Flight left on time. Seat spacing is way too small…

Flight left on time. Seat spacing is way too small…

I think Southwest is the number one airline that anyone can fly I have flown for the first time Frontier and what a joke and their customer service United was a very strange experience I'm only sticking to Southwest from here on out for sure

Flight coming out of Buffalo was delayed, so we had to be rescheduled on another flight from Baltimore to Phoenix which means we had a long layover and got home 3.5 hours late. Shuttle to parking stopped at 10pm, so we had to pay for an Uber to the parking lot and got charged an extra day of parking since it was after midnight. Not the best experience. Long day!

The entire experience from boarding to landing was amazing! The crew were very friendly. Will definitely be back.

Delayed flight, lack of information, boarding process is a mess as is the carryon luggage causing issues when leaving the plane….just a poor experience.

Airline travel is always too cramped to really be pleasant, but the cabin crew on this flight did a pretty good job of making up for it by putting on some music during boarding and sprinkling a few funny remarks into the safety briefing and announcements, and just generally being friendly and helpful. It definitely reminded me of why I prefer the in-flight experience on Southwest!

It went well. Plane wasn't full. Will be great when assigned seating is in place

As always it was a pleasure to fly on southwest.

Excellent! There was a delay due to the weather and they did all they could do to keep us comfortable & updated. Thank you!

Couldn't connect to the internet and movies. Needed help.

After flying with Qatar Airways and Kenya Airlines. Delta leaves a lot to be desired

Good service but not on par when compared to foreign flag carriers.

Delta keep on impressing me. Right now Delta airline is the best of them all

Delta is the best. It was all very easy and on time.

I was impressed with how quickly the baggage transfers were made.

We were delayed 2 hours because of a broken seat. Other than that it was a very nice flight.

Cancelled my flight. Left me in airport for 12 hours. Rude gate attendants. Worst delta experience I’ve had. I hope they have a focus group and return to thinking about customer service.

London to Atlanta was good. Atlanta to Phoenix was not. Poor boarding as I had to check my rollerboard even though there was plenty of room in the bins. Crew seemed inexperienced. Sat just off the gate for nearly 30 minutes with no explanation from the pilot while the cabin got hot. I typically have a much better experience with Delta.

Was charged for my luggage despite having been on one ticket from an international flight. Too tired to argue after 15 hours on flight. Was charged for rechecking it at JFK airport. Not sure why those off Kenya Airways were required to do that.

Crew handling the boarding at the gates are quite aggressive with the passengers and must be given training/ refreshing courses to improve customer experience.

I am United’s newest fan. The planes are clean, the staff is so friendly and snacks are more than just old pretzel crumbles. The captain came and said hello! Truly amazing experience

New Max 10, first class seats have been shrunk. End of a 20 hour journey, it was United not Lufthansa, just glad to get home

It was fine for the most part. But the volume on the announcements was way too loud, and the cabin temperature was chilly. We had the hardest landing I've ever experienced- I think it hurt my back, and the tires squealed when we touched down.

The seats on this flight weren’t as comfortable as we had expected. Even leaned back these seats left us feeling crappy in our backs. Also we had to use our own tablets for movies, but nothing in the seats in front of us to hold the tablets up.

I liked the snacks and the flight attendants were friendly.

Other than a way way too cold cabinets for the entire flight, all was great

Crew seemed a bit cranky. No seatback screens. But boarding was efficient and on time and we arrived early.

The staff was very friendly. The seats seemed quite small. Overall the flight was pleasant.

Absolute disaster. Rude, uncooperative staff. Staff ignores and pretends you don’t exist when you are asking them a question. Erroneous departure gate and baggage claim information. Equipment not working for purchase of drinks. Overly expensive baggage check-in fees. Overly crowded. Dirty airplane. Passengers coughing incessantly as if they were being gassed. Circled airport in flight several times and waited on the tarmac for 1.5 hours. The worst experience ever. Consider another industry. The travel industry is not for you.

The flight was mostly on time, smooth and deplaning was quick. Baggage was really quick at the claim. Comfort was so-so and I paid for economy plus. It was still too crowded and why was a family of 5 scattered all around the plane?

Both ways the people in the rear section of the plane were forced to check their carry on bags. I would understand this if the size and number of bags were not limited, but I do not understand why there is not room for one small overhead bag per person, even if the flight is full. I could watch the baggage handlers loading the extra luggage from my window and I’m pretty sure mine wouldn’t have survived undamaged, even though it is new and sturdy.

Great flight. Best in years. Very clean craft. Easy boarding. Communicative pilot. Friendly flight attendants. Absolutely smooth take off, in flight and landing. Very comfortable seats. Smoothest flight I've experienced in years. THANK YOU JET BLUE!

Mostly good, flight take off in time and land earlier I can’t ask for more..

The plane was FREEZING COLD. Like I was wishing I'd brought gloves. Is this how JetBlue sells more blankets? Other than that, all fine. Crew just as nice as usual. A flight attendant asked (who? The pilot?) to have the air turned down for a great number of passengers who were as cold as I was. They (again -- who is "they") did not.

Flight was fine, but I was annoyed to have to pay for luggage again. We had paid for our luggage on our first two connecting flights with SATA Azores Airlines, but had to pay for luggage again with JetBlue at JFK airport. For one trip we paid over $500 for two suitcases to travel from Azores to San Francisco.

Uncomfortable seat. No help for my disability. Staff refused to help me put my carry-on in the overhead bin. So I had to check the bag.

Given us a free miles or free flight for waiting for 9 hours I didn’t get home till 5am in the morning and I was supposed to be home at 9:30 touch down.

Excellent price. Everything on time. two bad parts. Kayak said I couldn't sign in for the flight online, but I got an email at the same time from Jet Blue and they let me sign in online. Second bad part was that, although I had provided my known traveler number, neither of my boarding passes, for this flight and the previous one, had TSA pre-check showing.

In-flight staff was very helpful and excellent. However, the flight was delayed by 90 minutes. Also the boarding process should be expedited in case of delayed flights. This will help the passengers trying to make international connections.

I had back trouble prior to my flight and everyone was great about helping me.

Got to gate late and they made me check my bag but when I got on flight there was lots of overheard bin space .

It was unfortunate that the plane had mechanical issues and delayed our flight, but I am glad we made it safely! On the first American flight from Charlotte to Phoenix, they changed the gate without getting a notification, and I had to make a mad dash!

The flight was almost an hour delayed causing me to miss my connecting flight, then the rebooked flight was delayed a couple of hours. They also left my suitcase in the rain for hours ruining some items I had in there. They also just blew off my complaint. It was my absolute worst flight experience of all time:

This trip on American was the WORST I have ever experienced. The plan was LATE taking off from Tucson due to mechanical issues. It caused me to arrive late in Dallas, so I tried to move flights so I would not miss my dinner meeting. First attempt, that flight was delayed, Second attempt, that flight was also delayed. Got back on original flight, the mechanical issue was NOT fixed, so we de-planed and had to find the new gate. Overall, was which was 4 hours delayed and missed the dinner meeting. Friday return, flight from Orlando was on time and landed early. Then the next flight was delayed due to crew coming in late, and them waiting on other passengers. After 90 minutes of delay, we boarded, and then were informed the Fist Officer could not fly due to time constraints. At 12:15 AM we were offered a hotel for a 4:20 boarding flight. Not happening. DFW was COLD and no place to sleep. Plane delayed again to 6:50, but was late taking off AGAIN. Finally landed in Tucson at around 8AM. Should be refunded 75% of the ticket costs due to negligence, nothing more.

The delay was not handled well and the offers to move flights and get travel credit was also not ideal.

It was OK, but it was delayed about an hour, and my luggage didn't arrive till about an hour and a half after the flight

The customer representative that helped me when I checked in was horrible as she told me I couldn’t check my bag because I missed the 45minute rule by 2 minutes - because of the line at the counter My connection flight was delayed too

The flight landed in Phoenix and taxied the runway for 15 additional minutes. I had a connecting flight I barely made it to because of the delay of the plane taxing the runway.

On time departure & early arrival. Made a long day much better.

The flight from Buffalo to Chicago was on an older and smaller plane. Seating was tight. Looking closely at the interior of the aircraft there were definitely signs of aging and wear.
