Had a great flight. Delayed takeoff, but comfortable. Snacks were good.

Pretty seamless, just a tad bit late in taking off and landing.

after landing, we stay 2 hours on the taxi way before reaching the gate The airline and the crew were good though

My flight to Chicago left and landed early. My return flight left two minutes late and arrived 2 minutes late. My seat selections were ideal! There were no snacks going to Chicago and no snacks on the return trip. There are no charging outlets on board.

Gate agents were informative and friendly… flight attendants were as well. Had a fun time chatting about their legacy AirTran experiences as a former fan of the airline that Southwest acquired.

The fluidity of the entire process of boarding the plane the flight attendants attentiveness. The flight attendants also provided coloring books for my kids who loved it.

It good. Just not that plane didn’t have power outlets to charge devices etc.

We stood on the tarmac for over an hour. Very bad turbulence the whole ride. Very to get to the restroom.

Healthier snack would be much appreciated. Love traveling on Southwest!

Left on time and arrived early. Brand new plane and no parts missing. Comfortable seats. The actual Captain spoke prior to the flight and reassured everyone about safety. Crew was so nice and fun. Perfect flight!

Flight from Savannah arrived very late and we did not take off till 2 hours after scheduled departure!

My flight was canceled, and instead of rebooking me on a non-stop first-class flight for the same day, which I originally had, Delta rebooked me on a one-stop flight for the following day. When I checked the Delta app, I noticed that there were available flights for both the same day and the next day. I believe this indicates poor management on their part.

So terrible. My flight was 4 hours delayed and we weren't notified til last second within an hour of boarding. WE had to sit on the plane for 4 hours. ridiculous.

The CRJ-900 was clean but the overhead air vents were broken in our First Class row, making the cabin very hot until about 30 mins into the flight. The flight attendants were both extremely apologetic and accommodating though so that is why I rated the flight as very good. They checked on us many times and truly showed they cared. The snacks for an hour and a half flight could be better. Would be nice if there was a small plated meal over convenient store snacks. WiFi also was not working. And it would be nice if Delta had adjustable headrests on these planes.

Horrible. Faucet in sink not working, wifi not working. Didn’t bring food or snacks

Gate agent showed up 20 minutes before boarding and was not at all friendly. Had to take this flight due to the one on the day before being cancelled and any later options were already full with long standby lists. Despite having paid for Delta Comfort seats, Delta did not allow me (or anyone) to choose their seat. The agent assigned them for everyone just prior to boarding. Self seat selection was allowed on the original flight. Flight staff was great - very friendly.

Five hour delays every hour, I wish it were all at once

Left /arrived on time. Decent seat space. Like the wifi/plugs and entertainment. Windows and tray table were kinda gross. Attendants didn't start snack service til 40mins before landing. Two rows before us, captain came on to say there's turbulence and recalled staff to seats. So, no drink/snack. Later, attendants didn't stop to see if we had trash nor even look our way. Felt invisible! Almost all pilot announcements were not only unintelligible, but so quiet. We had no idea what she said.

Gate agent was unhelpful for handicapped boarding. Flight attendant seemed untrained.

Very easy to use and convenient, you can perform any action within the same portal

Uncomfortable seats, spotty WiFi, only Biscoff for snack (no one likes those).

boarding announcements werent clear/loud. Tired of those cookies. Of the 3 staff/attendants, 1 was good and the other 2 were mediocre.

Long delays to board due to mechanical issues with plane.

Boarding was awful - no order, people cutting in line, completely chaotic Planes are very old and uncomfortable. Noticeable difference between Delta and United on same route.

This flight moved Gates several times in a short time period, from B to C, which required a substantial walk or rail ride. Then the flight was delayed more than 2 hours and the food was subpar compared to other flights.

Significant delays on my trip to Chicago and my trip back to NY

Terrible steward... Plane was quite empty... I asked to move "back" in the plane and the steward said no... Unnecessary power trip of mediocre people.

It was really a terrific experience both going and returning on AA. Staff and crew were professional.

Flight was fine, but not having WiFi was a major negative

Everything was excellent and I enjoyed myself. Thank for everything
