The aircraft knew from advance that the entertainment was not going to be available but you can not even charge your phone/tablet. Food can be a bit more generous
My trouble was also with kayak. I put in to your search engine the dates, times, cabin and amount of luggage that was needed. When arriving at the airport we were charged $280 extra. I have booked thru Kayak for years. Never have I encountered such a mistake. The entertainment was below average. The food terrible. The check in outrageously slow and the complaints continue to add up!
Great customer service both on and off the airplane. Flight was very comfortable. Thank-you!
I had booked my wife and I on AR from BUE to MIA on January 10th and secured seats 6A and 6B. When I checked in AR claimed one ticket was booked for the 10th and one for the 11th. They forced me to by a new ticket and charged me an additional $2,400.00 USD. I want a refund. Rob Austin
I tried to add checked baggage through the website; the amount was charged, but the payment was not linked to my reservation. As a result, I had to pay again at the airport and only received a refund three weeks later, thanks to my bank’s intervention. The flight was delayed, and the boarding process was poorly organized. Several boarding groups were in the same line, which made boarding very uncomfortable. The food was acceptable, but the beverage service was limited. While drinks were available at the back of the plane, it would be better to offer more beverages during the meal service. On a positive note, the cabin crew was very kind and professional, and we arrived on time according to the revised schedule.
The check in staff were so friendly and accomodating. Loved it. very rarefly you find that in other airlines.
Boarding was uncomfortable. Groups weren't boarding in an orderly fashion because everyone was taking to buses together. It was 90 degrees, but there was no air-conditioning. We left 40 minutes late without explanation. Uncomfortable!
Outstanding service both from ground staff and onboard staff! Very helpful in making changes to our schedule when our trip ended sooner then expected
They changed the flight and the airport on both legs of my flight which made it impossible to actually make the connection from one airport to the other in time. However the customer service agent at the international airport was very kind and helpful getting me on a flight for the next morning.
We were delightfully surprised with the exceptional ground staff as well as flight staff. Both did an excellent job of making our trip enjoyable and hassle free!
Flight got delayed; had to go through security three times.
There should be a warning regarding the quality of the aircraft on the website as we reserve the tickets. There was no TV or any type of screen onboard. The wifi they offer is good for nothing. Traveling 9 hours straight with kids and no type of entetainment was horrible. I wish I had been informed prior so I could buy a ticket with another airline. The food was a joke too. A very tiny portion per passenger. They also charged $100 per checked bag. With United I used to pay $60. So, fair to say that I wont be flying Copa anymore. Their aircraft was super old, outdated, no entertainment, with nearly no onboard food.
The flight was good overall. Everything went smoothly, although the landing was a bit rough. Still, it was a pleasant experience
I always enjoy flying Copa. There are very few airlines where I can enjoy a comfortable sleep in-flight. The snacks weren't the best, but they sufficed. The in-flight entertainment was fantastic, and I crossed another movie off my watch list.
Some of the Air hostesses are not that friendly. Need improvement
Simply as follows:- First, there was no vegetarian option for the meal Second, only 2 washrooms for the entire economy class.
They were super friendly bumped me up to exit row free of charge, All flight legs were on time
Cops Airlines is fantastic! The level of care and professionalism provided by the entire crew was top rate.
the food served was an embarrassment. No connection for charging the cellphone... What a crappy airline.
The flighr attandants were very rude they ignored me didnt offer me anything to drink throughoit the 4 hour flight i feel i was targeted and ignored because i was a darkskin latino man.
Latam wouldn’t tell me how much checked luggage would until I was at the airport and they charged me the highest price possible. Besides that, it was okay.
We were not allowed to carry a bottle of water onto the 8 hour flight.
There was a mechanical issue with the plane that they had to work on before we could take off. That's fine, by all means, PLEASE make sure the mechanics are functioning properly. What was a problem was the fact that we sat on the tarmac for 4.5 hours without moving, without letting us off the plane, and without climate control and air running through the plane. There was no explanation as to what was going on; they just kept promising that it would be "15 minutes, then we are on our way." At one point, they even switched the entire crew out and told everyone we just needed to wait for new employees to show up. Then, as the 4 hours were not moving, an hour before the full refund, they made a big show about "the flight starting and the doors are locked, so you have to sit down." We didn't move for another 40 minutes; they were just trying to skirt around legalities that entitled us to restitution. When the flight finally was underway, the plane was gigantic but cramped in design, my entertainment screen kept freezing and glitching, and subtitles didn't work, and the crew was passive-aggressive. Terrible flight.
LATAM’s crews are fine, but God help you if you need any customer service. Their app and website never work, with error after error. Trying to solve anything over the phone is painful, and lastly, the boarding pass LATAM gave me to board the flight with Delta was invalid and I had to purchase an emergency one-way ticket at the last minute to get home.
I like this airline a lot no problems at all, except being forced to check a carry-on bag ., Overall very good airline
Latam may be the worst airline in the world, far worse than even the lowest of low cost airlines in the USA. I wasted hours trying to PAY THEM TO CHECK A BAG! Then they misled me at the terminal, sent me through the wrong security line, the list goes on and on... Just absolutely terrible in every way. Avoid at all costs.
Poor, the airline was not able to help me move flights.
Check in -- in business took over 30 mins as there was only one attendant. Boarding was also a mess. The seat was too narrow and was not working properly. Food was very bad and the entertainment very poor. Crew was very polite and helpful, in fairness.
Poor handling of carry on luggage. We had a 8 hour stop in Santiago, are over 70 and, in spite of paying full fare they wanted to send carry on to luggage hold. No empathy. We had to show that several group 4/5 passengers were not sending their carry ons before they finally let Is keep them. Very poor .
Really bad experience – delayed for 6 hours without any notice, no food or drinks provided, and stuck in the horrible Cartagena airport.
First of all, could be Kyak's fault he we couldn't for days check in on line via Kayak or Jet Smart. We can't get the app either. Luckily on LATAM I managed to get the WiFi and contact Jet smart via what's app. This was horrendous and the person was unhelpful to start with. But we explained and she managed to check us in as if she didn't we wouldn't have got on the flight as would've been too late to check in. At the gate they were checking everyone's bag for size. My bag was 1 cm over and they tried to charge me $255 soles to carry it on but was 225 to put it in the hold. We had to pay to put both bags in the hold adding £100 to the cost of the flight. We had to carry the bags as the jet smart sight doesn't allow us to add bags which would've cost us £13 each so £26 on booking instead of £100. Staff at the gate were rude to us and other passengers. I'm sure they were on commission to get money off passengers for the bags. The lady flight attendant was pleasant but over ruled buy this jumped up young guy when I asked if my partner could sit beside me. The plane was 1/3 full. Then he was rude most of the flight. Avoid jet smart at all costs! Worrying thing is we have a return journey with these shower of.... We have been on their site the past two days trying to add bags but site won't do anything. I think this is on purpose to get more money out of passengers. As I said avoid at all costs.
Terrible website. Does not work most of the time I tired using it to check in. Had to have someone from another country help me check in. Their customer service is the worst.
The crew was polite, the Captain specially was cool! But the onboard service was nonexistent: No entertainment, no food, no reclining seats. I know it is a low cost, but the cost of the ticket was not so low for just the transport service.
Was a good flight, no delays and good customer service.
Customer service is horrible. Our flight was at 9pm and we were at check in counter by 7pm. The crew strolls in at 7.30 without even an apology. We were suppose to get our boarding passes online but the website was not working at expected and the staff kept arguing with us saying that is not possible.
There was no entertainment but everyone just used their phones.
The app told us that carry on luggage was included but we were made to pay for it again at the check in counter, making it a very expensive flight. Not happy
I was charged 168 soles for kids stroller. We have travelled across the world and have never charged for the stroller. Horrific airlines and the staff was extremely rude. They wouldn’t let us board unless we pay the extra baggage cost. Never ever flying this airline and I would recommend the same for the others.
Avoid this airline. They are unprofessional. The captain left several passengers on ground due to covid restrictions which were never communicated. As a chilean, I am ashamed that this low level airline comes from my country. Remember this horrible brand and avoid it... Jetsmart
Horrible experience with Avianca, they delayed their flight and when we arrived to NYC, AVIANCA took 1 hr y 30 mins to park the airplane and all passenger get off the plane, it made me lost all my trains to get back home and I came back to my place at 3 am instead of 12 am. On the top of that their plane seat are so uncomfortable and is not enough space and killed my legs and knees, Avianca used to be good when it was a Colombian company, now after Brasilian company bought them, their service quality is bad and their flights are delayed and oversold.
It was delayed and I lost my connection flight to Cali and I missed my Mom's funeral and avianca lost my check in luggage
It was delayed and I lost my connection flight to Cali and I missed my Mom's funeral
I actually upgraded to the medium level of seats from basic and even doing that it may have been physically the most uncomfortable flight I have ever had. They packed everyone like is a train to death camp. It was a red eye so I hoped to get some sleep but it was physically impossible to find a comfortable way to rest. I met other folks on the same flight and they said the same thing. It was an utterly miserable flight and if I have any other options I will never fly with them again
only a bag of chips and a bottle of water in business class was served
Avianca has transitioned from full service legacy airline to "low cost" but has now became a strange hybrid (minimum leg space, started offering business class in domestic flights again, charges passenger for printing boarding pass, etc.). National and international coverage and destinations are really wide but service is not at its best
We found the chairs to be really uncomfortable. It’s also really unacceptable that no form of food or drink is included in a 6+ hour flight
Not good, tried to purchase a first class upgrade and they couldn’t get it done. Was super uncomfortable the whole time.
Deplaning was a mess, I sat in business (seats are horrible) and the front door had a problem so we had to deplane from the rear exit. The stairs were not tall enough to reach so there was a large step down from the plane to the top of the stairs.
Pros: we leave and arrive on time Cons: the most uncomfortable seats ever. You cant recline at all your seats. No entertainment No TVs flight attendants didn't provide even a glass of water. You have to go to back of the airplane and ask for one. I am Colombian and I remember seeing the flight attendants very neat, elegants which is or was a staple of Avianca.it was one with tennis shoes, no male up, the hair was messy... that was really odd.
