Boarding went fine, the plane was clean, and the crew was very friendly. Seats were a bit cramped, but that seems to be typical on all airlines anymore. Cookies and pretzels were offered as were beverages - the usual. I’d fly American again.
Pros: "The pilot gave all the information pleasantly. It was easy to find my seat and everyone was compliant with COVID-19 rules/restrictions."
Cons: "Boarding process could’ve been a bit quicker. There should be free accessible WiFi for everyone."
Pros: "Crew amazing!!!"
Cons: "Better maybe in giving drinks every once in a while like they use to."
Cons: "Flight attendants need to enforce all policies. It makes no sense to enforce a seat being leaned back a 1/2 inch but allow a Face Mask be worn as a Chin Guard through the entire flight instead wearing it properly!"
Pros: "Jason the flight attendant made the flight very enjoyable and pleasant. I was a bit sad saying good bye to my family but Jason’s upbeat-positive energy brought so much happiness to my day. Exceptional employee! Thank you for hiring such a kind spirited person!"
Cons: "101% satisfied with the flight! No issues!"
Cons: "The seats were tiny! I'm a big woman, but not a huge one and I struggled to get my belt on. Considering how nice their seats are, this is one of the smallest seats I've ever sat in!"
Pros: "The crew was great and provided a quiet environment for the red eye flight."
Cons: "The boarding process needs to be reevaluated. Perhaps the plane should be boarded from the rear to the front or from window to aisle seat. These suggestions would streamline the boarding process."
Pros: "Nothing"
Cons: "Flight was delayed 3 hrs"
Pros: "Awesome Customer Service"
Cons: "Nothing"
Pros: "Easy flight. Free drinks and snacks. Nice crew."
Cons: "No individual entertainment. Do not help those that are AA members"
Cons: "There was room for my carry on, although they said it was full and cheked it"
Pros: "Getting from A to be safely"
Cons: "Being so delayed that we had to sprint to make our connection flight. Starting a transatlantic flight with sweaty armpits is never fun for anyone involved, us or our seat neighbor"
Pros: "?"
Cons: "the fact they changed my schedule and had to come in earlier customer service was awful and my luggage came back dirty and the best response was that the belts are dirty and i can expect wear and tear. not only that i had to book myself an earlier trip to pay the standby fee so i can leave the same time my brother left tsa screening had us wait 20 min before we move in the line for the fact no worker was there but one guy and i was the last person to board the plane after almost missing closing gates my expierence was awful and disrespectful"
Cons: "Over 45 mins for bags to get on the belt ? Ridiculous. Won’t fly with AA again"
Pros: "Teeny little plane but easy (early i think!) boarding process and nice flight attendant."
Cons: "We were in quite a long line to take off and when we arrived in bmore there was no one to manage the jet bridge and we sat for a little while. Seems like these issues should be easy to solve - you know when the plane is arriving for over an hour!"
Pros: "Amazing and comfortable"
Cons: "We left a little late."
Cons: "Getting canned and put on a flight five hours later. Good job AA"
Pros: "I was under the weather and she was very very very helpful Mary and all AA flight attendants are great I will fly AA as often as I can because of Mary"
Pros: "-Efficient Boarding -Great flight attendants -Communicative Pilots (flight time, number in line on runway, etc)"
Cons: "Did not dislike anything on this trip."
Pros: "Got two seats to myself."
Cons: "I don't even know who our flight attendants were. Did we have them? Isn't that a requirement?? Guy in seat in front of me was super rude (yes, I know it's not the airline's fault.). Terrible turbulence (again, not AA's fault)."
Pros: "No problems."
Cons: "All was well."
Cons: "I didn't like the fact that I was told to preboard when I checked in before the flight and was told by another employee i was in group 6 and shouldnt be in line. Had to explain why I was preboarding and didn't like having to hold up the line. It was embarrassing."
Pros: "I like the ease of boarding and the offer of complimentary check-in if the bags. I assume it was because the flight was fully booked. Overall I was pleased."
Cons: "The entertainment could be better during the flight. I also don’t remember being offered any snacks during the flights either."
Pros: "Everything was on time and comfortable."
Cons: "We didn’t have food service because of turbulence. But that wasn’t the crew’s fault."
Pros: "Crew was outstanding"
Cons: "Hurried beverage service since arriving early. R"
Pros: "flight crew on my way to BWI were great!!!"
Cons: "american airlines does not care about the privacy of their passengers. even after several calls my information wasn't updated correctly and my flight confirmation was passed along to members who weren't even traveling. there was no in flight entertainment and in order to pick seats together i needed to pay extra (i thought i was flying with american not spirit) apparently the only way i can be helped is writing a letter to customer service which they will review within 10 business days. THANKS american for starting a war in my family and ruining my trip. unfortunate the crew is so awesome but the customer service is mortifying, rude, inconsiderate and completely mechanical. i dont ever intend on flying with them again unless necessary."
Cons: "Told me that if I checked my carry on bag at gate, I'd be able to pick bag up from from the gate at the other end. Instead it went to baggage claim with took more than 30 minutes."
Cons: "The departure was delated more than 30 minutes and the arrival disembarking was to slow."
Pros: "So great to see the flight attendants help a family (not my own) make sure that a child could get to the toilet even though it meant a brief delay before we could take off. so helpful."
Pros: "The plane was new and nice looking"
Cons: "The flight was delayed. The crew was rude . Seats were not assigned until boarding NPILWL3B. Of course they give you the worst seats."
Pros: "THE SEATS WERE COMFORTABLE AND CREW AND VERY ATTENTIVE."
Pros: "It was good fly can't complaint the attention was great"
Cons: "When I was flying to Arkansas from NY they didn't give anything to eat"
Pros: "the flight was great and comfortable"
Pros: "Flight was good,"
Cons: "American (Alaska was a code share) did not tell us which terminal this flight left from. It was a sattelight terminal which required a long slow bus ride. Carrying luggage up and down stairs. The deplaning experience was such I would avoid the only nonstop to our destination."
Pros: "Short flight. The crew was nice. The food and entertainment should be Not applicable because it's a short flight - I was not expecting it."
Cons: "Boarding was late, very small carry on compartment - maybe because it's a smaller carrier. A lot of people had there carry on placed in a valet service so it took a while for them to get out because they were waiting for their carry ons."
Pros: "I liked how smooth flight went especially after all the bumpy rides I had been on"
Cons: "I didn't like that I wasn't able to sit with the person I purchased my ticket with"
Cons: "We sat on the plane for over 2 hours before takeoff. We were offered no competition other than a quick appology from the pilot."
Pros: "Plane was not crowded, boarding was fast, take off was on time & arrival was on time."
Cons: "Had to pay $25 to check in 1 luggage, i should be able to check in 1 for free after paying $600 for a ticket. Selection of drinks & snacks was poor."
Pros: "Got me home safe"
Cons: "1st: the gate was changed three 20 mins before boarding 2nd: we were in the plane for an hr before actually flying out"
Pros: "Roomy seat, great price"
Cons: "No ice in my water."
Pros: "The crew and the comfort"
Cons: "The entertainment"
Pros: "Overall good experience"
Cons: "Delayed almost an hour."
Pros: "Super sweet and helpful crew, comfortable seats, fast boarding."
Cons: "My overhead light was broken. I didn’t need to use it so it was no problem at all, but that’s the only thing I could think of"
Pros: "The crew was outstanding and the flight on time."
Cons: "One of the bathrooms was not working properly so everyone had to do with two bathrooms."
Cons: "The boarding time"
Cons: "Tv did not work, internet to bad"
Cons: "Poor communications, no apologies"
Pros: "Free drinks and a snack."
Cons: "United entertainment app doesn't work on all devices."
Pros: "Plane arrived early and deplaned early. Crew pushed to serve drinks even though there were bumpy stretches."
Cons: "In boarding, putting groups 3, 4, and 5 in the same line works poorly. The size limits on carry-on bags and personal items was smaller than other airlines, unnecessarily so for the latter given the size of the space under the seat in front. United is inconveniencing customers without any justification."
Pros: "The price was decent. The plane was delayed by about 20 minutes, and they worked hard to get us on the flight quickly so we could make our connector flights."
Cons: "For a 5 1/2 hour flight, the only snack we got was one cookie. For the 4 1/2 hour flight, the only snack we got was a very small bag of pretzels. There is no TV. They give you free United wifi that you can use if you have a device to watch movies/TV on, but they don't have any outlets to charge the device, so it's kind of pointless. You have to download their app before the flight starts. I was having issues with the app on the previous flight, so I tried to get help with it before we took off. Our flight attendant acknowledged she heard my question and then just walked off and didn't help me."
Pros: "Not much to like."
Cons: "Seats to small...no shoulder room. Noise exceeded 70 db"
Pros: "Atleast was able to reach my destination."
Cons: "No leg room. Definitely overpriced"
Pros: "I rebooked on another flight very easily! That was excellent"
Pros: "On time take off and arrival"
Pros: "Zero. Literally nothing."
Cons: "Delayed more than 4 times. And changed gate. Just terrible"
Pros: "Least expensive and quickest trip"
Cons: "Not always available on return trip"
Cons: "Seperated me from my partner after we originally had assigned seats. Middle seats non reclining - horrible"
Cons: "We had to return to Newark due to problem with the plane. So we prepared for a crash landing, but there was little information as to how long it would take to land. So we circled for about 1 hour, waiting to crash land, Little information from the cockpit, and the steward was not prepared for the scenario. Upon normal landing, there was no information as to the next step. Disappointing."
Pros: "Thought it was cool with the screens in the seat even though I didn't use them"
Cons: "Seats were cramped and the power outlet was to hard to reach since I couldn't see it. I ended up just using my battery pack."
Cons: "Very limited free entertainment"
Pros: "Attendants were nice"
Cons: "Switched from ANA to an ANA operated by United. I wish we could have stayed with ANA. Legroom was shorter by at least 3 inches, so knees hit seat in front. Made for an uncomfortable flight, reminding me of why non-US carriers are the better way to go"
Pros: "Great flight friendly person sitting beside me, would like seat towards front but my husband likes sitting in back , we had seats in row 27 & window seat for him he likes looking out. It was very enjoyable. Thank you"
Pros: "The low cost of fare. The ease of ticket purchase thru kayak. Convenient e-mail services. United Airlines service was courteous and very handicap friendly."
Pros: "Your ground crew and flight crew is very professional. Thank you for an uneventful flight."
Cons: "Slight delay that was beyond anyone's control. We had a safe and comfortable flight."
Pros: "Everything ,good services ,nice stafs and puntual"
Cons: "Day I did not select. I'm furious."
Cons: "Sat waiting to take off too long. Not enough of a beverage . No entertainment ."
Pros: "Seats were comfortable. I passed out so couldn't take advantage of the food and entertainment. Nevertheless, I was comfortable enough to take a snooze. Despite the turbulence, Captain remained in control and ensured smooth safe travel."
Cons: "Sitting in the middle. And the bright light from the TV kept turning on because I would lay my arms on the arm rest. Also, airline attendants were not friendly. Maybe, they too needed to take a quick snooze."
Pros: "Crew"
Cons: "Seat did not recline at all. I have no idea if the entertainment was any good because I did not experienced it"
Pros: "Friendly staff and working equipment wins!!"
Cons: "A one-way a form from BWI to Denver is $169. The cost of an upgrade for this flight from Houston to BWI was $589. Please explain that United."
Pros: "It was a crowded flight home, I knew that when I checked in online. I was forced to check my bag plane-side...to be picked up at baggage claim upon our arrival. Inconvenient to say the least. The crew announced there was in-flight wi-fi {available for purchase, of course} only to come back on and apologize that the wi-fi was down for this flight. The crew did do beverage service, but never made it to the last three rows of passengers. Overall, just not the type of customer service I am used to from other airlines. I chose this flight based on the price. I don't think I'll chose United again in the near future."
Pros: "Nothing at all"
Cons: "Everything"
Pros: "Everything"
Cons: "Keep improving for sustainability in market. Best"
Pros: "I think is too much money that I have to pay for the second baggage"
Cons: "I think is too much money that we have to pay for the second baggage"
Pros: "The flight itself was ok."
Cons: "They have lost my bags. I won't receive them till Friday."
Pros: "I received my e boarding pass the night before"
Cons: "The boarding pass that was sent the night before had the incorrect gate and no seat assignment. I spoke w THREE agents at checkin and they all sent me to the (wrong) gate- C25 and wouldn't give me a seat assignment. That is a long way to go w a scooter and a bag, only to learn the correct gate is B4. I was the last to board, there was no bin space left. it shouldn't be so complicated."
Pros: "Customer service"
Cons: "No problem"
Pros: "Same as above."
Cons: "None"
Pros: "Part of personal device show of "By the Sea""
Cons: "San Fran to BWI unable to view end. Hubby watched Olympics I refused to pay for two devices."
Cons: "2.5 hour delay. No working bathrooms. Couldn't hear the tv and headphones that they gave out were useless."
Pros: "assigned seating"
Cons: "Hate the lack of leg room."
Pros: "Everything was great"
Pros: "I enjoyed that this aircraft had in-seat entertainment displays."
Cons: "Limited leg room. Seat didn't recline."
Pros: "The food at ohare"
Cons: "Having to wait an additional 6 hours for my flight home."
Pros: "The length of the flight was acceptable."
Cons: "My seat was moved futher back in the plan 34D, seats were smaller, knee space tight, the air back here was unpleasant (b.o.). Very noisy. The stewardess did not know how to operate the entertainment screen, finally she said I needed headphones, once I was hooked up volume up High I still couldn't hear the movie, to much outside noise, I thought the guy behind me was shaving. The Asian snack was dreadful no beverage available for awhile."
Cons: "Horrible costumers services I never Ever flight here"
Pros: "I didn't use the service. But it did look like good"
Cons: "Nothing"
Pros: "Nothing"
Cons: "Everything"
Pros: "i got to sit by my friend"
Cons: "during a pandemic you’d think people would be spaced out but there were people coughing all over me and i’m literally going to visit my mom and if she gets sick she’s going to die"
Pros: "Fast easy boarding and direct non stop flight"
Cons: "Explain works and perks better."
Pros: "Inexpensive, direct flight. Very friendly flight crew."
Cons: "Works, Perks explanation. Misleading buy one covers all whennavtually buy one means everyone has to buy it"
Pros: "The softest landing on our whole trip!"
Cons: "Apparently, if you pay extra for carry on luggage and you have seats in rows two and three, you can’t use the overhead compartment, which then somewhat defeats the extra legroom you paid for when your carry on has to go under the seat ahead of you. And the flight attendant was rather rude in her insistence about where my luggage “couldn’t” go."
Pros: "The guy at the front desk was awesome. Friendly and very helpful."
Cons: "We were delayed for 2 hours with little to no notification or accommodation"
Pros: "An itenirary update ahead of time. We missed our flight."
Cons: "Send us an update the day before about upcoming flight."
Pros: "On time departure, early arrival. Lead crew member helped me find a trading card Frontier does with all their animal mascots I use for scrapbooking my trip. She took the extra time to find one in a kid snack pack and gave me whole thing! Made my day."
Cons: "Plane was a bit dirty from quick turnaround service. Crumbs on all my row, window smudged with who knows what. My Lysol wipe came in handy."
Pros: "Crew was super pleasant and chipper. Passengers seemed to have a handle on how to board in a timely manner."
Cons: "Management could schedule time for maintenance software updates so as not to affect departure time. We were 20 minutes delayed."
Pros: "The plane landed safely."
Cons: "This was the WORST customer service experience I've ever had in my life - airiline or other business. The plane sat on the tarmac in Denver for 45 minutes after landing while our connecting flight took off. The "Customer Service" desk was rude and completely unhelpful, as was the supervisor."
Pros: "Great customer service. Bag drop is super easy and fast."
Cons: "No WiFi."
Pros: "Nothing"
Cons: "Flight was delayed to 5pm. But left almost an hour early. Flight left without me. Not much notice to other passengers. Every airport display and the gate display said 5pm. Many passengers left behind"
Cons: "Crew pretty lazy.. sat most of flight talking"
Pros: "Nothing in particular"
Cons: "Frontier has issues with maintaining schedules. Also, the aircraft are too basic."
Pros: "Easy boarding, good staff"
Pros: "The flight was clean and nice we enjoy crew they are friendly I had sugar was down and she give me orange juice very fast thanks for that"
Cons: "The crew was really annoying and tedious!"
Pros: "It was smooth and easy"
Cons: "Long walk to get to terminal in the rain."
Pros: "Very uncomfortable plane"
Pros: "Even though plane on tarmac for 20 min, made time up in the air for an on time arrival"
Cons: "Flight has attendant had very negative attitude, smart mouth remarks and seemingly did not want to be there or working at the time"
Pros: "Nothing."
Cons: "Gate agent singled me out of the entire plan and REFUSED to let me board until everyone was on Bc I 'had to use a seat belt extension, per her'. I do not own one nor did/do I use one on any of the flights I just took and was buckled 100% of the time. Extremely embarrassing and very aggravating. I fly about 12 times a year and typically never with Frontier, I now remember why."
Pros: "I loved the laid back atmosphere, the employees."
Cons: "I'm a small person. The seats are tiny, even for me."
Pros: "Our agent was very helpful. Could have charged us the max rate for luggage, but she didn't. Arrived ahead of time on both flights. Knoxville made us sit on the runway for some time, even though bays were open."
Cons: "Charging for one piece of luggage and carryon -Really!!! I had put on the website what luggage I had and when we got to the airport it wasn't in our info. We had to pay extra because it didn't come through on the website."
Pros: "I liked that the back of the plane filled first. The check-in at the airport went quickly and that was very nice."
Cons: "I did not like having to pay for a carry on. I agree with some other comments that adding that cost to the ticket price makes other airlines cost about the same."
Pros: "Staff were friendly."
Cons: "A basic seat should not cost extra money. Nor should bottled water."
Pros: "The price was right. I see all these complaints about the pricing scheme and just think the people who bought these tickets didn't read anything while they looked for prices. It is clear on the website that carry-on and checked bags are added fees. Even with added fees for a carry-on/overhead bag this price was $200 less than the closest competitor. Ticket was purchased the day before the flight. Nice that Frontier is also in the TSA PRE-CHECK program for screening at the airport. That was a time saver for sure."
Cons: "Seats have NO padding. For a long red eye flight, this made for an uncomfortable TOTAL of 5 hours for the combined trip. People getting on maybe don't fly much because the boarding process was hectic AND long to complete."
Pros: "Cheap"
Cons: "No drinks"
Pros: "went from point A to point B, that's what I paid for and that's what I got"
Cons: "seats were uncomfortable but what can you do"
Pros: "Flights were pretty clean and decent. Seats were moderate size not too small as I was told by some of my friends. Planes were neatly maintened and newly built. Free water offered which was expected."
Pros: "Both flights were early."
Cons: "45 minute wait for baggage in DEN. No personnel available to check passengers in in PIT. We waited for 30 minutes for them to show up. Different prices for baggage depending on whether you book it when you book the ticket or if you do it at the airport. Charging for a seat reservation is nonsense. Of course so free food, not even peanuts! I am so tired of being nickeled and died by airlines that I now will actually refuse to make certain trips unless I can drive. No other industry in this country treats its customers as shabbily as the airline industry."
Cons: "Being stuck on runway, waiting to take off. And very limited updates. Already a long flight ahead of us, waiting to take off is very depressing."
Pros: "The crew was fantastic very accommdating and friendly and i arrived at my destination ahead of schedule always a plus!"
Cons: "Eventhough i paid for the more roomier seats, it was still a tight squeeze. Next time I'll choose seats by the wing or thr very first rows."
Pros: "The flight was ok. The money you think you save on the scheap flight you lose in additional expenses such as carry on, seat selection, and so forth. I probably wouldn't fly them again"
Cons: "Additional incurred expenses. Seats were not comfortable."
Pros: "The flight was over a half hour late, the baggage claim was late, the seats were uncomfortable. I also did not like that you get a surprise bill to pay for your seats and check in bags (which are normally free) 24 hours before the flight. No point in having lower prices tickets if I have to pay an additional $80 before I can board. Very disappointing I do not want to fly Frontier anymore."
Pros: "This is my return flight. The cost of the flight was something like $90 round trip from ATL to orlando international. No brainer. I'll take it."
Cons: "After spending $90 on the flight I got to check in the day of and find that it is going to cost me $40 down and back to bring a CARRY ON. I then find some fine print that says how to get around the $80 round trip fee. Get a carry on that fits under the seat in front of you. So I pack in a small backpack that can "fit under the seat in front of me" and have less clothes than I want for my trip but am able to offset the almost 100% increase in cost. They didn't appear to care that people had carry on at the terminal despite saying it was going to cost way more to check at the terminal than online. So some people had paid, other didnt. That seemed to irritate some of those who had paid as we talked about this with other people on the flight. I probably could have brought a full size carry on and not had to pay for it, but who knows. On our way back, we were 30min early on 5:45AM flight from ORLANDO, GREAT RIGHT?...but because Frontier did not have their act together, there was no terminal for us to unload from. We actually then waited on the tarmac for over an hour waiting for Frontier to back a plane out that was not even flying until later that afternoon. Our seats in our row did not recline back. I dont know if that was part of the low budget thing or something was broken. We were not in front of an exit row. There was not actually a button to push, so I assume it was part of the low budget thing and they just don't recline. On check in, more cost issues come up - pick a seat...not just a seat for things like extra leg room or up front. They will make you pay for a middle seat next to the toilet if you want it. No one wants that seat, but if you want to sit next to the people in your party, you are going to have to pay for it. I wouldnt recommend it to anyone. I was going to give it a little bit of a slide b/c I knew that it was a budget airline, but, after all the nickle and dime issues, when we had to wait for an hour on the tarmac, I blew an internal fuse and just made my overall bad experience, worse."
Cons: "Did not get even water. No phone or tablet use with airline mode when they said available and my things were correct."
Pros: "on time,friendly crew."
Cons: "RUDE FEMALE PASSENGER AND HER HUSBAND PICKING/HARRASSING A 15 YEAR OLD MALE (WHO WAS UNACCOMPANIED AND ON HIS FIRST EVER FLIGHT) TO THE POINT WHERE THE COUPLE HAD TO BE MOVED TO ANOTHER ROW....THIS IS AT 5:30AM!!"
Cons: "The fact that i got sick that week and had to canncel my flight for me and my wife , and our dog had to get a spline and tumor removed , on the day of the flight going up. called yous and yous transfered me over to frontier, you gave me back a small piece of my money with a 90 day restriction , or I loose it all...so our dog is doing much better were happy for that and today i'm almost over this bug, ...I'll use you again in the future"
Cons: "The flight was delayed"
Cons: "Fee's for luggage and carry ons. In other airline its already included Fee's for luggage and carry ons. In other airline its already included Delayed flight"
Pros: "The flight was uncomfortable, chairs don't recline, even the 3 ounces of apple juice wasn;t free although the dude did give me some water so that was nice.They charge you for every little thing based on a business model I like to call Pettiness. The one thing they didn't charge the lady in the next seat for was her 50 pound kid who rode on her lap. And the website for checkin and buying baggage was glitchy and difficult to navigate."
Pros: "The ease of boarding. The staff was friendly. Better than AA"
Cons: "The drinks and snacks aren't complimentary anymore?! I asked for juice and was charged $2.00, it's just sad and outrageous; the inflation of prices."
Pros: "The plane went to the right city."
Cons: "Got a middle seat both ways. Not very comfortable."
Cons: "The gate was very rude and refused to get a supervisor. The flight was closed early.we did not get home for two day .purchased another flight from American cost 500.00. Still did not make the connection. Still at the airport attempting to return to STL. Horrible costly experience."
Cons: "The initial price did not include a free seat . Had to pay $16.00 extra for a seat."
Pros: "It was cheap and left on time and arrived early. Crew was polite, pilot was funny. Can't really rate the food since I didn't buy any. There was no entertainment."
Pros: "On time"
Cons: "they lost my bag for 36 hours and ruined my weekend in Las Vegas"
Pros: "Nothing."
Cons: "I don't have respect for a company that doesnt take care of its paying customers. The 45-minute pre-board rule is almost criminal. It's hidden deep into their website where no one can see. And for business travelers like me, you don't always get to the airport before 45 minutes before as you bounce from meeting to meeting. Never flying Frontier again after they stole hundreds of dollars from me."
