The price of the tickets isn't matching the flight experience. No matter how long the flight is, you're only getting pretzels. The flight attendants looked unkept and over it.

The price of the tickets isn't matching the flight experience. No matter how long the flight is, you're only getting pretzels. The flight attendants looked unkept and over it.

WiFi on the flight was not working. Thus, entertainment options were limited.

Flight was awfully bumpy and landing was a bit jolting. I was in the restroom when snacks and drinks were served and was not asked if i wanted any. I had to ask for water finally.

Crew was great flight was great baggage claim was a failure. It took over 1 hour for bags to arrive. Poor communication poor effort when I spoke to the supervisor about the delay

Planes are aged. The wifi is unreliable and on many fights, no-existent. The flight attendants were very good.

I had a wonderful flight, but the only thing that annoyed me was how crowded TSA was. I still believe airports and all planes work together to bunch everyone together to drive up cost.

Easy to book and to get check in and get on and off.

Everything worked well. Crew was as entertaining as is possible on a plane flight. Southwest still has good legroom:

Glad flight made it out. So many delays due to hurricane. everyone did a great job.

The flight was delayed about 20 minutes, but this was an evening flight, so it comes as no surprise. This flight came a good 1.5 days ahead of hurricane Helene which was still far out in the gulf. However, the flight never removed the seated buckle light. The staff announced from the beginning that due to the bad weather (I suppose the hurricane a day and a half away) they would have to do an abbreviated service with water and a snack. I am fine with their water and snack offering, but this was one of the smoothest flights I've had in years. If Southwest believes a flight like this requires everyone to remain seated, then all of their flights should remain buckled for the entire flight. I cannot help but wonder if things like this are a sneaky way to cut back on expenses since the airline is currently under a lot of pressure to reduce costs.

This had nothing to do with Delta… The flights were on time and flawless. The service was excellent. We purchased seats in (aisle/middle) comfort plus since this was a cross country flight. Unfortunately, the woman seated at the window was 300+ pounds and, as might be expected, covered up about a third of the middle seat also. there was absolutely nothing that Delta could have done about that… I just don’t know what the answer should be. If you purchase a seat, you should should be able to use the entire seat and not just the portion that someone else is not sitting/oozing in. Disappointing…there should be something that could be done….I'm just not sure what solution could be.

The worst part was I was NOT allowed in the lounge even though I was holding a first class ticket and have a premium American Express card. I have flown Business or First Class with many airlines. Delta is the ONLY one who does not extend this courtesy to anyone except people who hold the very expensive American Express card. As a result, I won’t fly Delta if I have any other choice.

The Dekta Rep that checked us in was great. She's very personable, pleasant, and can tell she enjoys her job.

The young man who was our flight attendant in first class was lazy and did not do his job well at all. Never offered drinks upon boarding - actually I take that back... said "are you okay with water" as if I do not want to get you anything else, only passed the snacks around once, got my drink order wrong and then never offered a second round of drinks. He was the worst I have ever seen on Delta and we fly a lot.

Flight left early and arrived early. the whole trip was excellent.

Seats were really tight and the seat belts did not give enough slack.

Newer plane, relatively easy boarding, not a full flight and was told that we could not be moved up because of weight and balance issues. Otherwise, a very good experience.

Everything was great. Great service, excellent communication, and early arrival

Great flight. On-time, comfortable, clean aircraft, and offered snacks pre-flight to plan for a potentially turbulent route. I wish there was Wi-Fi an all Delta Aircrafts but for a short flight this is not much of a problem.

I sat in comfort plus. It was fine. Seats were comfortable. I got drinks and snacks.

Cancelled flight with no specific instructions to get a boarding pass for another flight. The whole flight of people were in line for an hour because there was only 1 person to help at the desk. This was unusual for JetBlue.

Except for the 28 minute delay leaving and the earlier reschedule to a later takeoff time the flight was good.

Loved the leg room and tvs screens on the seats and free WiFi. Wish the price was lower and could save by rebooking

The flight was delayed for 4 hours. Once onboard the crew was wonderful.

I rate it is good we had a 4-hour travel delay at one point but JetBlue gave out food vouchers and travel points credits for another flight so they try to make up for it

My encounter with the entertainment services provided on board was moderate; the functionality of the Wi-Fi connection was either sluggish or nonoperational, while the display screens were antiquated and suffered from poor visibility. On the positive side, the cabin exuded a sense of expansiveness, and the crew exhibited amiable and accommodating behavior throughout the journey.

They delayed our flight by 45 minutes and then re-updated the departure time back to normal schedule with no notification, email, or app update causing probably 40 people to miss the flight as they left without us.

terrible. Because I felt very unwell during the flight. How do they leave a woman alone in the middle of 2 men? an obese man who was falling on top of me.

The walk from baggage claim to the taxi is very difficult for older people I will never fly into JFK again. It is physically challenging

We were told that our flight would be delayed for 90+ minutes because of weather, so we went to get something to eat only to have them randomly start boarding 15 minutes after the announcement, with no warning.

The flight to Tokyo AA61 took off about two hours late, but then had to turn back. By that time the crew had to be replaced. Then they kept promising to take off in an hour, then in 3, then switch to the next day.

Crew professional. Easy bag drop off. On time. Good entertainment.

Flight was late and missed connecting flight. They could have better accommodated, but instead did an overnight and had to arrive the next afternoon.

The boarding crew was incredibly helpful getting me on an earlier flight

They have lost any customer service care and support. Terrible airline now and been for awhile.

The flight was delayed leaving Miami. When we arrived in Charlotte, we were unable to park at our scheduled gate. We had to wait another 30-45 minutes before we could park at a different gate. All in all, we were delayed by almost two hours arriving in Charlotte.

the pilot that landed this flight in Philadelphia did an amazing job, the weather was absolutely terrible and we landed safely.

Per usual, flight status, staff courtesy and professionalism were excellent

The seats were crammed and the guy in front of me wouldn't stop reclining. If AA is cramming extra rows in, they need to take away the reclining in coach. My knees were smashed for 4 1/2 hours and I was very close to confronting the passenger in front of me.

AA can't control the weather. But the airplane was hot and stuffy while stuck on the runway with a broken entertainment system.

I love Spirit. New aircraft, great cabin service, the airfares are low cost which helps me visit my hospitalized daughter anytime I can without paying a fortune.

Be quiet! Why do they have to keep talking BS over the microphone?? Enough!

I slept the whole trip but everything else was great

Friendly staff put me at ease with processes, since this was my first time. I would recommend flying on Spirit!

The flight took an extra 30 min to take off because we were waiting for crew to board then it took another 30 min to get off the plane because there was no parking. Just overall ridiculous also please add a head rest my neck was gonna snap off thanks.

Great! First time flying with Spirit and I definitely loved it!

Absolutely Terrible. It was delay after delay after delay. I should have been arriving in Philadelphia at 12:05am from Fort Lauderdale instead I didn’t depart from Fort Lauderdale until 12:33am with no rhyme or reason as to why the flight was delayed. The only compensation we received were 12 dollar meal vouchers which by that time we were already boarding the plane and most of the place in the airport were closed so none of the vouchers got used because we were told that we could not use them on the plane .

The people were wonderful, but I hated the way they over charged for luggage, especially for stops which were charged the same as starting point to final destination.

Horrible. Take off was delayed by an hour. They were letting people board d the plane right before takeoff. I was delayed an hour when I arrived and late for my meeting. Spirit is NEVER on time.

Seamless boarding process, flight was early, crew and passengers nice. Crew was professional as well. Seats are super thing but reasonably comfortable for a 2-3 hrs flight. No on board entertainment, except maybe for paid internet. No water, no snacks. I feel all airlines should offer free water. I didn’t care paying for it, however water is free everywhere in the US and it almost like a basic human right in a civilized society.
