Our flight from Nice to Newark ran an hour late, and the food was mediocre, but it was fine. The problem was that we were scheduled to have a 4.5-hour layover in Newark, but then our flight to RDU was almost four hours late, finally departing at almost 11:30 p.m. We understand that flight delays were caused by weather problems in the East. However, there were at least two times, when were told that we would begin boarding in just a few minutes, only to have the flight delayed another 1.0-1.5 hours. This meant that we would leave a restaurant or the United Club, go to the gate, only to learn that there would be another major delay. Poor planning and/or communication.

Seats very comfortable; service efficient and pleasant; flight was on-time; boarding organized.
My food prefer was confirmed by email 2x and still the crew claim they had no pre-order. I taken ill while in India so I needed to avoid Indian sauces and spices, so the problem with the preorder was unacceptable. Additionally, is there a new rule to automatically not to disturb passengers? I would like this as an option. Lastly, for breakfast I needed to avoid Indian and I’m allergic to eggs.. therefore the only option was pancakes and guess what was not available!!!
It was a really seamless flight and the entertainment selection was excellent.
Business class would have been better , poor quality blanket , services
Flights were on time actually early service was good and crew cheerful
Food was awful. TV didn’t work for long haul flight and my husband needed credit. Staff was nice and did their best but overall conditions were very uncomfortable.
No meal service to the back of the plane as it started late or was too slow to get it out before it was time to land.
In general, flight attendants were not very welcoming. Because of delays in departure and luggage handling, we missed our connecting flight. Offered a later flight on standby but available seats were then taken by 4 or 5 airline crew so slept at airport and got home next day. I am a frequent traveler, and this experience was the worst.
I could not get the wifi to work. But like the screen on the seats.
Flight itself was not bad at all. However: my checked bag (checked in Calgary) did not make it onto this flight as I found out after I landed at EWR. I still don't have it but it appears that it is on its way to me.
My original booking with Air Canada turned into a headache
Extremely turbulent landing. Crew was friendly and plane comfortable. Airport and US pre clearance was understaffed
taking our carryon and forcing us to check it through
A sandwich and a drink would have been better thank a snack bar...
1 hour late No hot drinks No restroom in the back of the plane
Horrible flight cancelled had to buy another very expensive ticket
The flight was delayed for 2 hrs. We were changed to a smaller plane, which was shaking a lot.
No space in overhead bin, one cookie, 2 oz of juice - is not customer service.
There is not enough space between two chairs and raws.
