Had a one hour delay due to mechanical issue. I didn’t think I’d be able to make my connecting flight, but they waited for me and greeted me when I arrived to help things run smooth.
O’hsre taxi and deboarding took 40 minutes. Needed 20 minutes extra time between connecting flights to avoid running through terminal.
Was great in general, try to respect time and excuses when slight changes have been made, appreciated!
Really hard landing... as in slammed into the runway then hit the brakes really hard ...
Putting people that close to the bathroom, where you have to look into the bathroom as people are exiting and entering was not great and the smell was also not great. I know the airlines are desperate for more chairs, but that seat is a crime.
Every staff member was professional, friendly and courteous. The pizza twist was ok. It was warm but too much dough.
one staffer was frustrated (it happen); the flight was late and the pilot mentioned they'll make amend but the snacks were the same, other than that the aircraft was clean and everything went smooth, no complaints
Wonderful in-seat entertainment with seatback screens and huge selection of quality movies. The ability to bluetooth connect headphones was amazing.
No seat back entertainment. And app had a hard time getting entertainment loaded.
ticket agent lady wás very helpful , she arranged wheel chair for my elderly mother
Flight was delayed no information given really . No food whatsoever on the plane . I think you should be able to put that on the app so people have a chance to buy food bring it with them . They said plane was very busy on way over but there should be enough for both flights as we pay full price for the service. No information or very slow on the app about the delays . Staff were lovely it’s not their fault so company not fare to passengers or staff .
Smooth quiet flight take off and landing both excellent. Food was mediocre. Boarding at gate was disorganized and unacceptable.
My only complaint is that during my 8-hour-long flight, the flight attendants came around with the coffee and tea cart twice instead of the alcoholic beverage cart. I would rather sleep on a plane than rush to the bathroom to take a dump. I asked the flight attendant if I could have a beer instead of coffee or tea. Unfortunately, she said the bar is closed. That tells me that she was too lazy to get me a beer on the plane. I was not happy about that.
Caring & friendly crew. Most important: got us SAFELY to our destination!
Friendly flight attendants, decent food if you can eat dairy.
Very good trip. Nice clean aircraft. Helpful and friendly crew.
Other than Air Lingus not loading one piece of luggage on our flight from Dublin to Barcelona, with it arriving one day after we arrived in Barcelona, all was good.
Crew members Grainne and Karen were extremely rude and unprofessional
I am very disappointed in that KAYAK sold me this flight as a business class it was not a business class. It was a regular economy class ticket. This was not Art Linus mistake. It was kayaks.
Everything was great. I liked that one of the crew noticed my son's sunflower lanyard and asked them to let them know if we needed anything. That was lovely.
The seat when "flat" was not flat and pad was too thin to cover it.
I had pre-selected a meal. I was told that it cannot be served because of some issue with the vendor. When travelling business class, I expect better service
On time departure and early arrival. Flight attendant very nice.
As we approached Denver, we encountered quite a bit of turbulence. I know this can sometimes be the case as I frequently fly this route but not on American. My gripe: Usually a pilot or co-pilot alerts passengers to the possibility of turbulance ahead of time. This did not occur nor did he communiucate during what was a pretty rough ride.
American delayed the flight for a crew rest period. The delay occurred late in the evening - the earliest i can find is 10:20 pm. With a 6 am flight anyone on the flight would have already have been asleep (unless you are insane, a vampire or on drugs) and at least for me i was already on the way to the airport at 445 am the next morning when i discovered they delayed the flight until 9 am. Given the incoming flight was in the air at 6 pm the evening before this should have been figured out a lot more timely that was there only crew to use. Just frustrating given there is no consideration for customer experience anymore in flying.
The business class layout of chairs was weired. You are sitting directly across stranger.,
The "on the ground" A/C was not working. It was so hot while waiting to get in the air, a passenger from the rear of the plan declared "I just can't!" and waited in the gangway until time to close the doors. It was miserable. But the crew were champs and had an amazing attitude. I know they were as miserable as we were but didn't let that affect their performance.
The captain announced to the cabin there would be a delay because they observed a "cut" on a tire during precheck that needed to be cleared by maintenance. We were delayed during this inspection and allowed to proceed after maintenance "measured the cut and decided it was acceptable". My complaint is not about the delay or due diligence. I wish the captain had been more generic when making his announcement. I was a nervous wreck all the way to Charlotte worried that we would have a blowout when landing!
American Airlines is a miserable experience. It is predictably miserable, in the sense that every time I fly American, I brace myself for the certainty that it will be unpleasant and uncomfortable. But it is unpredictable in the sense that I never know if the flight will be on time or delayed nine hours (both happened to me this week). I never know if I will be able to sit in the seat that I selected when I purchased the ticket or if I will be told by Customer Service (!!!) that I must relocate from first class to a seat in the back of the aircraft with no explanation (both happened to me this week). Will the food be frozen and half defrosted, or scalding hot? Will the drinks be warm? Will the flight attendants be surly and mean? Will the toilets be cramped and foul? Will the seats be narrow and uncomfortable? Will there be a real electric outlet at the seat, or just an unreliable USB-2 port? Will there be enough seats in the boarding lounge or just a few? Will the boarding process be smooth and efficient, or will the gate agents mess it up and delay it needlessly for 30 or 40 minutes? Will the catering and cleaning crew be prompt or will they take an extra 30 minutes? Will the brakes on the aircraft work properly, or will the pilot delay takeoff for four hours while the ground crew attends to what can only be described as routine maintenance that should have been done the night before? I've eexperienced every one of these unpleasant things this year, 2026. The only thing I can reliably count on is that American will find a new way to make the experience of flying as miserable as they possibly can.
I'm not sure American is capable of on-time arrivals and departures. When you land at ORD, you almost always get held on the tarmac because your gate is still occupied. I may have missed my connection, but that ended up up being significantly delayed as well. Once again, I finally got home well after midnight.
On-time arrivals and departures. Crew helpful and friendly. Yet everything costs extra: seat selection, food, even airphones!
Pleasant, attentive flight attendants, but they’ve got to upgrade their seats to be a true “business class” carrier.
Friendly flight crew. Airplane (757) configured as a domestic flight (no lie-flat seats) & no advanced meal selection.
Was a bit surprised that Icelandair flies a domestically configured 757s on long-haul flights to Iceland (no lie-flat seats in business class).
The Icelandair crew was so kind!!! Thank you for making my first trip to Paris a great one!
I am not going to fillo this out for each leg of my trip. My first review holds for the experience
The movie choices were poor. The worst problem is the treatment of passengers durinng pre-boarding. In one case the primes were checked in and sent down the boarding tunnek only to stand waiting there while the plane is cleaned. In the second case the bus was loaded, the doors closed and just stood there unmoving like sardeines in a tin for over TEN minutes. In both cases it was rough on us old guys who find standing for long periods trying.. In other words, Donnt just stack us up and forget us.
I had no idea that my ticket only paid for my right to get on the plane. They charged me $130 for my carry-on bag because it was 1 inch too big she claimed but it wasn’t! Then they wanted another fee for everything. I had no idea that Icelandair had changed to such a bargain basement airline. I was very disappointed.
Screen didn't work, and neither did the button to tilt the seat even though the seat was comfortable
Second time with Saga Premium, everything was fab, but the entertainment centre on both my flights didn't work, plus the seat on the NY to Rek flight (Airbus) was so solid and so uncomfortable. The 737Max flight's seat was much, much better.
My luggage was lost at the airport but American Airlines contacted me and got it to me the next day.
Waiting area not big enough for all the passengers, no airport lounge.
I like American Airlines and their safety record. They provide quality service and a feel safe enough to prefer American Airlines over other carriers even if I have to pay a little more.
Good flight, no turbulence. I felt safe and comfortable which is really important when I am just a passenger.
Worst airline in the world. They downgraded me from business class to economy with no compensation.
Overall ok. Best part has always been the sundae dessert.
Check-in in SAN was long. ORD was good. Flight delayed On board crew was ok. No warmth or personality. LHrR barely made connection
I’ve never been on a trans-Atlantic (or Pacific) flight where the seats don’t recline—not even a little. I asked my seat mate when BA starting doing this and he said “Oh, a few years ago.” I couldn’t sleep, with my head falling forward waking me continuously, and came off the plane incredibly stiff. I booked a Premium Economy seat to get a more comfortable seat, which was worse than most basic Economy seats I’ve ever booked.
The gate agent made me check my carry-on in Denver, even though I've traveled all over taking this case on the plane. Beware folks. Food in Premium Economy was quite good - excellent blanket! Flight attendants on the Heathrow-to-Budapest flight on 3-27-2026 were quite snappy. I got a frown when asked to unscrew the water bottle cap for me (I had a cast on my right arm). Also woke up right when they were handing out biscuits. She had given my rowmates one and was in the process of giving water when I asked for a biscuit. She scolded me and said, "You snooze, you lose". She did give me one, but I thought that comment was uncalled for.
Wish the food and overall service was better. They treat Business class passengers same as economy
