Excellent experience. WiFi worked on this leg of My trip
Excellent experience. WiFi worked on this leg of My trip
Flight was great, but golf bag never made it until later in the day. Even though I had a nonstop flight it was placed on a different one. They made it right with flight credits and I was able to get it the same day.
Pretty standard flight. We left late, but arrived early. The wifi entertainment is always nice. The free snacks and beverages are simple, but appreciated. I'm tall and the seats are an issue. I can deal with a short flight, but any longer, I have to find another airline where I know beforehand I have extra legroom.
Chairs are not reclinable. Not ear phones for sale. Seats should be assigned to avoid confrontations. Flight attendants were AMAZING.
The flight attendant was proactive in helping with placing carry on in overhead bins. This was the first time I had ever been offered help without asking or obviously struggling. Many on the flight were older people like myself and vertically challenged. I would hope this would be the norm on all flights.
The flight was promptly on schedule and Southwest delivered everything they promised. No excuses for any shortfalls just 100% ownership of their responsibilities and business. The boarding and seating policy is a complete shambles. What started out as a great idea when Southwest first hit the market has been turned into a disaster due to the lack of integrity in many of the people who fly Southwest and take advantage of Southwest generosity at the expense of their fellow passengers.
The actual flight was great! The 3 hour delay not so much.
Flight was canceled at 11:50am on my husband’s birthday as if they didn’t have all day to still try to go.
With early bird check in, I might start flying southwest again.
Very helpful, convenient, nice crew members, no extra fees, helped us saving 4 hrs of travel by booking is on an earlier flight
boarding was uneventful. Snack was pathetic. A tiny fruit bar. Entertainment was limited to just select movies on your own tablet or phone. No live TV. I recently flew Jetblue and they had unlimited snacks and live satellite TV the entire flight. My seat was an exit seat, 20A. It was super uncomfortable. It felt cramped and the middle seat was taken up by a large woman who pushed into my shoulder and arm. Horrible flight.
Your seats in the last 5 rows are terrible. My knees were jammed into the seat in front of me and the lady sitting there decided to recline it. Jammed my knees bad. I don’t know if I’ll fly United again.
Delayed over an hour due to paperwork not being filed correctly. Forced to change planes.
The flight attendant was very kind and offered my son a snack for free.
The plane was delayed ~ 40 minutes. Communication could have been better. The entertainment was poor. We were not offered headsets by the flight attendants. The arm rest pad did not work properly, thus, I could not select what I wanted to watch.
Like all other airlines United makes you pay for everything. Like everyone, you have to pay for checking in a bag on top of your already expensive ticket. Hence no one does it and we all show up with our luggage at boarding which forces the company to push people to drop their luggage as there is no space. Well, that delays the boarding process a d generates frustrated passengers who lashes out on the poor crew. Please go back to the simple past: charge my original ticket 30 dollars more and make one bag check in included (even in basic economy). I won't even see the difference on price but will definitely notice the beauty of having the chance to ship my luggage !
No water on the toilets, dirty sits. 4 hours delayed departure.
My window shade didn’t work. So I missed coming into my city. ☹️
Flight was delayed in the gate by 5 hours and ultimately cancelled- rebooking service by United agents was terrible
The Wi-Fi was unavailable on this flight for some reason.
The flight was delayed and the announcements were hard to hear, but the crew was great
Seamless boarding process, flight was early, crew and passengers nice. Crew was professional as well. Seats are super thing but reasonably comfortable for a 2-3 hrs flight. No on board entertainment, except maybe for paid internet. No water, no snacks. I feel all airlines should offer free water. I didn’t care paying for it, however water is free everywhere in the US and it almost like a basic human right in a civilized society.
The flight landed with a delay and we had to wait almost an hour to be off boarded. So typical of spirit.
I fly almost weekly & Spirit is well worth it & Hands-down, my favorite! Out of all the airlines I fly, I often find that spirit has the cleanest planes & the most well taken care of, typically, I will look up the aircraft registration and often the planes are less than seven years old. Two weeks ago I flew on a Jet that was less than a month old. The crew are often times the most friendly in the air. For this particular flight, I had a very stressful day and was not anticipating a very wonderful flight due to the passing hurricane. We had a half hour delay once boarded due to the weather and changing flight patterns, however, as soon as we turned for the runway, the pilot battling a strong crosswind quickly throttled up and in matter of moments, we had the most peaceful flight. I think I’ve ever taken! And we were still 6 minutes early!!! The personality of the crew was wonderful, typically, for this route the passengers are a little less than desirable but they are professional & very accommodating. Because of the best prices spirit often gets jabbed, but the reality is why pay for anything you don’t need. And you certainly are not sacrificing service!
We had a 40 mins delay, but the pilot was good about keeping up informed. No food/snacks or drinks when u in the air-they have to be purchased. They charge for every single thing .
particularly nothing to like plane just turned to be a hmm flying bus, yet in buses from another country at least drink and snack are free ... and seat could be just a bit more ..adjustable? ok ok i know i am asking for too much but ..dreaming is not forbidden yet
Crew was Awesome, especially flight attendant Blake from Fort Lauderdale! Passengers onboard were unfortunately unruly & disrespectful.
It would’ve been better if you didn’t cancel my flight and I couldn’t find another flight within 200 miles so I had to go down to Baltimore to get on a flight.
Would have liked there to be a flight crew available so we could fly. None available so they delayed the departure by 10 hour!
Once again, my flight was delayed. I believe it’s the third time I had a delayed flight with spirit airlines… Very unpleasant.
The flight was VERY, VERY hot and the blowers weren't cooling it off...don't know what the problem was, but.....otherwise it was fine.
My flight from Avianca was 45 minutes late and it's very complicated to recheck in in ...also I have to say the silver desk folks were neither efficient nor helpful...so I missed my connecting flight. I actually got there before tge flight left but they refused to let me on....and gave me no vouchers for hotel etc
The cancelled our flight 3 times and we never made it to our destination. Every single airplane had a maintenance problem. Never fly this airline
9 hrs wait in airport then flt redirected to airport an hour away from our booked airport. Then at 8:00pm flight Cancelled. Silver supposed to book us on American the next day. Booked my husband but not me. Cost me Ubers, hotel, meals, new ticket and 1 hour taxi Cuz no flights to our home airport. Absolute disaster. Silver staff had no idea what was going on or what to do. Never Again Silver
Nothing about this flight was good. They are always cancelling or grossly delayed. We were delayed for 45 minutes for no apparent reason with no explanation or anything we could see and I missed my connection to Durham NC. I was on my way to my best friends memorial and funeral. Now I'll missed them both!!
Total disaster! The easiest flight was kept delayed till … cancelled! And before official announcement of the flight cancellation I was offered to join ongoing boarding to FLL so I had to change all my traveling plans, have lost my car reservation and a payed spot at the meeting I was going for to begin with! I had to no show to my flight back, because it was from different airport again!
The worst experience we had traveling. The worst experience we have had traveling. The service is lousy, I will NEVER choose this airline again.
Never in time always late, even on arrival gate not ready so waited on tarmac another 45 min
Flight canceled 11 hours after being delayed. Miss annual family vacation because of this
This was a short flight so food was not offered. The stewardess was great at giving water out. The baggage check at the airport was hideous. One person was untrained and had asked a question. The other two people were just dealing. Someone could have worked the line and said you must have a luggage tag and you must have confirmation. We waited for some people at the counter for 20 minutes because they couldn't find their reservation or they were missing their luggage tags. We were in line an hour and 20 minutes had to run to her gate just to find out our flight was delayed 40 minutes. The silver air website never updated with status changes on the phone. Horribly irresponsible flight company.
