Find Deals on Flights from Chicago to Washington (CHI - WAS)

It was delayed so I had to take another flight. I've been trying to get this flight refunded

No snacks, just soft drinks. Seats are just tolerable. Entertainment was OK once I figured out how to turn it off and read a book instead.

Seat was comfortable and crew were friendly. Flying experience was OK.

Status was not recognized - as an EXP traveling in Economy, no snack provided. Agent at Admirals Club in Chicago wasn't aware that transcon flight I had later in the day provided for lounge access.

The flight was pretty standard. No food, of course, and kind of subpar entertainment. But, the crew was fine and boarding was fine.

We circled for awhile, not American's fault, but it didn't make for a more pleasant flight especially in the cramped seats that American's planes have.

Boarding was easy. clean plane, crew was very friendly. I was very concerned though, when we banked left and did a complete circle in the air. An explanation from the captain would have been terrific. I made sure I was the last one to leave the plane and asked him about it when I saw him at the exit. He told me what happened but I would have liked to know while it was happening. Besides that, the coke and pretzels were divine. :)

coffee was horrible

We were late taking off.

Crew was professional and friendly

Flight was 3 hours late. Wifi was not working most of the time. TV reception was out for the entire plane for the entire flight

Flight was delayed multiple times due to incoming aircraft (which was our aircraft), numerous gate changes, then my suitcase didn't make it with me. Didn't get home until close to 4am with no suitcase :(

Besides the flight itself being delayed for hours, after we boarded we were kept inside the plane for over 2 hours waiting for the pilots to arrive.

Arriving at destination

The airlines have made the aisles and seats so narrow their is no comfort or personal space. Reminds me of the trailers packed with pigs headed to slaughtered. Except we pay. And when fuel prices fell out tickets did not. TSA lines taking two hours due to total incompetency of the Fed government.

Nice flight crew.

Frustrating. After 11 hours of travel under by belt for the day, I prepare for the final leg by removing my very small cross-body from my "personal item" so that I can easily access my passport and boarding pass. The gate crew makes me stand there and put everything away before getting on the plane while I continue to struggle with my carry-on. this could have easily been done once I was settled and buckled into my seat instead of holding up the line. I have priority boarding, clearly there is plenty of time to reorganize once I am on the plane and out of the way!

Flight attendant in the back was great. Plane side baggage woman in DC was also great.

2+ hrs delayed due to mechanical issue on flight from Chicago to DC No snacks

Pleasant

Delayed as well!!!

When we landed in Washington DC we sat on the Tarmac for an hour because there was no gate for the plane to park at. This caused me to miss my connection flight to Albany. I was put on a standby list for a flight that was leaving 7 hours later. They never offered to give me a meal voucher.

boarding and gate agent were superb

temperature in the cabin was hot enough to roast a turkey

Seats, video and overall comfort are all very nice on the new 900's.

Nothing.

left on time, the wireless service on the plane is a great idea.

they should serve free snacks

Seat was in the middle of the isle, flight attendant kept bumping into me. The guy sitting next to me didn't fit in his seat so he took up most of the room. Very unpleasant experience, especially after spending money to upgrade to more comfort.

crew was great

staff from de-icing company failed to show, despite >24h of notice of snow; missed our connection baggage handlers destroyed suitcase

Row 19 on a 737ER is great for room, as long as you don't plan on reclining (I rarely do in a daytime flight)

A little overcautious regarding seating the cabin crew because of possible turbulence, but better safe than sorry, I suppose. However, it is a common occurrence on this particular leg, so don't board knowing you might need to take a "break" before you get to Atlanta.
