Might want to rethink the snacks you offer in first class they were pretty pathetic

Legroom was decent, but the seat comfort was horrible; I believe the seat cushions have lost their cushion. I was uncomfortable and had back pain throughout the nearly five-hour flight. WiFi did not work despite my attempts to get it up and running. This was very frustrating as passengers all around me were streaming football games, movies, and accessing email and text messages. One flight attendant suggested it was my seat, but that makes no sense, given WiFi doesn't work that way. On another note, I rarely have a good experience with aainflight.com.

This aircraft was much better than the one we took two weeks ago to Edinburgh. The legroom was fantastic (two rows in front of our seats on the last trip), the seats were more comfortable, and the overall experience was improved. The movie selections are awful, unless one likes violence, intense contention, and sexual content. The so-called family films are limited to animations in spite of the many quality live-action films actually geared towards families. A note to Kayak and the survey engineers engaged to gather meaningful data for future passengers and possibly their clients: in many instances, the data you gather is skewed because you provide no "N/A" options, which forces one to choose an option that is not representative of the experience. I recommend your surveys and questionnaires undergo a serious review and update so that the data you collect is meaningful and represent accurate conditions and responses.

My feedback from the trip to Columbia to Chicago was meant for Chicago to Denver.

The plane was delayed after we boarded - although they sent an email to my work email (which I did not get until later) there was no announcement from the PA about the delay in flight. Fortunately, they made up the time in the air and we landed around the original time.

The boarding by groups is pointless. The first two groups worked fine, but almost Noone boarded in goups three thru five leaving the vast majority boarding when group six was called. It defeated the purpose of spreading out the crowd.

I blame kayak for my last trip to dca. Kayak cancelled my direct flight and put on a one stop flight and made lost whole day from my vacation and had not even refunded my ticket.

delayed multiple times. no resolution on anything from AA customer service. was put on hold in chat to talk to manager. was 6th in line to talk to manager for more than TWELVE HOURS - from sometime around 9AM until well after I had gone to bed that evening. no explanation, no attempt to make it right. just a five hour delay because of repeated maintenance claims

Was the most uncomfortable I ever had in the air. Felt like I was trapped in the seat legs cramped and was just horrible. The flight to DSM was a lot better. Even being on a smaller plane was better. Staff are outstanding. No complaints about the people.

It was exactly as I expected, on time, smooth flight, courteous staff.
