Boston-based flight crew was superb
My flight never left because there was no pilot my experience was awful and I lost money
Landing was so smooth and perfect. I have motion sickness so that was really important
Check in was not good. They told me I needed a QR code for my vaccine card and pcr test per emirates rules. I spoke with emirates and they said this was not necessary and it would be handled in Boston. The agent at check in would not check me in without the code. I had to pay $275 for another pcr in airport with a QR code. Guess what?? Emirates did NOT need it and I wasted $275 on a test. Horrible experience. They need to get with with their partner airline and know the rules.
I never took this flight thanks to my disorientation from being on lockdown for 5 days, and 3 trips to a clinic for PCR tests. I simply confused Monday with Tuesday.
Love the experience, a little bummed about the AA flights. Its great to have more flexibility with times, but its not the same customer experience. (Mix of snacks, entertainment, free wifi. It seems more of a benefit in terms of experience for AA customers now flying JetBlue that the other way around
Flight crew were ok, however to charge for a carry on is ridiculous when the ticket I used was the balance for a Caribbean flight.
Pros: "Terrible flight."
Cons: "Wifi. Outlets."
Pros: "Crew was great. Seat was perfect."
Cons: "N/A"
Pros: "The crew was nice. My seat was ripped. There was some type of tape by the window. The flight was late and wasn’t informed"
Cons: "Communication with travelers if a flight will be late and better aircraft"
Pros: "Easy boarding..nice cust service at gate jfk"
Cons: "One hour delay waiting for gate at miami"
Cons: "Too many people on flight during Covid"
Pros: "This flight made me maintain my love for JetBlue. The seats were SO spacious and the crew was great. The comfort is something I haven’t had on a flight in a while. The plane was clean and had options for entertainment."
Cons: "Nothing to complain about."
Pros: "Entertainment and new plane"
Cons: "Some of the crew where just mean people"
Pros: "Crew amazin excellent fligtj"
Pros: "The crew was good, love free snacks and T5."
Cons: "Wi-Fi didn’t work and water was only served once. Not enough."
Pros: "Flight crew and timeliness."
Cons: "The planes appear outdated. The cost for “more leg room is astronomical and the satellite TVs were not working for the majority of the flight."
Pros: "The plane was updated so the seating and entertainment was good."
Cons: "The issues started with another JetBlue Plane having mechanical problems. This led the JetBlue personnel to plane swap where the Newark Flight took our Boston Flight and gave us the broken plane. This practice of plane swapping to avoid Airport Penalties is absurd. Terrible Experience!"
Pros: "Seat was comfortable"
Pros: "All my needs were met, but at times I did feel like staff were perhaps “inconvenienced/annoyed” by my frequent requests for water. I drank alcohol and thus wanted to stay as hydrated as possible. Also, the seat belt thing/issue. FAA or someone needs to review and update the bathroom policy. Consuming water is vital for our bodies and we need to be in situations that allow us to do so and also allow us easy access to flush out our toxins/liquids."
Pros: "Crew member Joe was very kind to my son with autism. He went out of his way to help him have an enjoyable flight."
Pros: "Great crew"
Cons: "More snacks"
Cons: "Boarding process in West Palm is always a mess. There has to be a better set up."
Pros: "Landing was super smooth"
Cons: "Crew was not what I am accustomed to with Jet Blue. Male member was dismissive when I asked him if I could order food and snapped at me that there was none left and there was nothing he could do about it. When collecting trash he did not look at my row to collect and we had trash to give."
Pros: "Seats were comfortable. Very smooth from checking in, boarding and arrival."
Pros: "Great! Both ways. Many thanks for making wheelchair travelsp easy."
Pros: "They made us wait in the aircraft for 1 hour because they didn’t have assigned gate! I missed my very important meeting"
Pros: "The wheel chair service upon arrival in Orlando was good compared to the one when I was leaving from Orlando. I had the worst service ever."
Cons: "The lady at TSA in Santo Domingo was unpleasant and rough.. I told her that I didn’t have to take off my shoes because the boarding pass was marked pre check. She said even the President has to take off his shoes, which was so unprofessional and rude. That made my overall trip frustrated."
Pros: "The crew is always great"
Cons: "I was delayed almost 2 hours leaving JFK due to maintenance issues and 3 hours on the return home due to maintenance, this has become the norm on jetBlue, in addition to inflight entertainment rarely working any more. Time for an upgrade jetBlue or I’m going to start booking with other carriers."
Pros: "Competent staff"
Cons: "Rude TSA employee"
Pros: "Comfy seats with good leg room"
Pros: "We upgraded to the “extra legroom” seats and they were so comfortable. The free entertainment was very nice and made the flight time pass quickly. The crew was friendly, attentive, and kind. We are looking forward to flying with them again."
Pros: "I appreciate that they let families with strollers board after Group A, there seems to be more space than the major carriers, and the snacks are good!"
Cons: "My Satellite XM radio didn’t seem to be working."
Cons: "Boarding was a little chaotic because JetBlue doesn't line the groups up, so everyone loitered around standing and it was hard to figure out who was part of "group a" and boarding now (for example), or who was part of other groups waiting to be called. The person at the desk did her best to tell everyone to sit down until called (over and over) but everyone ignored her. This problem might be solved if there was a line up area like how Southwest lines up the groups ahead of time."
Pros: "We flew in to JFK early & received great service throughout."
Cons: "The entertainment cut out a few times during the flight."
Pros: "It was all good."
Pros: "The crew was nice."
Cons: "Delayed for 2.5 hours. Overhead compartments taken by the time we boarded ."
Pros: "There was a weather delay and we were kept informed. Communications from the pilots were able to be understood. Best ever in that regard."
Pros: "Great flight"
Cons: "Nothing"
Pros: "Good leg room and free WiFi that actually works. Best domestic flight I have had in years."
Pros: "Closed Caption for deaf/hard of hearing people"
Cons: "Some movies don't have closed caption! That's not equal access! That's against ADA law!"
Cons: "Cabin temp was too cold"
Pros: "Even though our flight was 100% full, the staff went out of there way to make it a pleasant flight."
Cons: "We waited a little longer for our baggage to arrive but things happen and we did leave with our bags, that’s the main goal. Thanks Jet Blue"
Pros: "Nice staff"
Cons: "Air pressure not good. TV didn’t work. This is the 4th time I flew Jet Blue and had trouble with the pressure and the TV not working"
Pros: "The overnite flight"
Pros: "The flight and crew were totally fine. I slept the whole time."
Cons: "There was not a single JetBlue employee at the Denver airport until exactly 2 hours before the flight. There were many passengers (upwards of 20 and many with small children) waiting around to check their bags and unable to access the food/bathroom/go through security. Everyone was confused and upset. While I understand that there are no flights for several hours prior to the late-night flight I was on, that does not mean that there is no need for an employee presence. Many people arrived multiple hours early because the most common destinations for Denver travelers are the mountain ski towns and the last departures of the shuttles that run from the mountains to the airport leave at 3:00pm. Therefore a large number of passengers arrive by 6:00pm for midnight flights and are left waiting in the check-in area until 10:00pm. The situation was made worse by the poor communication--there were signs saying that checkin was open only from 8:00am-11:00am, which left everyone very confused, given that we were on evening flights. There were many angry people sitting on the floor around the JetBlue counter."
Pros: "The second flight attendant approached was helpful."
Cons: "Upon boarding an odor of vomit was obvious. An attendant announced that a previous passenger had been sick in the row and there was no time to adequately clean it. There was only one food option available for purchase. Neither the overhead reading light or entertainment system at my seat worked. The first attendant I approached told me she could find me a seat in the back of the plane. I declined as I reserved a seat in the front of the plane in order to deplane and go through customs swiftly. I was then offered a seat directly behind the row where the passenger had vomited. Eventually, a different attendant placed me in a seat nearer the front of the place where both the light and entertainment system worked."
Pros: "On board WiFi was awesome"
Cons: "Boarding process. Ppl who I know was in later group managed to jumped in front of other group but crew members either didn’t care or not even aware of it. Would like to see better boarding process, I.e. southwest... no you didn’t..."
Cons: "Slight delay"

Pros: "Great customer service"
Cons: "Everything was perfect"
Pros: "Nicer plane than the one we flew from San Francisco to San Salvador"
Cons: "There was no entertainment option. There were no screens or charging stations on the seats and my earphone plug did not work to watch the movie playing on the common screen, which was very small and hard to view."
Pros: "Good airline and nice staff."
Cons: "There is no personal screen for individual entertainment."
Pros: "The boarding process was really fast, the inflight service was good."

Cons: "I felt the space between rows is a bit tight and the food was fair."
Pros: "Crew was great."
Cons: "2nd revision point in San Pedro Sula. I understand is not Avianca’s fault."
Pros: "The movies were the only good thing in this flight because the food sucks and the seat are very uncomfortable, which makes think on not to take Avianca for long distance trips anymore"
Cons: "The flight was delayed (53 min) and they only announced once the change in the gate from 51 to 43, many people were lost without knowing were to go."
Cons: "The plane it was small"
Cons: "the aircraft. kind of old"
Pros: "Service, food & comfort are unmatched! staff kind & professional. couldnt ask for more."

Pros: "We loved everything about the airline we have been traveling with Avianca for several years now and we love it , definitely no other airline has the quality of service and professionalism as Avianca does."

Pros: "The in-seat entertainment."
Cons: "There was a four hour delay and not much communication on the part of Avianca staff."
Pros: "It got me from Point A to Point B, so credit for that?"
Cons: "There were zero vegetarian food options. Entertainment was a shared screen between a dozen passengers. These planes need a fire upgrade."
Cons: "excellent al"
Cons: "My flight landed at 2:00pm, and my connecting flight boards at 1:55pm. The gate was all the way on the side of the airport and I had to go through another security checkpoint and barely made my flight."
Pros: "Nothing at all it was the worst experience ever"
Cons: "We weren't treated the way we were used to being treated with great customer service this time we felt poorly treated"
Pros: "Food and quick attention"
Pros: "The plane was clean and although it was full it was not incredibly noisy."
Cons: "The passenger next to me needed a blanket and the crew took a long time to give her one. She had to ask several times."
Pros: "Free movies"
Cons: "The landing was horrifying. After being on many commercial flights over the years I have never felt this way about a flight experience. The pilot seemed very inexperienced nor skilled at landing. The plane first took a plunge leaving everyone grabbing their seats in fear. The plane was going way too fast as we then continued descending while the plane tilted to the side and then the nose of the plane tipped downwards. To best describe the situation, the plane was completely out of control. Everyone around me was frightened and talking about the awful experience. Flight attendants nor the pilot made any mention of what happened nor did they make an announcement to make passengers aware that there may be some difficulty landing. Therefore passengers were left to wonder what really happened but it seemed as if this was the first time the pilot had flown a plane. After the landing I was sick for the rest of the day with nausea. I would like a refund and will report this matter to the FAA for answers and I believe they should investigate what happened on this flight for safety matters. I did not feel safe at all, and I have never had an experience like this. I'm afraid to ever fly AVIANCA again."
Pros: "I really liked how they gave out a free meal - few airlines still do this."
Cons: "Na"
Pros: "We just spent the last 3 weeks in South America including Peru, Ecuador and Galapagos. We took a total of 9 flights with Avianca including a couple of 50-55 minute connections. Flights were consistently on time and service was great. Amazingly, our luggage made it too despite the short connections. Service was very good. The crew was pleasant and they were always serving drinks and food/ snacks even on short flights although food is usual coach fare. All in all a very positive experience. Most of the North American airlines could learn a thing or two regarding punctuality, service and baggage handling."
Pros: "The airplane is fine, the flight was fine."
Cons: "The waiting room in El Salvador was too small, there were no chairs,hot, and full of people"
Pros: "Their service has lowered the standards though and that is why I do not grade them 5 stars. In particular the crew in the plane was not as nice and the food was not as good as before. Compared to other airlines I frequent though, Avianca is the best."
Pros: "On the flight down from Miami to Cartagena, we did not expect a meal...and since we are all vegetarians, pretty much did not get one, but the flight attendants gave us what they could. I called Avianca and requested vegetarian and received for all 6 of us! Also, pleased that my whole family was seated in one row."
Pros: "The movie"
Cons: "How they play yoyo with the fare....i paid about $1100.00 for a round trip flight from miami to barranquilla, and a couple of days later it dropped to half the price. On my way back from barranquilla to miami, i was excatly 4 minutes late, they refused to let me on the flight, which was not even boarding yet (1 hour away from flight time). They forced me to buy a one-way flight back, with connecting flight, for $550. I don't know if this even going to make any difference, or even be read, for that matter, but i thought i would relay that to other customers who are thinking about flying with avianca."
Pros: "Good entertainment"
Cons: "Slow boarding"
Pros: "My third time flying Avianca, my third time enjoying the flight. The alternatives from El Salvador (sal) to the U.S. (iah) with no stops is United Airlines and I had such a bad experience with them. I was a loyal customer for Continental but it ended when United took over. So far Avianca has replaced Continental in my list of airlines that I would consider. And KAYAK was awesome as always......"
Cons: "The entertainment choices (but to be fair I did not peruse all of the options available) were not to my liking. Is just a small thing and is not a complaint, is just an observation."
Cons: "I'm writing this review in behalf of my mother, who had a nightmare in Lima, Peru. Avianca changed her flight without prior notice (email or phone). She is a 72 years old woman that had a stroke three years ago, can't be exposed to any stressful situation, she needed to take medication at 9:30am LIFETIME! They didn't asked if she had a health condition, they just decided to change her flight from the one at 10:00am to the one at 5:00pm. Maybe they would be able to guess it as she was so nervous, she showed worried and confused in the counter where they informed her the "news" during check-in process. She arrived 3 1/2 hours in advance to the airport in order to avoid flight stress. She doesn't have family in Lima, so they sent her to a nice hotel (but far), arrived at 10:15am so she took her medication late. Very stressful episode for me and my family after trying to contact her as the hotel didn't let her call us (Avianca said she would have an international courtesy call). My mother called a friend of mine informing her the situation, that is how I knew about this. She didn't ate correctly that day as her food has to be low sodium. They should have arranged her flight in a same group plane and avoid old persons (with conditions) wait 9 hours. There are no words to express my frustration as nobody could help me in Avianca customer service. They should have priorities and consideration for elder people as this kind of situations are harmful for them, their blood pressure and their hearts! CERO COMMON SENSE!"
Pros: "On time, fast boarding, Second leg was very comfortable with ample leg room."
Cons: "Nothing to report."
Pros: "the wind was high on the landing into costa rica but the pilot made a smooth landing"
Cons: "Security personnel at Msgr Oscar Romero International airport were ugly manner and very unprofessional, disgusting the way they treat people, I am Diplomatic Consul General and he didn't care and gave me more grief!!"
Pros: "The crew was very attentive."
Cons: "The flight dinner was really poor."
Pros: "The food they served for dinner was enjoyable."
Cons: "After arriving in San Salvador from San Jose, another passenger informed us that there was a flight departing for LAX at around 3:30 PM. Considering that our flight was scheduled to depart at 7:25 PM, we decided to ask the customer representative at the Avianca information desk if there were any open seats available on our flight home to LAX. She informed us that there were open seats BUT we would have to pay an extra $200 to board that flight. I have been on other airlines before and they have offered me the option to get on an earlier flight - FREE OF CHARGE. Considering I had bought my complete, round trip ticket for $435, the idea of paying an extra $200 for one leg of my journey seemed ludicrous! So I stayed the 6+ hours in El Salvador. Fast forward 6 hours and the desk agent at our gate announces that our flight is completely booked and they are offering $300 for anyone who will give up their seats. I am PISSED. Avianca knew our flight was overbooked and had the opportunity to take two passengers off the list and free up seats for the next flight! Instead, they chose to make us wait and delayed our flight. I do not understand Avianca's customer service procedures. Why would you not put my friend and I on the next flight when you know the next flight is going to be overbooked and possibly delayed? I'll I know is that if I can avoid flying with Avianca in the future, I will do it."

Cons: "No complaints"
Cons: "If you can get it he people at the desk to stop making announcements while there are announcements being made over the airport PA system that would be great.

Cons: "When my flight with American Airlines cancelled, I felt so panicked because I needed to be in Florida on Saturday night. But thankfully, lady who works for American Airlines solved my problem on the phone in couple of minutes easily. After that, when we were boarding to the aircraft, there was a cabin attendant lady. She came to us and ask me and my mother if we can talk English.I answered her with yes we can, but she demands to talk with my mother. And English is not her native language, but it doesn't prove that she doesn't know it. She tried to ask questions to her like, "where were you today?" so we couldn't really understand the reason for her to ask those questions in the first place. So we couldn't really say anything. While we were talking about my mother's English, the all aircraft was watching us, and trying to figure out what was going on. After all, she made us to sit there and wait her to replace us with other passengers. We waited the whole aircraft to be seated, then she took us to another seat with my mother. I can understand that it is her job but I'm not sure, if it had to be that much discomfort. We got pretty upset about it and it affects our flight quality. Plus, while cabin crew serving beverages, they didn't really ask us anything. We needed to call them for our order. To be honest, I would never flight with Delta. It was a disappointment."
Pros: "Seating was very nice and a free move was a plus"
Cons: "Boarding is a free for all. People cannot find their seats and put their luggage in the overhead. Board the plane from the back first"
Pros: "The service and the seats"
Cons: "We spent more time than scheduled waiting to take off"
Pros: "Nothing. My flight got canceled."
Cons: "Delta offered nothing for canceling my flight, rescheduling me on one over 24 hours later with two layovers to Miami. I lost money on hotel reservations and never even made it on my trip. Couldn’t reach delta for over 24 hrs to confirm whether I’d get a refund or not"

Pros: "Nothing. This airline is awful in every way imaginable."
Cons: "We booked tickets to Costa Rica with Copa and they just changed our flights to two days later than the booking. They didn’t even bother to inform us of the change we only found out because we booked through Kayak and they let us know. Apparently Copa expects you to frequently check your booking just in case they’ve changed anything and don’t feel the need to inform their customers of any changes they make. Then we were told we could get a Copa voucher to use for other Copa flights for having to cancel our booking and rebook with another airline as a 48 hour change to our flight made flying with Copa not doable for us. But the website kept telling us we had a voucher that was sent to our email but despite repeated attempts it never came through. And spent hours trying to get through to someone on the phone to sort it out with no success ever getting through. My advice. NEVER EVER FLY WITH COPA."

Pros: "nothing"
Cons: "a/c full, needs more control."
Pros: "We seré stuck for 50 minutes in the plane, when landing as there was some problem probably with the airport ability to accept us. At first the captain anounced something but then no information was given. It was quite stressing."
Cons: "We"
Pros: "The food and entertainment."
Cons: "Nothing."
Pros: "Check in was fast and efficient. Flight was uneventful, no issues."
Cons: "Copa check in is now at Terminal 3, but boarding is from Tom Bradley Inter'l Terminal. We did not see a regular "high placed" sign for Copa which caused us to make two circuits until we saw the street side sigm which is in a nondescript area and easy to miss. My entertainment touch screen was not responsive and sticky. It froze twice. However after bringing it to the attention of the crew, they did make the effort of resetting it. In this regard I highly commend the very tall FA who was a credit to his profession. It still had problems but did work somewhat. I will add that in all my prior experiences in which this problem occurs the FA's are too busy, or forget to reset the entertainment system, so I happy that he did. The interior did not seemed to be very clean there were food stains on the pull out tray and no in flight magazine in my seat pocket. the cabin crew was nice, youngish but did not have enough personality to tell off passengers doing things that they shouldn't out of common courtesy like the passenger seated next to me playing Chinese language videos out loud on his i phone. The same group spent a lot of time burping and then spending an inordinate length of time picking their teeth with wooden toothpicks which did not make for a pleasant scene. I almost lost my appetite seeing which what vigor they went at it, what were they expecting to find? They would then spit the residue in the air making me a bit nauseous. The food was dire especially the two melted cheese/beef/chicken sandwiches served near the last third of the trip. The main lunch ravioli meal served earlier was not bad. The bottom line is that the flight was uneventful with nothing to note, but there is definite room for improvement."
Pros: "Reasonably good food, nice service."
Pros: "Easy flight, good service, attentive crew."
Cons: "Food was not that great."
Pros: "El tiempo fue rapido"
Cons: "La comodidad del avion. Son muy estrechos."
Pros: "nothing"
Cons: "the connection was short the flight dropped me off on the tarmac never again will I go Copa"
Cons: "I didn't have a seat from Panama to Sao Pablo, because they oversold"
Pros: "Great comfortable flight. Decent sized seat."
Cons: "Nothing"
Pros: "Nothing"
Cons: "Copa Airlines. Flight delayed an hour due to weather.(understand) We sat on the tarmac for 20 minutes when we got there. We ran to the gate. The guy scanned our boarding pass but didn’t let us board plane. We waited 6 hours to get a new flight booked. They had no line, no organization, they didn’t communicate what was going on, just left us sitting there in limbo. They never apologized for anything. They put us up in a hotel at midnight just to leave to catch our rebooked flight at 7:00AM. We didn’t have a chance to eat because we were stuck in line not knowing anything. When we asked questions they pretended like they didn’t hear us. By the time we got to the hotel we barely had enough time to sleep so we didn’t bother with the free dinner. They absolutely ruined our vacation. I’ve been using Kayak for years. Never again. This is beyond bad customer service; this is a total lack of empathy."
Cons: "The A/C it's very cold, and I asled for a blanket and they did not have one."
Pros: "The lost my bag and couldn’t find it till two days after.... they gave me no voucher or explanation I would like to be refunded foe this terrible experience ...."
Pros: "They offer food and free alcohol. This is not common any longer in the US."
Cons: "In Panama City during a layover, we had to go through security a second time."
Pros: "I liked how accommodating the staff was with seating for my family, as I was traveling with two young children and we weren't seated together. There was more leg room than most other domestic air travel companies I have been on. There was no upgrade charge for every little thing, such as blankets, pillows, etc. We were fed on each flight, and alcoholic beverages were at no additional charge. The exit tax to leave Costa Rica was included in our ticket, which I was not aware of until I was leaving the country. (nice surprise). Over all, most other airline companies in the USA have made changes that improve their bottom line, but they have completely ruined any favorable aspect of traveling with their airline (American Airlines, Frontier, Southwest, Delta, etc). Copa has done a great job of providing great service and cost for travelers. Please do not change your business strategy by removing some of the above mentioned benefits I enjoyed in order to improve your profit margin. It is refreshing to know there are still air carriers out there that retain the service that is hoped for by most travelers. Also, Roxana and her entire flight crew were outstanding. Thank you , I will fly with you anytime I have the chance."
Pros: "The crew on all of the flights were all very nice. At the end of the day, my suitcase did end up getting shipped to my house within a few days. It was just a little unorganized throughout the process of tracking it down."
Cons: "Following this, my flight in Bogota left 3 hours late. Not only did we board at the time we were supposed to be leaving, but then sat on the runway for an hour and a half before having to go back to the gate to refuel.... All passengers sat on the plane for 3 hours in Bogota before we ever took off with little to no communication as to why. Upon landing in Miami, my bag was then missing which honestly wasn't a big deal - I knew I'd get it back eventually. But with my new flight, I wasn't entirely sure which flight my bag should be with and which airlines (Copa or Avianca) I should go to regarding it. The staff for both were incredibly rude. My suitcase was the one missing and I was the happier, nicer one out of everyone I spoke to. I was told it would be shipped to my house which was great until I got an email saying I could pick up my suitcase at the airport. After searching for 2 hours of where to go and all staff pointing me to a different spot and offering little help, I tried calling the Avianca number I was given for any questions. Unfortunately, there wasn't going to be anyone who spoke English in until after my flight took off. After getting to my final destination, I tried calling the number again to try and sort out where my suitcase was and no one spoke English or could direct me to someone who could. I had to have my friend in Cali call the main office for me to find that my bad was still in Bogota after all of that."
Cons: "La comida no es adecuada para un viaje de tantas horas"
Pros: "The crew was super polite!"
Cons: "Seats were too cramped."
Pros: "14 hour Layover when you have to recheck luggage is terrible. Can't even check in for 8 hours so stuck outside the airport with no place to go until 6 in the morning. Not good at all."
Cons: "14 hour Layover and luggage did not go straight through. Had to recheck baggage after 8 hours. Then wait another 6 hours inside the airport."
Cons: "El aeropuerto de Panamá e el peor que he visitado en mi vida"
Pros: "Copa has the worlds very best gate agents and check-in agents by far... they had a huge line and held very professional atmosphere"
Cons: "Always the good there was none"
Pros: "My flight was delayed, causing a lot of stress at the terminal because many people had connecting flights. The Copa staff could not have been more helpful. Copa even put me up for the night at a Sheraton in Panama City when I missed my connection, provided free transportation to and from the airport, and gave me a free dinner voucher. All in all, a well handled experience in the face of disaster."
Cons: "Getting home a day late wasn't pleasant, but it wasn't Copa's fault."
Cons: "Boarding was too slow"
Cons: "The online booking company was confusing and not friendly"
Cons: "I'm still traveling.. copa rebooked on united.. is coming in at midnight instead of 2pm.. missed an dinner event I have planned. Disappointed some people.. plus I'm still not home.."
Pros: "I now am a fan of COPA airlines"
Cons: "Food"
Cons: "Leaving vegas to Panama they checked my passport and stamped my ticket "documents ok" .. Arriving in Panama we flew to costa Rica again checked my passport and stamped my ticket "documents ok" ... Now almost 11 hours later we arrive in Costa Rica and because my passport was ripped they wouldn't let me in the country and sent me back. Why your airlines couldn't have told me this before I got all the way to Costa Rica and passed two check points I don't know. So you guys said you would send us to Puerto Rico but I would have to by my own plane ticket home... Very disappointed in your airline. And to top it off my boyfriend and I had very expensive osprey packs we were traveling with .. We used a copa plastic bag to wrap them up in Vegas so the strings would not get caught .. When we received our packs in Puerto Rico YOUR employees had taken the bags off and cut my boyfriends 300 dollar bag! I will never fly again with your airline."

Everything was fine

Pros: "La atencion que tienen muy buena y muy profesional"

Pros: "La atencion personal abordo es muy amable. Pero no hay snack. Solo sodas y agua. Eso no es bueno."

Pros: "Excellent"
Pros: "A crew waiting at the plane entrance and help me with my carry on. Very friendly."
Cons: "Girl doing check in at airport counter wasn’t pleasant at all. Didn’t greet me o said thanks. I didn’t feel welcome. She just took my passport and return it to me with my boarding pass and told me to be at the gate at 11:20. Time was around 10:15AM"
Cons: "The crew must tell other passengers to behave."

There was only a meat and rice dish and pasta and ham, no vegetarian options hence 2 meats dishes. The landing was very rough like the pilot just dropped the plane. We weren't offered cofee and just because we are in economy class we should be served in better dishes no plastic utensils. Feels like you don't care for your customers unless they fly business or first class. Tickets aren't cheap anywhere with you"
Pros: "1st checked bag included. Free drinks"
Cons: "Avianca reps are unlawfully closing the flight when flight is overbooked. Then they said it was passenger who was late. They charged change of flight costs and did not provide hotel. This is happening to many passengers."

Cons: "I can’t think of anything- every thing was very good"
Cons: "We had issues on the flight to our destination and the flight home wasn't much better. The flight was delayed 30 minutes boarding. Then when we got to Dulles the plane sat at the gate for 45 minutes. The crew didn't speak much English so it was difficult to figure anything out. First they said they were having issues with the gate. Then they said we would be deboarding from the tail. Another 20 minutes later they said they had the gate fixed andf we would be deboarding from the front. I wish I had not flown Avianca."
