Great to have economy + on JAL. Economy + has their own designated check in. You are also able to use their lounge which is very relaxing. There is food, desserts and drinks available as well. The seats on the plane don’t recline very much and the isle way is narrow when you need to use the restroom. The food was just ok, typical airplane food taste. The stewardesses were very nice and helpful. Two meals were provided, and the last meal was a fish sandwich. Too bad I don’t eat seafood. The smell of fish was not a welcoming odor in a confined airplane. Overall, I would recommend JAL, (LAX to Tokyo)
They moved my seat without my consent and they won’t refund the money I spent on it. I paid for a front row aisle seat and they moved me to a center seat in the last row of premium economy. They were very rude about everything and nothing like Singapore Airlines or Korean Airways which I flown before.
Communication about delays was not very good. Crew and staff were excellent!
SAN-NRT was excellent experience with crew helping and assisting in all aspects of comfort. But NRT-BAN was not that comfortable with no blankets and pillows provided and treating it more like premier economy class. This has been the pattern I have observed where JAL uses non-trained crew, uncomfortable seats, restrooms not working, locking up window seats, business class comforts taken away on NRT-BAN route. Overall quality of service goes downhill on NRT-BAN flight. Not sure why?
I had a hard time checking in as my first and middle names lacked a space. The vendor spent a long time fixing it with the JAL. This should not have been a problem. Check in at ohare was good as Regina was very helpful and kind.
Dreamliner is an excellent aircraft. Great seats in business. Flight attendant Alex had a bored, sullen attitude in serving customers. Difficult to get his attention and very slow to respond to a simple request for water. Spoiled the experience a bit as the AA motto is “we’re here because of you”. Attitude needs some adjustment!
The best part was the staff. They are kind and gracious and made it a good flight.
Reasonable price, great service, highly recommended. i arrived well rested!
Since I traveled on my birthday, they gave me a gift and a card. How thoughtful and caring.
Our flight was canceled, then they moved us to a different flight number yet we didn’t receive notifications timely. We had to find out the latest on our own / later AA sent a text with the updated info..
Paid for seat assignments that did not in any way match seats received, and had to upgrade at checkin
All was great on flight to Tokyo. The ROOM setup was very comfortable. Definitely will try to do again.
I thought I purchased premium economy but got an economy seating for an expensive airfare from Kayak. Not able to pay extra to upgrade at all
On time, food was great. Didn’t wake me up when they saw me sleeping and as soon as I used the toilet, they came up and asked me if I wanted dinner. Right on!
I was expecting to fly in a Japanese airline because that what I bought, very disappointed finding out the change of airline without any explanation.
Excellent. There were setbacks, but it had nothing to do with the crew. Mostly, mechanical which delayed our flight.
It was so disappointed trip by unexpected company's fault delay. It had taken 3 hours delay for mechanical maintenance plus another 3 hours for bad weather.
SEA HND sector internet only worked for the last 2.5hrs of flight….. never had this kind of incident with other airlines
12 of the 14 hours were in the dark, all during daylight. Didn’t use my light because it disturbed other people it was illuminating. 14 hours sitting upright in a cramped space was horrible.
I’ve always had pleasant experiences with ANA and that has made me a loyal customer.
After flying with Qatar Airways and Kenya Airlines. Delta leaves a lot to be desired
A 6hr delay is going to put a damper on all reviews. It was almost impossible to get into the Delta club also. Zero conveyance. I could not use my status for anything. Makes me wonder why am I loyal to delta?
I fly coach so there is always the feeling everyone up front has more space than me. Everything was fine - on time which is the most important thing!
Great overall experience and use of the Delta One lounge was amazing!
I used by Skymiles to upgrade to First so that I could comfortably work using my laptop. But WiFi was intermittent and unavailable for long periods. I feel like I wasted 70,000 miles :(
Great as one can be for a one connection 6 hour flight
Left a few minutes early. Got in 15 minutes early. Very attentive service on board. Very organized boarding.
Crew was great. Friendly, calm, interesting, happy to be there. That makes a huge difference. Plane was very quiet. Also quite empty so I had three seats to sleep across
At this time they are the better choice, I appreciate their professionalism ✈️
I’ve been on this flight 4 times in the last year for work and the food never changes and always has my stomach upset by the end of the flight. The cold salad with dinner is never a fan favorite with my traveling team.
Seats are uncomfortable and left me in pain in my tailbone area. I got about one hour of sleep.
Comfortable seats and good crew. There should be some breakfast options in menu for economy class to purchase Wifi was not working in the flight
overall a very good travel experience - left on time, arrived early. Mostly a smooth flight. Polaris seats were excellent, very good service and nice food with options.
Flight delayed and then cancelled (due to mechanical issues + weather). Poor communication. No one there to help with rebooking and accommodations for the night we had to stay in Newark. Our luggage was taken off the original flight and apparently left on the tarmac in the rain. Items were soaking rain. The following day, the flight was also delayed due to mechanical issues. The second year in a row that I had to sleep in an airport flying from Tokyo to Newark due to mechanical issues compounded by bad weather. Partly bad luck and partly just poor service.
Polaris seat is plush and conducive to sleep. Cabin crew was experienced, highly attentive and helpful when any need arose, such as finding a lost phone in the seat mechanism. Food was a disappointment, especially the Japanese items coming out of Newark all seemed a bit overcooked, though the empanada snacks served midway were a hit.
I was promised by United Airline (operated by ANA) that I will be seated together with my kids as I am the only adult flying with two minors. We did not get seats together in our 11 hours flight from LA to Tokyo. When asked at the gate, ANA representative said United Airline should have informed them that there is a parent flying with two minors. He said they can’t do anything in the system as the flight is full. He ask me to ask passengers next to me and the kids if they are willing to change seats. This is ridiculous! However, I went in the flight and asked other passages but no one willing to change seats. 11 hours and we were seating separately. I was very disappointed with this. It made things super inconvenient for me.
I flew from Santa Fe to Denver to catch a flight to London and the transfer of my luggage on arrival at Denver to the London flight worked perfectly. The crew on the ground and on board for the London flight were so friendly and efficient.
My husband and I had boarded the flight from Denver to Chicago, and one of the last passengers to get on the plane opened the overhead bin above my husband's seat and threw his bag out of the bin to make space for his own. He said, "Mine is bigger!" The flight attendant supported the new passenger. They didn't care that my husband has two artificial knees and must have the foot room in front of his seat to be able to fit his legs in -- and to be able to stand, much less walk, at the end of the flight. I have never seen this happen before, and it was a disaster.
The flights from Ottawa to Albuquerque went smoothly enough though on on flight they didn't have how water for coffee or tea and on another there there was no ice. The return flights from Albuquerque were delayed by mechanical problems on both flights. Ottawa was a ground crew maintenance issue.
This flight worked as promised, a rare event these days. Of course it helped that we were upgraded. The food was, however, as bad as ever.
Very Good in general. Serving attitude are very good. Just a suggestion: There 2 things can be improved: 1. The flight attendants can lower the voices when they talked in the serving station. Sometimes they talked loud and we could hear clearly what they said about the passengers. 2. Please don’t throw the utensils and plates it’s too loud and noisy. They broke the glasses and plates sometimes at the business class. These all could be done in a gentle way. Just some small observations. Thanks.
I liked the fact that I was able to choose different food than typical all-in-one or two options. The refreshments kept coming so I really did not sleep & I am adjusting time different much better than the past experiences. I like the variety of movies & shows that I was able to watch.
With a 24 hour delay, the Flight stared off rough. They had a nationwide IT Outage but communications to Passengers was very bad. Ground Staff and Ticket Agents were extremely rude and unhelpful. Perhaps they should take ground training from DL or Qatar. The food was horrible. Seafood was mixed with Bacon. Those two don’t have any space for Jewish or Muslim Faith Customers. The Airline needs new management.
Crew were professional and kind. The flight was smooth. But... The internet, which we paid 35 dollars for, did not work for most of the flight. This made providing media for our child an uncomfortable hassle.
The crew was very attentive through out the flight. Seats were comfortable, nice flight bag with pillow and blanket. Food was okay, since it was a overnight flight seemed to go by fast.
They cancelled two flight and got us onto another airline, which was also delayed.
Boarding and crew were great. Everything was. On time. The 737 was Incredibly Uncomfortable!! Too tight in seat area for one, but, the real problem was that the seats were AWFUL. After an 8 hour flight from Dallas to Madrid my lower back was miserable and I am fit: I never have back problems. It took 2 days to recover. Honestly I can’t recommend AA for long distance flights. Plus for a $1200+ ticket they wanted $30 for 2 hours of internet. Thank you for listening.
A nearly half-hour delay to board/depart meant that our connection in DFW was less than 30 minutes. If the flight attendants would have made an announcement to the flight to allow those with close connections to de-plane first it would have helped, but nothing. We *barely* made our connection, with no time to eat or user the restroom between flights.
My first flight from Santa Fe was 1.5 hours delayed, I missed the connecting flight. I got tickets to the next flight to San Francisco. The flight is over two hours delayed and we had to change the plane. I will never fly American Airlines again. Absolutely horrible experience!
My flight change many times and after it was canceled and I have to stay 1 more day
