It is not a good experience with Copa Airlines: flight delay, luggage delay, etc.
We where skipped for this flight will not head to Panama until tonight..
Orderly boarding, priority for platinum members, courtesy drinks from business class even when we were seating in economy.
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 Their aircraft was super old, outdated, no entertainment, with nearly no onboard food.
Very strict carry on rules meant most of the plane had to gate check their luggage. As is often the case had things that were broken because of this, but I appreciated not being charged to gate check. Otherwise good flight and great crew once on the plane
I liked the meatloaf the chicken was awful but the plane was on time and got there and the staff was nice.
The flight was delayed twice and I could not speak with anyone at the airport about checking in. The phone number to Copa - the customer service agents were polite. They are just limited at helping because they are not at the airport
Great! The airline is very spacious and the crow was good.
the planes are not modern there are no phone chargers
As usual, the flight with normal legroom was not very comfortable, but the second flight was much better because we had paid for extra legroom. It was very nice to check our bags without an extra fee.
Abysmal overall. Delayed flight caused me to get in with an only 9 minute connection. No help from flight attendants or gate agents to try to make the connection. Second flight left 5 minutes early despite not having at least 10 people on it, including me. Rebooked 24 hours later. I asked four separate delta agents how to ensure my bag would get on the rebooked flight and all assured me it would be there. Landing in Rio right now, 24 hours late, and just got an alert that my bag didn’t make it. Horrible overall experience.
I booked a flight through Kayak to Brazil I have traveled to Brazil several times before Kayak Delta or LATAM never mentioned during the booking or in the pre flight process that the visa requirements to visit Brazil have changed earlier this year. I was unaware of this change and as such never got a visa and was unable to fly from JFK to Sao Paulo Add to this that Delta allowed me to fly from Boston to JFK which they should not have as I didn’t have a visa. It has been a terrible experience and a huge loss of money
Really bad experience – delayed for 6 hours without any notice, no food or drinks provided, and stuck in the horrible Cartagena airport.
4 hours delay, awful food and missed all my connections because of the delay to be rebooks for a flight 10 hrs later back home and never actually make it to my final destination
On time. At least they offer a drink and a small snack. Plane was clean
Airline lost my luggage and after 20 days it has not been returned nor refunded any money.
It was confusing because I got a notification that my gate was changed when in reality it wasn’t
Awful, horrible customer service. Flight got delayed and had to spend y the night in Bogota as a result. Very poor
the flight from Boston to Curitiba was on time actually 30 minutes earlier. latam was not able to unload the luggage for custom checkup in Sao Paulo ii took two and half hours . i missed the flight to Curitiba spend the night in hotel and then flying in the morning to Curitiba
Very unprofessional staff in the checking and boarding. There was no space for my carry-on bag, which is understandable for a full flight. However, the rudeness in answering my questions about my bag were unnecessary. Shaming and threatening a passenger to be left behind was something I had never experienced (I am 57 years old and a Skymiles member) before. At a minimum, the boarding staff (Krystal Mejia and her manager Dee) should undergo further training on cultural sensitivity and professional skills on speaking with passengers. Krystal, just because I have dark hair and “look Latina” does not mean I can speak Spanish. Your assumption and threatening words until the very ending of my boarding (door of the airplane) were not only unnecessary and stressful but something that a passenger should not experience before boarding.
I tried to check in beforehand from Ireland. The Jet Blue website sent me to the Aer Lingus website and vice versa. I tried to get a boarding pass at Dublin Airport as well, but they said they couldn't help me either. I had to wait until I arrived at the gate in Boston to secure a boarding pass...it was a bit nerve wracking.
The crew was not nice this time. I asked for a drink one time and the girl didn’t say anything to me and just got me the hot drink while walking super fast to the back. We were sitting in the back and she wasn’t doing anything except socializing. She was upset I asked for something and she had to do her job. I also didn’t fully have it in my hands when she handed it to me so it was dangerous. She was abrupt and rude. She wouldn’t allow for people to spread out like previous flights we had been on if they were empty, and there were empty rows. It was strange and she enjoyed being angry at us.
Left a bit late duee to a technical issue, but got in early
Wonderful aircraft Crew was tired,but great considering On time No complaints
Your Jet Blue representative at the check in desk in Boston on Sunday morning, October 13, was unkind and unhelpful. For that reason alone I will avoid JetBlue airlines in the future. No food or beverage on the flight due to turbulence (not your fault). However I paid extra to sit in the upgraded section in the front and did not benefit from most amenities.
Multiple delays, poor communication, dismissive staff, chaotic boarding, broken seat back entertainment. Not really much to like.
There was more leg room in what was most likely a basic assigned seat (row 25) then on other airlines I've flown lately.
My overall experience with JetBlue was pretty poor and disappointing. We originally booked a DIRECT flight home from Boston on 9/28 at 8:00pm even though it cost more than the non direct flights. With no reason other than "unforeseen circumstances", our flight home Monday was cancelled and we were rebooked on a 7:00am flight on 9/29 with a layover in JFK. We were traveling with sick kids coming home from a funeral of a loved one and needed to be at work on Tuesday so paying extra for a flight home Monday was something we had to do. The original direct flights were considerably more expensive than the non direct flights- so I don't understand how Jetblue did absolutely NOTHING to compensate or right their mistake. We will not be booking with them in the future because they are not reliable and they showed no remorse nor did they make any attempt to make things right. The least they could have done was credit the difference in cost of flight because I know our original flights cost more than the one we were rebooked on. Once again- we will not be flying with them in the future and will advise family and friends to be aware of the risk you run when giving them your business. Do better.
Terrible. We originally booked a direct flight from BOS to MCO on 9/28 at 8:00pm and it was cancelled due to unforeseen circumstances and the flight we were rebooked on was on 9/29 at 7:00am with a layover in JFK. We were traveling with sick kids so leaving at such an early hour was absolutely miserable, and on top of that we all missed work which we couldn’t afford. On top of that- we paid a fortune for our flights to be direct without a layover and the flights with layovers were cheaper so at the very minimum we should have been refunded the difference. With absolutely no explanation or sympathy from JetBlue- we will avoid using them in the future due to the fact they aren’t reliable nor do they correct their mistakes.
Experience with JetBlue was poor. We were originally suppose to fly home on a direct flight on Monday the 28th at 8:00pm and we it was canceled due to “unforeseen circumstances” and we were rebooked on a 7am flight on Tuesday the 29th with a layover in JFK. Traveling with sick kids and waking up at an ungodly hour was miserable, and not only that it caused all of us to miss work. We intentionally flew our Monday on a direct flight and the direct flight was far more than the non direct flights on any given day. There was no compensation provided let alone a reasonable explanation. When you are charging people those type of prices for domestic same coast flights- you should be at least refunding the cost difference of the flights if you are rebooking them on a cheaper flight. I will never fly JetBlue again because they are unreliable and don’t correct their mistakes.
Boston sucks. Everything after 4p is delayed. AA switched planes on us so we ended up being 1.5 hours late (plus the delay at Logan). Not sure why the airline says it is on time until 1 h before the flight and then it becomes a rolling delay when they knew the incoming flight was arriving after our scheduled departure time. The crew was great as were the gate agent and ground crew. Just operations that sucked.
Flight was 2 hr late but at least I was upgraded to first class
I've flown American several times this summer and I have yet to get a flight that leaves on time. However, a delay is better than a cancel. So far I have had four canceled flights and two delayed flights
The flight was delayed in 30 minute increments for a total of 4 hours and 30 minute delay. All other flights to Chicago left on time except for this one flight. If there is an issue with the inbound flight, just let customers know so they can find another flight right away, Once we got on the plane there was another 30 minute delay taking off at 10:30 at night which is very unusual that a flight wouldn't be ready to take off
They have overselled the ticket and kicked me out from boarding, All my Plans were collapsed and important network meeting missed.also I booked direct flight i have to go through an 1 stop and it was frustrated.
Horrific. We were delayed due a flight attendant stuck in traffic en route to the airport. Over 100 people were then stuck in Charolette. Then I ran to make my layover only to find that my connection didn’t have a plane anymore. Waited 2.5 hours without any updates. On the flight we had to beg for even a pretzel option.
Because I bought my ticket from Underpricer, I could not check in online. I could only check in at the airport and that was deeply frustrating because I had to arrive very early. The flight also departed 45 min late and passengers were given no explanations about why we were delayed. I was worried I would miss my connecting flight. Once on board, however, the flight was fine.
Terrible boarding and first class experience. Nice staff but overall disorganized, dirty plane.
The flight was delayed significantly and we sat on runway after landing for awhile. Best thing was the flight attendant, Jenny, in first class, who was very professional and attentive. She was excellent - the rest of the flight was not.
Early departure meant on time arrival. Only real problem was free internet had issues, although chatting with the internet help desk (you can do this via aainflight.com) got the issue resolved.
Seating was tight. Seats don't recline. Initial flight was cancelled. Lost two days of vacation.
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
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.
Last seat of Bussines Class it does recline but passenger seating behind kept pushing since they did not have space once my seat was reclined
I like the crew they're very friendly. I don't like. on five hour flight they not offered snacks. Any drink. Not even coffee
This low cost airline looks and fells more like a local bus. In a 6 hour flight not being able to recline a seat is torture. The only thing available with no charge is a glass of water provided by, mostly, rude staff. Our luggage didn’t arrive
Flew with our two children. Paid $380 to check two bags (one was overweight). They then left the bags behind on Sunday, December 21st, with all our family’s clothes and family Christmas presents. When we arrived at our destination they told us the bags had not arrived, and they thought (but didn’t know) they were still in Boston, but that there’d be a flight the next day and the bags would arrive the next day. The next day we found out there was no flight, now we’re hoping we get our bags before we fly back out. Meanwhile, trying to get any engagement or accurate information is a waste of time. The folks at the call center are just gatekeepers, who can’t connect with any departments that actually do things to solve a problem. Getting information is made deliberately difficult. My biggest regret is that I’ve had a number of awful experiences with Avianca traveling between the US and Colombia, and still let myself get suckered into buying these tickets because the schedule was great. Never again.
Flight departure late. Got late in Colombia making us take a different flight next day. Avianca airport crew messed up my ticket so when a I got in Brazil I didn’t have a ticket for my destination. Had to buy a new ticket out of my pocket.
