The entertainment and wifi mostly didn't work on this flight.

Terrible entertainment system - kept freezing and audio kept cutting out. Snacks were mediocre at best for a 5 hour flight.

The check in and bag drop off for Sky Priority members is slow. The Clear security was also slow - a TSA issue.

I am still upset that my bag was lost on a recent trip to Rome ; we were inconvenienced and out €150 Euros ; delta has refused to reimburse us

I am very bothered by the events today. I can't believe the flight attendants allowed someone to take my seat and made me move. It was embarrassing. I was in the right. The lady just didn't want move. I can't believe delta would allow this to stand and disrespect my rights as a passenger. The lady complained about her leg and that she couldn't move. Firstly somehow she was able to make it to row 24. Not sure how much her leg could have hurt. Secondly, I'm in plenty of pain myself. I just finished chemotherapy a several weeks ago. My body is constantly sore. Yet deltas flight attendants didn't appropriately protect my rights. In the end they found me a seat on the plane but I want to understand how delta can operate this way. They in essence allowed a bully to get their way.

Good flights. On time. They had a gluten free snack option which was nice

Take this flight once or twice a month. Just don’t cut it from the schedule.

737-800 in first class was pretty dumpy. Seat had an uncomfortable angle, storage under the seat was blocked so even my very modest backpack didn't fit, power outlet was flaky. Weird tiny seat pockets that couldn't hold a gallon ziploc bag, emesis bag missing, etc. etc. No in-flight service due to turbulence. Crew was excellent, boarding was smooth despite a full flight.

Food from the flight from Atlanta to Santiago was very poor..

Flight was delayed due to weather. Crew did a nice job of making us comfortable. No complain complaints.

Turbulent taking off & landing to Dulles from Raleigh. Flight from Dulles to Tokyo very good!!

Very nice and clean plane. Transit time between flights was tight though

Mostly the experience was good except for the flight changes made by UA which meant longer layover in DC

Terrible. First of all we were delayed 4 3/4 hours departing Honolulu. As we had to leave our condo and the rental car had to be returned we had to go to the airport. Even though we had a business class boarding pass to Washington, since we did not have business class to Montreal we could not access the lounge without paying a $59 fee each. This does not make sense to us. Since we could not meet our original connection United booked us to Montreal via New York LaGuardia on Air Canada. In Washington a further delay got us into LaGuardia too late to make our connection to Montreal so we were booked on another Air Canada flight 3 hours later. We were originally scheduled to arrive in Montreal at 10:40 and arrived at 19:55. A totally exhausting day, United did not offer a meal voucher or any type of compensation. Air Canada did give us a digital meal voucher. The food in United business class is poor among all meals offered. The pods look nice but are not that confortable. Overall would not fly on United again.

Change cabin crew assisting business class. Not taking care, ignoring requests and calls. Never had such an experience in business class.

United left one of our bags back in SFO but that’s not my real complaint. The complaint is how it all went down. So we checked in the day before online and were told we could use the quick drop for luggage. So the next day I used baggage quick drop curbside at SFO. The agent mistakenly didn't tag my bag as he put my bag on the conveyor belt untagged. We immediately alerted him he had not tagged the bag. I walked with him to the baggage service office to find my bag and tag it. We waited outside the office for 10 mins. He came out and said everything was ok and the bag was going to be tagged and on my flight. We received a text that one of our bags was on the flight but the other was not. I alerted my first class flight attendant immediately upon boarding the flight. She was helpful and said she’d get it sorted out right away. She called over the gate agent. The gate agent used my bag number and looked over information on her device. She said my bag was on the flight. The flight attendant was standing with her, looking at the device, and also said “yep it’s on the flight”. During the flight the flight attendant made reference to how reassuring it must feel knowing the bag was on the flight. Upon arriving to IAD we received a text that my bag was not on my flight. The text said my bag would arrive to my final destination LIS 24 hrs late. I understand that mistakes happen. I was totally ok with my bag mistakenly not getting tagged at the quick drop. I was fine with walking down to baggage services to tag my bag. But, what I am not ok with is that the United staff said they fixed the mistake two different times, assuring me twice that my bag would be/was on the plane…and it wasn’t. I expected better attention by the employees, for them to do what they said they were going to do. We also spent extra money to upgrade our seats to first class, including the entire return leg from Lisbon to San Francisco because we wanted a smoother and more relaxing travel experience. Our money was not well spent. We will not be using United for travel going forward.

The flight was delayed, it took longer than anticipated because of weather, and they broke my luggage.

Horrifying! And I am almost 2 million miles with United. Late by 3 1/2 hours. Worst: after two hours on the plane waiting, they decided that one of the tires had been damaged and then decided to change it. Another hour and a half to change the tire!!!!! NO EXCUSE FOR THIS. The crew didn't even offer a glass of water until we had been on the plane for FIVE hours. This is the worst airline in the world. I'm simply stuck because they fly on the only routes I need.

Gate got changed about 4 times. Very confusing and very crowded. If you don’t have wifi to help get updates, you can be in deep trouble.

Attendants zipped through cabin so fast hardly anyone got the water they told us we could have in the short flight. Nothing else was offered.

It was nobody’s fault - but the plane came 4-hrs late and we were updated randomly in 20-30 mins increments which left us hostage to sit and wait expectantly. It was very long and got very late. Our plane didn’t land until nearly 1 am! Also the toilet wasn’t working. The hosts were nice enough but were clearly “about to pass out” as one told me. Lastly, there was no snack or even time for it. Just a bad experience overall.

Would have thought that they would gas up plane before everyone got on board

The boarding crew was incredibly helpful getting me on an earlier flight

Great experience. Flight boarded easily. Departed early. Smooth flight. Great arrival in DC--almost no taxing! Almost direct to gate from runway. Crew was terrific. Same cookies and beverages in main cabin. I did not use the entertainment system on this flight.

The flights were terribly delayed and then cancelled which forced us booking another night at the hotel. Very poor management from American Airlines

Flight delayed on both ends - have a gate ready at DCA, don't make us sit for 30min after being late to take off as well.

AA can't control the weather. But the airplane was hot and stuffy while stuck on the runway with a broken entertainment system.

very bare bones flight no entertainment screen, download shows prior to boarding to watch on phone or tablet.

It was good. It’s been a long time since my wife and I fly any where and things have changed. Our trip was to see our new grandson. We fly economy and that was not good for my bad back. It was a quick flight but uncomfortable.

Service in first class no longer exists on American Airlines .
