3hour delay In the last 3 months i had 3 flights and 2 of these had a more than 2:40 hrs delayed
My initial flight to ORD was extended without reason. We circled the airport a few time and then drove on the ground for at least 20 minutes. These kinds of delays are annoying but somewhat expected… it would be nice if the crew would make an announcement to give updates on how long we could expect to be delayed.
Fantastic. I am low vision and was impressed with how helpful and accommodating the service tam was. It was super appreciated! I was pleasantly surprised about how delicious the food was. Like, “I wish I had more even though I’m no longer hungry” delicious. 100% enjoyable trip.
The flight was uneventful. What was a problem was I was delayed getting home one entire day because the flight from Sacramento was delayed. That made getting to my connecting flight impossible. I had to stay another night at the hotel and incur that expense as a result.
Flights were on time both ways, such a big plus! Staff was very accommodating and friendly. Question the choice of snacks that, which on both flights was dairy based. Appreciated using bottled water.
This flight was fine but had no time to breathe as the connection was late from Sea to ORD.. Super stressful. If we checked bags, the trip would have been very distressed.
Seats were very uncomfortable. I paid extra for a seat with more leg room, the seat was no different than a seat at the back of the plane. Flight attendant was rude.
Seating accommodations in Premium Economy are excellent. Some of the food was very good but leaving room for improvement. All the AA Associates were courteous and professional.
the food choice of packaged chips and popcorn was utterly ridiculous for first class
