I feel the service staff do not treat American customers well. I also feel there may be discrimination against minorities.
Better food; taste, portion. Bottle of water per seat was great.
Yes avoid JFK airport at all costs. A horror to navigate.
The only negative thing was boarding a Copenhagen-bound flight in Toronto. The middle aged woman at the desk gave me some bad time, claiming they wouldn't allow me to board the flight, switching to russian in the process. After I asked her to speak English and explained her that I had to reroute with the airline due to flight cancelations that where beyond my contro and will be leaving the Shengen zone promptly, she told me I had to check in my small bag because the flight was full and they needed someone to give up their cabin luggage. After I refused, she told me she would have to check my bag if it fits the allowed dimensions, which it did. I understand she's not an SAS employee, I understand she needs to check the documents and also make sure there's enough room for overhead bags on a plane. What really made me mad was her hostike tone and the beyond poor communication skills. Basic politeness would go a long way.
I could make online check-in anywhere. Check-in was complicated I could use your app for and it was hard find information for check-in for airline checking in their app. After hour I had to go anyway to make check in the airport. Rest of the flight was more than good
The seat in economy are comfy, with some legroom and shoulder room. The food was above average. The plane was newish.
It wasn't an AeroMexico connect but SAS, I dunno where that AeroMexico info came from. A word to the wise - do NOT get an international connecting flight into Eurooe at Copenhagen that has less than an hour layover between flights, or you'll never make it. You'll need to go thru immigration at the airport before catching your next flight, which takes some time, and then it could be a good half hour walk or more over to your next gate. Kayak lined up flights for us with only a 45-minute layover and it was literally impossible to make the nect flight ... I figured if their robots thought it woukd work it should be ok, but don't trust the robots! Had to wait for the next plane to make it to our destination.
Really good. Everything went smoothly. That's what I hope for when I'm on a long flight, especially with multiple changes. Thank you SAS.
I was unable to rebook a flight booked through cheap flights. Could not rebook, despite premium eco.
Our originating flight into Copenhagen was an hour delayed, causing us to miss our main flight from Copenhagen to the US. There had been snow and we needed to be de-iced, but they seemed very slow getting the flight ready, with no explanation. The delay caused us to be put in with thousands stuck at the airport with an all day wait to get rebooked on a flight 2 days out.
Repurchased food and it was moldy and expensive. But I figured it was bad luck so I purchased a cup-o-noodles, halfway through them we hit turbulence and the flight attendant was passing with the garbage, it would have been two seconds to grab it, but he was snarky grabbed someone else’s plastic cups and went to buckle up… I used the puke bags to secure the soup before it became an accessory. When he finally came around he gave me a face like a petulant child as I handed him the soup neatly wrapped in the paper then plastic bag. I watched a movie in silence as the rental or headphones was ridiculous at 4€ for those .10€ cheap plastic toys. No English subtitles on an American movie… crazy. I disliked the whinny little tourist trap and now I hope that it sinks into the ocean or erupts in a catastrophic eruption for their beloved “I live on an active volcano” pride.
At least one soda free, felt like I was nickeled to death.
On-time arrivals and departures. Crew helpful and friendly. Yet everything costs extra: seat selection, food, even airphones!
Friendly flight crew. Airplane (757) configured as a domestic flight (no lie-flat seats) & no advanced meal selection.
Was a bit surprised that Icelandair flies a domestically configured 757s on long-haul flights to Iceland (no lie-flat seats in business class).
The Icelandair crew was so kind!!! Thank you for making my first trip to Paris a great one!
I am not going to fillo this out for each leg of my trip. My first review holds for the experience
The movie choices were poor. The worst problem is the treatment of passengers durinng pre-boarding. In one case the primes were checked in and sent down the boarding tunnek only to stand waiting there while the plane is cleaned. In the second case the bus was loaded, the doors closed and just stood there unmoving like sardeines in a tin for over TEN minutes. In both cases it was rough on us old guys who find standing for long periods trying.. In other words, Donnt just stack us up and forget us.
Second time with Saga Premium, everything was fab, but the entertainment centre on both my flights didn't work, plus the seat on the NY to Rek flight (Airbus) was so solid and so uncomfortable. The 737Max flight's seat was much, much better.
Waiting area on top of stairs before Boarding the bus wasn’t great. Took a long time to load the bus to gate.
