At the airport, terrible, I do not want to even remember it. It was too humiliating for a business class passenger.
Flight was ok but lack of communication cost me to literally beg to be put on another flight as connecting flight had departed
Couldn’t get boarding pass in SLC even with help from a redcoat, so had to find a desk in AMS to get boarding pass. Technical problems so not sure why. Very inconvenient. The KLM app is not as user friendly as most apps. Also had to wait almost an hour on the tarmac for a fuel truck, which caused us to miss a connecting bus in LUX.
First of all we couldn’t check in online, then we learn at the airport we were on stand by for KLM’s mistake of overbooking. The seats were not comfy at all. Our luggage got lost.
KLM remains a quality flag carrier airline which maintains its standards whilst all their competitors are lowering theirs.
The baggage drop-off in Stuttgart is bad: after online check-in you cannot use the automated baggage drop off as indicated on the website. You can use the terminals but have to cue to 1 of three open and slowly working counters to drop the bags. took about 45 minutes wait time.
Our first flight was delayed so we missed our connecting flight. However it was easy to book a later flight on their app.
Klm start boarding while somw air issue in the plan
I appreciate that KLM was proactive in informing me of the 2 hour delay which enabled me to replan my travel. It was a bit stressful not knowing whether my connection from Montreal to Ottawa was happening. But the ground and air crew did a good job at comforting and assuring me.
Cabin crew professional, polite and friendly, boarding was seemless, but come on KLM surely you can do better than a pack of cheesy biscuits as an inflight snack
Crew was dismissive. Snacks and refills not offered. Poor business class experience. Bed not comfortable compared to Emirates or BA.
Flight was delayed for 5 hours because crew didn’t have enough time to rest - this seems like it could have been avoided with better scheduling. Food was not good.
IAD with the archaic people movers is just a place to be avoided.
Overall, it was good. I was seating next to a wonderful lady and did not notice how time flew. Thanks
This is the best united airlines flight that I took. The crew was very friendly and the food was tasty!
It is clear that someone knew, and competent, is in charge of food at United Airlines at least for the international flights. I was flying in coach, but the choices of the dinner were excellent. Tasty, and appropriate size. I had the beef, which was a little bit like a shepherds pie, and it was good. Nothing comparable has been served on a United flight in years. It will not be confused with three star food, but it is very good for airline food. Even better was the breakfast choice between a cinnamon roll and a breakfast sandwich. I chose the breakfast sandwich which was absolutely delicious and which I would happily order again at my local Starbucks or Panera. It is clear that someone knew indifferent is in charge of the food and it’s about time.
Had one staff that was not pleasant. Seems they are stressed with too many people to care for.
I would have liked an opportunity to move to a different seat ( even would have checked in my hand luggage)as I had health issues where I didn't have to clamber over the passenger next to me to for toilet use/ movement [ She was a highly unpleasant neighbor to sit next to]. In addition, I found that my European phone plan had run out of data and so I was not receiving emails from yourselves on airport wifi to be able to check in online and verifications difficult as did not accept the ticket number I had. I asked for an extra blanket but was told there was none. Then I saw other passengers receiving them. I couldn't eat the food and asked for snacks : Stewardess said " on the way" but they did not bring. The best bit was the check in process in Lisbon. Very efficient. However, I did not understand why we had to collect our bags at Washington then go through customs again. It was not explained. I also with my leg and health issue had approximately mile walk to the gate ( which then changed) . There appeared to be no moving walkways or help provided.
The attendant were friendly. I suggest you have a medical attendant on board every flight so that in case someone is sick , he/she will help them.
We had a very long diversion and our food voucher didn’t work because the restaurants were closed
I think the extra charges for seating with no added advantage and the added charges for baggage are excessive compared to other airlines.
Experience was great overall. However, the connection time between my flights (1hr 15 mins) was too short. We had to get through security check and US immigration in that time, and I made it to the gate just as they were announcing it was about to close. Flights with such a short connection time should maybe not be offered for purchase, or an advance alert would be helpful. Other than that the in-flight experience was excellent, especially the food. Many thanks!
The seats needs to be comfortables, at least please add more padding to the seats.
Incredible service. Incredible entertainment. I felt like they just kept serving us something new avery hour. My wife and I both had a joyous flight.
They specifically asked about my flight from bordeaux to Dublin, which was fine. A little lacking but for a 1 and a half hour flight - it was more than enough. I transferred at Dublin and went to Newark. And wow that flight was incredible.
I was so grateful for the kindness of the crew. They made a long trip very pleasant. Food was delicious. Many movie options
My flight from Dublin was delayed two hours which ment that I missed my connecting flight to Phoenix. American Airlines provided a hotel room and rebooked my flight for 7:30 AM the next day. I didn't get to the room until 11 pm and I had to be at the airport the next day by 5 AM. The airlines did their best but the schedule was challenging for an 81 year old.
Fast and sensible boarding was absolutely amazing. But extortionate wifi and seats that barely moved, making me unable to sleep, didn't do a lot of favors.
Dinner was fabulous. Would have enjoyed a wine with it. None offered... for sale??? Breakfast was disappointing but adequate amount of food.
The actual flight experience was great. The handling of my luggage was terrible. First, I had to check in at the airport and wasn’t able to check in online because they booked me with a partner carrier in the U.S. that was incredibly inconvenient. I was also told that I would have to check in again with the partner airline in the U.S., also incredibly inconvenient at a large airport. Second, when I was at the counter, they did not tell me my carryon was too big. I only found that out when I tried to board the plane. I don’t know that it actually was too big though. It’s a standard sized carry on that I’ve never had issue with on any planes before. They assured me my bag would be checked all the way to my final destination. Due to flight from Paris to Dublin being delayed, I was rebooked on a different transatlantic flight to the U.S., which resulted in a different connecting flight to my final destination. My luggage was rerouted and I was assured it would be at my final destination. When I got to Newark, I received multiple phone calls alerting me that my bag was across the airport at a different terminal and that I needed to go pick it up near the baggage carousels. In the Newark airport, every terminal has its own security checkpoint. Leaving any terminal and entering another one requires a security check. At this point, I had to go through security in Paris, then again for US customs and pre-clearance at Dublin, then a third time when I had to change terminals at Newark for my connecting flight home. It was at this point I received the call that I needed to retrieve my bag from literally the opposite end of the airport and go through security A FOURTH TIME. These was no notification that I needed to do this before I went to the gate for my final flight. It took me an hour to go do all this, after I had already been traveling for 19 hours while sick and should have been home already were it not for the delay of my original flight. I retrieved the bag. My carryon became a carryon again and fit just fine on the last plane, by the way. I would also like to mention that my TSA flight information was not included on my ticket, so once again, I had to go to the airline counter to get my ticket corrected and reprinted before I could go through security and try to save myself time. Finally, I have celiac disease and prefer not to eat meat. There was literally no food I could eat on the seven and a half hour flight across the Atlantic. When the flight attendant woke me up for dinner (I would have preferred to sleep), I asked if there were any gluten free options. I was told the only option was chicken. I begrudgingly accepted because it was the only option, hoping anything else in the meal could be eaten. There was plain rice and a few green beans. The side dish was teriyaki vegetables containing gluten. There was a piece of bread, containing gluten. There was a custard, containing gluten. I could eat literally nothing except the very small amount of rice and green beans. When the same flight attendant came around again, while I was sleeping, a sandwich was placed in front of me, again food I could not eat. And this was after I got to the flight to find that my newly assigned seat on my transatlantic flight had been given to someone else! It’s like nobody communicates over there. This airline has the worst logistics of any airline I have ever been on, and I travel frequently. Dear Aer Lingus, DO BETTER.
Luggage transfer in Chicago was not performed in time. I received my luggage at my destination two days later.
Give yourself over 2+ hours layover because if flight is slighlty delayed and you miss your connection, Lufthansa will do nothing for you
We would have missed our connection from Munich to Boston but we had a van outside the plan that wisked us to our terminal. Much appreciated and we didn’t even realize that Lufthansa had done this until the announcement on disembarkation. Well organized airline! Will definitely fly Lufthansa again!!!
Everything went well. I will fly with Lufthansa again. And use Kayak whenever I book flights
Bought a seat in a flight that got changed out so ended up paying for a seat I would have had if I hadn't paid.
Food was poor quality and the screens for entertainment didn’t work properly
Food was much better than my outbound flight. On-time. Good service. I had a problem with my entertainment screen, but the attendant fixed it promptly.
I think they overbooked Frankfurt to New York and bumped me off. This changed my return travel I arrived home about 4 hours late. Almost 24 total travel time Totally unacceptable Would not travel with United
We left 1.5 hours late therefore missing my connection. The airline didn’t give vouchers.
Food could have something without dairy, I couldn't eat anything. Tv for both seats was malfunctioning. They have one bottle of ginger ale for entire plane.... and I paid extra for these seats...very disappointed
Crew service was poor and very little difference between premium economy and economy. Disappointed.
My bags never made it on the flight and I now have to wait for them to arrive hopefully tomorrow. You can’t even track your bags in the app to see where they are since they didn’t arrive. You have to file a claim and then wait for them to inform you when you will receive your bag. We were already delayed for an hour due to baggage so I don’t understand how my bag didn’t make the flight.
One of the worst experience given the middle seat even asked for the change no one honored,boarded at the end and overall one of the worst experience
It was good although our flight to the UK was cancelled and rescheduled for two days later. This was after we were already seated on the plane. We missed the first leg of our trip. BA did put us up at a hotel and paid for our meals but we lost our hotel costs in Glasgow.
The crew was very nice and pleasant. We were very reluctant to book our flight with British Airlines because we had bad experience with their flight attendants on the previous trips, they were rude and not helpful.
I am a 25+ years American Airlines member. British Airways is simply above and beyond in every customer satisfaction category.
The seat pads are past there sell by date now and are uncomfotable. Also, with screens in the back of the seat, the seats shouldnt be able to recline as this puts rhe screen in your face.
1. The website didn’t allow me to checkin from London as I have Bangladesh passport with US permanent resident card. This pushed me to sit with my wife in the middle of two aisle seats, terrible experience! 2. BA should allow within 24 hours to checkin with other passport holders to choose better seats. A 2nd verification of travel documents can be done at the desk about immigration status. 3. Food options were poor for vegetarian passengers, try to introduce healthy options avoiding carb-dense food ingredients.
Cabin crew lovely and accommodating and I'll always fly BA in the future
It was perfect. The service was exceptional. I would never want to cross the Atlantic in anyone else's sardine tins.
