Part of the first class package is luggage. We checked our luggage in easily but our luggage should be one of the first bags off when we land. On both flights this was not the case. The lounge in Kauai is awful. Food and drinks were excellent on the flight. Service was attentive. On the flight over we arrived 45 minutes early. Like last time the same thing happened in a previous flight. The problem both times was waiting in the plane for 30 minutes so that a spot to unload could open.
Great trip. No complaints. Impressed with the crew’s response to various challenges pre-boarding.
The ticket I purchased through Kayak did not show up in my Alaska Airlines app, and neither of the codes given to me worked for online check in. I've never had to show up to the airport at 6am wondering if I've been scammed. Cheap flight fare or whatever does not play well with airlines and I will be wary of using Kayak in the future.
I would like if it had happened already. I'm still waiting for it.
Everything except for the lack of a choice of the snack provided was great.
I was in the middle seat in the last row but that wasn’t their fault. It is why I rated the flight as mediocre, also the landing was a little rough. The good was really good. The self service luggage belt at SEATAC stopped working right when I reached it. I was literally placing my bag on the small belt when the main belt stopped. I understand that it wasn’t just Alaska but the entire side of the terminal. It took the agents about 20 minutes to arrive at a game plan and it certainly wasn’t flawless but they arranged for our luggage to be taken to the plane the old fashioned way by hand. Understandably, the plane was late in leaving. The flight took the proper amount of time and instead of arriving at OAK at 1:45, we got there at 2:30. I took my time getting to baggage claim because I knew it would be late if it was there at all. Sure enough it wasn’t but there was an agent there to greet me and inform me about my luggage. Long story longer, they delivered my luggage to where I was staying which was an hour away from the airport. Alaska has instituted a delivery type tracking system through my email that kept me informed of where my luggage was the whole time. WELL DONE!!
Cramped, crowded aircraft. Poorly organized boarding. Tasteless crackers to eat. 40 minutes late. A standard US air travel experience.
Lots of turbulence in last 45 minutes, but captain kept us very well informed, which was a big help to a nervous flyer.
Smooth and quick, no wait and no hassle. Everything was on time and even the pretzels were good. Thank you!
The staff was friendly. The flight was fine and the food service was fine. We found the Seattle Airport to be very confusing. And not user friendly. Not enough directional signs -- it was hard to figure out where to go. As we entered the line to get to where they checked our ID before we went through the bag check, the staff member wanted us to get out of the line to walk for much longer to get to that area. It was nuts. One of our party spoke up and insisted that we stay where we were. She let us proceed.
No gluten free snacks. Seats felt worn or bare bones even though it was a new 737 MAX 8.
Boarding was easy. The seats are small and fairly uncomfortable
The boarding and seat assignment system no longer works for me, but I know it is being replaced. Otherwise, I am good with the overall experience.
San Diego airport is brand new, spacious, airy and very smooth checkin at SW baggage drop.
Very smooth checking in our luggage with a super pleasant SW agent. I enjoyed a fun entertaining movie.
Great flight, 47 passengers on a 180 seat plane. Stewardess was pleasant and cheerful.
Fine, but how to board on SW versus othrr airlines, is just lame. Goood staff though and all was solid otherwise.
Everything went well, but the flight was delayed multiple times. The delays were only minutes, but it was without information on why it was delayed.
Multiple delays, poor communication of information and a 4 hour delay with multiple gate changes ...
No problems with the flight, my issue is with the terminal at SAN airport. I’ve never seen a dirtier, worse equipped terminal. No power plugs worked, but you could of course buy a fuel rod battery from the kiosk (seemingly the only thing that worked).
Crew was real good, flight was smooth and came in early.
Love me some Delta. One of the few airlines to recognize and support veterans. Easy boarding, flight was on time and arrived early and the flight attendants were excellent on this flight.
We sat on the runway for over an hour before departure. That was unwelcome.
Flight delayed four separate times. I’m now one hour hours late to landing.
worst flight ever from Delta, it got delayed and kept on delaying..
Everything went smoothly, although the usual gripes about airline travel were still present: the boarding process is inefficient, the snack selection is limited, and so on. Since there was extra space on the flight, the gate agent rearranged many people's seats to put people on the aisles and windows, leaving the middle seats empty, as much as possible, which was pretty great.
While they turned off most cabin lights to allow people to sleep, I was bothered by how bright the side lights still were. It was still quite bright for me in a window seat, when I wish I could have slept!
One of the flight attendants was a little cranky. I appreciated the free wifi and plug to charge my laptop
WiFi didn’t work most of the time. The usb chargers would work only occasionally for 5 mins and wouldn’t charge after that. Had to keep trying repeatedly at each of the seats in the row.
The crew bent over backwards to thank us for flying and make us comfortable. The food service was quick and efficient. The Captain communicated and said goodbye and thank you as we departed. They really stood out!
I liked the Starlink WiFi but didn't like how they said they were the only airline to offer a free meal and it turns out to be just a standalone sandwich and then charge for snacks to go with it. Rather have the free snacks like Southwest, but have the option to purchase a decent meal for a 5+ hour flight.
The crew was EXTREMELY helpful And sweet and the flight was smooth!
First class ticket. They ran out of food and I sat hungry watching the others eat
I loved flying Hawaiian Air! We didn’t pay to sit together, but we were able to anyway. They had usb charging ports and even outlets in some seats. They served a hot sandwich that was not very good, but we were still pleasantly surprised. The staff was very nice. The seats really made my booty hurt but maybe I’m just not used to sitting so long. Also, the AC was really cold even though I was wearing pants, a hoodie, and a light blanket.
Really enjoyed their food treats, staff was friendly and they kept our seats together, check in was excellent, boarding passes uploaded to my wallet! I would definitely recommend Hawaiian airlines to friends and family! 🌺
Starlink is a big plus and great customer service - boarding agent and the flight attendants
Boarding was efficient and there was enough overhead space. Passengers were cooperative about helping each other out. I think folks are happy about going to Hawaii.
I never could connect to a movie. The site is not user friendly
Great flight. Had free internet for whole flight. Made it so much more enjoyable
The jet bridge electricity was out. We were boarding in the dark. No air-conditioning and it was extremely hot. Every person that came out of that jet bridge into the aircraft was profusely sweating. Truthfully, sitting in first class, it was no Hawaiian hospitality. Just a bunch of senior flight attendants are doing their routine over and over.
Our flight was canceled. I will never use Kayak nor Frontier for travel again. The entire experience was a headache.
Terrible. The canceled my entire flight when I requested a refund for a trip frontier canceled trip one way.
i was unable to check in the flight. refund requested
I think Frontier was very good at communication. Their app worked very well. Loading was great and the flight was nice and easy.
Great for the price. No wifi or entertainment, but gate agents and crew were fantastic and we boarded quickly and left on time.
Decent clean onboard experience. Okay discount airline experience. Unfortunately, any customer service interactions are difficult and unhelpful. There is no service. Also, a premium seat only gets you premium boarding if you line up first. Once they start general boarding you must go to the back of the line. Not very premium
The crew was mostly okay. The flight attendant who answered our questions was curt and unhelpful unfortunately. He seemed upset and I understand having off days.
Very bad! No good service delayed my second connection flight
They canceled flight. Hard to believe there was even a plane incoming for us to get on
Plane was down graded and I lost my uncharged exit row with more leg room. No mention or offer of refund from podium. Flight attendant was nice to explain this happens often and that I could request a refund via online form submission. I did this and have heard nothing back.
