Scores according to KAYAK customer reviews
Pros: "quick ontime boarding"
Cons: "Internet"
Pros: "I was in first class this time. The seat was comfortable for the flight of roughly 2-1/2 hours. We were served a continental breakfast that was filling and healthy with cereal, fresh fruit, Brie, soft crackers and yogurt. I'd rather have something simple but satisfying than something overcomplicated and possibly not that good. The crew was polite and efficient. I did have to use the lavatory at one point and I was happy that it was clean."
Cons: "The entertainment system was down, but it wasn't American - it was gogoflight or whatever it's called. I ended up listening to my Audible so it turned out alright, but on a 2+ hour flight, it could have been frustrating."
Pros: "Movie selection and internet quality was Ok"
Cons: "The attendant made me check in my only carry on bag despite there was plenty of space on the plane for it. My bag was subsequently lost in the airport as it was moved to a different carousel without any notice. There was no food offered."
Pros: "Everything was on time considering the heavy Holidays travels."
Pros: "Airlines have no respect for customers anymore, planes are big buses with uncomfortable seating and little more. They nickel and dime you and punish you when you don't want to leave your salary with them."
Cons: "Get rid of the caste system you have imposed and all the fees you want to charge for everything. More room for real people, not seating for leprechauns. Better boarding procedures. Pretty much everything could be better but they have no interest in making it better just charg as much as they can."
Pros: "Good entertainment"
Cons: "Flight was delayed 3+ hours due to no qualified pilots available to fly to HNL"
Cons: "The crew could not have been any less accommodating for a nursing mother flying without my baby and needing to pump. I will be writing and submitting an official complaint to American Airlines ."
Pros: "Yup, the best part was that even with Basic Economy our family got to sir together and love that the carry-on is free again. Try the crackers instead of Pretzels as a snack though"
Pros: "food,movies, prices"
Cons: "Rude and disrespectful"
Pros: "Flight attendants were the best ever."
Cons: "Entertainment set up was confusing and slow. Headphones didn’t work. Seat didn’t recline."
Pros: "Veggie Asian meal was great - curry."
Cons: "Freezing cold air conditioning. Seven hours siting in a fridge. Asked stewardess to turn it up. She didn't."
Pros: "Finnair uses the American Airlines flight for this destination. Non-stop flight Raleigh to Heathrow (round trip).. Fantastic, on time and comfortable aircraft."
Cons: "It would have been easier to book our seat assignments if Fdfinnair had directed us to contact American Airlines directly to get seat assignments. Could not pre-select through Finnair. If you did not want the meat meal the vegetarian meals on both flights included mushrooms...not into fungi."
Cons: "Food was dreadful and plane was very cold and that was in first class"
Pros: "I like that the flight left on time and arrived early at LAX."
Cons: "They ran out of breakfast. Seat configuration was 3-3-3 in economy and not 2-4-2 like on the JAL flight on the way to Japan. The level of professionalism is much higher on JAL in regards to the flight attendants than AA. The boarding process still needs a lot of work to be more organized (take a look at JAL as an example - they treat customers like kings and queens). Also, there was no way to get a seat assignment through the JAL website. That website looks and acts like it’s from the late 90s."
Cons: "No power outlets our video screens at seats. No food served on 4 hour flight."
Cons: "This was the worst flight experience of my life I will never flyAmerican again"
Pros: "Nothing, American Airlines is the worst major airline now."
Cons: "The staff in Miami Airport is really bad, worst attitude I have seen, old planes, not comfortable, definetly the worst major airline now."
Pros: "Except for narrow seats, all fine"
Cons: "Narrow seats (we were in exit row, so plenty a leg room)"
Pros: "Staff was great!"
Cons: "Seats were really uncomfortable up and reclined. Overhead baggage was full by the time I boarded and there was no enforcement of the carry-on baggage sizes... This needs to be addressed and contributed to our lack of comfort, noting this was the last leg of an 18 hour journey. My body still hurts today after a good nights sleep."
Cons: "Our audio did not work for movies. The food was super cheap"
Pros: "Staff was courteous. Plane was clean."
Cons: "It was a very grueling trip. Plane left Rome at 9:15a but that meant getting there at 7:15a. Plane was kept dark even though it was daylight outside. Staff was courteous but did not particularly demonstrate awareness of the strain on the travelers being cramped for 10+ hours. Plane was so cramped that one could not take a stretch walk down the aisles to alleviate muscle cramp being in same position for 10 hours. My ultimate destination was San Jose, CA, but that entailed a wait at O'Hare from 12:30p to 8p. Again, staff uninterested in traveler comfort in these parameters. American felt okay to delay my last leg from Chicago to San Jose an hour later than original scheduled, but offered no compensation for the addition to my discomfort. The switch from British Airways to American was a surprise. New flight numbers, change increased my travel stress. I am only 5'3" and not obese, yet could not really fit in my seat: kept getting bumped by passers by in aisle. Airline uninterested in passenger comfort."
Pros: "Not much"
Cons: "Seating horrible"
Cons: "Terrible airline. Will not fly them again."
Cons: "The internet wasn't working, and the flight attendant told me there was nothing she could do about it. The touch screens on the back of the seat had difficulty responding to touch. The headphone jacks and headphones they gave us on the plane were not compatible. If it twisted even a bit, it would lose the connection. I understand these may seem petty, but they are things we've come to expect on airline travel. If they aren't going to be there, please let us know when we book our tickets so we can plan accordingly. The flight attendant for my section of the plane was cold and a bit rude. I didn't want to ask her for anything."
Pros: "Tiny airplane but single flght crew managed my and from what I could see fellow passengers needs commendably. Whilst I didn't like needing to hand in my carry on (without much warning so I didn't have time to pull out a magazine to read) on the plus side it was stored well as my suit carrier came out unscathed and you get your bags curb side as soon as the plane lands so you don't have to wait for the rest of the bags to unload."
Cons: "Because the airplane is so small there is not much room to move in the aisle (thankfully most people just sat down for the short flight), also you have to hand in your carry on baggage so that it is stored with the main bags."
Pros: "Plenty of room in first class. Flight crew was efgicient"
Cons: "Flight was not catered, therefore we ended up with only a small cup of water. It wasn't worth the upgrade to first class. Also, the upgrade indicated our luggage would be a priority at baggage claim. We had connection to make for an international flight, but here I sight at baggage claim 1...waiting and waiting."
Pros: "It seems like the plane was recently renovated and I loved the comfortable seats."
Cons: "There was virtually no free entertainment available."
Pros: "On time departure"
Cons: "Please use the A330 for the return trip..."
Pros: "Boarding was simple"
Cons: "For my whole three hour flight a child kicked my chair, i asked the mother politely if she could get her to stop. the woman didn't even apologize and the kicking continued for three hours."
Cons: "Felt as though some American Airlines crew members were abrupt. I've never experienced that with Qantas or Jetstar."
Pros: "We had a wonderful flight experience. Smooth take off and landing. The in flight service was impeccable! Will definitely be flying American Airlines again."
Pros: "Ordinary flight, not too chaotic for holiday weekend."
Cons: "My luggage was lost! Had to wait an entire day to recuperate my suitcases."
Cons: "only food was "cookies" and no variety. Other airlines give at least a choice of the "free" foods."
Pros: "* on time * courteous staff"
Pros: "Crew was lovely"
Cons: "1 hour late"
Cons: "Delays"
Pros: "The people"
Cons: "The seats are too small I'm 6'1 and that's not that tall"
Pros: "I had ample room and I really like the biscuits"
Pros: "The professionalism of the crew."
Cons: "The flight left late and they did not explain why their was a delay. The landing was not smooth. It was a rough landing."
Cons: "The seats are TOO DAMN SMALL!!!!"
Cons: "They cancelled the flight and put me to fly the next day"
Cons: "The flight was super late."
Pros: "Available drinks"
Cons: "Poor selection and no coffee"
Pros: "I got to my destination safely. That's about the only good thing."
Cons: "The flight was delayed 4 times. The airline was not very helpful during times of delay - normally airlines would offer food or drink vouchers - none of that. The flight was delayed for a total of 4 hours. When I arrived into LAX, I had requested if I could go on an earlier flight if there was space (rather than catching the later one - an hour later). They asked me to pay $200 to change it. Fair enough if you want to charge me for a change of ticket - but then the plane that I was supposed to go on got delayed for 3 hours and you don't offer any sort of compensation - thats really not something I expect from American Airlines"
Pros: "The crew was excellent and the plane was new."
Cons: "The seats are entirely too close together. If I wanted to be crammed in uncomfortably close to the seat in front of me, I would have chosen a budget airline like Spirit. I am not a large person by any means in terms of height or weight, and I cannot imagine how anyone who is relatively tall could ever be comfortable on your airline. Will not likely book again."
Pros: "Nothing"
Cons: "Everything"
Pros: "Prompt boarding, checked our carryons for free"
Cons: "Air up too high like a refrigerator"
Cons: "That it was delayed"
Pros: "The flight attendant in business class was awesome!"
Cons: "Great flight"
Cons: "Delay that caused us missing the connecting flight."
Cons: "Flight delayed"
Pros: "Got on the plane easily and quickly. Great movie selection"
Cons: "Very cramped seating"
Cons: "WiFi"
Pros: "Seats were uncomfortable and badly maintained. Seatback stowage netting was detached and useless. There was an equipment change (new larger aircraft) I had a B (aisle seat) on the original aircraft and on the new plane my "B" seat became a middle seat. This was completely unsatisfactory."
Cons: "Lack of communication from flight deck or cabin crew as to engine shutdown and takeoff delay at MSO. Just plain irritating and completely unnecessary"
Pros: "Great crews"
Cons: "Not sure"
Pros: "Cost"
Cons: "Aircon was too cool"
Cons: "We were 4 hours late"
Pros: "My daughter never made the flight because the ticket referenced a gate at LHR that didn't exist. No one at the airport was able to assist her in obtaining the correct gate and she subsequently missed the flight."
Cons: "See above"
Cons: "Lines in oranestad"
Cons: "The WiFi was out"
Pros: "On time. Flight attendant was exceptional."
Pros: "Everything went like clockwork"
Cons: "Late conn. arrival. RAN to gate, getting there 10 min before scheduled departure, only to be informed the gate was closed and no attempts to help. They knew we were coming, but..."
Pros: "It’s existance. Informative capt."
Cons: "Late almost 3 hours. Sketchy bev service. 50 seat RJ."
Pros: "The flight arrived safely and arrived on time."
Cons: "My one time United club passes were not honored. Everything is an upcharge. Newark airport is awful going terminal to terminal by bus."
Cons: "There was no entertainment available on this flight. It's a short flight so I don't expect any, however, I continued on to Phoenix that day from Chicago and that is a long flight. I expected free entertainment on that flight, as it was afforded on the flight on the Phoenix to Chicago leg of my flights earlier in the week. The Chicago to Phoenix had entertainment offered but it there was a fee, which I didn't appreciate and did not take part in. I looked around me as much as possible and didn't see anyone else pay for entertainment. Having in flight movies and TV available for feee is a great incentive for flying with United. If these long flights in the future are pay for view, I will not be flying with you when there are alternative carriers who do provide free entertainment. Thank you."
Pros: "The fact that the flight was very smooth, easy landing and we were on the same flight with our friends."
Cons: "I felt, cramped in my seat, NO DARN SNACKS for a 4-hour flight, no TV/MOVIE and why do you only give customers a half can of soda/juice????"
Pros: "On time, quick and efficient boarding."
Cons: "Entertainment system didn't work on my phone. Crowded seating, even in Economy Plus."
Pros: "At minimum you want to be sitting in economy plus."
Pros: "The flight was excellent"
Pros: "SERVICE WAS VERY GOOD AND FRIENDLY STAFF"
Pros: "Flight was cancelled, basically no communication and I had to stay 3.45 hours in line to be able to reschedule my new flight."
Pros: "Nothing"
Cons: "I had 4 sets of tickets because of failures and delays"
Pros: "Comfortable seats for economy"
Cons: "Computers were down in Akron Ohio. Flight was delayed an hour. Chicago was delayed 2 hours. There was an earlier flight i should have been booked on."
Pros: "The flight was on time and our luggage arrived on time."
Cons: "There's not much attention to friendliness any longer. The stewardess isn't any longer interested in making you feel welcomed. Seats are now so cramed together that you can barely lower your tray unless of course you want to pay an extra $100."
Pros: "The time getting there on time or early"
Pros: "I love THe. cak airport. ANd I am flying United again tomorrow"
Cons: "My carry on. Didn't fit. Had to check it after I boarded. Front desk said it was good. I bought it For THaT purpose.. The retailer advertises it as tsa approved carry oOn?"
Pros: "The free pass to united club lounge"
Cons: "They change my seat to the very last one. Flight attendants are old wrinkled and grumpy. The plane looked and smelled old. The pilot took 30 minutes to take off. Bumpy take off and it seem like the plane was struggling to gain altitude."
Pros: "Crew was very friendly."
Cons: "No leg room."
Pros: "Have no trouble boarding and the crew were excellent."
Cons: "Seats are to narrow and the distance from the gate to baggage claim was very long. Everything else was good."
Cons: "Delay. Disgusting snack coffee cold and tasted just awful. Upgraded seat. No tv except on phone and poor choices"
Cons: "To watch anything, must pay to watch a tv show or movie. Internet has to be paid for too."
Pros: "I liked when Delta stepped up and had us booked on one of their flights within seconds, after United abandoned us at their own terminal."
Cons: "Flight delayed 3 times due to maintenance, total of 5 hours. After final arrival time came and went with no plane or even announcement, I had to go back through security to front desk to find a rep and remind United that they had forgotten about us. They handed us off to the Delta counter with no apology (except the "new girl" apologized)"
Pros: "Staff was so hospitable"
Cons: "Crying baby"
Pros: "Crew were fine."
Cons: "Twelve hours of horrible delays, missed connections, and running through airports due to poor aircraft maintenance and mechanical problems. Will never fly United again if I have a choice."
Pros: "nothing"
Cons: "the whole experience was horrible."
Cons: "Seat are very cramped. I'm short and hardly ever complain about leg room but it was terrible."
Pros: "Quick boarding, friendly crew."
Cons: "No in flight entertainment. Only pay option with screen in front of your face the whole time. Finally figured out how to turn off screen. Only sweet snack offered. Not good for people with dietary issues, pretzels would have been better."
Pros: "i liked that the flight was smooth and departed/arrived on time and the crew was fairly friendly."
Cons: "i didn't like that i paid for an upgrade to first class and received mediocre service (they ran out of dinner choices by the second row, not very attentive to drink/water refills); also, despite the priority tag on my bag, it was the very last one unloaded off of the plane. the entertainment wasn't working properly and wi-fi is not included in first class services."
Pros: "The struf waffles"
Cons: "Every thing went well"
Cons: "Little more time between flights would be nice"
Pros: "From Akron to Cleveland it was a great trip"
Cons: "Waiting, wondering, waiting, wondering, being cold. Mechanical problems led to long delays, the whys, how's and when's told to us were confusing. Arrival delayed from about 10 pm to about 2am. Affected the sleep before a workday of the family member who picked me up. Felt like a victim of United."
Pros: "Nothing"
Cons: "Baggage pick up"
Cons: "It was a very packed flight and I feel like the boarding process could've gone smoother."
Pros: "The crew was very nice and accommodating. Quick boarding process"
