Great staff. Clean plane, but we were delayed for more than an hour due to maintenance issues and had to board another plane.

Late plane. Only one crew on the ground so we b had to wait for Denver flight to come in, board, and depart. At 78 yrs of age I was not pleased trying to get my connection. What really made me angry was the notification you sent me to hurry up or I would miss my connection. Why tell me to hurry up when you got me in late. It was not a good way of treating customers.

A long delay. Don't travel late in the day.

The seat was comfortable. There was a lot of turbulence. If it weren't for that,it would have been okay.

It was great, I’m very grateful for the pilots and crew flight attendants for everything.

Flight was great. Efficient boarding. Short flight. Early arrival. Friendly flight crew. The entertainment system did not work well. Could not access it until the aircraft reached 10K feet or more. Lots of glitches.

No food service almost missed because of first flight delays

It was fine. The flight attendant appeared to be in a bad mood but everything was fine.

I am not an electronic savy. I don't know how to maneuver the APPS for services. Why can't I just buy food without the apps.

We waited too long to get water while the plane was on the Tarmac awaiting de-icing.
