Plane left an hour late due to flight staffing problems. Only a 45 min flight, but it took 3 hours as a result, which left a lot of people disgruntled. No excuses. No recompense.
Probably the worst 1st Class I have ever experienced. Sam, our flight attendant, was excellent. Other than that, everything from the Alaska Longe experience to the buggy app to the uncomfortable flight and uncommunicative agents were poor. The agent who booked us in forgot to mark TSA PreCheck on our boarding passes and we had to go back to get this done. They were a cut below every other airline we have experienced in just about every area.
We had TSA pre check and paid to get it! They told us we would not have to do many of the things such as take your shoes off which I had to do! I’m 78 years old with NO criminal record and. they also patted my ankles down, Why? We boarded the plane in an orderly fashion only to sit there while they perform repairs to the lavatory. Why didn’t they do that before we boarded? I also paid extra to have more room because of my age but that was not what I had hoped for. I know you can’t control who sit in what seat but the guy next to me was bigger than average and took up part of my space.
I was able to upgrade to first class, which was great. Food and drinks were underwhelming compared to other first class flights I have taken.
I purchased a flight to Hawaii, changing planes in San Diego. My flight change location was later changed to Seattle then on to Kona, adding hours to my already long flight. Also, my flight home was run through Portland rather than through San Diego, once again, adding hours to my flight. At 81 years old I don’t want hours robbed from me.
I flew from San Francisco to Honolulu on Hawaiian Airlines. The flight was operated by Alaska Airlines. Everything was fantastic. On the return flight from Honolulu to San Francisco, boarding was chaotic. They called each boarding group 1 through 6 very quickly, and everyone just ran and got in a very long line. There was no enforcement of boarding groups. Carry-on rules were not followed, and by the time I boarded the plane, there was barely any overhead space. I was boarding group 4. The crew was very professional, and the Hawaiian Airlines terminal in Honolulu was beautiful. I wish the rest of Honolulu Airport looked like the Hawaiian Airlines Terminal.
Rated meals and entertainment poor because we didn’t have any.
Paid additional for seat upgrade, but got same seat as no upgrade.
As expected cyst service up front was very good we needed assistance at the gates and they were very accommodating
Always delayed, inadequate availability of room for baggage but the crew were good & approachable.
Boarding is, as it always is… horrible. Gate lice. Slow moving zones. Too many people with carry ons
I loved having a most black flight crew during Black History Month; rather by design or accident I appreciated the representation. ❤️
This was the second flight this week with flight attendant Marcus I’m not sure if his last name is Lane or Lang but this guy is awesome. He funny, attentive and his service is 5 stars. Marcus makes business travel more enjoyable !
Although the flight left late, we arrived early. It was one of the quickest boarding and off boarding experiences I’ve had. It was kind of annoying the only drinks they had were water, coffee, and tea. The flight was very smooth, temperature was just right, and flight attendants were friendly.
Lower number on this flight so spaced out passengers. Able to enjoy more room to relax during flight. It was lovely.
Kind staff. Snacks are small but that’s the new normal.
The young man who was our flight attendant in first class was lazy and did not do his job well at all. Never offered drinks upon boarding - actually I take that back... said "are you okay with water" as if I do not want to get you anything else, only passed the snacks around once, got my drink order wrong and then never offered a second round of drinks. He was the worst I have ever seen on Delta and we fly a lot.
Great service. Great staff. Boarding was a little slow, but I think there was a service dog slowing things down.
Flight left early and arrived early. the whole trip was excellent.
Seats were really tight and the seat belts did not give enough slack.
1. Was sorry my flight was delayed. 2. On my flight out the cabin crew were very caring:, going the extra mile in many ways. Today's crew got the job done efficiently but it didn't seem like the welcoming Hawaii Air experience. 3. Nice to have in-air food. It was pretty good, not special 4. Assistance at check-in was super. Someone came to help me at the console immediately and set up my pre-boarding status. She was truly kind and helpful.
Boarding was a nightmare. Almost everyone was on group 4 and there was no line people crowded the check in and made things more chaotic than they needed to be.
A330-200 is very comfortable - lavatory roomier then Narrow Body jets.
The flight crew did what they could to make things as comfortable as possible.
The flight crew made the trip pleasant considering they had to work in conditions similar to a sardine can.
It would have been better if the airlines would of have the gate ready to go instead of waiting 30 minutes for the other airplane to take off
Everything for a 9:30 hour flight was fine. Seats are not very large, but worked. You should get up 2 or 3 times during that duration flight for your legs sake. Food needed more Protein meats for me. I have to check on a diabetic meal in future. I don't do sugar, so very little too eat. Flight was cheap so I am willing to look over other amenities. Everything else was great
Friendly crew. One seat didn’t have a window and another no foot rest.
Free WiFi was much appreciated. The only choice for food being a pepperoni sandwich was disappointing.
Food can be more healthy instead of processed. Crew was friendly and courteous. Our flight time changed so they gave us extra comfort seats which was very nice.
I don’t understand the purpose of the orange “priority” tag on my bag. This tagged, my bag is last or near to the last bag to come down the carousel at IAH.
The tv monitor in front of my seat was not responding. The flight crew reset it and it still didn’t work.
The agents was very rude and they charged me $50 for a carry-on bag saying that it was too big and then I saw someone going on a plane with the same size bag as me
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.
Plenty of room for me and the cat in Premium Economy. Seat was comfortable. Boarding was a breeze. The lady at the special check-in desk was great, super helpful and professional.
For the most part united was a good experience, how ever when they came by with the snacks and water, they completely passed by my wife and I. As we were in separate rows. On a 5 hr flight we were not offered water
Fantastic crew. Flight was delayed at last minute but we were given updates every 20 minutes and the crew was so friendly and considerate. I miss the touch screens on the back of the seats, wish they would bring that back though.
Our seats were all the way in back of the plane,
Food choices were very limited. Taste of the dishes was average.
Maybe add a seat trade app for flyers that didn’t get seats together
The boarding experience was good; $20 for wifi per flight is uncompetitive compared to Delta, Southwest, and others, and puts American lower on my list given similar pricing.
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.
Delays on all NY flights. There was no communication on why but they didn’t say it was weather. Other carriers were not delayed.
The flights were terribly delayed and then cancelled which forced us booking another night at the hotel. Very poor management from American Airlines
Extraordinary service in business class, and very good breakfast and snacks. A really lovely flight.
I flew out of Reagan National. My flight was delayed, delayed, delayed, and then canceled ...THREE TIMES over TWO DAYS. Staff were seemingly not empowered to provide information on why the flights were screwed up. A real nightmare.
They cancelled our flight without warning OR a refund. Never doing business with American Airlines again! This is the second AA booked trip in a row that we've had challenges with.
Crew was late. Baggage was late. 2hs inside the plane waiting fro de-icing and traffic. A 3:30hs flight ended up being almost 6hs inside the airplane.
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.
The seats were crammed and the guy in front of me wouldn't stop reclining. If AA is cramming extra rows in, they need to take away the reclining in coach. My knees were smashed for 4 1/2 hours and I was very close to confronting the passenger in front of me.
