Cons: "Nothing... great flight, uncrowded flight, plenty of extra seats to stretch out. Seat were very comfy and spacious which I loved even got a full can of soda unlike the usual half a cup and done lol. Would definitely fly Jet Blue again and prefer also. Way better than the other carriers."

Pros: "MINT CLASS is amazing"
Pros: "crew was great."
Cons: "flight was 3 hours late with lame excuse. tray tables disgusting. felt unclean. cookies tasted gross. pa system not working. live flight not working either"
Pros: "Missed my connection"
Cons: "Making it to Charlotte"
Pros: "Flight delayed by weather...attendant at gate did a great job with updates ...brought everyone snacks and drinks...very nice!"

Pros: "Yes"
Cons: "Free earphones for the TV"
Pros: "Not too full of a flight"
Cons: "It was delayed 3 hours"
Pros: "Seats ok. Crew was great!"
Pros: "The crew was pretty good. We were told in Raleigh they needed a few bags to be checked but could be picked up at the jetway when we landed in Boston. However, when we got to Boston, we were told 2 different locations. Very confusing."
Cons: "More correct information"
Pros: "Sleeping in"
Cons: "Sleeping in longer"
Pros: "Crew was very nice."
Cons: "Tv did not work on a 4 hour 40 minute flight."
Pros: "Smooth ride great service"
Pros: "Crew was nice. legroom seemed a little better than other domestic flights."
Cons: "You have to pay extra to sit in the exit row and there was no one in the entire row. Isn’t that a safery issue? Also, what really made me mad, instead of printing our boarding passes at the kiosk we went to a person (husbend had questions about Precheck) and she made us buy return tickets right then, on JetBlue. We had not decided on our return and wanted to leave it open. Can she do that? If not, I would like my money back."
Pros: "Seats are very comfortable"
Cons: "The flight is so much delayed. The flight attendent seemed not happy about me with a two year old, which makes traveling with a kid so unpleasant. When my kid asked to go to restroom, it seemed that we’re troulesome. My mom missed the water when they gave out drinks, but they did not come back for us. When I went to the back to ask for my mom, they said they’re cleaning up already."
Pros: "Friendly staff and a smooth takeoff and landing. All I could ask for. This was the 1st time that I flew JetBlue and I was impressed."
Cons: "The middle seat but that was probably my fault."
Pros: "Costumer Service at RDU was helpful and friendly, very different from costumer service at BOS"
Cons: "Costumer service at BOS didn’t do anything to help me locate my bags or to make my flight less stressful. They actually said to me that it wasn’t their problem that my baggage was lost, but that LATAM lose it and that they wouldn’t do anything about it."
Pros: "I've been flying budget airlines for so long that I was almost shocked to fly an airline that actually cares about its passengers! I kid you not, when they offered coffee to all passengers, I was so sure they would charge us I turned it down. Then, I noticed no one else was paying for it. The next time free snacks and drinks came around, I made sure to grab some! I also appreciated the few extra inches of leg room in every row. Being 6'3", not many planes are designed with your comfort in mind. I fit fairly comfortably in a non-emergency row seat. Last time I flew to Baltimore for work, I had a terrible experience with a different airline. It was $200 less expensive than most airlines, but I ended up paying more in baggage fees and seats. It was only a 1 hour flight and My boss said, "Cheap things usually cost you more, in money, time, and emotion" and nothing has been truer. I always assumed that flights were always unpleasant experiences. Now, I know better."
Cons: "The seats, while having more than average leg room, still weren't very comfortable. Not that I'm expecting a luxury experience while flying economy, but I felt as though the headrest was farther back than average. I can usually fall asleep on a plane and wake up without neck pain, but I really struggled to even figure out a relaxing position this time around. I also did not know that JetBlue did not serve meals on cross-country flights. Or, on any flights for that matter. Had I known, I probably would've picked up a breakfast sandwich before boarding."
Pros: "On time. Courteous staff."
Pros: "I enjoyed the comfort once boarded and flight attendants warm welcome"
Cons: "Our flight was 3 hours late. Was supposed to leave at 10pm and left at 1:13 am!! Customer service at jetblue kept lying about the aircrafts whereabouts and crew. They barely gave us updates, and at one point once everyone started asking questions and getting upset, they disappeared from the desk for an hour at least. The crew was late, there was no food, customer service had quite an inappropriate attitude, and tvs on the plane barely worked,"
Pros: "Unimpressed!! Flight delayed for 2 hours and lost my bags. 2 days later, my bag has not arrived. Apparently it is on the way. Not sure when it will get here."
Pros: "Friendly crew"
Cons: "Flight was delayed 2 hours and I never received notification. I got to the airport for a 4:10 flight to find out it was delayed until 6:15 and we didn’t board until after 6:30. Poor communication to passengers. Once on the plane the headphone jack didn’t work because something was lodged inside of it."
Cons: "Long lines for security clearance."
Pros: "The crew was courteous and friendly and did a good job of arriving at the destination on time."
Cons: "The flight left the gate 30 minutes late, but there was no notice of the delay beforehand. It's always nice to be notified if I'm going to be delayed and what the reason is behind the delay. Being left in the dark about delays is always discouraging...whether I'm at the doctor's office or at the airport. That being said, the crew hustled and got us to the gate for an on time arrival."
Pros: "movies and music were ok"
Cons: "Takeoff was delayed by a connection from Philly. We were supposed to arrive at 11:00 pm got there at 12:30 am. Luggage was put on a different plane and didn't arrive at RDU until 1:30 am."
Pros: "On-Time, friendly staff. Helpful staff via phone contact to change flight due to weather."
Cons: "App wouldn't let me access new boarding pass after change"
Pros: "Quick, efficient processing at the airport."
Cons: "The seating is very tight, even though I am only 5'4" it was too close. I felt sorry for the young man next to me who was approx 6' and very uncomfortable. For health purposes, foot rests should be installed to elevate the feet off the floor and offer differing positions help reduce the possibility of forming blood clots during flights."
Pros: "Very good flight, Love the size of plane and the comfortable seat, the TV's on the back of the seats were great."
Pros: "The crew was great. The flight attendants were awsome. Genuine smiles and polite and did Wonderful. I had plenty of room and the plane appeared to be pretty clean."
Cons: "Let me preface that I have children and grandchildren of my own. There was a family of 3 behind me, 2 adults and a child under 1. The baby was fussy which was no problem. I just put on my headphones. I understand this happens and sympathize with the parents. However, they allowed this child to constantly kick my seat through the flight which was annoying and unfortunate. There were empty seats in front of me but I didn't want to offend anyone by asking to move. :("
Pros: "Crew and flights are very good"
Cons: "our Baggage is mishandled and some of the items inside are damaged and lost couple checked in baggage"
Cons: "Flight delayed and changed gate"
Pros: "Plane departed early and arrived 40 minutes early. Well done"
Cons: "Prefer BLUE Chips rather than cheese x AND usually they call for VETERANS to board before the start of general boarding. This is the first time Jet Blue DID NOT extend that courtesy"
Pros: "WIFI and condition of the aircraft"
Cons: "None"
Pros: "Short flight. No entertainment and just snacks."
Cons: "Nothing"
Pros: "Seats were comfortable (an Airbus A320). Entertainment system adequate. Smooth flight."
Cons: "Two dogs in cabin. They were mostly well behaved. A group of six children loosely supervised by a couple of adults. The children were allowed to wreak havoc on the center section of the plane's cabin."
Pros: "the amenities - the TV, the snacks, the drinks (a full can of seltzer instead of a cup!) and actual flight attendants who chat with you and are positive overall. rare in flights these days! excellent experience."
Pros: "Staff on ground were extremely helpful and friendly. Baggage drop-off and check-in kiosk were expertly staffed."
Cons: "In-flight screen never goes blank. Need an off setting instead of constantly changing commercials."
Pros: "Perfect in time flights"
Cons: "Nothing"
Pros: "Understood there were thunderstorms up and down the northeast coast. But it is always helpful for the team at the gate to keep folks waiting there with 20 min delay here and there. I just got them on my phone."
Pros: "info was good"
Cons: "waiting for more then 2h and no offer for drinks or anything"
Pros: "Boarding, crew, bathrooms, entertainment, smoothness of flight, wifi"
Cons: "Always hope for more than water and pretzels, but those days are gone I guess."
Pros: "Keep it up"
Pros: "The plane arrived safely in DC."
Cons: "I didn't like that the flight was delayed but it's understandable."
Pros: "everything went very smooth for my teenage son (17) and his friend"
Pros: "The crew/staff at Jet Blue are friendly, professional and attentive."
Cons: "TV's in my row of 3 were out of order. They flashed on & off the whole trip. No way to block them out, except put on sunglasses, close one's eyes and try to fall asleep with the screaming kids. Screaming kids in the row across the aisle. Fact of life. It would be wonderful if we could view the age of passengers before we chose a seat. I don't expect that to happen."
Pros: "snacks, friendly staff"
Cons: "Our bags did not make the transfer, but helpful JetBlue staff at RDU. Have not gotten status update yet for luggage delivery even though plane should have arrived an hour ago. Boston airport security by gates E and C (when transfering from international flight after customs) very inefficient and also understaffed."
Cons: "Wouldn't let passengers spread out after boarding closed even though there were empty seats"
Cons: "the seats felt like stone"
Pros: "price"

Cons: "Value for the price."
Cons: "Please reduce your delays - again we took off with more than an hour delay and by definition you are responsible of that disagreement, you are the company I am paying for the service...."

Cons: "In flight service was disappointing."
Pros: "Smooth flight."
Cons: "Tight seat. Small space."
Cons: "N/A"

Pros: "wonderfu crew... very helpul`"
Cons: ".."
Pros: "Crew was great"
Cons: "Absolutely no entertainment for a flight that had way more people than my first one. Food options were horrible!"
Pros: "The airline staff ladies were so wonderful. They were super friendly, efficient, thorough, assited the elderly on the flight, and continuously cleaned the cabin. they helped people organize the bags in overhead ducts and always had a smile. They should be the standard for service on all flights. Excellent job."
Pros: "Crew"
Cons: "Food, cramped seating."
Pros: "Everything went great. Flight left a little late but was fine and only arrived a little late. I like the side wings on head rests really help."
Cons: "Seats are always hard on long flights."
Pros: "Crews were great."
Cons: "Flight delays coming and going. Happens a lot with Delta."
Cons: "Flight delayed by 2 hours- was just sitting in the plane for couple hours before it took away"
Pros: "Plane was on time."
Cons: "My seat assignment was in the last row of the plan when the plane was not full"
Pros: "Nothing"
Cons: "The fact my flight was delayed three times...First delta said it was technical(mechanical) issues then sis it was the weather then said it was mechanical issues due to the weather. There were no compensation of the inconvenience it cause the customers."
Cons: "insufficient overhead luggage space"
Pros: "The woman who helped us at the desk by the gate was possibly the single most helpful, kind Delta employee I’ve ever met. She wheeled me down the jetway and upgraded our seats. I wish I knew her name. She has very curly dark blonde hair and is petite."
Pros: "All the staff and flight crew we're really great and thoughtful. Helpful with finding overhead compartments on a full flight."
Cons: "Seats could be bigger, with more leg room. But we know that's not gonna happen."
Pros: "The staff. They were very helpful and polite!"
Cons: "We didn’t leave on time"
Pros: "gate staff were great"
Cons: "plane cabin staff looked overworked"
Pros: "Delta flights run one time and their fleet seems newer than most with comfortable seating. Having free movies in the seat back ahead of you is a big plus with a good selection of movies. Snacks are good and crew is always friendly and accommodating. We fly almost exclusively with Delta for the aforementioned reasons."
Cons: "Boarding is a hassle no matter the airline with few exceptions. You would think someone could figure and efficient method to get people on the planes. I suppose it could be the public that is the problem. Not a problem with Delta they run a good airline."
Pros: "the service in general very nice"
Pros: "Nice people. Very helpful."
Cons: "LOST MY BAG IN BOSTON BEFORE EVEN TAKING OFF!!!! Did not make it, and then won't deliver it when it makes it to Kathmandu! This is most distressing."
Pros: "Movies"
Cons: "Not supplying headphones Crew not to helpful, one unpolite Refreshments ridiculous"
Cons: "Missed our connection. Spent the night in Minneapolis. Luckily we had no urgent reason to get home to."
Pros: "Pilot almost barrel-rolled us climbing out of JFK, so if started well enough.... Ground assistance (wheel chair) left me with a badly bruised left big toe and I didn't think we'd ever get through the TSA. The pat-down I received was more like a sexual assault and I didn't even get a happy ending. We made it to RDU, so the exercise was a success, but it was a huge hassle."
Cons: "After reading the good things, you need more bad?"
Cons: "Jet airways sucks"
Cons: "The flight crew and staff were all great!"
Pros: "Free first checked bag, comfy seats"
Cons: "Would have liked more movie selection"
Pros: "The only positive of this leg is that it was less infuriating than the flight from RDU to Boston"
Cons: "Delta's partnership with Go Jet seriously compromises the legacy carrier's reputation. I am a Delta fan - although flexible enough to use other choices when necessary. I will no longer fly a Go Jet operated leg when other choices are available. For my trips to Boston, that means Jet Blue. Sorry Delta. I'll see you back on a true Delta route."
Cons: "delayed 2+ hours due to runway maintenance. You'd think those things would be better planned..."
Cons: "If you have to swap out planes, do it at night, not the morning of the flight! And tell the customers in advance, so they can get some sleep instead of hurrying to the airport for an "on time" flight that couldn't be flown because of an equipment problem."
Cons: "Not having a seat assignment until arriving at the gate."
Pros: "The food has REALLY improved!! GREAT CREW!"
Pros: "The entertainment system worked well and was able to keep my phone charged."
Cons: "It's very cramped seating. They started boarding by rows but then gave up. Crew are nice."
Pros: "Everything was decent, good entertainment, nice crew, etc."
Cons: "Nothing was bad."
Pros: "Nothing."
Cons: "Reservation. Checkin. Seating. Flight."
Pros: "Everything was great! It is however a mystery why the attendants find it hard to smile once in a while. They were all attentive which is more important than serving with a smile."
Pros: "The crew was friendly and boarding was easy."
Cons: "didn't provide snacks. They took a long time to retrieve the luggage that was checked at the gate."
Pros: "Easy no hassle check in and board."
Cons: "Absolutely nothing. Thank you!"
Pros: "Nothing"
Cons: "Flight status"
Pros: "This was the best plane I’ve ever been on. 737-800"
Pros: "Crew was OK"
Cons: "Seat was uncomfortable. There was no power outlet."
Pros: "First class, good food, quiet and comfortable"
Cons: "People traveling with "emotional support animals" should board LAST, not first"
Cons: "My tv didn’t work my WiFi didn’t work and no beverage service"
Pros: "My legs were sandwiched behind the seat in front of me. I hate that kind of seat spacing."
Pros: "Premium seating made a huge difference. Even though I am petite, I had a laptop, tablet and work that had to go under the seat in front of me, and I still had plenty of legroom."
Cons: "The seatback offered free streaming of AA entertainment on my tablet, but when I opened the browser and selected entertainment, the only option was to pay $9.95, so I just watched downloaded Netflix episodes. Plus the movies offered on AA streaming didn't look especially good."
Pros: "Seats were pretty comfortable. We were allowed to deplane down a staircase off the back of the plane. Very cool."
Cons: "N/A"
Pros: "Quick flight with no delays"
Cons: "Cramped seating."
Cons: "Overall good business class trip."
Cons: "PHX airport baggage claim was a mess. I had to wait 40 min to pick up the luggages."
Cons: "The gate attendant was very hard to understand and so I couldn’t hear what she was saying."
Pros: "Coffee"
Cons: "Only snacks available at 5am"
Cons: "that my flight got cancelled and wasn't going out until Saturday and I would have been less than 24 hrs in Boston"
Pros: "Good pilot/ crew to passenger interection. Great movie and entertainment selections."
Cons: "Turbulence but airline / pilot can't control that."
Pros: "Early arrival, plane not crowded"
Cons: "Onboard wifi not working so no inflight entertainment"
Pros: "Quick boarding"
Cons: "Very cold."
Pros: "They let me sleep"
Cons: "Not enough food options"
Pros: "Everything!!"
Cons: "None"
Pros: "Exit Row Seating"
Cons: "Delayed Flight 1 hour and 20 minutes"
Pros: "Early and easy"
Cons: "Was perfect"
Pros: "Flt attendent was really nice, friendly, courteous"
Cons: "Flt not on time. A/C did not work properly."
Pros: "Crew was nice and kept us updated."
Cons: "Flight arrived 20 minutes early and we still deboarded 20 minutes LATE. Wifi on flight is ten dollars instead of being free and they use plastic cups for the drinks which I am sure is not recycled."
Pros: "No complaints at all. Comfortable and on time."
Pros: "Smooth flight, not too bumpy. Also flew on time and landed early. Free beer"
Cons: "No internet. No tv screens. Jet blue is still better."
Pros: "Everything"
Pros: "On time, kept informed."
Cons: "We sat in Charlotte on the runway and had to run to our connection. The airport seems too small for the amount of traffic. We usually try to avoid Charlotte, but it was the only way to use frequent flyer miles"
Pros: "perfect"
Pros: "Good flight. Fairly comfortable flight. Attendants Were friendly and helpful."
Cons: "The movie was mediocre. Biscuit cookie was tasteless. Would prefer peanuts or pretzels."
Cons: "Not having boarding passes for the entire trip and not checking luggage thru to Charlotte was a hassle."
Pros: "Friendly attendants, plenty of coffee. Great service."
Pros: "The flight to Washington was fine. It was the flight back that I have issues with."
Cons: "My issue with flying back American is that...I didn't. They boarded us on the plane, moved down the tarmac, and then checked to see that we had a brake problem. They took our plane out of service (which I get, I would want brakes before takeoff), but then they never updated us on our status, until I physically went to the counter to ask an hour later. This is when they informed me that the flight was cancelled and we were rebooked on the 9pm flight (Mind you, this is 12:30p and I have a 2 year old with me). Luckily, I was able to book JetBlue and get home earlier (8:00pm)"
Pros: "We had to wait in the airplane upon arrival in La Guardia NY because wheelchair was not ready."
Pros: "The flight crew was professional, friendly and competent. They served the dinner as early in the flight as possible."
Cons: "This was a plane with central screens along the aisle, and the airline chose to broadcast a sci-fi action movie with almost constant flashing blue light, and violent action scenes. This was first of all a movie that many people, including me, would never choose to watch, but since it was on the aisle screens there was no getting away from it. It was also unsuitable for children, even without sound. But mainly, I object to the showing of any film in that situation - only aisle screens available, and on a night flight where most of the passengers are trying to sleep. I was awakened several times by the flashing lights. Other things: one of the bathrooms was not very clean, and the plane felt like the usual cattlecar, with just 3 seats on each side of the aisle, which is unusual and unpleasant for a transatlantic flight."
Pros: "The boarding was fast, the flight was faster than expected too, crew was very efficient and friendly."
Cons: "Space between seats too small, breakfast not good, too far inside the plane... Not so happy of the company rules : whatever you want to change, it will cost you. I suppose it's the way to keep flights cheap, but it's not fair to pay if when you arrive first, you have to pay to change for another seat... One free luggage of 23 kg when you cross the Atlantic is not enough..."
Pros: "on time"
Cons: "very cold"
Pros: "Good service from crew members"
Cons: "The flight was delayed for 2 hours"
Pros: "Direct Flight from LAX to RDU on a redeye."
Cons: "Delayed 5.5 hours at LAX. Boarded on time, waited at gate for 1.5 hours and then had to get off. During our delay waiting for a 1st Officer, the Captain times out. NO BACKUP CAPTAINS or 1st OFFICERS AT LAX? Then miraculously during our 3rd hour waiting for a Captain they discovered the 1st Officer was going to time out. So, rather than KNOW this while searching for a Captain, they waited for 3 hours and then had to find a 1st Officer to fill in. Result 2.5 more hours of delay. Even the Flight crew was in disbelief on this one. I think we should all get reimbursed and triple miles for this snafu. Not weather or mechanical - just poorly managed time -- BY A MAJOR AIRLINE - INEXCUSABLE!"
Pros: "Good crew Lucky to get better seats!"
Cons: "Poor Selection of entertainment not enough screen"
Cons: "Plane was delayed by 4 hours due to mechanical issues"
Cons: "American Airlines made me check my carry-on luggage, despite there being many open overhead compartments visible on the plane."
Pros: "Old school seat. No foot rest. Small plane to go coast to coast."
Cons: "UI on the entertainment system was horrible."
Pros: "The flight was on time and the crew are nice with the people"
Cons: "Too crowded not able to take my other luggage on board."
Pros: "There's nothing good about AA"
Cons: "One of the few things SouthWest, Alaska & United did was the proper queuing of people to get into the plane. AA is a free for all - those who follow regulations will fall behind. In this flight from Boston to LAX - I heard there were 80 Priority checking - are you kidding me. Group 1 does not help if I have 80 Priority seating and one family took 12 people in with one elderly. It's good to place Elderly and Military up front first - but to take the Whole entire family - that's not fair - you have 8 able bodies who should be in line with the rest of the crowd. Also who heard of 80 Priority check ins - normally, that's Group 1. Never flying AA unless I a desperate."
Pros: "the flight was on time coming and going"
Pros: "No delays, speedy boarding and off boarding."
Cons: "Nothing..it was great."
Pros: "All good - with every aspect of the trip."
Pros: "On time"
Pros: "Great crew made the trip pleasant."
Cons: "Aircraft had no WiFi, broken tray table and was pretty worn."
Pros: "The extra legroom for economy plus seats"
Cons: "The food was tiny and not good"
Cons: "Serving something substantial to eat would be nice."
Cons: "Flight was delayed 3x then cancelled. Had to take another flight to another airport to get home"
Pros: "I liked the ticket price."
Cons: "The seat was very narrow with absolutely minimal leg space, and a carry-on bag was not included in the fare."
Cons: "Still in Houston after spending the night. Flight from Boston to SFO WAS DELAYED SEVERAL TIMES and we would have missed our connection to HNL. So we were diverted to IAH, where we spent the night and will leave for HNL soon."
Cons: "Flight was delayed for an hour"
Pros: "Salmon and rice."
Cons: "Tvs not working and staff pretending as if they would fix it but actually the problem been going for a while with that airplane. The pizza should not only be a vegetarian one ."
Pros: "Non stop . Wife and I were given side by side seats"
Cons: "Last row"
Pros: "We paid to upgrade to economy plus for the extra leg room which made the flight more comfortable."
Cons: "Seats do not recline"
Pros: "Stroopwaffles"
Cons: "Turbulent"
Pros: "Crew ROCKED!"
Cons: "N/a"
Cons: "Boarding and disembarking were quite painful with an overcrowded plane and most passangers carrying on huge bags. What happened to shoulder bags only for carry on?"
Pros: "Refund was prompt"
Cons: "Flight was canceled"
Cons: "It was boiling hot on this flight."
Pros: "The crew from the ticket agents all the way up were great. The app for iPhone is great."
Cons: "I paid for 30 minutes of WiFi to download the United app on my iPad. I wanted to watch the movies/tv shows that were available to passengers. The WiFi was spotty and slow so I wasn’t able to load the app. Needless to say I was disappointed. I also was disappointed with the seating. I am an average size person and I felt very cramped in my seat. My shoulders and neck are killing me after a 2 hour flight. I know that I chose the economy seating but I don’t remember the seats being quite so narrow or the leg room being non existent."
Pros: "A very tall, male, flight attendant very wonderfully took me almost all the way from one end of the horseshoe to the other. I didn't catch his name but he was SO helpful."
Cons: "My flight was delayed by a few minutes and by the time we got to San Francisco, boarding was almost done for my connecting flight. I had to literally run from one end of the United terminals to the other... the entire horse shoe."
Cons: "I was there on time but was told my travel information was not on found even though I had the email confirmation and I lost all the money I paid."
Pros: "I loved being in economy plus! The meal was a wonderful surprise and after my tv screen was reset, I enjoyed 2 movies. Nice staff and service."
Cons: "Having to go to the back of the plane for the bathroom."
Pros: "Nothing"
Cons: "Crew, timing"
Pros: "Everything !"
Cons: "Took 3 days to get home got stuck in a hotel pregant stuck between airport and planes for 2 days makes me never want to fly again horrible experience"
Pros: "I liked the comfort that the plane gave. I also enjoyed the fact that the crew was all very friendly and kind."
Cons: "There was no music or free tv to watch on flight. There were delays due to high traffic."
Cons: "Our plane was constantly moved around prior to boarding and it was 2 hours late."
Cons: "Honestly, I am not a big fan of United right now and their airline policies. The flight was delayed for a hour. But at least I wasn't dragged off the plane or stuck in 95 degree weather for 5 hours."
Pros: "I originally self checked in for my delayed flight from Boston to Newark, but forgot to add TSA pre check. I went to ask an agent if she could add it, which she very kindly did. She also offered and put me on an earlier flight, which made my day! Thank you!"
Pros: "Efficient"
Cons: "Bumpy ride"
Cons: "The plane delay wasn't explained"
Pros: "Very polite clean nice great experience"
Pros: "The flight attendants were very nice."
Cons: "The seating was a little tight but overall it was a really good flight."
Pros: "It got me to where I was going."
Cons: "Had to pay extra for entertainment."
Pros: "Smooth flight and on time great customer service"
Cons: "Nothing"
Pros: "Rebooking me on another flight was uncomplicated."
Cons: "We had a long delay in Boston that resulted in missing my connection. I only had 10 minutes from gate to gate to make my connection. I understand that the FAA levies heavy fines on planes every minute that they are late. If so, how does it explain the delay in Boston of almost an hour? Needless to say, I was NOT happy."
Pros: "great crew!"
Pros: "Nice seats and lots of space"
Cons: "Rude crew on board"
Cons: "Small seats. Left late"
Pros: "Good crews."
Cons: "The UA439 flight from Boston to Chicago was delayed for almost 4-hours."
Pros: "Everything"
Cons: "NA"
Pros: "Clean newer plane"
Cons: "Entertainment Seating"
Pros: "The flight attendants were kind and attentative"
Cons: "Nothing stood out, no one went above and beyond. When boarding, a flight attendant said there was no room in the overhead for my carry on and told me I had to check in my bag. When I finally boarded the flight, there were many empty spaces that could have fit my carry on"
Pros: "Crew was helpful, professional & kind."
Cons: "Flight was delayed due to air traffic control issues so I only had 40 min layover to get to my next gate. Also when we arrived we were on the ground for a long time before we could pull up to gate to unload. I have a 3 yr old & 5 yr old & had to run to make it. We made it but luggage didn't. My first luggage was delivered quickly, the 2nd luggage arrived 3 days after we arrived home."
Cons: "Unreliable wifi."
Pros: "my flight was on time, and quick which is always helpful. I was able to sit at the seat I picked as well."
Cons: "Boarding took so long between all the kids which i think could have moved faster. The seats are always tight without much room. I'm pretty small so it doesn't affect me as much but I could tell some of the other travelers were uncomfortable. United has got to step up their snack game too. I got like a zesty ranch snack and I was happy I brought my own snacks."
Cons: "Delays, had to stay overnight in Chicago since we arrived 6 hours late"
Pros: "Did get last seat in business class!"
Cons: "The seat assigned online not valid because of change of equipment. Did result in upgrade to business. Very happy outcome."
Pros: "I like how easy it was to check luggage and boarding passes quick service"
Pros: "The flight was delayed but the gate staff and flight attendants did an excellent job helping us to get quickly to our connections"
Cons: "Did not like the delay that happened and we arrived 2 hours later. I was suppose to arrive 10:30 and I arrived 12:30. I wasn't able to go to work for that reason."
Cons: "Entertainment expensive"
Cons: "The first contact in the airport was quite rude when informing me that I had to measure my suitcase for size. I have carried this suitcase on on every airline for over 10 years....the size got smaller and United got $25.00....not happy. There was NO free movies, no access to TV, flight pattern....nothing and it could not be turned off. ONE cookie for a coast-to-coast flight. What happened to United?"
Pros: "Price. Crew was very polite."
Cons: "Late departing due to fueling"
Cons: "The doors did not close on time and the plane left at least 15 minutes late due to boarding delays."
Pros: "The service was POOR! This was my firsts time booking through this Airline and NO ONE told me about checking in 2 hrs early according to the phone phone rep or 45 minutes early according to the RUDE rep in the airport either way I arrived at the airport an hour before my flight and couldn’t board!"
Cons: "Frontier could take some time to better inform their first time customers of airport arrival times. I lost my seat AND was forced to book ANOTHER flight for 231.00 because Frontier didn’t think of their customer FIRST! Not to mention that was the ONLY flight leaving Boston until Wednesday"
Pros: "Friendly crew"
Pros: "Great flight for the price"
Cons: "Nothing- there were delays but not due to the airline"
Pros: "The crew was very good, the plane was clean. The seats seemed brand new and were relatively spacious."
Cons: "I was not made aware that the regular seats do not recline as they do on all other airlines I have ever traveled on. Since I was taking a long, red eye flight it was impossible to sleep. When I asked an attendant I was told that they are 'predesigned for your comfort'..."
Cons: "I couldn’t reschedule or move my flight."
Pros: "Quick and easy check in."
Cons: "With visibly injured foot , I struggled putting luggage in overhead bin and flight attendant stood behind me calling out but offered NO assistance. The same when unloading. Customer service should not be compromised for economic fares"
Pros: "Left ahead of schedule, got to destination ahead of schedule and the pilot and his staff were true professionals that kept us informed. I flew Frontier two weeks ago, same destination and had a 30 plus minute delay, this made up. AWESOME! Thanks Frontier."
Cons: "N/A"
Pros: "Fast boarding, luggage arrived and undamaged"
Cons: "We were delayed almost 4 hours with no explanation"
Pros: "The boarding process was organized and the plane was clean. The service was top notch. I was a little surprised about the price to check a bag ($40 each way). I must consider that when comparing rates in the future. I will definitely fly with them again."
Pros: "Easy check in and boarding"
Cons: "My neck pillow"
Pros: "Plane was new - very impressive!"
Cons: "Plane was delayed with no explanation, No free snacks - just free water, high baggage fees"
Pros: "AFlight was fast and crew was accomdating."
Cons: "I did not like the fact that I was padded down not once but twice at the age of 69 almost 70. Really did not know I was a threat to the airlines. I'm staying with my daughter at Ft.Bragg."
Pros: "We took off 10 min early and arrived 27 min early!!! Pilot’s 2 announcements were friendly and informative"
Cons: "It was hard to understand the flight attendant’s announcements"
Pros: "frontier was the best"
Pros: "Nothing"
Cons: "A la carte pricing! Metal chairs! Couldn't check in right away."
Pros: "The crew rushed from one other flight to ours and did a great job."
Cons: "I tried to take care of the carry on fee online, but found I had not done so at the checkin counter."
Cons: "Didn't like that I had to pay for my carry on luggage that wasn't told to me until the last minute. I feel that it should have been told to me when I booked the flight. Not happy about that at all."
Cons: "Flight delayed several hours. Seats don't recline. No food services unless you pay outrageous prices."
Pros: "NA"
Cons: "See above"
Pros: "In the boarding, counter lady help me by giving priority to check in after understanding I am a bit late"
Cons: "cabin crew was awful , especially one of them really need a psicological review about how to react and handle situations."
Pros: "Actually it all went very well it was my first time with that airline"
Cons: "The only trouble I had was fine in my seat the numbers were hard to see"
Pros: "I didn't miss my connection"
Cons: "The plane was sooooo hot. I was sweating the whole time"
Pros: "The crew was nice!"
Cons: "What Frontier doesn't tell you ahead of time is you have to pay for your seat and baggage both ways!!! This cost me an extra $82!!!! The seats weren't as comfortable as on a American flight either. I'll definitely use another airline next time!"
Pros: "There was not one positive thing that I can say about my experience"
Pros: "Good rate, comfortable seating, nice crew."
Cons: "Baggage prices"
Pros: "Frontier is similar to other budget airlines like Spirit where only a personal item comes free and the seats are a little tighter than usual. I thought they had good communication around the fee for carry ons (in the boarding process, they directed people to go online and pay the fee there if they'd already to avoid a higher fee at boarding). Staff were friendly and for a short flight (<2 hours) I felt it was perfectly comfortable, and I'm very happy with my decision given that the flight was <$100 and direct."
Cons: "No free snack/drink Pay for carry on"
Pros: "Crew was friendly and professional."
Cons: "Original ticket price was cheaper than other airlines, but after the $35 overhead baggage fee, the a la carte costs for a drink and snack, and the extra $120 for business class, we paid over $200 more per person per ticket that the past 4 times we've flown on Delta. Won't fly Frontier again."
Pros: "The cost value was AMAZING. It was super cheap."
Cons: "There wasn't any entertainment, but I mean, you get what you pay for, right?"
Pros: "Very professional"
Cons: "I didn't dislike anything"
Pros: "The crew was extremely pleasant and attentive. I did not try the food; however, I didn't hear any complaints from neighbors regarding their food purchases."
Cons: "The flight was almost an hour delayed, which appears to be a reoccurring issue. The seats are extremely uncomfortable and difficult to rest in. The option to reclimb would be nice to include in all seating, rather than the first 3 rows."
Pros: "Great price and more comfortable than some of the delta flights I've been on. I've read some complaints, but my personal experience did not reflect any of those issues. I will definitely fly with them on my next trip."
Cons: "It's pay to play. I can see where some people might get all snotty about not wanting to pay for every service, but, for people like myself, it's perfect. For a round trip to Orlando for $70... I don't mind sitting next to strangers in the middle seat, I'll survive not having snack and drink service, and I can keep to myself for 2 hours."
Pros: "Was stuck after hurricane Matthew- only flight that I don't think had a delay! Friendly staff, comfortable seating, plenty of storage space. Would definitely recommend again"
Cons: "We had to wait at the gate for 30 min before take off!"
Pros: "Nothing"
Cons: "The flight ran 4 hours late, no apologies from the staff. The staff is rude and not helpful. Took 2 hours to get the luggage, since they were running behind with all other flights. Not flying frontier again, ever."
Pros: "The price was cheap. I say cheap and not affordable because of the negative."
Cons: "The flight was an hour and a half late so I had to cancel plans because I ended up getting home too late. The seats were super uncomfortable. What entertainment and what food??"
Pros: "The staff was surprisingly welcoming for a budget airline. Everything went very smoothely and both my flights on this round trip arrived early. Well done!"
Cons: "Don't like that you have to pay for any baggage other than a personal item."
Pros: "I loved that we left on time and boarding the plane was not a hassle and the crew was welcoming"
Pros: "not a hitch!"
Cons: "had to pay $40. to carryon suitcase"
Pros: "captain & flight crew were awesome!!!! i recommend this airline anytime. very smooth flight!"
Cons: "Frontier has so many hidden fees!"
Cons: "WHERE WAS THE CAPTAIN/PILOT. THE FLIGHT WAS DELAYED FOR 1 HOUR AND THEN AGAIN FOR 15 MORE MINUTES. IS YOUR COMPANY SO INCOMPETENT THAT IT CAN'T FIND THAT ONE CRUCIAL CREW MEMBER WHO IS NEEDED TO FLY OR DO YOU NOT HAVE ENOUGH MONEY TO PAY YOUR CREW MEMBERS A DECENT SALARY THAT THEY DON'T EVEN WANT TO COME TO WORK."
Pros: "Everything"
Cons: "Nothing was wronf5"
Pros: "Simple. No surprises. Low cost."
Cons: "check in took too long. Even though we pre checked the bag drop line moved slower than check in line. Not enough agents."
Pros: "The crew were friendly, considerate, and good at their jobs."
Cons: "The 'best' part: Frontier tried to charge me $104 to correct a mistake in my name during the online check-in process! I called and the customer service person agreed to make the correction without charge but also verified that the company did initially post the charge. In general, Frontier tries to charge for every conceivable aspect of a flight, including ANY seat you select (so you must decline to select any to avoid this) and the little snack bags on flights. Also, the first checked bag costs $35. Use with caution."
Pros: "Everything was on time"
Cons: "Nothing"
Pros: "The attendants were very kind and personable. The plane was clean."
Cons: "I paid $30 extra PER SEAT to get each family member a seat that reclined for our red-eye (Denver to Raleigh). Our row had extra leg room, but no ability to recline. My husband and boys were moved to reclining seats (see below). There was NO way to sleep on the $30 extra leg room seat. Ridiculous set up. The online seating chart NEEDS to be more specific and tell customers EXACTLY what kind of extras they are paying for - NOT JUST the price. Reclining seats cost just the same as the extra legroom seats, but doesn't differentiate which are which on the chart NOT GOOD. Also, with birthdates, the online seating didn't catch that my sons were too young to sit in the exit row. REALLY??"
Pros: "Price of flight, even including a checked bag."
Cons: "Seating space and comfort."
