The staff were great, no screens on the back of seats and the connection for the films on your own devices, was not great.

I couldn't get on this flight. they didn't wait for me!! Bad communication between Alska airline staff.

Smooth flight, comfy seats. The only issue inhad was Trying to connect to in-flight wifi was a little chaotic otherwise it was great

The seats felt spacious but unfortunately the seat I had wouldn't recline. The in-flight WiFi entertainment was pretty impressive and I liked that i could use my bluetooth headphones vs having to remember my wired ones.

Don’t know how flight was….we missed it because of delay and insult to injury our connecting flight left early!

Woman behind me and her kid kept coughing and kicking my seat

Pros: "Nice quiet flight"
Cons: "Crew member attitude specifically regarding passengers in the emergency rows"
Pros: "I like the new regional jets. Super good experience overall."
Pros: "The crew were very professional and friendly. The comfort of the seating was great as well."
Cons: "Limited options of entertainment for a 10.5 hour flight. I was happy that I downloaded a lot of content on my devices before my trip. Everything on the flight had a purchase option but got rather spendy to get headphones, entertainment, additional food & drink."

In flight breakfast sandwich unexpected, no charge and very good. Economical ticket price. All good.

Pros: "They held the connection to Maui for us even though we were an hour late. Much appreciated! The flight attendants were super!"
Cons: "Nothing; all good"
Pros: "Short island hop but still great staff is just HAPPY"
Pros: "Crew was friendly."
Cons: "We were late leaving the gate in LA. Now we have been sitting on the plane for 45 minutes waiting for our gate in Honolulu."
Pros: "An entirely unexceptional airline that provides zero amenities for such a long flight."
Cons: "Charge me $20 more a seat and provide a meal and in-flight entertainment."
Pros: "Flight included snacks and breakfast. Towards the end of the flight we were surprised by complimentary rum punch drink"
Pros: "The flight was smooth considering the weather. The crew was great and attentive."
Cons: "I wish I was able to hang my wedding dress in a closet rather than folding it up and putting it in the overhead storage."
Pros: "No line to check out bags, hassle free to board, easy to find out seats, friendly staff. LOVE the USB charger in the seats and the complimentary “rum punch”!"
Cons: "Cabin could have been a degree or two warmer, it was very chilly. Seats in general cabin were very close together and we couldn’t get out of the seat when the seat was declined in front of us...we’re average sized humans and were pretty scrunched."
Pros: "I like that you could watch TV, movies, or listen to music."
Cons: "When we arrived to SFO the flight was delayed for mechanical issues. When they couldn't fix the plane they had to fly another one from the Island to get us. This resulted in over a 14 hour delay and ruining our plans for our first day. The wing in SFO was all under construction so if you wanted to get anything you had to leave security and go back through it over and over."
Cons: "My surfboard bag was ripped and all straps were broken and was then patched up with duct tape!!! What the F#€*?!! It looked like it fell off the plane and was run over. Plus my bike box was torn to bits and patched with duct tape and was cut open by someone’s knife, I ended up loosing bike parts because of this. Horrible bag handling by the crew!! This was all noticed when I picked up my bags in Auckland"

Our actual Flight was great & smooth but it was delayed for 4 hours and Jetblue weren't able to accommodate us in the earlier flight. That was Awful. I lost work/clients because of this delay

Pros: "The seats were great and the crew was also good."
Cons: "The sound system at the seat I was assigned was not operational."
Pros: "Snacks and new interior on A320"
Cons: "Almost 4 hour delay and no Wi-Fi. When I complained to JetBlue I received a pathetic $15 credit."
Pros: "Crew was amazing flight was fast and seats are comfy"
Pros: "Female attendant was personable. Decent legroom but tray was broken."
Cons: "Was told by attendant they’re NOT supposed to help female guests with urging luggage overhead. Didn’t know headphones had to be bought to watch movies."
Pros: "I was to tired to even flight more than 9 hours in the airport was not in my plans"
Cons: "If they would of speak with honest and not tell us it was not pilot available that was very unprofessional and unacceptable"
Pros: "Jet blue has better leg space than many other domestic flights I have taken. It was very comfortable"
Pros: "Crew was very polite and accommodating"
Cons: "Flight was delayed 4 times. We had to cancel other reservations and wasted a day traveling instead of a quick 4 hr plane ride."
Pros: "Loved the variety of food offered, amount of legroom"
Cons: "Was awake, just completely skipped over by attendant for drinks"
Pros: "JetBlue's free Wi-Fi and comfortable seats really make JetBlue a domestic airliner unlike any other."

The flight was overbooked and the staff at the gate started calling for volunteers to drop out and offering incentives. That delayed the flight

Delta planes have the WORST seat comfort of any plane in history. It's the opposite of ergonomic, in every sense. They also recline minimally, are covered in a vinyl and have no feet rests. Then the disembarking process is chaotic and time consuming (because of the way they load the plane and deal with luggage). Overall, somewhat frustrating but we arrived safely :)

There was no wifi even after my husband paid for wifi it wasn’t working. The plane looked and felt old.

Update the cabin with tv screens or at least music sources.

The brakes on the A220 are sensitive and uncomfortably grabby

Pros: "Delta is the airline to fly if you have to fly (like I did) during a pandemic. They made sure at every turn we felt as safe as possible. They had passengers distanced from each other the whole time, handed out sanitizing wipes as we walked on the plane, made sure folks kept their masks on, gave us individual little baggies with snacks and water bottles that also had individual hand sanitizer packets. I felt so much more safe flying Delta on my way home to Hawaii in July than I did when I flew American Airlines on my way to the mainland in June."
Pros: "I like flying with Delta, it's just I was not feeling well and our flight got delayed and delayed and delayed. We finally made it on and the extra comfort was great"
Cons: "The food selections not so great. The sandwich was hard. Could use more options."
Cons: "Too hot. Bathrooms were dirty. No leg space in comfort+."
Pros: "Entertainment"
Cons: "Flight wasn't full. I could have been seated somewhere else since passenger next to me was quite large and invading my personal space"
Cons: "Bring ear buds if you want to watch/listen to a movie. Delta changes for ear buds Everything else was fine"

Delta gave out earbuds for in-flight entertainment, which was nice. But the legroom seems to decrease every year.

Considering that our flight was changed to a day ahead and we were not properly notified, we showed up a day late and had a HORRENDOUS experience trying to figure out what happened and how to get home back to Canada from New York. After spending hours on hold with Westjet and Kayak, we came to the conclusion that we had to BUY new tickets to get home that cost DOUBLE what we originally paid. Not to mention a last seconr hotel room that cost $500 CAD for ONE night because of WestJets mistake. After meals and final costs, we had to reach out to our families for nearly $2000 CAD to get home. How was our return flight? We didnt get to take it...absolutely defeated and furious with both Kayak and WestJet who kept bouncing us back and forth on the phones with NO resolution. Unacceptable. We will be looking into compensation over this.

Airflow at seats was very weak, so it was hot for 5 hours flight. Food was weird, serving breakfast menu in business class for dinner?? Staff was not attentive.

Flying with WestJet consistently feels like being squeezed into a small tin can, and I still haven’t gotten over the feeling that it sucks. The staff clearly is just doing a job that they do not really want to do. And the more I fly with WestJet, the more I realize that the good deal I got on the flight is not worth the experience. I can say I got from point A to point B safely.. but the time I was on the plane was so lacking in comfort and positivity, that I couldn’t keep doing this too much longer. I want to break up with WestJet. It really is you WestJet.. this just isn’t working out.

Pros: "Crew was great"
Cons: "No entertainment at all, read the brochure a few times"
Cons: "I was delayed a few houts.they could let me fly earlier."
Pros: "We arrived where we wanted to go"
Cons: "Separated my son and I into middle seats. Made us sit on the tarmac for 30 minutes due a completely predictable issue. We should have been allowed to stay at the gate. Seating is horribly cramped. Less that friendly flight attendants. Arrived late on a red eye in perfect weather. Otherwise delightfu"
Pros: "It booked the wrong date and I had to repurchase the ticket. So all the savings were lost plus a ton more. Last time I use this service."
Cons: "The date and flight I picked were the right ones. I’m sure it was my own fault so it is what it is. I’ll just book through the airlines directly and pay the extra money and ensure the flight is the day I picked."
Cons: "The flight was full and my carry-on had to be checked due to other passengers bringing oversized carry-on. The beverage service did not occur until 10 minutes before landing. Options were limited to water only. The flight was extremely rough and the pilot slammed the plane on landing."
Pros: "Crew was funny and friendly and efficient"
Cons: "I dunno if it's something WestJet rules dictate for landing, but EVERY WestJet flight I've been on, the landing into YXJ is short and very hard!! I'm NOT at all an AC fan, but AC, CMA all land longer and MUCH smoother...in all weather conditions"
