Average. Newark is a United Hub, yet a flight that is early somehow ends up getting late to the gate. Newark ATC needs help badly.
Most disapointing experience. We were rerouted to Toronto, after a 7 hours flight , where we sat on the tarmac for a little over 4 hours, in a full airplain with no air. We were given a tiny cup of water twice during that wait. After the long wait we taxi out of toronto to wait another 30 min. Many people missed their conections including my kids and I. We were promised a hotel room in Montreal on the aircraft and at the exit of the aircraft, then directed to a desk after custom where me and my two kids were told that we do not get a room for the night and that we were on our own, after a back and fourth and stating what was told to us, the agent at the counter says that we are right and that we should have a room. I ask the lady if she could look into a different flight for us for the next day as I was with two you g kids and wanted them to get some rest. The gentlemen next to her jumps in and said there wss nothing without even (pretending) looking at their system, I insist and say that they could look for the kids. They seemed to have trouble with our reservation so they gave up. I told them that I needed to talk to a manager, they said there were no managers and that no one can do anything, to which I responded that there must be someone that could do something and that it does not make sense for them to repeat the same think as we are not undestanding each other. She threatns to call security and says I am rude. I say I will go, just give me the vouchers and ger response is “ not giving you the vouchers because you are rude”. I was not rude. It is normal to want to talk to a manager. I even said that the people at the counter were not resoonsible for the long journey and that there was nothing they could have done. But to threten and himiliate someone just because they ask for someone else to talk to ? I understand they are overwhelmed, but you know the quality and calibre of a company in the bad times not the smooth ones. I ended up leaving and paying for my own room and board.
Old and out of date plane, it seem like every time I fly with united there’s and issue. We were delayed,
We took off an hour late due to arrival airport not having enough gates. That was followed by 1:30 wait to get our bags delivered for the entire flight.
How badly can you screw up baggage claim? We were told to go to baggage claim too for our bags from this flight. Another flights bags were there. They finished up. More bags from a different flight arrived. Our bags did not Finally the baggage claim belt stopped working and and are flight was still listed on the arrivals for that baggage claim 2. And then nothing It turns out that they had been delivered not only the United baggage claim but far away on a Delta baggage claim No I never told us. It was only the people looking around who had been on the flight But I’m sure there was plenty of time for the employees to raffle through the bags and steal whatever they wanted
Cramped seats. Audio jack for the in -flight entertainment was broken.
Checkin was painful and slow! Lady didn’t seem to know what was going on and couldn’t explain the delay. Seemed ahe couldnt see the computer scree and we couldn’t hear her talk through her mask.
Best part: It’s operated by All Nippon Airways. It’s quite literally comfortable, reliable and respected from boarding to landing each and every time. It’s perfection without extremity in lavishness — it’s how flying should always be!
The crew was outstanding. And the food was surprisingly good. The chicken and the pasta dish were both delicious and I was supposed with a pizza twist near Landing. We hit a lot of turbulence and the crew was calm and kind. Loved the TV in screen. Tons of new releases.
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.
Flight didn’t get dinner on business. I was starving!
Everything was excellent. I loved my flight Thank you so much 😊
Terrible. Internet/kiosk glitch prevented baggage checkin. Line at ticket co in Ter was under serviced and did not move. Agents did not call for flight but rather allowed time to pass. Then told each person as they reached the front if line that it was too late to check bags so they’d have to rebook flights. At least 15 people missed the flight as a result of this incompetence.
No overhead space so all carryons were checked. No internet.
The flight was good. The only reason I did not say “excellent” was the delay
great experience. minimal lines at BWI. at DFW they got a long haul 787 boarded in 30 minutes
They could have done a better job announcing the boarding groups and asked for more drinks (water) if needed.
Flight delayed from rdu due to too much fuel. Had to stay overnight in dfw. Food vouchers inadequate to cover dinner and breakfast
The flight was delayed to Charlotte, but we made up some time in the air, so I do not have big complaints.
Boarding was disorganized and delayed because they overbooked and wanted people to give up seats then further delayed due to an issue with the plane. They did not load my bag and it took a day for them to return it. Flight attendant was lovely and the only positive thing about this trip.
Flight was on time It was a good flight overall
The flight overall was good but I believe giving back to the customers would be a plus. Not saying a big giving back but small is also acceptable like Wi-Fi (Free) or snacks(free). Just one would be good.
My experience with Spirit airlines was terrible. We had a 5 hour delay going to Jamaica and about a 3.5 hour delay returning home with no explanation keep in mind there was already a 4 hour layover in addition to the delay on the return home . We should have arrived in Montego Bay at 1:30pm on 12/22/24 instead we did not get there until about 5 or 6pm our final destination was Negril which is about a 2 hour drive from the airport so we did not reach our hotel until after 8pm so we literally spun the entire day traveling. On 12/27/24 we headed back home. We had arrived in Fort Lauderdale around 4-4:30pm for our layover expecting to be fly from there a little after 9pm and get back to Philadelphia by 12:05am Saturday morning 12/28/24. Once at the airport we kept receiving emails every 15-30 minutes or so apologizing for a delay with the time pushed further and further back. We did not depart from Fort Lauderdale until 12:33am. I forgot to mention that I was traveling with my 5 year old son so if you have small children you already know how that went. The only compensation they gave was two 12 dollar meal vouchers one for my son and one for for myself that we were not able to use because by the time they sent them the places in the airport were mostly closed and we were finally boarding the plane. The staff were very unprofessional and were being rude when we asked them questions about why the time kept getting pushed back. This was my first and absolute last time traveling by way of Spirit airlines. I most absolutely will not ever travel Spirit again. By far the most terrible travel experience thus far.
Great flight. The only thing I could complain about is the seat size/comfort level.....BUT...you're getting a bargain so you should know there must be compromises
First time flying Spirit and I was pleasantly surprised. Service was as advertised. Crew were very professional and friendly and excellent in dealing with a customer who felt ill on the flight.
Absolutely the MOST uncomfortable seat I've EVER had on ANY airline. It should be a criminal act (cruel & unusual punishment). NEVER AGAIN will I travel your airline.
I had a big seat for the same price of premium seat of other airlines. The flight was on time and everything is good.
WiFi didn’t work despite paying for it. Crew was nice.
I could not print my boarding passes and had to see an agent. However, the agents were very friendly and helpful.
Way better than I expected. The plane was so clean- the seats seemed brand new; although not super comfortable as they were lightly cushioned.. The crew helped me lift my bags up to the overhead bin which not many airlines do. I knew there would not be internet or food/snacks but you could buy some if you wanted .
