WiFi broken, very long wait for valet bags, and the typical long wait at O'Hare on a thursday to get clearance to take off and then again long taxi and wait for the gate.

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

The gate agent in BNA got irritated with a lady for asking her about standby's and refused to hand out assigned standby tickets to ANYONE until Group 6 . She punished all standby passengers because of the one lady she did not like. When we boarded she said thank you to everyone as we scanned our boarding passes except the lady in front of me. Very petty and unprofessional

The old CRJ700's are rough, slightly larger regional jet would have been nice.

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 intuit carrier I have flown with that doesnt have WiFi available on board - at least not on the A380. Meal I wanted wasn't available and the meals I did get were all served cold to warm at best.

The flight was delayed several times as they didn't have pilots. Then we were boarded on the plane and again waited on the tarmac for over 30-40 minutes waiting for pilots to board. The in flight entertainment was confusing at best on how to use it. It took multiple attempts to get wifi to connect and by the time it worked the flight was almost over.

The flight was delayed and gate changed so that was not fun and the flight to Dallas from LAX was very delayed on Sunday. It was just not a great experience due to the delays both ways.

The Charleston, WV airport was cute. Very good staff and small enough to feel comfortable. The plane had more leg room than bigger planes. Much more comfortable.

A much better flight than our previous. The flight attendant took care of us and regularly checked in to see if we needed anything. Brought us drinks prior to the departure and then a couple more times. Totally makes the difference in how you travel when the crew is checking on their passengers. Great job on this leg of our trip.
