Airline reviews

Very long delay but we just made the connection. The requested wheel chairs were not there so I had to assist/carry BOTH of my parents to the gate while carrying their bags so we could make the connection. The plane had no entertainment system and NO WIFI, legroom zero. Restrooms on ALL of flights were dirty and one restroom did not even work properly. I was surprised to see COPA like this since my flight with them in 2013 was incredible, the seats were amazing and the food options were spectacular. Of course, I see this kind of service on many airlines now, with services and hospitality at an all time low. The worse part of the trip was seeing my 90 year old parents go through hell on these flights and having to try and rush to a gate to make the next flight. Never again

Crew were all excellent. Wheel chair access for my parents was very good, although it took some time. Plane was ok but entertainment system did not work. NO WIFI on plane so could not get other things done while flying or listen to my Apple Music on my iPhone.

I like that they served a mail, I’m not sure about the in-flight entertainment. I didn’t really check. staff helped me with my luggage. Smooth boarding smooth takeoff smooth flight

I was supposed to have a lay flat seat but they switched planes and there was only a chair

Copa delayed the fight three times. We ended up flying about 24 hours after the original time.

Food was not good, no options for vegetarian or gluten free

This airline doesn’t five and dime you for everything. I do think that a checked bag should be included in every fare.

The seats had plenty of leg room and the staff were very nice.

Captain and Crew were excellent. The Boeing 737-800 was showing its age. In flight entertainment system was sluggish and my Business Class seat on the outbound flight had some mechanical issues. Only real problem was the location of the Gate in Panama PTY. It was a 40 minute hike from Security to the Gate. There should have been some sort of warning about the distance.

This was my first time flying Copa but I'll definitely be back! Great service, professional agents, and delicious food for a fair price. Thanks for a great trip!

Very little leg room, none of the seats reclined, all food was $4 per item or more

At 15 mins after takeoff captain inform plane needs to return to Medellin because a technical situation. The change flight to next day directly to Puerto Rico. They'll pay for hotel (a specific one), dinner, next day breakfast and transfers from and to airport. But when get to the hotel, hotel administration informs they don't have rooms available and that they did not confirm 'anything' to the airline. We wait until night, and nothing happens. My group of four stay in a hotel nearby and pay for it. Next day during check-in we explain to de counter employees all details and they call and make 'some things' and pay us hotel and dinner expenses. This employees are super heroes for us. Airline keeps us waiting for hours to resolve the situation. They could tell us, right away, that we select any hotel, pay for it and bring receipts next morning.

Everything was good. But this airline doesn't give ANY food. You have to pay for everything, including water.

I had a 7 hour flight from New York JFK to San Jose Costa Rica. There was no in seat entertainment, no seat recline and poor leg room. Nor did Avianca hand out water. Extremly dissapointed. Had I known this before i purchased my ticket. I would have never booked. Buyer beware!

Sería bueno informar que el vuelo es de bajo costo y saber que hay que pagar a bordo para conseguir algo de comida.

First of all, we bought a non-stop trip and in writing it indicated a direct flight to Miami. We did not only stopped in Nicaragua, but were force to disembark and were processed again through security as delinquents just to get back to the same plane. We're American citizens and Nicaragua is a communist country and an enemy of the US. We were therefore kidnapped by illegally and unnecessarily disembarked. We were overcharged $190 for the luggage that went into the cargo area, though we had already paid for a round trip. We didn't buy food on the way back, because you charge even for coffee, imagine if we had asked for water. No internet. We didn't watch entertainment.

We have to pay extra to check in this have to be free

The worst experience I could have. They are not efficient

Half of the computers to print bags labels weren't working Not enough people to check bags I missed my flight

Seats don't recline. Took my water away at the gate, the one I got AFTER the security check. Said "no liquids", while others were carrying duty free without problems. Made me buy water on the plane for $3.

COP 7,000 for a cup of mediocre coffee. I thought I was on Spirit Airlines for a minute. Otherwise the flight was fine. Nothing exceptional to report.

Worst airline , charge for everything even for water, seat space is very bad

Felt very cramped in the back of plane. There was an hour delay for take off sitting on the runway, but we did arrive on time. They charge $120 for carry on bag and backpack at the airport its ridiculous.

Worst in 25 years. A 10 hours flight from Buenos Aires to Costa Rica and no free food! Then the food available for purchase was sold out in 5 minutes. I was travelling with two kids and wasn't ready to keep them happy with chips and cookies for such a long time. Avianca doesn't make sure that minors sit next to an adult so I was forced to pay 65 USD for each seat in a so called premium seat whic is exactly the same as the economy free seats. Never again with Avianca.

Terrible. Flight was delayed without explanation, airplane was in poor condition (old, dirty) and crew was not in a good mood.

I was shocked flying to El Salvador that they only give you water. Everything else you have to pay for. There is no wifi or entertainment and it’s an international flight. At least back in the day they had tvs on the plane and everyone watched the same movie. Also seats do not recline, even comfort or plus.

I did not like anything, first time I use company and for sure it will be the last time, they charge for simple operations that any other average airline wouldn't charge.

i was charged $140.00usd for my backpack the only luggage i had was my backpack

The good thing is the flight was on time and the crew was really nice. They can work better the arriving with staff

More than 3 hours of delay and not even a snack was given.
