Multiple delays and gate changes. Arrived at final destination 6 hours late. All rental cars had been taken.

Employees were kind and funny, as always! Flight was late but no announcements were made for people with tight connections to help them transition quickly. No service due to turbulence.

It was 2 hours 45 minutes late, for no apparently clear reason.

I recently flew Southwest from San Jose to Honolulu. I was very impressed with the flight crew, especially the flight attendant in charge of the front of the plane. She came through the aisle at least five times for drinks and water, and two times for snacks. I have not seen such service since I flew first class. Also, for the first time, they gave us the correct baggage claim number, and the luggage came out quickly. I can't wait for Southwest to have assigned seating! I absolutely hate the Cattle Call boarding procedure and the mad dash to get seats and overhead bins. However, the boarding was efficient.

Crew was great flight was great baggage claim was a failure. It took over 1 hour for bags to arrive. Poor communication poor effort when I spoke to the supervisor about the delay

Much better than the.last. flight on SW on Thanksgiving day

Fine, but how to board on SW versus othrr airlines, is just lame. Goood staff though and all was solid otherwise.

The movies using Southwest WiFi kept pausing and I had to restart multiple times.

It went well. Plane wasn't full. Will be great when assigned seating is in place

Everything was great except the food. The pretzels are really crappy.

Received an email the night before showing that there would be seatback entertainment on our flight. We get on and there was no seatback entertainment. And then it was a scramble to try to set up the iPads for the kids before takeoff so they could watch something for the four hour flight.

The aircrew was solid, the flight was chill, I had no issues. The gate agent was not the best. I was trying to use a military bag upgrade to move my bag from under the seat to the overhead bins and he told me there’s no overhead bins on the plane, argued with me why booking put a military member in basic economy (I don’t really understand this) and made it an issue to even try to help me stating I’d have to call reservations to get a bag upgrade. When every other agent with United can add it at the gate, this man couldn’t be bothered.

Short flight - no food understandable. Flight was delayed for over an hour. Overall, it was good.

Boarding always seems a bit chaotic. Seat spacing could leave more for leg room.

First class felt like economy, seats were horrible, food was horrible, staff inattentive

EVen warmer in the plane it think it was 24+ degrees

Good flight. On time. Boarding and seating was easy. Crew were really friendly, yet professional. Bathroom (by cockpit) was small but serviceable. Some the seats were showing some notable wear & tear, but were comfy. Very happy UA customer. TY! 🤛🏽💗

Wish movie and music choices changed more often. Mostly same from a month or two ago when I last flew.

Overall, it was a good experience. Boarding was good and there was plenty of overhead bin space for everyone’s carryons (even when we boarded toward the end). Only improvement would be to offer trash service more regularly.

We arrived early and finally made it to our gate almost an hour after.

I had a very unpleasant encounter with one man from customer service: he was extremely rude and miserable. And his condition was reflected on his decision to send me to the worst airport hotel and get an awful flight connection. My hotel shuttle had never arrived and I had to book another hotel. People served by other representatives got a much better treatment and deal.

AA is always pretty solid. Was on time all the way around today so can’t complain!

Ok. Got us there safely and a bit early. Need food available on this long flight. Almost 3 hours.

Flight was delayed by 11 hours. Flight agent finally had to rebook us, but did not rebook fully correctly. We had to pay out of pocket to get to the hotel they booked us and couldn’t check in the next day online because the next day’s agent said they didn’t complete the process the night before.

Flight was late and TSA had shut down so (almost) no passengers could get to the gate. American failed to inform TSA to stay open! Needed to get back home so we had to rent a car & drive 13 hours all through the night. It was bad.

Very mediocre greeting as we boarded, and the lead flight attendant accent was almost unrecognizable. He joked around a lot, while trying to give the safety demonstration, but did not succeed. My wife’s row was completely missed for beverages and the lead flight attendant didn’t even know that our row was Main cabin and able to have beverages at no charge. We are platinum, 2,000,000 miles on American Airlines and this was not a stellar crew.

Had to go get beer myself from attendants in the back of the aircraft

AA had a nationwide tech glitch today and after two connections snd hours of delay, I arrived 7 hours late to my destination

It would have been better if I could have had my flight on time. It was delayed for 5 hours. Caused me to not be able to fulfill my promise to my granddaughters. Other than that it was a good trip.

Delayed due to no crew. On a major holiday travel day.
