Pros: "Seat comfort"
Cons: "Nothing much"
Cons: "5 hour delay, forced $40 Lyft ride instead of Bart since it is past midnight/last train. I was not provided a taxi voucher."
Pros: "Quick boarding because not many passengers."
Cons: "Need larger luggage room. Lots of people were waiting because a guy just could not fit his luggage in overhead bin. Airplanes are very old."
Pros: "Quality inside the aircraft"
Cons: "More efficiency on travel times, as in the time that you are supposed to land, you land."
Pros: "I slept the entire time."
Cons: "Seats aren’t very comfortable"
Pros: "Smooth flight"
Cons: "4.5 hours late, DAL Alaska employees were unfriendly and unapologetic for this disaster of a flight"
Pros: "Crew and seating was comfortable"

Pros: "All the issues related to a small plane."
Cons: "The crew was great."
Cons: "Really bumpy flight. And flight was late."
Cons: "The flight was delayed 6 hours. The snacks I wanted were unavailable. When we finally landed we were taken off the plane in the back of the airport down stairs attached to the plane and loaded onto a bus and taken to the airport underground. Worst experience ever."
Pros: "Smooth flight"
Cons: "None"
Pros: "Short flight, generous complimentary drink portions."
Cons: "Another passenger was in my assigned seat. When I called him on it, he acted all confused, but made no effort to move. I had to put my bag in a further bin because there was no room in the one next to my seat and when I returned to my seat, the man was still there. I told an attendant, but the man only gave me the number of HIS seat and told me it was the same. I told him it was NOT the same. I assumed he wanted to sit next to a friend, so I just let it go and the flight attendant just kind of drifted away. I also didn't want to be the one getting tackled by an Air Marshall for causing a fuss. Turns out, that man didn't even know the person he was sitting next to. I suspect he just wanted to get out of the plane sooner. Either way, this shouldn't be allowed to happen - what's the point of choosing your seats if someone else can just take it from you?"
Pros: "Crew was great. Easy on and off plane."
Cons: "Seats were a bit tight. No entertainment"
Cons: "There was only water served then 30 minutes before landing they served juice. We had to ask if we wanted some of the cookies they are suppose to give out"
Pros: "The crew was pleasant and helpful"
Cons: "First the flight was delayed for 1.5 hours as it left the previous city late, no reason was given, however when the plane finally arrived we boarded a hot plane that was experiencing electrical problems. The plane was rebooted multiple times, making it even warmer as the air was shut off with the plane. We waited on board at the gate for over an hour to be told we would deplane and reboard a new plane. All in I experienced a 3.5 hour delay on a late night flight. The second plane was much more comfortable, but didn’t make up for the long delays"
Pros: "Nothing"
Cons: "The seats in coach are tiny. This is not conducive for a long flight. Not only that, but I was seated next to a obese person and she took up some of my seat too. Unbelievable!"
Pros: "The timeliness, crew were very nice and courteous. The overall feel was very positive. The lady at the check in counter was amazing.she was friendly,welcoming and set a very good tone for the flight"
Cons: "There was really nothing that I did not like on the flight that I can think about right now"
Pros: "Crews and service are nice"
Cons: "Flight was an hour late."
Pros: "Plane was very clean. Great staff. Overhead space was geat. The aisle was wide enough to pull my roller bag.Best thing was the leg room. It was more spacious than most of your competition."
Cons: "N/A. There was no entertainment: Regional Jet. And the food was...Airplane Food. Not a big deal."
Pros: "Coffee refills"
Cons: "All was good"
Pros: "This flight leaves out if Lovefield in Dallas, which is super easy. Everyone we encountered at Alaska Airlines was courteous & upbeat. Great customer service. Smooth efficient flight. Priced right if your timing is on."
Cons: "Bathroom was a little decrepit but not dirty. No biggie."
Pros: "For no extra charge the seats were comfortable and had legroom, a rarity these days! Great video screen with excellent free content. My bag was right there when I got to baggage claim too."
Cons: "Great flight. Gave the food one star but wasn’t applicable because I didn’t have any."
Pros: "Flight was excellent. From the flight attendants to the free movies."
Pros: "I would have to get the machine that the crew already tried to fix on a prior flight! My bad luck, for sure. And the2 people next to me talked the entire trip. So I thought I could just listen to music, but no. The flight attendant said that was gone together with the games. Not a good flight for me. I even moved to the bank of the plane, to read my book in peace, only to end up hearing 1 very loud FA talking!"
Cons: "Read above."
Pros: "I missed my flight by mere minutes. It was my responsibility to make it to the airport with ample time, but the doors closed on me with 7 min until scheduled take off. I understand the rule is that the doors close at 10 min before take off. The gate agent immediately put me on standby for the next flight and notified me that there was a good chance I could get on that flight."
Cons: "Did not get to sample the food as I fell asleep as soon as we got into the air. I kept waking up however because the seats were not very comfortable. There was not any space to recline the seats so my back was upright and it was difficult to be in a comfortable position. I have been in worse seats with other airlines, so the seats on this plane were not terrible, but travelers would benefit from an ability to recline, even slightly, and an adjustable neck padding."
Pros: "Movies & complimentary drink"
Cons: "Wait, delay. Lack of information given in regards to delay"
Pros: "I loved the mood lighting on he plane, as well as the in seat media and food ordering functionality. I’m blown away and will be flying Alaska any time I can get. Probably the most comfortable economy seat I’ve ever sat in."
Cons: "Second leg was a bit Spartan, but will consider Alaskan air before other major carriers going to same place."
Pros: "The crew was excellent and the aircraft was clean."
Cons: "The only downside was the plane had no food and the announcement wasn’t made until we were already boarding (they didn’t know either - not their fault). I was expecting lunch since I was in first class, but the crew did as well as they could to provide us with snacks."
Pros: "The crew was very pleasant & accommodating. Anytime you can make it from point A to point B safely then it's a 5star rating in my book."
Cons: "Seats are just so uncomfortable especially for short people."
Pros: "Great staff. Quick boarding. Appreciate them greatly."
Cons: "Nothing it was a wonderful experience. Maybe if the weather in DC had have been better"
Pros: "Worst flight ever!"
Cons: "Temperatures were in the 50s on board!!"
Cons: "Seats are not so comfortable"
Pros: "Nothing"
Cons: "No overhead space Uncomfortable"
Pros: "Smooth departure and arrivals; Seamless flight"
Cons: "Alaska staff (in-person and over the phone) was rude and lacked compassion for loosing my luggage; They were very discourteous about my feelings for having to stay an additional 4 1/2 hours at LGA at the airport to wait for my luggage. I tried to explain that LGA was not my final destination and FedEx'ing my luggage (with no concrete time-frame of delivery) was not an option; I desperately hoped that a compromised could be reached but all staff we not empathetic towards my issue. I tired to explain that because I would now be missing my train to Philadelphia, and would be traveling late, on a Sunday evening, that I'd more likely to be stranded in New York state.The overall demeanor of the Alaska staff was more like 'take it or leave'. I felt like their inconvenience was not amended by a resolution that would make me feel comfortable about ever traveling with Alaska (or Virgin) again. I felt like a burden to an airline to could careless about time and money. This airline does not prioritize customer service. My original LGA arrival time was 440pm, and i was expecting to get home (Philadelphia) at least by 830pm, but because my luggage was misplaced, I missed my train, and the option of busing home. Fortunately, and unfortunately, my luggage was able to get on a late flight to LGA. I did not receive my luggage until 915pm, and did not get home/Philadelphia until 1230am courteous to me purchasing a second/expensive/emergency Amtrak ticket. Thanks Alaska -___-"

Cons: "Nothing. Delta did very well with this one."

Pros: "Delta planes are typically nice and clean"
Cons: "Flight was delayed multiple times."
Pros: "Crew was friendly"
Cons: "Paid extra for Econ Comfort but still got a seat with no in flight entertainment and they provided no food/beverage services."
Pros: "Nothing"
Cons: "Wouldn’t let us take our carry-on because they had overbooked and had no more room in overhead. Delayed our first flight and then our connecting flight left *early*. (If you know you have customers with short connections, why leave early to make their connections even shorter?) Then told us they would not pay for our hotel since it wasn’t their fault. Gave us a “discount” with a nearby hotel that was more expensive than what you could book it for online. Had to wait several hours for them to get us back the carry-on luggage that they insisted we check in the first place."
Pros: "Air crew was excellent"
Pros: "Flight crew was excellent"
Cons: "Didn't serve snacks with peanuts because someone one board had a peanut allergy"
Pros: "Flight was on time with enough connection time to board with zero issues"
Cons: "No problems on this trip"
Pros: "Entertainment is so appreciated on long flights. It was quiet. Snacks done quickly. Took a long time to board, but the flight was full. We were delayed out of gate because of this. Unloading plane went fairly quick but could have been a problem for short connections. Those people should have been allowed to leave first."
Pros: "Quick boarding"
Cons: "Had to sit directly next to the engine and it was very loud."
Cons: "No meal service in first class."

Cons: "Delayed flight, mechanical"
Pros: "Crew was quick and nice."
Cons: "Not many options for food."
Pros: "Attentive crew, good atmosphere, comfortable seating.(no free food so 3* but short flight so OK) Pre flight...Soo helpful, wonderful assistant. Delta vs KLM...Not so...See below:"
Cons: "Little time for plane change at Atlanta. Atlanta rail excellent but plane arrival was late and time to cross airport limited. This was especially galling as I was at MCO early enough to catch the 1hr prior flight and requested a transfer to travel with a friend. There were seats available and Delta tried to move me but KLM would not allow it????"
Cons: "No entertainment available at all. There were empty seats available and passenger next to me in the aisle seat was not offered to move--she fell asleep with her legs crossed and kept kicking me in the middle seat--I was traveling with the window seat passenger."
Cons: "I tried to get a seat and it was so hard, i couldn't do an online check in and once at the airport, no one could help me."
Pros: "There was a slight delay, but boarding was easy, and flight was smooth."
Cons: "Flight was completely packed."
Cons: "The new seats are extremely uncomfortable for sleeping. Even in Economy Comfort + I had a hard time finding a comfortable position. The short hard seats do not work well unless you are sitting essentially vertical."
Pros: "This was a routine fight that was handled well but Delta and crew."
Pros: "Crew was not helpful. Our flight was diverted to Memphis to refuel due to bad weather in Atlanta. The crew would not contact the Atlanta base about connections. Although I ended up making my connecting flight (as it was delayed 2 hours) my baggage has yet to arrive."
Pros: "I got to where I was going on time."
Cons: "I didnt have a seat until the entire plane was boarded. The only food was a tiny bag of pretzels,and a cup of soda not even a full can like other airlines. There was no entertainment. Plane was packed full."
Pros: "Delta has really upped their customer service since the last time I flew with them! EVERYone was so personable and friendly! I was so happy with the experience, I will definitely try to choose a Delta flight as my priority airline to fly! Awesome job Delta crew!!"
Pros: "That the flight was over"
Cons: "Had to pay for flight, tiny sardine seat, water and people on flight were in a huge hurry to exit plane at gate, hardly waiting for row by row polite deplaning. At least I had an assigned seat! Baggage took a long time to arrive. The crowd on flight were very loud - awkward personal conversations. Crew were good."
Cons: "You have to pay for everything. No leg room"
Pros: "Nothing"
Cons: "Seating was wrong , they gave me a different customer's ticket and had me standing waiting for my seat . Attendant left empty bottle in seating area and walked away . Staff was loud and unproffesional."
Pros: "The end."
Cons: "The airline"
Pros: "Price—got what we paid for—a flight. Nothing more. As the flight attendant stated as she offered drinks or snacks, the only thing free is SMILES!!"
Cons: "Not even a free cup of water! Actually, a cup of ice was free—wow!! Only airline I have encountered that does not offer two free carry-on items—defeats the lower price of your ticket when you have to pay for every little item!!"
Cons: "Multiple delays. Turbulence. Not even offered water."
Pros: "The flight did get me from Chicago to Atlanta successfully, which was essentially the goal. The flight was not at all delayed, which was very appreciated. The staff was wonderfully nice, no complaints."
Cons: "The flight was very simple, I was unaware of their baggage policy before arriving to the airport. Other airlines make it clear how much a carry-on will be, I was unaware, and I felt a little tricked when I got to the airport and paid $55 for my bag. I don’t recall it being clear when I purchased my ticket either. I would have likely gone with another airlines if I knew it would be that expensive for a carry-on. No complimentary beverage service on the flight, which would have been nice. Keep expectations low, I don’t really need entertainment or a complimentary beverage service on the flight, is it nice and very appreciated, yes."
Pros: "Staff are always very professional and kind."
Cons: "Seat mates needed a bath -- BADLY. I don't think there is anything the airlines can do about that!"
Pros: "Very comfortable seats and smooth ride"
Pros: "Nice crew"
Cons: "Every time I've flown with spirit there's been long delays. I understand it's a cheaper flight but they should still respect people's time a little bit more than they do. At least compensate us with something for the time we lose."
Pros: "Flight attendants"
Cons: "Food items were expensive, having to swipe my card for a cup of water was quite annoying. Missed my first flight due to baggage being closed out although I tried to check my bags online almost 3 hours before the flight."
Pros: "flight was just fine"
Cons: "I paid for a seat upgrade I did not get... looked like first 2 rows were the large seats I was in row 8..."
Cons: "Attendant were not professional talked personal businesss during flight. Looked tired"
Pros: "It was a no frills flight, but it was a good no frills flight"
Pros: "Flight left on time"
Cons: "staff was not professional nor helpful. baggage fee is outrageous for carry on."
Pros: "There was a 3 hour delay. They lied about the reason for three delay. They charge way too much for carry on and checked bags. After paying for bags spirit is actually higher than the other airlines."
Cons: "The lying about the reason for the delay. Price of bags."
Pros: "Nothing"
Cons: "Worst airline ever"
Cons: "$100 R/T checked bag surcharge. No comp. snacks or beverage. Cramped uncomfortable seating. Inappropriate sale and hard promotion of Spirit credit card on both flights."
Pros: "Great flight and price for tickets"
Cons: "Can't complain"
Pros: "You get exactly what you pay for. A no frills service that gets the job done."
Cons: "The smaller aircraft are a little uncomfortable"
Pros: "They were on time and the return flight crew was friendly."
Cons: "The bag fees for me to check a bag and carry on a second bag was $100, so my inexpensive fare was $200 more. On the flight out the seats were very uncomfortable--plastic non adjusting seats. Thank goodness the flight was only four hours long. While I understand that drinks and snacks are "add ons" and a profit center, passengers have to buy expensive water and snacks with the gate vendors. Surely the airline could stock a few gallons of water for dehydrated passengers? The cost of my two bags would have covered bottled water for everyone on the flight."
Pros: "That the plane was really on time."
Cons: "No good service. Service try to sell you overpriced snacks and drinks. Carry on bags $55, Drop off bags $52."
Cons: "extra charge on carry on luggage and they charge for a snack and a drink. i will never fly with them again."
Pros: "Nothing really, I will stay away from Spirit in the future."
Cons: "There was a delay in our flight, did not receive a notice or anything. Had to sit in the airport for four hours. Has I received an update or a notice I would of planned around that. Also, the staff didn't seem to care. They just blamed the weather in Philadelphia, when we checked the weather there its was 83 and sunny. When we talked to the staff about it they changed there reason and they finally told us the truth; which was a staffing issue. I guess the previous flight crew decided they had enough and they didn't want to fly to Minneapolis."
Pros: "If not for the people this airline would disappear"
Cons: "Everything"
Cons: "Wouldn't let me board my flight even though I got the almost an hour before take off then told me I had to pay $100 to catch the next flight. I will never got with spirit airlines again."
Pros: "Liked pre-boarding experience, on time flight arrival and baggage pick up"
Cons: "Tight uncomfortable seats"
Cons: "Sudden notice for flight delay near at originally scheduled boarding time."
Cons: "That you had to pay for everything. A water? Really!? Snacks should be somewhat free"
Pros: "I like that I got home."
Cons: "The hidden fees ($20 for a carry on, $20 for a seat, no complimentary soft drinks, etc), the rude attendants, the late departure, the terribly rough landing..."
Pros: "Crew on the plane were very nice but the front desk were not very friendly nor explain things well."
Cons: "Unfortunately- I have a horrible time with your website, was never able to access. (Spirit) Your customer service is horrible, the young lady even hung up on me went I ask to speak to a supervisors! I was nice went expressing my concern, and trying to understand what was happening. The 2nd time I called the young lady was very friendly and helpful but I never got my email and she verified the email address I believe it was a system error. I was so surprise with the cost of baggage has to high. This was my 1st experience with this airline and probably my last. I travel often and I have never had such a horrible experience! I never compliant but this time I must express my concerns."
Cons: "They charge $55 for suitcase (other airlines only charge $25) AND for $55 each carry-on suitcase. They do NOT serve anything, not even water, unless you pay extra for it. The seats are cramped. At McCarran airport, they changed the gate but neglected to tell the people waiting at the gate. In Atlanta, the flight was delayed over an hour, almost 1.5 hours. Overall, I doubt that I will EVER fly with Spirit Airlines again"
Pros: "The flight actually happened."
Cons: "Flight was delayed for multiple hours numerous time before it was CANCELLED and we were told there wasn't another flight for 2 DAYS. I knew it was a horrible airline when I booked, but didn't think it would be this bad. This isn't a rare thing on this airline either."
Pros: "Purchasing my ticket from Kayak was easy and quick! But actually flying Spirit was a horrible experience. There was a delay without explanation regarding my return flight. The planes were old and during take offs and landings seemed to be on the verge of falling apart. The staff was rude and seemed like they were not confident in the planes abilities either. Overall, as a first time Spirit flyer I have no plans of flying with them again. Similarly, now I know why people always fly Delta!"
Pros: "The flight was delayed for 3 hours, with no explanation of any kind. When we landed in Atlanta at 2:30 in the morning, the trains were out of service and we all had to walk from the last gate in the last concourse to baggage claim. We did receive a $50 voucher for future travel for the inconvenience. But I don't think I'll be flying Spirit again."
Cons: "Delayed, exorbitant baggage fees, no beverage or snack service, general logistical incompetence."
Pros: "Once flying it was smooth"
Cons: "Delayed twice, lots of waiting"
Pros: "Arrived at my destination."
Cons: "Flight landed 30 minutes late and then we were delayed another hour with no explanation after being told it'd be only 10 minutes after the last person got off the plane. Unfriendly not even dating to border on polite."
Cons: "Flight kept getting delayed and the crew was not communicating what was going on. Also, the seats are pretty uncomfortable."
Pros: "Air comfort"
Cons: "Charges for luggage is very high. I paid $110 for two bags."
Pros: "All of the Spirit Airlines staff were smiling and friendly. In a busy environment this is not always the case."
Pros: "I liked everything"
Cons: "I didn't like that they charged for the foods when it's over a 100 people who paid . Least could give 1 free condiment"
Pros: "THE CREW AS GOOD"
Cons: "THE PLANE WAS DELAYED AGAIN THE SEATS WERE VERY UNCOMFORTABLE. SECOND TIME IN A WEEK THE FLIGHT WAS DELAYED WAS OVER AN HOUR LATE EACH TIME"
Pros: "Nothing"
Cons: "Spirit Airlines gives passengers no time to check in thru security and did not allow me to board even though I was an hour early. They always overbook flights and then cancel your flight at leisure."
Pros: "Excellent, I havent get any issue at all, flights are.on time, excellent customer service, I'm really happy."
Pros: "Overall I had a good flight. Everything went as smooth as it should have."
Cons: "Paying for seats that recline is unreal and paying $40+for a checked bag and a carry-on is quite ridiculous. The maximum weight checked luggage weight is 40 lbs which is quite difficult when your a woman traveling for a week."
Pros: "The low fares are always good"
Cons: "I jus don't like how you have to pay for one small carryon. Everyone should be entitled to at least one. I had to pay almost $90 for my carryon round trip. If that was the case I would have flew with another airline that doesn't charge me for my bag and the fares are not far from the prices of spirit. I. Total my round trip flight cost me $220 jus for air fare and luggage. Not acceptable. I'd rather fly delta or jet blue. I would pay much less than the total investment at spirit and won't have any baggage issues"
Pros: "Crew was friendly & boarding was quick."
Cons: "Bought flight because it was cheapest advertised; however, paid $36 for my one carry-on and another $56 for my one checked bag! The $25 extra was due to it being over their 40# weight limit (other airlines allow 50#). I'm very petite (5'2" & 105#), but still felt the seat was extremely small! Upon landing, there wasn't a gate available; so we waited nearly an hour to de board the plane. The passenger next to me said that's happened 4 of the 5 times he's flown Spirit (1-3 hour waits!!). Lastly, our luggage took a considerably ling time to arrive at baggage claim. Although we landed by 6:43, it was 8:30 before I had my bag and could leave the airport."
