After flying with Qatar Airways and Kenya Airlines. Delta leaves a lot to be desired
A 6hr delay is going to put a damper on all reviews. It was almost impossible to get into the Delta club also. Zero conveyance. I could not use my status for anything. Makes me wonder why am I loyal to delta?
I fly coach so there is always the feeling everyone up front has more space than me. Everything was fine - on time which is the most important thing!
Great overall experience and use of the Delta One lounge was amazing!
I used by Skymiles to upgrade to First so that I could comfortably work using my laptop. But WiFi was intermittent and unavailable for long periods. I feel like I wasted 70,000 miles :(
Great as one can be for a one connection 6 hour flight
The gate attendant was not clear w message on flight delays.
Chairs don’t recline and the ones that do recline, barely do recline. It was most uncomfortable flight i ever been on.
Good service but not on par when compared to foreign flag carriers.
Travelling with 2 others for work. Delta asked to check their carry ons due to the fullness of the plane. This was all good until the next leg of the flight. One of the 3 had their carry on checked through to the final destination but their passport on in their checked bag. Which they could not get to and he was not allowed on to the plane. Even though Delta had to retrieve his bag, because he was not allowed on. So they got his bag and he was in the terminal, but even when the flight was delayed, due to mechanical issues, he was not allowed to come onto the plane. Since the delay was nearly 2 hours, he was finally allowed back on the plane.
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 missed my original flight due to miscommunication and it was a challenge to communicate with service personnel, since my Portuguese is limited. However they got me food and a hotel overnight and a seat on the next available flight.
It was a bit unnerving to know that flights are generally oversold. We chose not to pay extra to reserve a specific seat, without realizing that that makes us vulnerable to being bumped. Everything else about the flight was great.
In flight from Miami to Anchorage, we were all on board ready to take off. Pilot decided to take on more fuel causing a delay. Once fueled, the pilot came back over the radio stating more delay due to VIP. These delays caused me to miss my connecting flight. I went to the Alaska Air counter for information. They flat out stated that it was ATCs fault that I missed my flight and booked me a flight the next day about 1300 . I believe if we had the fuel prior to getting on board we would not of been delayed and I would have taken off on time. Pilot was taken out of the equation. I think they should’ve taken responsibility for their pilots decision to top off his aircraft instead of waiting til the last moment. Enough said…
We liked the way we were treated by the sraff at lima airport counter and the the flight attendants. We did not like the fact that the kiosks at airport rebooted after we entered our information and then told us that there was an issueand we needed to go to the counter. Such a waste of time for a group of 6. Once we got our boarding passes there was no assigned gate so we did not know where to go.
Poor handling of carry on luggage. We had a 8 hour stop in Santiago, are over 70 and, in spite of paying full fare they wanted to send carry on to luggage hold. No empathy. We had to show that several group 4/5 passengers were not sending their carry ons before they finally let Is keep them. Very poor .
The boading process was fine. Had to wait for bus from tarmac to terminal. Had to go through 2 or 3 security checkpoints in Lima to make next connecting flight.
The crew was amazing. The best in the last times. Great group of people.
It’s been some time since I saw the plane and the cabin that old and worn out.
We had 2 delayed LATAM flights in our trip. We were only given one coffee for 5 hours delay. Also when we were boarding the crew wanted to charge us for our allowed carry on luggage. I got a bit angry and they finally didn’t charge anything. Not flying with LATAM again.
