Pros: "Plane was clean"

Cons: "Everything. Bad communication. 1 h delay. Then 3 hs in the plane. We ran out of gas. 2 more hours taxiing Never seen something similar. I really hope my mileage refund."

Pros: "Made it home."

Cons: "delays."

Pros: "Nothing"

Cons: "Was missed due to delayed flight"

Pros: "Arrived early."

Pros: "nothing"

Cons: "no inflight entertainment no outlets"

Pros: "Entertainment on the newer AA planes is great. Meals are sparse but tasty (chicken wrap)"

Cons: "Middle seat always stinks - flight attendants on AA always seem like they hate their jobs"

Pros: "Awesome roomy seat right behind business class. Could not have asked for better! And it was a gorgeous new aircraft."

Pros: "I love your entertainment selection. also the comfort of seat and it's on time."

Pros: "The seats actually had individual screens, which was a very nice surprise. There’s a decent movie collection. alao the flight attendants were very nice and friendly."

Cons: "The tv show selection is quite poor. Also, like the previous flight, my husband and I weren’t seated together (not even in the same row) and when I tried to change it online, the entire flight showed as booked. However once on board there were clearly a number of empty seats."

Pros: "I really enjoyed the entertainment available."

Cons: "A 6 hour flight in which we were not offered food. In addition, when it was time for baggage claim, I noticed that my luggage had been damaged. One of the wheels was broken off. I put in a claim and have yet to hear back."

Pros: "The boarding process was ok."

Cons: "The entertainment system failed again."

Pros: "Sightsee"

Cons: "Delayed"

Pros: "Quick and did good job"

Cons: "After flying Japan Airlines I wish there were more free food and entertainment"

Cons: "No personal TV for entertainment"

Pros: "Nice new seats."

Cons: "The new seats are meant for "people shorter than 6 feet tall" as the flight attendant said to me. Is the airline industry deliberately discriminating against 6'6" people? 15% of the people you seat based on population are over 6'. I'm sick of paying more money for my long legs."

Cons: "No electrical outlets. No monitors"

Pros: "The boarding was done well"

Cons: "This was a 6 hour flight so American could at least have offered a better choice of in flight food purchases"

Pros: "Quick boarding, near empty flight."

Cons: "N/A"

Pros: "Landed early"

Cons: "The seats were not as good as the ones on my BA flight to Heathrow and then Rome. Also, cross country flight but no in flight entertainment. Arrived early in PHL and American would not let me move up to an earlier PHL-SFO flight since it was a code share booked with BA. Should not be my fault as when booking it indicated all four of my flights were with BA. Once booked it indicated the return flights were code share with AA. American should have allowed me on the earlier flight. That would have opened a seat on the scheduled flight which had people waiting on standby."

Pros: "Friendly crew"

Cons: "No entertainment."

Pros: "Loved the entertainment features. Great movie selection!"

Cons: "Nothing"

Pros: "extra leg room but I had to pay for it"

Cons: "This should only be used for important communications. And to not offer food on a 6 hour flight is horrible."

Pros: "Comfortable seats."

Cons: "Internet slow to access."

Pros: "blanket made it comfortable"

Cons: "No entertainment options"

Pros: "See above"

Cons: "See above"

Pros: "No entertainment nothing"

Cons: "Nothing"

Pros: "The flight crew was great and it was a very smooth landing."

Cons: "Had to pay extra for seats so we could sit together, near the front of the plane (not really, and no bathroom nearby, very small seats with zero legroom). we were delayed twice (40m then 1h10m) then told to go to a different terminal because now our flight WAS leaving on time! so we hauled over there only to be delayed again several times. we know it was a weather thing, but just wish there was more accurate info about when we would actually take off. seats on outgoing flight from SFO to CLT were GREAT, very roomy, comfortable. Coming back- not so much."

Pros: "Crew"

Cons: "Before I booked the flight I noticed it was only on time 53% of the time. True to that number we were delayed almost an hour before takeoff. Why schedule fights so close if almost half the time it's delayed? Something needs to change."

Pros: "Good free entertainment. Thanks."

Cons: "No good free snacks. Only free drinks."

Pros: "That this flight didn't get cancelled"

Cons: "Well I didn't like that we sat at the airport for nearly 10 hours after multiple flight delays and cancellations. Why not just let us know we aren't going to be flying out. That way you could reduce the 10 hour anxiety attack and mixed emotions coming with all the drama. I also didn't like that the only flight we could get the next day was into San Jose (not SFO which is what I paid for) there wasn't any offer of reimbursement for hotel, taxi or flight. I also missed 2 extremely important fairs that my company was expected to participate in on Saturday Morning. I didn't like that when we landed in San Jose our bags were in SFO. Then American Airlines didn't want to get us a ride to SFO which we finally received after a lot of arguing which I don't find ideal. I feel like AA didn't take any responsibility. They kept saying it was weather related which I can't accept because other flights (including AA) were coming and going the entire day!!! One customer service member said the plane we were supposed to be on had to be maintenances and another said they didn't have a flight crew. The whole day was a disaster and it cost my thousands of dollars and many many hours of stress and anxiety."

Pros: "Entertainment"

Cons: "Same as above"

Pros: "Nothing absolute nightmare .. no water .. are you serious"

Pros: "The flight was >1 hour late, which the pilot told us was due to the LAX controllers changing the landing patterns due to weather. So this really wasn't anyone's fault. But there was a large difference in comfort between this flight and the JAL flight from Tokyo. Seats were smaller, and my wife and I couldn't get seats together."

Pros: "Old plane"

Cons: "Sits were not comfortable."

Cons: "My flight was delayed for 3 hours and they where rude about my flight being delayed"

Pros: "The actual flight was fine."

Cons: "The gate staff was so rude."

Pros: "tv!"

Cons: "babies crying"

Cons: "Food was expensive and not well put together."

Pros: "Flight attendants very kind"

Cons: "More water, drinks. The food was absolutely horrible."

Cons: "The flight was delayed over an hour. Because of that, I missed my appointment."

Pros: "Never made it."

Cons: "I eventually got to San Francisco. I missed my flight to Lihue and had to stay in the airport all night."

Cons: "All went well."

Pros: "We paid for extra leg room but did not receive it. Our complaint to the staff was dismissed without a care. We will be taking our business to Alaska Airlines in the future."

Cons: "Everything"

Pros: "Uncomfortable"

Cons: "A few more inches of seating"

Pros: "Good crew, good and safe flight. Thank you!"

Cons: "Nothing."

Pros: "Seats were very comfortable in first class. Very happy with that experience for short haul flight. Enjoyed the service. Flight attendant checked on me multiple times and offered beverages."

Cons: "Snack/food choices."

Pros: "Safety of the flight, the route"

Cons: "The remote for the AV was so torn. I coukdnt even use it"

Pros: "Safe flight. Also, I was offered a different flight from Boise, ID, in order to make my connection in San Francisco. Thank you!"

Cons: "NA"

Cons: "Legroom, bin space, food"

Cons: "Cattle flight. Not enough space in economy for a person 6.3'."

Pros: "No entertainment. Not working No internet. Crewfelt like they were forced to be “nice”."

Pros: "On time, flight attends are superb"

Cons: "Cramped seats due to greedy corporation trying to appease the share holders"

Pros: "the entertainment program was good, and the plane in good shape"

Cons: "food was terrible"

Pros: "Da food, seat"

Cons: "Da Music"

Pros: "Quick and easy flight- not much to say, which is always good news while flying."

Cons: "Small seats."

Pros: "Nice crew. Free tv for delay"

Cons: "Flight delayed and then boarded very suddenly"

Pros: "I enjoyed my interaction with the other passengers."

Cons: "Several delays compounded to make trip a lot longer and far less comfortable than it needed to be."

Cons: "That I could only have one carry on an my purse was considered two, really and it was a small purse."

Pros: "Fast and effective. On time and crew was nice and helpful."

Cons: "They passed out drinks late !! Too close to landing time ."

Pros: "On time, quick boarding, smooth flight"

Cons: "No issues"

Cons: "Crew was rude and seemed to be in a constant rush big lack of customer service"

Cons: "Now Sherry in any documentation I received did it say that my flight was operated by United airlines. I waited at ANA check in until within the 2 hour window and went around and asked someone at United who confirmed that they were partners with ANA."

Pros: "Ordered the Protein Box, it was ok.. crew members nice."

Cons: "The Smell on the flight was unacceptable, I was sitting about a couple rows across the middle bathroom, and it smelled horrible, I had never had an experience like this on any other flight, I fly United many times a year, and this had me really uncomfortable for almost 5 hours, since the flight was delayed almost 1.5 hours while we sat onboard the aircraft at the gate, that had me miss dinner plans too in San Francisco as well. I really hope they can fix that, For the good of the passengers, felt like I was going to be nauseous all the time, and I'm really not someone that complains or takes time to review badly."

Cons: "flight control forced us to miss my connection to Kansas City so had to spend $150 on a hotel in San Francisco and wait an entire day to get home."

Pros: "Good service"

Cons: "Crowded"

Pros: "Super friendly staff, everything was great."

Cons: "Nothing"

Pros: "Friendly staff Easy boarding"

Cons: "The flight had no snacks. The seats werent comfortable."

Cons: "Plane was supposed to depart at 5:30 did not depart until around 7:20!!! Had to sit on plane for almost 2 hrs!! We were NOT OFFERED anything to drink Not even water!! Jet Blue would NEVER be neglectful, they are very service oriented. Plane was full & 2 babies on board one was fussy crying at times. It was s nightmare!! I was exhausted from traveling to NYC & Philly! & the delay & lack of service was AWFUL!! Could not watch TV, bc It either connects to phone, I could not connect it or I think you had to pay! Unheard of!!!I love to watch CNN, MSNBC & Fox it makes the time fly!! Hopefully will Never have to fly United Again"

Pros: "Flight attendants, entertainment. Thomas from United rocks"

Cons: "Nothing. All was good"

Pros: "Nothing"

Cons: "Will NEVER fly United again. Going home to advise EVERYONE I know not to fly United. They straight suck. Starving people on long flights with hot food for a third of the plane?!?!?! Then telling me I'm wrong for expecting a meal on an almost 7 hour flight?!?!?! &, even better, the reason my son & I starved all morning, day , & evening because EVERY single flight (all 3) were late, one so much so that we almost missed the connecting flight. Wow, is all I can say. After I still have United a chance after assaulting that poor man. Beyond highly disappointed."

Cons: "The Overnight flight I had was EXTREMELY uncomfortable. Too uncomfortable to even sleep at all. The seating is so tight, I could barely move my legs when the seat in front of me was reclined (and I am tiny!) I landed after my connecting flight was already boarded, causing an employee from the airline to announce my name over the intercom on the plane and tell the passengers to "clear a lane for me." I ran with my suitcase over my head, bumping into people and making it to my next gate...where I was told there was ABSOLUTELY NO ROOM for my carry on...which was also, very tiny. I specifically did not want to check my bag because I needed to immediately hop off the plane to make it to work on time. Another customer was VERY upset about having to check his bag and was pulled aside. I finally was told I needed to check my bag at the gate to get on. So i did. As I entered the plane, about half of it was COMPLETELY empty with PLENTY of room. I was floored. About 10 minutes later, the very angry man happily entered with his carry on and stored it easily in the overhead bin. My frustration was at a peak. But I said nothing. When I arrived to Newark, I rushed to baggage claim and guess what? After 30 minutes of waiting, my bag never showed up. I had to check in with information and finally found it. But this caused to me to be late for work. I have usually had a great experience with United. But this experience has changed my mind completely and am very upset."

Pros: "I liked how quick and easy the flight was; from boarding to exiting the plane in SFO."

Cons: "The size of the plane."

Pros: "Not much."

Cons: "Originally, there was an announcement that we would be delayed by 45 minutes because of "air traffic" issues in San Francisco, where we were landing. In spite of this, the captain decided to have passengers board the plane, and try to push our way up the line, so to speak. Well, once we were on the tarmac, the flight crew were told that the plane could not take off, and that we needed to wait there for 45 minutes, without moving, in our seats, with nothing to do. Even though it would still not have been ideal to wait 45 minutes at the gate, at least we could have walked around and could have entertained ourselves."

Cons: "The day we were to return to San Francisco United cancelled our flight making us scramble to get another flight. Thank goodness for Alaska. They got us a return flight and went to Seattle instead of San Fransico. United and San Francisco is a joke. Never again."

Cons: "Flight got cancelled cause of issues with plane. Took over 5 hours in line to get to the counter to talk to someone. There were only 2 counter people for first 3 hours. Once at counter ther had to put us on flight for next day. (Just informed 5 min ago that flight has been delayed another day cause of plane issues.) they couldn't get us to sit together which I understand but also put me in a middle seat which I'm clostraphobic so that sucks. Told me that I can book a hotel to stay at and they would reimburse me.... eventually. Fought over that for an hour and they finally agreed to pay for Hotel. Overall the trip was great but the departure from Kauai has been real bad. Still waiting to leave the island."

Pros: "Crew was attentive."

Cons: "From Gregory at the check in being rude and anything but welcoming, to seats in first class needing replaced, this was anything BUT a first class trip. This was my second time giving United a chance as I normally fly Delta. I don't think I'll make that mistake again. I understand a late night flight doesn't have a meal service, but snacks of chips and bananas is not my idea of how you should serve Firat Class passengers. I would have a hard time recommending anyone choose United as their airline. Time for an upgrade of not just the seats, but overall customer service."

Pros: "What did I like like that the pilot let us know what was going on on every moment and the stewardess was very friendly"

Cons: "Seats very uncomfortable last flight 30 minute flight took an hour if not more and not knowing what gate my next flight is until I get there"

Pros: "arrived on time, newer aircraft"

Pros: "Great flight for the price"

Pros: "The seats were uncomfortable. The staff was cold. The food was horrible, I wasn't even able to eat some of it. The chicken was full of bones and grissle. The rest just tasted bad. Most of their planes did not have screens in the back of the seats. Instead they wanted you to watch on your personal device via their app which worked sub par. The baggage on the return flight was delayed and I almost missed my next flight even though I had a 2 hour 40 min layover. Thankfully that flight was delayed 1 hour and a half. Next time I will stick with airlines I know better. Delta, Emirates, and Qatar all offer superior service and upscale aircraft. The 2k spent was not worth what I received."

Pros: "Anytime things are new, and the basic needs are met for service, I think people will be happy. But! Timing was estimate for an 8:56 arrival and we landed at 8:30, so great timing too."

Cons: "Power outlets worn out and won't hold a plug so they are unusable"

Cons: "Flight was cancelled"

Cons: "Very uncomfortable seats"

Pros: "The crew was friendly"

Cons: "The a/c on the plain was not very cold and it needs to blow more air"

Pros: "I loved how helpful and kind the staff was. There was an issue with seating and they sorted it out in a quick and professional manner."

Cons: "The seats were uncomfortable when sitting for long periods and the seatbelts could have been a little bigger."

Pros: "Flight Attendants were nice."

Cons: "The flight was expensive and they wouldn't let us or anyone place carry ons in the over head bin. It was an expensive ticket and didn't include checked bags ($25 more). Carry-ons wound up being "stowed". It would have been nice to know before I bought the tickets that I needed a smaller carry on."

Cons: "Purchased tickets 4 months before this flight for a departure time of 6:05pm. Tried to check in and check baggage at 9:30am but was turned away saying I could only check in 3 hrs prior to my flight. Came back at 3:00pm to check-in and they could not find my information. An hour later they find out that they cancelled the flight and moved my departure time to 8:25am for that day. They say they emailed 3 times in May but I never got it (I'm a bit crazy about my email staying clean) so they say it might have went in to my spam folder due to they types of emails they send to customers. They only kept repeating that they notified me so there is nothing they could do. I ended up going to Air Canada to get a flight to PHX the next day. No apology, no help, no hotel for the night...Terrible experience by United. They gave me a customer relations group contact information to follow up with for complaint but since they sent me the 3 emails in May about the change, they have no liability to fix the situation."
