited and waited. Staff (if you could find one as they kept disappearing) kept saying they would be 10 minutes. 2 hours later waiting outside they finally arrived. We started our long journey to Manchester. At this point, still only had been offered the shot size glass of water and croissant. We arrived at Manchester 2.30am in the morning and were told if we wanted breakfast we had to get up at 7am-8am as breakfast closed at 8am. So, sleep deprived and with children, we got up had breakfast and boarded the bus to airport at 9am. We arrived at the airport, no food vouchers were on offer. We arrived at Dubai over 24 hours later than we should have. But because of the extra travel and minimal sleep, it was more 48 hours we lost out on. If that wasn't bad enough, when we complained to Emirates holidays about our delay and experience we were told they wouldn't take responsibility and to contact Emirates instead. Although Emirates provided the compulsory compensation for the delayed flight, they would not comment on my full complaint of missing out on paid accommodation and half board meals, poor customer service both on the plane and on the ground, extra airport expenses, and the significant changes to the holiday. So they passed me back to Emirates Holidays. Emirates holidays regused to answer my complaint in full. I requested a refund for the losses above but was told we werent entitled to it and would not address all the points raised, even when I asked for it to be escalated to a manager. They said the standard flight delay compensation is all they offer and try and claim through my holiday insurance instead. The customer service has been the worst we have experienced across all airlines we have flown with. We have had 100% better service and comfort with budget airlines. When I speak to other people who have experienced similar with UK based travel companies, they have been refunded their flight and lost accommodation expenses. I am shocked a company the size of Emirates Holidays would refuse to address a complaint in full.

Wow! So if you're going far with a lot of stuff, it's worth it. Their mileage plan with their credit card is pretty good too. But otherwise, yikes! No assigned seats, for one. Make sure you check in the moment that 24 hour advance check-in window opens. You'll still get ""B"" boarding, because some people pay extra for early check-in. (Really?) Next - their seats. Really not accommodating. In fact, quite small. Considering that you never know who you'll be sitting next to, this could really be problematic. Another reason to check in as quickly as possible. The center seat is the last place you want to be. Don't expect direct flights; many destinations require a change of planes. Another issue. For a short, direct flight with a reasonable check-in letter (A or B), Southwest is great. Sit in an aisle seat and take the grandkids loads of presents. For longer flights, consider getting credit cards from other airlines, which wil give you at least one free bag and more comfortable seats, and a choice of where you would like to sit. (Although, in fairness, most airlines now charge for a large portion of their seats, even in the main cabin!)

I'll continue to fly Spirit bc they are always alot cheaper!,SpiritAir,trip_advisor,['Assurance'] 13011,Left to fend for myself miles away from home!,"My JetBlu experience! Long but please read, share and help me! I flew my family of 5 and my mother (6 total) to Puerto Rico June 28th - July 10th. Prior to leaving I get notification my mother has been removed front the flight home and rescheduled a day earlier. So 2 days before leaving I am scrambling to reschedule the other 5 tickets with JetBlu so we can travel tougher. So now we are leaving a day early on July 9th instead. On the 9th we get to the Airport to return to Albuquerque from Puerto Rico. We are told our flight is delayed 3 hours and will miss our reconnecting flight in New York. After being in line and taking with the reps for 2 hours we are told the only flight from NY to ABQ for us is on July 14th. We are told there is nothing they can do for us in Puerto Rico and must fly to NY to see what they can do there. They cancel our reconnecting flight as we are not going to be there in time and rebook it for the 14th. So now I have my family on a flight to NY not knowing what we are supposed to do when we get there. We land in NY and go to the JetBlue counter. The lady says they have no rooms available and cannot rent us a car to drive home but will call her manager. The manager walks up saying “Stick to your guns, No, No, No” before even looking at our file on the screen and what’s happening. We again are told there is nothing they can do for us. I have myself, my wife, 3 kids and my mother in the airport being told we have nowhere to stay and cannot get a flight for 5 days. We frantically start calling my wife’s aunt who lives in NY but are unable to get ahold of them. The Manager says the only thing he can do is get us a Lyft to their house. We explained we haven’t gotten ahold of anyone but with nothing else to do we accept. They then get us a Lyft that is too small! After begging the driver to take us as it’s now 12am and we have been in lines for 3 hours at NY JetBlu customer service he allows us to pile in and place luggage all over our laps. We’re taking to my wife’s Aunts apartment and dropped off in front of a locked door as a sign that says “Doorman will be back in 5 min is posted”. So now my family is standing outside a locked door in NY in the rain. JetBlu left us on a street corner in NY for 5 days without a care. The doorman let’s us in and we are soaked still frantically calling my wife’s aunt as the doorman says we can’t stay there without permission. So again, here we are being thrown out on the streets of NY by JetBlu. Thank God after about 30min we were able to get permission to go in as they are out of town but the doorman has spare keys. So now my family is stuck in NY at a house we’ve never been to and a flight not set for 5 days. I am simply hoping our flight on the 14th goes through now! To add insult I got an email today from JetBlu they are sorry for the travel issues and have given a credit of $50. That’s $8.33 for each of us to enjoy another JetBlu flight experience! I am beyond furious and have never been so scared and frustrated in my life! I am at a loss and don’t know what to do! UPDATE ** I was now offered $50 per ticket if they all create an account.

When I paid for it, there was a note that there would be an extra charge for overweight bags. Nowhere on their website that I could find does it say how much. Imagine my surprise to get charged an extra $50 on top of the $30 already paid for my 2 lb overage. I think that is excessive, and I was totally unprepared for it.

It was a huge plane (836 I believe) with spacious overhead luggage compartments. The meals and wine were included in the price of the ticket. There were sufficient washroom facilities and leg room offered in our coach seats. The seasoned staff were at times jovial and crusty-working this 8.5 hour flight is challenging I suspect. The in flight movies were current and helped pass the time away. There were blankets and pillows supplied for every seat. The staff came by with snacks and a second offering of complimentary drinks. We traveled on both the evening and day flights. The trip home we had an unfortunate delay of an hour but the captain was good at keeping us informed. In all honesty, I was dreading the travel-people were expressing pitty for us being booked on Air Canada but, over all, it was a great experience. Of note-our flight home was canceled less than three hours before it was scheduled to depart. The explanation was “plane maintenance”. We had noticed that there were several empty seats on the plane so it is difficult to not suspect that the decision to perform maintenance was not, at least in part, based on occupancy. Further, there were two alternatives offered, both for the next day, and no details on the logistics of how this would play out with respect to paid accommodations etc. Further, the alternative flights had awful connections. However, we did manage to book seats on another flight that day and the Air Canada agent was very accommodating. Not sure what the alternative would have looked like.

As I am over 50 and wanted to see a number of different areas, I didn't want to spend too much time on buses. I took five flights with Avianca (Bogota--Medellin, round trip Medellin--Neiva, Medellin--Cartagena, Santa Marta--Bogota) during that time. I only had a few issues with the first trip (multiple delays), but all of the other ones were on time. Overall the communication was good (before, after, during) and the check in and baggage pickups were smooth. People often just take the time to write reviews about negative experiences, so I wanted to take a few minutes to write a positive one. If I go to Colombia again, I will definitely travel with Avianca. Maybe this airline is better within Colombia than outside of it?? I did speak to a passenger on my return flight to the US (with a different airline) who said she'd made a reservation to fly with Avianca (US to Colombia), but they never found her confirmation, her reservation nor refunded her money.

During the pandemic I flew all other airlines who would disperse packed rows to empty seats so everyone wasn't sitting on top of each other. And Frontier has the flight attendants literally say this like they believe it and I quote ""it's about weight and balance people"". NO! it's about MONEY!!!

It wasn't a problem for us but if passengers had a lot of luggage (business class passengers are allowed 2 carry ons and a personal item) and the cabin was full, space might be a problem. Also, I always have trouble with the suite doors, can't get them closed. I think the lighting could be improved, especially if you want to read. On the outbound flight my husband's video screen didn't work. They tried to reboot it but unsuccessfully so he was left unable to access any of the in flight entertainment.

Well 3 Days isn’t 7 Days so I offered to pay whatever the change fee would be and choose new dates. This wasn’t an option either.

That is why this review will be just that, nothing other than the facts, a true honest recounting of our experience with Air Canada, nothing more, nothing less. This is not my opinion, these are just the facts, plain and simple. The image attached shows a fraction of our tour group of some 60-or-so Australians, of which I was a part of, sitting in the baggage check-in of Vancouver airport. In total we would sit at that check-in for 7 hours before walking out the doors again. But how did we get there? We had gone on a New York tour as part of a performing arts school excursion, but as there are no direct flights between Australia and New York, we had a connecting flight at Vancouver airport. On the way back, our New York flight had been delayed due to bad weather, which was obviously beyond Air Canada's control. As you could not hold up a connecting flight for 2 hours, we subsequently missed our flight, and insurance luckily paid for an emergency hotel. Most of us felt shattered at what had happened, now effectively stranded in Vancouver for a day, but we all still had the bounce of knowing that last night was a temporary inconvenience, and we had all been rebooked on a flight for that night, and we'd be back in Australia soon enough. As we got to Vancouver Airport, presuming we were now only hours away from boarding our flight back home, problems quickly arose. And those problems were numerous, apparent, and devastating to say the least. Despite knowing that we were traveling as a group, and that this group primarily consisted of minors, Air Canada had decided to book us across multiple different flights to multiple different locations, some, including myself, not even booked to leave until the next day. In fact, all adults had been booked onto one flight, leaving scattered groups of minors spread across the country supposedly made to fend for themselves. What began from that point on was a tense standoff between the group coordinator and the Air Canada luggage staff. Two flights were planned to leave for Australia that night, and he began the arguous process of attempting to coordinate 60-something people onto those 2 flights, regardless of what flight it was on, as both had connecting flights to the same end point. Obviously this couldn't be done, as there aren't enough empty seats, leading to a randomly selected group of 11 being put up to stay behind to sacrifice transfer for the rest of us. While still trying to confirm guaranteed flights for the rest of us, Air Canada, despiting knowing who was staying behind, and that none of them had put through their luggage, randomly decided to pull 11 of the available bags that had been put up and just declared on a whimsy who was staying. As the group coordinator said to the staff, ""This just isn't good enough."". It was clear at that point the staff were attempting to find reasons not to let at least some of us on. But for those of us who supposedly had a guaranteed flight home that night, Air Canada's dilly dallying and faffing about when it came to handling our situation, which at that point was reaching its 7th hour with no progress, we then had under an hour to get our luggage through, get through security, and get to the gate. The first flight left, and the second went soon after, leaving a group of 60-something Australians stranded in Vancouver for a second night. People were breaking down in tears as Air Canada effectively held the door open for us on our way out, the group coordinator staying behind to deal with Air Canada directly until he knew he had an absolute guarantee of everyone he was responsible for flying home tomorrow. Everyone had a lexinomicon of mental health problems, we were running low on medications to deal with a flu that was running like wildfire within the group, and parents of the students were blowing up the coordinator's phone demanding answers of what was going on, answers he simply didn't have. All the while, everyone just had to keep repeating the mantra of ""everything's ok, we're going home tomorrow"", which was slowly become unbelievable to most. Someone even missed a funeral because of Air Canada's handling of the situation. The principal of the school had even offered to straight up pay for individual tickets herself just to get everyone home. But while we luckily avoided this chaos come the second day, being able to book everyone onto one-of-two flights returning to Australia on the second night, it was still pondered upon why this had to happen in the first place. And just to top it off, one of those in the group had told me her luggage had been damaged in transit, and is now effectively in a war with Air Canada to try and get recompensation for the damages, but this seems to be going nowhere. We have all sworn off ever travelling with Air Canada again.

I helped her with luggage from the X-ray and pushed the chair plus carry-ons through the customs machines and as we approached the Air Canada desk and complained; we were told it was our fault for leaving security without waiting for the ghost helper that never showed up. We abandoned the wheelchair and I helped my wife walk with her cane to the lounge. I have flown over one million miles with AC; the poor service for handicapped people is unacceptable.

I may never see my bag again and they told me that they will not refund my money they will not pay me my money back for my baggage and they will not replace any of my items even though I made sure and took a picture of all of my items in the bag 4 proof right before she loaded it onto the conveyor belt. I have never in all my years of flying had this happen by the way their seats are getting smaller and smaller on the flights because then that pushes for bigger people to pay for first class seats I heard a flight attendant talking about it by the way all so you don't get any free beverage not even water like you do on other planes with other airlines you don't even get a bag of peanuts or pretzels nothing mind you I was on a flight from Providence Rhode Island to Orlando Florida but the longest one was from Orlando Florida to Oklahoma City Oklahoma if I could have gave 0 on the scale I definitely would but you have to at least press 1. If you want to lose your luggage and be treated like crap go ahead and fly this Airline. By the way was one of the workers yelled at me across the entire room which was pretty big and told me you can't go in there so when I approached her politely and said excuse me don't ever yell across the room at me I'm not five years old I asked for her name she refused to give it to me and then she covered her badge I got the name her name was Stephanie and I immediately reported her to her supervisor which was at the desk readily behind her and was very curious as to why she would cover up her name tag when that is their policy that any person in that airport should be able to obtain a name from an individual working there so like I said if you want to go through the same crap I did flyfrontier and have a good day",FrontierAirlines,trip_advisor,"['Responsiveness', 'Assurance']" 13155,Stay away from Spirit Airlines because of their horrible customer service,"When I booked my family's flights with Spirit, I thought I knew what I was getting into. I went in with my eyes open about having to pay for carry-on luggage and how you even pay for water on the flight. I was a little surprised at the cheapness of the seats, but I figured you get what you pay for. I was ok with all of that. What I didn't know was the pain that Spirit customer service would put me through trying to get reimbursed for a flight I paid out of pocket for when a flight I was booked on got cancelled. The situation was a little unusual, and so it probably didn't fit into the Spirit customer service standard playbook. But their customer service is soooo bad. It's designed to prevent you from ever talking to a person. And their text and email responses always get shunted to new people. You simply can't have a conversation with a single person there. With every text/email response you get back, it's clear they haven't read anything that you took the time to write before. They also take about 4 hours to get back to you, even when texting. Imagine being in an airport, your second leg just got cancelled, and you're trying to get on the next flight out of there. 4 hour turnaround in this situation is a crazy long time. And that's exactly what I had to go through. I'm now on month 6 of trying to get a refund from Spirit, and I'm giving up. I've sent them dozens of emails, all re-explaining the obvious things they could have read if they only cared just a little bit. But it's like talking to a wall. A wall that was put in place on purpose to keep you from getting any service. If you book with Spirit, and your flights don't get cancelled, you'll probably be satisfied with the money you saved. But if anything happens where you need to talk to Spirit's customer service, you'll have my undying sympathy. I flew once on Spirit, and I'll never do it again. Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me.",SpiritAir,trip_advisor,"['Responsiveness', 'Empathy']" 13156,"The best no frills, no fuss","For the two of us I spent exactly half of what I was going to spend for the least of any other airline!

With assistance in planning from a very good OBGYN we booked two months in advanced, Tracked weather for a week prior to departure. Received notice from United Airlines on day prior and on date of departure that our flights were ""on schedule"". Up at 0300, arrived at airport in Hobbs, New Mexico at 0500; all is well. Small regional airport with only one carrier (United) and currently only one destination (Houston). But it is closest to home in Carlsbad and that home for us now! My wife and I boarded the plane at 0530 hours for 0600 departure; all is well. At 0610 we are directed to deplane due to two hour ""hold"" issued by Houston's, George Bush Int. Airport. Knowing we had a tight schedule and that the only flights from Hobbs are United, and that they only fly to Houston, we asked United ramp/gate attendant about options/alternate airports (i.e. Midland, El Paso, Roswell,Lubbock) that may have flights that do not have to pass thru Houston. She proudly informed me that ""this flight is going to Houston"" it will just be a short delay. Two hours later the same attendant announced that the ""hold"" in Houston was now a ""ground stop"" but not to worry, she had checked the radar in Houston and ""everything will be cleared-up in the next 30 minutes"". It is now 0835, if flight leaves in next 30 minutes, with calculated flight-time in mind, we will still miss our connecting flight. When I inquire about this situation where we may not be able to get to Columbus before our granddaughter arrives the same United attendant told us not to worry because all flights were being held-up so our connection would still be made. Been flying for 50 years, that just sounded wrong. At this time we asked to be re-booked out of another airport and was informed, once again, ""this flight is going to Houston"" and then she added ""and all connecting flights would be rescheduled"" and not to worry. An hour later the same attendant announced yet again that the ground stop in Houston was still in effect. At this time a passenger in front of me asked if he could drive to, and get on another United flight from, Lubbock or Midland, TX. ""I'm sorry sir, all of those flights are now full""; obviously the 20-30 passengers that hadn't trusted her earlier had re-booked themselves and left Hobbs over an hour ago. When I asked her what she could do to help me and my wife she replied, ""noting""; you will just have to wait here. Knowing that there were no other flights for today from Hobbs I asked about getting reservations for the next day, just in case she was wrong and this flight was not going o Houston today. ""Sorry, all flights for tomorrow are fully booked"". The guy sitting next to my wife stated as he was preparing to exit, ""yep, just booked the last seat for tomorrow myself; see ya"". When we asked if we could just cancel our flight and get our baggage off the plane the same attendant (clearly the one in charge) stated, ""well if you want to but we are not refunding your tickets because we haven't canceled this flight"". I explained to her that she obviously did not totally grasp the concept of ""flight"", that being an aircraft, in the air, headed toward a destination. I further tried to explain that the ""guarantees"" of a flight going to Houston were not realistic and that we really just needed to get to Columbus, Ohio, not Houston. I again asked, ""can you please check and see what is available from some other airport?"" ""I can not"" was all we got. By now a very nice TSA agent came over and in almost a whisper (as if somewhat intimidated by the United employee) stated, ""this happens all the time here"", and went on to suggest we call another airline and try El Paso or Roswell. We canceled. It took another hour for United to get us our luggage and four hours to drive to El Paso, TX where American Airlines had some lovely first class seats available and waiting to fly us to Columbus, Ohio.

Not only did they not help all that much getting the flight rebooked, they also claimed that they ""don't provide hotels for bad weather"" so me and my husband had to pay for our own hotel for the night. However, another couple that was on our same trip and the same flight that got delayed and also missed the connecting flight not only got their hotel paid for, but also provided a taxi to and from the airport. I have no idea why me and my husband were treated so differently than this other couple but it is absolutely disgusting. After that we had numerous other issues pop up as the rebooked flight included 2 layovers and every time we needed help the staff was rude and condescending. Finally, when it was time for our connecting international flight, there was another issue and the staff was once again not helpful and we stood in line to be helped and we were flat-out ignored while multiple other customers were helped. We did not get helped until an older lady behind us stood up for us and demanded that we be helped. Then to top it off, when we finally landed one of our bags was delayed, and even though we were abroad for 17 days, the bag never made it to us and just kept going from airport to airport but never making it to our hotel, and on top of that, I filed a claim for reimbursement for 17 days worth of clothes, the hotel, and the ubers we had to take to get the clothes and I still haven't heard back on our reimbursement claim even though it has been over a month. I will never ever fly with this company again because the awful treatment me and my husband received was beyond disgusting and I can only think that we were treated so differently than this other couple either because we are much younger and so they were treating us as not a priority because we are college students or because me and my husband are an interracial couple. Regardless though, this treatment was absolutely unacceptable.",Delta,trip_advisor,"['Responsiveness', 'Assurance']" 13225,"Remember that, in the end, we're all just cattle... (DAL3855 DTW->HPN 4/19/24)","First, a caveat... there is a portion of this nightmare that was beyond Delta's control. That being said, this could have been handled far, FAR better than it was. I was flying home from NOLA (MSY) and my connection was through DTW. Made it from MSY to DTW with zero issues other than the text alerts that my departure time had been moved from 9:20pm to 10:00pm and eventually 10:45pm. No indication of why, just that it had been moved. Get to DTW and talked to a gate agent to find out it was a crew problem - the crew that was supposed to fly the plane was going to arrive late so our flight was delayed. At this point, I'm disappointed, but also know that this sort of thing happens. Also sucks for my wife who is picking me up from the airport, but we'll get through it. We eventually board and take off a few minutes before the later rescheduled time (10:39 vs 10:45). Flight goes relatively well and I notice via FlightAware that the pilot has been pushing the speed a bit so I'm happier. We start our descent. We're on our way down. I'm familiar enough with the sound changes of a landing to know that we're getting pretty close to the ground. And then we're pulling up. After a few minutes, the pilot comes on and says something about ground minimums and that we're going to circle for 30 minutes and try again. Well crap. We circle for 30 minutes and the second attempt gets aborted even sooner. We quickly climb over 10,000ft and the pilot informs us that we'll be unable to land in HPN tonight and we're being rerouted back to DTW. Not to any of the major NYC airports. Or something close to HPN. Nope, we're flying the 90 minutes back to DTW. Fortunately, WiFi was back on so I could text my wife and tell her to go home. We finally land in DTW around 2:15am. We're told by the gate agents that it was due to low cloud cover and the ILS being down in White Plains (that's the part that wasn't Delta's fault). They also said that the plane we just got off of would be the same plane we'd use with a 7:00am departure to try to go back. With boarding starting at 6:30am and it already being past 3:00am, that means less than 3 hours of sleep. It ended up being even less than that because the gate across the hall started up with outbound flight announcements at 4:30am. And while hotel vouchers were offered, it was also suggested that we ""stay close"" so that we can get out quickly in the morning. We did get meal vouchers. A whole $12 per person. Go ahead, try to get any kind of food approaching a meal for $12 or less in an airport. Granted, everything was closed until at least 5:00am anyway so it's not like we could actually get anything for a while. We did finally board, did finally take off (15 minutes late), did get all the way to White Plains, only to have the exact same issue. I mean, it's not like anyone could have radioed ahead and checked to see if the ILS had been fixed or if the weather had cleared. That would be too easy. Instead, let's fly a plane full of passengers down and take a look. So, we got diverted. Fortunately, this time, it was just to Albany International (ALB). We were told that we were going to ""wait there until the weather cleared"". We had the option of getting off the plane and would be able to reboard once they were ready to try again. As we're getting off though, the gate agents hadn't been told that. They were under the impression that everyone leaving the plane was finding their own way home from there. After that confusion cleared up, we asked for any kind of an ETA or information about what the plan was. We got back a whole lot of ""I don't know"" and ""your options are wait or find your own way home"". At this point, I had completely lost all faith in Delta's ability to get me safely to my final destination. Fortunately, my wife was comfortable driving up to the Albany area so I abandoned the balance of my flight. She arrived a couple hours later and we drove home. Yes, I'm bitter. Yes, I'm upset. And yes, I know that Delta will never do anything to make any of this better. As I said in my title... we're all just cattle to them.

Choosing a Day departure from Manchester to ease babies travel. Initially the head steward was very polite and friendly putting us at ease. I think he had a newly qualified crew on the Airbus 380... sitting in seat 52 with a prebooked sky-cot couldn't have chosen a worse seat! Right by the kitchen... the 1st meal was ok and we were offered a Ellas kitchen pouch for the baby. When the lights went down for a sleep that's where the worst part started, the skycot is right under a TV screen, not ideal for little ones to sleep, and our seat right by the weighted curtain which was continually opened and slapped against my hubbys legs causing a bruise... and with every open the light would shine into your eyes as if being under interrogation! The 2nd meal was a measly sandwich nothing much to write about. Oh and to add the stewardess in the gantry (who had been reprimanded a few times during the flight) really had her nose out of joint, with all the banging and slamming of food trolleys... so no sleep or rest. The 2nd part was not much better as we had the same seats the food again a sandwich and some mediocre meal..but we we're all exhausted by this time that we merley picked at the meals and not even an offer of a meal for the baby at either serving! Change of seats on the return flight to row 42 away from the kitchen, the skycot again under a screen and medicore meals on both return flights and eventually on the Dubai UK leg I asked for some babyfood as ended up sharing my meal with him... to which never arrived! The seats in the A380 are ok and a little bigger than Boeing with a little more leg room. The loos are up a few stairs which is tricky when having to take baby up for a change. There is no option of premium Economy upgrade which is unfortunate. Maybe bring back the eye masks to try help passangers get some rest!

Never again.",FrontierAirlines,trip_advisor,"['Reliability', 'Responsiveness']" 13229,Mechanical Defects from hell,"This was the worst flight ever. I have been a loyal Delta Customer for several years, but this experience has shaken that loyalty. To make matters worse, our flight from Greensboro to San Juan at the beginning of our vacation was delayed due to a mechanical problem as well. Even though we were able to race to the gate in Atlanta arriving about 5 minutes after the scheduled time for departure, Delta did not hold the flight for us or any other passengers making the connection. We missed the connecting flight in Atlanta and were rerouted to San Juan via JFK in NYC!!! Instead of arriving at 2 in the afternoon, we arrived at 8 PM at night missing a half day of our vacation. But back to the awful experience of Flight 599 that was scheduled to leave San Juan at 3:20 in the afternoon on 2/29/20. We boarded the plane on time. Then people noticed a liquid dripping from the right wing. Soon thereafter the pilot came on the intercom and explained that there is a value under each wing that is used to drain water from fuel tanks. He said, ""Nothing to worry about, Water is heavier than fuel oil and migrates to the bottom of the tank. "" However, a short while later, we were told that they decided to drain the fuel in the right wing and transfer it to the left wing. This process created a small risk of fire so we had to exit the plane. So we all exited this big plane which took about 25 minutes. As we crowded against the windows in the concourse, we saw men in hazmat suits and fire engines around the plane. It did not look good. More time went by and we were told that the valve was broken and needed to be replaced. Some people used their phones to try and book alternative flights with little success. Friends with whom we were traveling were able to book a later flight from Atlanta to Greensboro when it became obvious that we would not make the original connecting flight. I tried but was unable to rebook our Atlanta connecting flight. As it was getting close to dinner time, snacks and drinks were brought out for us. This seemed like a good idea at the time but in hindsight, it was not. About 6:30 or 7 PM we were told that there was not a replacement valve in San Juan. One would have to be flown over from Atlanta. about a 3 hour flight. Our estimated time of departure at that point was maybe 10 PM. They then brought out sandwiches, but we were never offered a meal voucher. I, like many people, had eaten too many unhealthy snacks. I wish we were offered the sandwiches or a meal voucher initially. The pilot was very gracious and apologetic. He did his best to keep us informed. About 8 or 8:30 PM he told us that his crew's time was up and a whole new crew had to be found and flown from Atlanta to San Juan. He strongly encouraged us to stay with the flight. Although some people were rebooking flights for the next day. The pilot assured us that many people would greet the plane in Atlanta and have connecting flights information and, if necessary, hotel vouchers for us. The new expected time of departure became 12:30 am Sunday morning. While waiting for our flight to depart, I was able to book a flight from Atlanta to Greensboro Sunday morning at 8:30 am. We were upgraded to first class which we appreciated. We didn't depart San Juan until after 1 am Sunday morning. When we arrived in Atlanta there was one person at the gate. It was about 4:30 am. She was surly and worthless. She knew nothing about connecting flights or hotel vouchers. All she could tell all of us was ""go to the front of the airport."" I have transferred planes in Atlanta numerous time, but I have never checked in at Atlanta, like most of the people on our plane. I did not know how to find ""the front of the airport."" She could have said to ride the train to a certain stop, but NO"" all she said was ""Go to the front of the airport."" I was not familiar with that term. She answered no questions. So we, along with everyone else, got on the tram and rode it to the last stop. As we took the escalator up, we realized we were leaving the security area. When we found the Delta counter it was about 5 am. There were, I think, three staff people behind the counter. Since we were in ""Comfort+ seats"" on the fight to Atlanta, we were one of the first to arrive at the counter. They knew nothing about our flight's delay. They were totally unprepared to be inundated by a host of upset customers. They knew nothing about hotel vouchers. They didn't know which hotels in the area would accept vouchers. They had to call their supervisor. The bottom line was they strongly discouraged us from asking for a hotel voucher. They could not give us meal vouchers. So what we had been told would await us in Atlanta did not happen. Delta really let us down. So we got our boarding passes for the 8:30 am flight to Greensboro. We had to stand in lines to go through security at about 5:30 am on little or no sleep. That was no fun at all. But we finally made it back to Greensboro safe and sound.

You can upgrade on regional flights if there are seats available, but over the past few years they have no clear reason for not upgrading you on regional flights to first class. You can be #1 on the list to upgrade and be completely skipped over with no explanation.

We've had much better service on short haul KLM flights. The toilets on this 6 hour long flight soon ran out of toilet paper, but even when the cabin staff were informed, they did nothing and continued to chat and giggle in the galley. From about one hour into the flight, a gang of young people in their 20s started to have a party in the row of seats in front of us, chatting loudly, drinking, laughing and kissing and groping one another. This bothered many of the other passengers around them, but the cabin attendants did nothing except continue to serve them more drinks, and occasionally laugh and giggle along with them. At one point, 6 people were giggling and cavorting in the middle row of seats designed for four. Is this safe in an airliner of over 400 people?

The car seat buckle I have to attach my son's car seat to a rolling dolly looks exactly like a seatbelt extender and went missing while on flight. My best guess is someone grabbed it off the seat next to me or off the floor and too it thinking it was an extender. We were the last people on the plane (mom + toddler) and I was nearly in tears because now I had a loose car seat and toddler to manage through an airport. There was a pile of seat belt extenders on a seat but I was told those were theirs and sorry but someone must've taken mine. They told me to go to the Delta help desk so I did. Trying to hold back my tears as I'm struggling to manage, I asked the help desk for help and they called a manager on me and treated me like a criminal or something.

The emergency seat had plenty of legroom and the plane was very clean.",Allegiant,trip_advisor,['NA'] 13302,Classy airline ,"We flew with Emirates on the 29th of September from Brisbane, Australia to Manchester via Dubai. The Brisbane to Dubai flight was on a newer aircraft then the Dubai to Manchester flight. The first leg was a red eye flight but I couldn’t sleep at all. The seats were comfy enough but were hard to sleep in. There was a school tour group in our section of the plane and omg the whole flight (15 hrs) they were yelling at each other from across the plane and kept changing seats and the teachers & flight attendants couldn’t care less. The check in lady in Brisbane was exceptional. She blocked the seat between myself and my travel partner which made the long haul flight somewhat bearable. Having that extra seat to stretch out was a god send. I have a wheelchair so when we made the booking we organised wheelchair assistance with them. We boarded first in Brisbane but I felt like the Emirates staff were talking about me behind my back because I’m in a wheelchair. Totally unacceptable Emirates!! The Dubai airport is a mess. They didn’t organise me assistance like promised. Had to walk from the gate, through security and then to our next gate (which happened to be located on the opposite side of terminal 3 Concourse A)!! before going through the security we tried to get assistance (literally a wheelchair or buggy , anything really) because I was struggling quite a lot (it was 35+ degrees Celsius and the airports aircon barely does anything). The lady at the transfer desk was the most unhelpful, rude person ever. She told us she would organise a wheelchair and said for us to sit down and wait. 20 minutes later we go back up to the desk and ask what’s happening because we only had a 2 hour layover to start with. She told us it was coming and we went and sat back down. 30 minutes later still nothing (we had seen at least 20 workers with empty wheelchairs or buggy’s in this time) finally a man comes and gets me, only to drop me off at another area around the corner where we were made to sit in a golf card while a man who didn’t speak much English and Cleary didn’t know how to do his job, took my boarding pass and refused to help me. We, along with 6 other people in need of assistance and in a similar situation to me were rudely told to wait. Eventually we gave up and walked to our gate. Dubai to Manchester flight was delayed by 40 mins because a few passengers didn’t board so we were made to wait in the overheated aircraft. Fast forward to our return flights and we arrived at Manchester airport 5 hrs before our flight to Dubai because we had just landed from a flight from Amsterdam. The lady at the Emirates desk refused to take our bags (we had checked in online) because apparently ‘you can only check in from 4 hrs before departure’!! The lovely young man at the boarding gate blocked the seat in between us again , thank god. He also moved us to the front of the plane. (It wasn’t a full flight). Dubai to Brisbane flight was the worse. 100% full flight (overbooked). The girl next to me vomiting all over me and the crew didn’t care. In Brisbane bags took an hour to arrive on the baggage belt.

I caught one when I was leaving. Her name was Lynette. I have a chronic illness and recent surgery. I couldn’t lift my luggage up and when I asked the attendant she just said yeah you’re gonna have to put that up. I said but I’m gonna need help. She walked away. I asked the next one who came by and she was also not going to help me. So finally third one came by and I said look I have asked to other tenants to help me with this and all I’ve been told is that yes it needs to go up but nobody will actually help me put it up. Finally this lady attendant helped me. However, when I first got on the plane I was in the last row of the first section. On the seating chart on United it doesn’t show that this is a last row next to the kitchen. It shows nothing behind it. It shows another food and beverage place somewhere else. So we were not sure what this area was when we were selecting our seats. When I got to the seat there was a really loud noise above me. Some kind of engine I guess. I asked the attendant if there would be any other open seats and if we could move because this was VERY loud. Louder than other areas of the plane. My husband has tinnitus and loud constant noises are very triggering and inflaming to his external ear and inner ear. You can actually see the redness when it happens. She told me that “it’s an airplane and this is what they sound like”. Well, no, it’s an airplane and yes there are noises but this noise is extra loud in this one spot. She decided to engage in an argument with me over the loudness of the area and seat switching. I said “look I’m not asking for anything special I’m just saying this is a really awkward place to sit. If there are extra seats could We have it.” She said I would need to “talk to my agent about it.“ I said “but my agent is not here you are. Normally you get on a plane And the flight attendants know how full the plane is and if there’s going to be any open seats. That is why I am asking you”. She had brown hair and probably in her late 40s. It should not have gotten this tense over something that is a very reasonable request given the circumstances. Not only that but my husband and I couldn’t even talk to each other without shouting because the seats are so far apart In that row and the noise was constant and LOUD. So the whole rest of the time I was worried that she would spit in my food or do something dirty. She tried to act nice after that but it just made me uncomfortable. And since the other attendants seemed so over-it and were not nice, the whole experience of business class was really wasted. An uncomfortable loud seat. Snarky attendants.What am I paying all this money for? It certainly wasn’t the bad food. The food was not great. And the place where they need the snacks for you to help yourself is a little questionable. The champagne and wine bottles are all sitting open with no one around. As a germ freak I kind of wondered what people do to it. But that’s just me.

Now I'll be late and almost completely miss the event I'm flying for. The plane still hasn't taken off despite being time for it to depart. Absolute garbage.,United,trip_advisor,['Reliability'] 13307,Nothing but lies and incompetence,"Booked the trip in October of 2021 for a January 2, 2022 flight so my son and wife could attend an event in LA. She is a nervous flier and wanted a direct flight. We don't live near a major airport so the 3 1/2 hour drive was actually somewhat reasonable given the cost of the flight and the late afternoon departure - no hotel required. Several weeks later Spirit advised that they cancelled the return flight. They were required to stay one more day at our expense in a somewhat pricy LA hotel. Too late to cancel and get a good rate on another airline. A couple days before departure we noticed their flight had been cancelled every day that week. We were concerned about cancelation of their flight on Sunday as it was less than half full - apparently other travelers knew not to roll the dice with Spirit. After several calls and many hours on hold - the longest call was 3 hours and 13 minutes - we moved the departure date to Saturday instead of Sunday. I told my wife they could screw with her for 30 hours and she would still be on time. During that last call I spoke to a supervisor at Spirit and was told that if the plane was canceled they would assist in getting them on another airline. She specifically told me they would not be abandoned. Their supervisor finally picked up my call after 1:00 AM, the 3 hour 13 minute call, and I was too groggy to remember to get her name. The wife and son left mid-morning on Saturday and got to Louisville about 1:00, well ahead of their 5:35 departure. Unfortunately, the plane showed being delayed at least twice before being cancelled. After a couple hours in line at the gate she was told they rescheduled her for Monday! They absolutely had to be in LA by Sunday night. That is why we changed to a Saturday departure. They didn't even offer to put them on their original flight that left Sunday. Were my wife and son actually expected to drive 3 1/2 hours back home and then come back two days later? Absolutely no effort was made by Spirit to get them on another carrier from Louisville. My wife even offered to drive the 100 miles to Cincinnati if they could get them on a flight Saturday night or Sunday. The only offer by Spirit was to wait until Monday for another Spirit flight. My wife walked down the terminal to the Southwest desk and was booked on a flight leaving Sunday. It took 2 stops, but by that point she didn't care. Cost us double what Spirit did, but as I write this review they are almost in Las Vegas with just a short flight to LAX. Thank you Southwest. I now understand why some of the other people attending the event questioned our selection of Spirit airlines. So let this be notice to all other potential Spirit travelers. It looks like I missed the class action suit against Spirit this past summer.

We sat on the runway with no gate for nearly 40 minutes and by the time I deplaned to make my connection I was going as fast as I could physically go to make the connection. I was the last person they allowed on the plane and were not willing to hold the flight for anyone else and apparently for the luggage as well. Upon arrival in Edinburgh I had no luggage and apparently Swissport handles the luggage there and could not be bothered to provide an incident number so that I could trace my bag or contact Air Canada. I attempted to call AC and after an hour on hold the call was disconnected on their end. I attempted to file online, but without a tracing or incident number their online process will not permit any further contact. I mean nothing, nada, no way to contact. I attempted to call again but got a message saying they were not taking any calls. Period. Done. Sorry- out of luck. I went in to purchase the clothing I needed to complete my travel and did my best to not let the situation affect my vacation. I would try every couple of days when I had a free moment to call…but again no success. Upon return, I stopped at the customer service desk to attempt to file an incident report. I had a three hour window. The man insisted to me that I could call the baggage department and would not believe me that I could not get through. He then insisted that I could file online and again did not believe me and so proceeded to scroll through his own phone , apparently check the veracity of my claim. He insisted that he could not file an incident report for me there and I would have to do so in chicago. Then, although I had been screened in Scotland, I was required to go through not one, but two screenings where they had no X-ray screening and because I have joint replacements I was patted down twice by people who did not speak French or English it seemed and have my one and only luggage (the backpack I carried on at the beginning of my trip), searched. I have a global entry pass, but again getting through customs was a long and arduous process where I watched a customs officer repeatedly question a woman and her nine year old son (the woman had global entry passes for them both) about previous travel to canada. Granted, I can’t know why, but it held up the line for global entry until another officer could see the building backup. I got to the gate in time to board, but because of the backup in customs, they decided to hold the plane for passengers. Wow! Couldn’t do that when I was in my way over?!? So an hour and twenty minute delay in the flight. I had a prepaid ride arranged to take me home from the Chicago airport so I was desperately trying to reach them before we left. When I arrived the line at the chicago Air Canada baggage counter was long with people who said they’re been waiting a long time and so I could not stay. The following morning I called and spent nearly three hours on the phone and finally got through to a reservation agent who was willing to help me get and incident number even though it was not her job. SHE was the only bright spot. I then received an email saying that my baggage was to be delivered that day by a service called “Where’s My Suitcase”. It did NOT arrive. When I tried to call Air Canada, again I could not get through. Not taking calls. Meanwhile I try to file for reimbursement for the clothing and personal items I needed to buy to complete my travel. Only the form will not allow you to file if you don’t fill out a field that asks when you received your bag! I didn’t have it so I could not file. They have a policy that says if you don’t file in 21 days you cannot request reimbursement. Nice huh?!? No bag and out of luck. I call and spend another two hours on hold and get through to someone who finally, after about 50 minutes tells me that FedEx has my bag and will deliver in 24 hours. Gives me a tracking number. At last!! But insists that I can file for reimbursement online despite my explanations as to why I cannot. You see, the bag would not actually make it to me in time for me to qualify to file for reimbursement. I demanded to talk to someone else who finally explained that I could complete the form by putting in todays date and then on the next page would be a field to put notes about the situation. The bag finally arrived 22 days after I last saw it. I filed for reimbursement but have no idea whether they will honor it or address in any timely fashion. I know there is a global problem right now (since I have returned home and done some research, and there were others on out your who had flown with other airlines and had lost, but all were able to easily get a tracking number. Air Canada….nope!

We ended up having more delays and our entire trip to Ireland through 3 airports took a total of 36 hours and then to land and find out some of our baggage didn't even make it was horrible. Our luggage did get to us three days later and we relaxed and had high hopes for our trip home but, that didn't go well either. To make it short our trip home took 28 hours our layover in Toranto took more time than our flights. We were very happy with how nice the flight staff and ticket agents were, they had boarding passes waiting when we got off the flights for our new flights and were very apologetic but, the rest of the experience was HORRIBLE.

My issues with Air Canada stem from one primary issue. The seats in business class (now Signature Class) experience a high rate of failure. These seats which were part of Air Canada's redesign of the business class cabins several years ago use an inflatable cushion. The problem is that they regularly develop leaks, and deflate, which leaves you feeling like you are lying on a park bench, with a metal slat digging into your back the entire flight. The service directors on the flights are generally aware of the issue, and do their very best to try and reinflate the seats, or where possible, move customers to open seats if they are available. They also will usually allow you to fill in the on board compensation form (which now has a specific checkbox item for seats deflating!!!). So far this year, I have experiences ~40 hours of broken Air Canada ""Signature Class"" seats -- including a very uncomfortable YYZ-YVR-SYD run in February. Which leads me to the second problem.

About five minutes later Allegiant gave it another shot and we somehow managed to claw our way into the sky without anything else shaking loose. Including my legs. Yes, I'd read all the ""legroom"" complaints. But seriously? How bad could it really be? Bad. I was numb from the knees down by the time the 80 lined up for its approach to Hagerstown. Once the feeling returned I immediately went online and shelled out a few extra bucks for a return flight emergency exit seat with tons of sprawling room. Which also put me up front (in my very own row!), directly across from the jump seats used by the flight attendants. Who freaked out when I told them about the aborted SFB departure. Comforting.

The seats and tray tables are absolutely disgusting on all airplanes, but definitely the most dirty on Air Canada. The entertainment system was not working on two different flights. The landings and take-offs have been TERRIBLE on every single flight with Air Canada. It seems like all pilots go to Air Canada to train before they move on to other airlines. Their checked baggage fees are also the most expensive. 3 of our flights have been delayed, which usually doesn't bother me because I just assume that's going to be the case, but it really bothered me that they had all of us board the plane and then made us sit on the plane for 2.5 hours for an international flight while they did a routine check of the plane! If it's routine, then they should know that it needs to be done. If they need to delay the flight for a check, then do it before the passengers get on so that the passengers can still move around the airport and use airport facilities. International flights are long enough. Adding 2.5 hours to the sitting is pretty bad when we could have been having dinner in the airport. Also, they keep it way too cold.

They were dealing with full flights on both of my recent trips, they were dealing with a different plane being delivered to the gate so the seat configurations didn’t match and they managed to get everyone reassigned quickly and orderly. They even upgraded me from extra legroom to Mint because my seat no longer existed on the new plane. They were dealing with lots of elderly people, someone in a wrong seat. Someone who had not bought a ticket for their baby and was trying to put them in a car seat. Dogs. And then I for the first time in my life, left my tote bag under the seat in front of me and superb flight attendants Michael and Anthony went back for it. I saw these gentlemen help so many elderly passengers on the plane with kindness and respect. I truly wish Jet Blue flew everywhere I need to go!",JetBlue,trip_advisor,"['Responsiveness', 'Assurance']" 13402,This was an overnight flight.,"The plane was an Airbus A380 I believe. The legroom was very adequate, we did not feel cramped. The flight was 7 hours. The seats had tabs that supported you head if you wanted to sleep. The food was better than we expected. We were very pleased with delta and their service on this flight.",Delta,trip_advisor,['Tangibles'] 13403,Poor website layout and customer service.,"I apparently booked a flight accidentally with dates that were clearly non-sensical from the week long flight I was trying to book. Trying to contact them by phone to cancel it was met with long wait times and then when I did finally get through the rep was very difficult to understand with their heavy accent. Rather than let me cancel, I was charged an almost $300 penalty and the remaining $2300 was turned into a voucher rather than a refund! Buyer beware! By the way, tell your friends too as consequences are the only way to effect change. Hello Delta…😁",Allegiant,trip_advisor,['Responsiveness'] 13404,No help,Our flight was cancelled no emails to tell us this. Absolutely no help in getting us another flight home and they really couldn’t care less. Just offered us a voucher. Shocking treatment from a company we would have recommend but we will never fly with them again.,Emirates,trip_advisor,['Responsiveness'] 13405,Worst Business Class in all aspects,All I can say is don't fly with them unless you absolutely have no other choice. Was about 15 in Business class and they ran out of meals from the Business class menu and gave us economy class meals which were inedible! No apologies ever received from Air Canada Customer Service about this.,AirCanada,trip_advisor,['Assurance'] 13406,Unconscionable and Irresponsible!,"During these times the airline industry, like many others is experiencing labor shortages, burned out employees, cutbacks, and delays. If you are a reasonable person who travels by air, you can't be surprised when things aren't going smoothly. However, my experience with this flight was absolutely horrible. The flight was continually being delayed which yes, I understand. Boarding finally took place at approximately 3:20 as the plane was scheduled to ultimately take off around 3:44. Boarding had been completed. It was a very FULL flight. Apparently, the ground crew was still trying to get the bags loaded on the plane so further delays ensued. We sat until approximately 4:30 in a closed plane with little to no air circulation and again I emphasize a CHOCK FULL FLIGHT. All this as a PANDEMIC is still happening !!!!! Why air cannot be pumped into the plane in these circumstances is a concern! If that is not possible, there should be at least some type of plan B for circumstances like this while the country is still experiencing pandemic like conditions. It was IRRESPONSIBLE, UNCONSCIONABLE AND HORRIBLE! Southwest should be compensating every single person on that flight. Often, the captain will stand at the exit as passengers disembark. There was no captain or pilot to be seen because if there had been, he/she would have heard about my dissatisfaction and concern! As of now, I am not sure I will be choosing Southwest as my airline of choice.",SouthWest,trip_advisor,"['Responsiveness', 'Assurance']" 13407,Zero information on massive flight delay and weather is perfect at both ends,So we are sitting at the airport for over 6 hours with zero information from Jet Blue as to why the incoming flight is 6 hours late and we are waiting to see if crew can even go back tonight. I must say my experience with United you are at least given updates and information. Here nothing. Oh. And you want to speak to someone o. The phone. A 97 minute wait. This is beyond horrible service. jetBlue will have a hard time ever gaining our business again.,JetBlue,trip_advisor,['Responsiveness'] 13408,Economy plus,Being seasoned at the travel gig I think we have finally figured it out to fit our needs and budget. We are a couple so have taken to booking three economy seats for the 2 of us. Yes a bit more expensive nut not anything like premium economy. It makes the journey much less cramped. There is no need to get things from the overhead bin and we leave home with a bag of almonds and a bag of manderines. These mean we have refreshments when we need them and anything left on arrival can be dumped in the bio bins. We also take empty sealable coffee mugs and once past liquid inspections fill up at a McDonalds and have a hot beverage without having to wait for inflight service. When inflight beverages are served we have safe non polluting containers for the beverages on offer. If everyone did this 1000 plastic cups could be saved per flight. Many thanks to AC staff for priority loading and disability assistance. You only have to ask for assistance. It is so appreciated. There were a few problems but all were resolved with smiles.

Aircraft was an ill-maintained old one: Seats were threadbare/hard, onboard entertainment was not easily operable or was not working as it should have been. Service to put succinctly not bad, comparing to what used to be. A nice-sounding MENU was given which was not as good as it used to be. Certain items on the menu like Fresh fruit Cuts/ Cheese Board and port wine to accompany were simply not offered. Giving away a bar of packed chocolate was the best the crew could achieve. It would suffice to say that good enough for an upgraded filght only.

Every other airline was leaving out even the one going to the same destination which is Atlanta but there's wasn't canceled so what you mean do to air traffic control.

Arrived at the airport 1.5 hours prior to my flight. Printed my boarding pass at the airport and applied my baggage tags. Walked to the ticket counter and was advised that my seats that I paid for were sold to another couple. I was denied access to my seats and was told that I needed to pay an extra $100. For a flight on the following day. I needed to be at work in the morning so my wife and myself rented a vehicle and drove 16 hours to our home. When asked for a refund, I was told that my money was forfeited to the airline. Spirit Airlines are engaging in fraud and theft.

If you are traveling from other parts of Peru, connecting through Lima on your way home, be aware that if you are delayed, the JetBlue desk at Lima closes at 11:00 p.m. So if you're late or miss your evening flight, you're out of luck! There is typically also only one flight per day from Lima to FLL and vice versa. So you'll be spending another full 24 hours plus hotel room in Lima, unless you want to spring for a ticket on another airline (which is what we did - the 2:00 a.m. Delta flight from Lima to FLL). Nothing against JetBlue, but we wouldn't go with this option again because of lack of choices when faced with a delay that was out of our control (and we allowed ourselves a 3-hour stopover in Lima, so not like we were cutting it close when booking!)",JetBlue,trip_advisor,['Responsiveness'] 13421,"united will lies on your face, with no respect for custumers","our original flight was from the 25 dec to 14 january , they rebook our flight from till dec 30 to the 14, ruin the entire vacation, the flight was over sold, they were telling costumers there was something wrong with the seat and there were trying to get him a better one meanwhile they was giving the same seat to another costumer bad way to treat costumers",United,trip_advisor,['Responsiveness'] 13422,The flight to fort walton was smooth!,Had problems with return flight. lines were too long for only 2 lines of security.Departing flight went well.,Allegiant,trip_advisor,['Responsiveness'] 13423,Dubious request of credit card copy (both sides),I had 51 flights this year but was never asked before to send a copy of both sides of my credit card,Avianca,trip_advisor,['NA'] 13424,A mess on boarding,"I never saw such a boarding mess as I experienced while boarding flight UA287 in San Diego. I understand that Coved 19 restriction are going down, but on May 1 they still had to be followed. With a doctoral degree in Bio-Med Eng I understand quite well the purpose of those restrictions. I also understand low risk of contamination due to HEPA filters. But what about boarding. Should it be overlooked by the airline or police? When the boarding started everybody pushed forward. No group numbers were followed at all. Many passengers had significantly oversized carry oo luggage, and a geriatric US crew tried to push those items whenever they could. All entrance at the craft was jammed, and people quizzed to each other. I got a full body rub by a flight attendant who desperately tried to force a huge object to overhead compartment. I asked her to keep a distance from me, and she got very upset at me. When finally all commotion was over and I took my sit I was approached by other flight attendant, presumably the supervisor, asking me if I'm not satisfied I can rebook the flight. Thanks, but after all the worst was over, I didn't see a reason for that. Similar mess was on my second US connecting flight 1020 from Houston. This time I board the last to prevent unneeded close body contacts. When I asked why they don't keep any order, I was told ""we are no police"". In my opinion if US can't meet Coved 19 protocol they shouldn't operate. It was completely different on my return flight (May 15). In Cozumel Mx. the Mexican UA staff did really a good job.
