My experience was good overall, the quality of the food really decreased! There used to be a choice between meat and fish now it’s between chicken and pasta! In the choices of entertainment meditation has been added which is very good. Soft chair workout to improve blood circulation and avoid phlebitis should be added.
The only reason the overall rating wasn't "excellent" was due to problems in claiming luggage. The bags are delivered to the main area (Cinta 35) for domestic passengers, but to a DIFFERENT ROOM for international arrivees. After waiting 30 minutes, someone (who didn't appear to be from Air France or the airport) told us to go to another area. There we found our bags, which appeared to have been awaiting us for a while. We had to go through a bag check before leaving the airport. If we had been alerted to this possibility, or better yet, been to go directly to Cinta 34, we could have eliminated quite a bit of waiting.
Much better than the major US Carriers especially in Biz Class.
I wish that the meal included a vegetable or even a salad instead of couscous! Why serve chicken with rice AND couscous? Service was good overall though a bit lacking in friendliness. Usually on air france I've been offered a glass of champagne before dinner, wine with dinner, and a digestif after dinner. We were only offered wine this time!
It was not Air France but Air Europa. But confusion over our checked luggage. Whether it was checked all the way to Tenerife or not. It was not. Had to line up again in Departures. At least our Sky Priority was honoured. Flight was fine.
My wife and I had a row to ourselves after moving seats. There were no TVs and you had to buy food. So we did nothing but had a quick nap. Flight was fine.
The plane was old Only 3 bathrooms available for economy The entertainment was old and the selection was poor
Georgian Airways check in staff initially denied us, because they thought passengers required transit visas to transfer on connecting flights. This required 70 minutes for them to call multiple people to confirm how transfers worked. They did not apologize once accepting our check in. Onboard, the four hour flight gave stale bread with spam slices as lunch. The only included drinks were still or sparkling water.
I did not get my baggage at my final destination..poor coordination with connecting flights with partner airlines (Saudi airways). Also the food was very mediocre.
Not a good one this time. The absence of internet without any information/notification ahead was really the unacceptable part. Also this new A350-900 has a serious legroom challenge for economy seats. It’s more like a medium-haul flight legroom configuration.
The flight was delayed for an hour an half the for 30 mins more then for another hour and 10 mins, total of more than 3 hours delay.
At the Check-in desk in Constantine, I put my luggage on the belt. It wasn’t very full. The Air Algerie agent said that my luggage was too heavy, and so I had to pay money. I asked how heavy it was, and he said 20 kg. I doubt just clothes would be that heavy. So I asked how much money I had to pay. He said 12000 Dinars, which is about $150 dollars (i.e., about 150 Euros). I started objecting, saying I don’t have that much Dinars, mostly because one can’t exchange dollars or Euros for Dinars. No one would get on a flight to Paris with 150 Euros worth of Dinars. Worthless. Also, I told him the flight itself didn’t cost as much as $150, so this charge was way too high. But, the Check-in person insisted that they would no take my luggage weighing that much (20 kg). So I asked what weight it must be. He hesitated, looked upward for a few seconds, and said 10 kg. So I stepped a few feet away and transferred clothes from my luggage to my backpack, leaving my luggage feeling 1/2 the original weight - - - hopefully now only 10 kg. I went up to the Check-in desk again. The Check-in guy put my bag on the scale, and said, “You still must pay 12000 Dinars.”. I asked why, and he said my ticket did not include any luggage at all. I objected immediately, saying that I had a round-trip ticket and that Air Algerie carried my luggage from Paris to here in Constantine. Therefore my ticket must actually have included luggage going both ways, round trip. But he continued to say that, no, my ticket didn’t include luggage, and that I must pay 12000 Dinars. At that point another Air Algerie agent walked up behind me, asking what was going on. When I told him, he said, “Come with me.” He took me 30 feet away, behind a pillar. He asked how much money I had. I said $40 US dollars and 20 Euros. He looked one way and then the other way. He said, “Give me the $40 and I’ll see what I can do.” A couple minutes later he said it was all fine, and they would take my luggage. So I went back to the Check-in counter, and they took my luggage, saying, “Don’t worry, it’s all fine. Everything is fine.”
Always late , never on time people rushing to catch their connection flight , the only punctuality of air algerie is for sure they delay the flight
Air algerie flights always the same Late or canceled with poor service So , not a surprise The flight yesterday full and late with poor service as usual
3hours deleyed, absolutely horrible day.,horrible company.,bad service.,they should check the flight if it safe before letting the passengers in .. it was a technical problem ( very hot temperatures inside the flight) we had to come back and change the flight.never again with this company
Flight was delayed by one hour but overall fine. Was a bit scared due to bad reviews but it was all fine.
L'enregistrement des bagages ne s'est pas bien passé. Nous avions 6 bagages à main et un bagage en soute de 23 kg. L'employée en charge d'enregistrer nos bagages nous a déclaré qu'elle ne retrouvait pas l'achat de notre bagage en soute et nous demandait de payer une nouvelle fois le bagage en soute pour pouvoir l'enregistrer. Après près d'une heure de vérification, elle a fini par retrouver l'enregistrement de notre bagage et nous avons pu embarquer. Nous étions en famille avec 4 enfants dont une petite fille de 3 ans. L'attente était interminable. Aucune excuse de la part des employés de Tunisair
Bonjour jai eux de problème par rapport à ma réservation jai acheté un billet avec le bagage et qu'on jai arriver pour faire l'enregistrement ils m'ont dit que mon billet sont bagage merci de m'envoyer mon billet sur mon adresse mail par détail s'il vous plaît merci cordialement Madame
Hours of delay after boarding and closing the door before departure without enough explanation
Given the horrible reviews for Tunisair I was just hoping that I would get to Tunis and home. I did, with delay, but, for the price (about half the other options and the only direct flight) I considered that it was a good choice and actually quite high on the price-performance curve. While the cabin looks threadbare, the main problem for comfort was that the toilet doors did not properly close and one toilet was unavailable and remaining toilet became completely filthy ... I mean excrement all over the toilet. Really disgusting. The flight to Tunis was two hours late, and the schedule showed a departure one hour earlier than what turned out to be the actual scheduled departure, something I could only find out the day before the flight by continual checking. The return flight was just one hour late, I was delighted ! Fortunately, I had planned my activities to expect, in the best case, late flights, so I was happy with what I got. Staff are not bubbling over charm but I thought service was perfectly adequate, the food was perfectly eatable. Despite good marks for boarding, that is only once you get to the gate, in Tunis it is pretty bad, and despite being able to get an e-ticket they don't accept them at security so you have to wait in the line to check-in with baggage even if you don't have baggage. But that isn't Tunisair's fault.
Cons: "Plane is late No food or drinks at all only water Plane all full is was very bad flight and services"
