Only beverages were offered to first class and I thought the flight attendant could have also served the Delta Comfort as well instead of sitting down and staring at her phone and walking past all of us to the back of the plane to charge her phone more. There was a complete lack of turbulence and was safe enough for flights attendant to walk around in the front of the plane, collect trash and serve a few people water and turn off the seat belt light. Also didn’t enforce people putting their seats into the upright position and allowed two passengers to remain reclined during landing. They seemed out to lunch completely. Usually my experience on Delta is much better.
Long story short, it was one of the better flight experiences I've had in some time when compared with other airlines.
Flight was great! This flight from Atlanta was even better than when I paid for Comfort from SNA to Atlanta.
Connection flights should be spaced out farther because too close I missed my connection.
Definitely a southern flavor. Cordiality was evident even though no drinks or snacks were served.
My service light was on 15 minutes before I had to get up and find a glass of ice. And I was in business class. The meals were not for either my wife and I. She did not eat the entire 10 hour flight and I managed a bowl of soup. I was expecting much more from business with what we paid.
The Boarding process was great. Particularly since my wife and I require assistance. The flight attendants were amazing. We travel frequently; they honestly were a cut above. 😀
My business class seat was inoperable and unable to recline for 10 hour flight.
Crew was nice, meal was good. Entertainment had to be rebooted 3 times and still did not work. Turns out there was residue on screen, it needed to be cleaned to prevent the touchscreen buttons from continuously activating. I had entertainment for the last 45 minutes of a 5 hour 45 minute flight. Really unacceptable for first class. Flight attendent indicated your cleaning solution creates this problem. Seems as if this is widely known, you should be using a different product or cleaning better. Really really disappointing which simply added to the wi fi on your planes with reliably never ever works.
Landed without a gate ready. Plane is extremely old and dirty.
Flight delayed 45 minutes almost caused us to miss connection to transatlantic flight.
Vegetarian food options were pretty tasteless. Gob of rice with absolutely no protein, barely any vegetables, and poorly seasoned. Food was the major disappointment of an otherwise good flight experience. However, food is a differentiator on long haul flights.
We were an hour and a half late, which caused my rental car company to cancel my reservation. We had no car, had to take a taxi to our hotel, and then a taxi back to get a new car the next day. Sometimes lack of on-time performance can end up costing the passenger a lot of money, none of which is covered by the airline that operated the late flight.
Overall good experience. But seats were small and uncomfortable for the price. Good entertainment, staff friendly and attentive.
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.
My pillow had a shoe print on it, when I asked if I can have another pillow, I was told “I’m sorry but it is one pillow per guest, do YOU want to turn it inside out” to which I responded , no thanks I will go without. This is generally not ok, but For the price tag I paid flying business this is absolutely unacceptable. Hopefully American Airlines can update their accommodations to bedding that is not tossed on the ground and stepped on, or at least have a couple of extra pillows in hand, incase someone had decided to step on the pillows for what ever reason
The flight from LA to Chicago was smooth and service was very good overall.
B-class on an old plane with antiquated amenities and poor service. Landed in Rome w/o bag that didn’t make the connection (plenty of time in London). Bag will come to hotel NOT the day it lands but the following night!! Still waiting for bag…BA had nothing to offer in support and couldn’t even tell me their comp, told to submit receipts and then I’ll learn what is or isn’t covered.
On time departure and early arrival. Flight attendant very nice.
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.
I liked the crew but not the uncomfortable seats and lack of movie and tv selection.
They cancelled our connecting flight resulting in another layover reaching our final destination 8 hours later than scheduled.
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.
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
Wish the food and overall service was better. They treat Business class passengers same as economy
We paid for Business Class seats, but system did not have us and they were not available.
Worth every penny to upgrade to BC. Treated and felt more like First Class
