flight was delayed due to failure of airline to prepare: we sat in plane without air conditioning and without water for more than an hour while we waited to board passengers because airline was not prepared to check in the size of the flight it had booked. then our bags got left behind in iceland because the transfer happened too quickly and the airline's baggage subcontractor in boston mishandled our bags and another fiasco ensued.
clean. Seat covers nice and clean. furniture color scheme pleasant.
1. Seat distance by far too less.
2. seat width on the borderline of being acceptable.
3.. No entertainment, not even a flight info screen available.
4. Only instant coffee available. If it is instant, cappuccino or other café specialities should be available. Emirates and Etihad make the example.
5. Food okay - but not for french airline. No innovation, no thought in it. Standard "how do I get the cattle fed the cheapest possible" food.
6. Electrical / USB / Network plugs or WIFI unknown.
The entertainment options were more than satisfying, dinner was nice, cabin crew was very friendly.
The flight was delayed with two hours, which of course can happen but we heard about this delay only at the airport, although the many media (app/website) to check the flight details, did not have the updated flight details available, a pitty because we could have spend these hours outside of the airport. Next to that a more specific explanation could be mentioned when choosing the seats in the airplane, now suggestion is given that people from all lengths can fit the regular seats when in fact this is definitely not the case! Traveling with three persons with lengths over 1,80m, their knees touched the front seat in a normal position, which is not comfortable when flying 10 hours. It would be better to inform customers upfront, then we would have reserved an XL seat.
I wish it truly were Finnair instead of American: The seat, the legroom, the fact that you have to pay 20% more to have the same rotten seat 12 rows further up front, the food that's barely fit for human consumption, the presence of 20 year old cathode screens that can't be watched but do prevent the cabin being dark, etc.
Old fashioned seat, no usb to charge my phone, battery went ;off and couldn't make a call to my family to assure them of a half way safe trip while stopping over for almost 6 hours in Ataturk Intl. Airport, Turkey.
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. :)
Very smooth ride. I liked that they left water/ juice/ snacks downstairs in between meal service. The crew was super friendly, the entertainment selection was awesome too.
The crew didn't seem quite ready for offering refreshments, and I had to go and ask for water several times. The snacks weren't very ubstantial, and having a good 4-5 hours in between meals was hard for me as I had been traveling for a long time already.
I flew with multiple international airlines this summer and KLM was by far the best. The crew of KLM were exceptionally attentive, polite, and helpful. The meals were by far the most enjoyable of my airplane travel meals; and I learned that KLM does not charge for it's drinks on international flights, unlike most other international airlines that I traveled with this summer. In a sentence, flying with KLM was a very pleasant experience and I will recommend this airlines to others.
If I were going to list any negatives, I would say that the little travel pillow that was given to the passengers was so thin that it was practically useless, but I brought my own with me, so I was none the less comfortable.
Very friendly and the food and drinks never stopped and no additional charges, a very nice experience over the bargain airlines, free in-flight movies, and entertainment, no cost.
The Amsterdam airport is super disorganized, with rude employees great at making excuses for their incompetence.
The boarding crew really struggled to organized the boarding and wouldn't really care about people's status. We had to take a bus to the airplane, and even though both plane's entrances were open, they sent everybody to the front entrance.
The comfort of the plane was horrendous, with seats over 20 years old and their business class was the same as the coach, but with no one sitting in the middle (can you get any lower than this?)
The flight attendant woke me up to shove a food tray that I didn't want.
We had to wait over 45 minutes after the plane landing to start seeing some luggage show up on the conveyor bell.
The overall flight experience make southwest look like a luxury airline. This was my first and last time flying on KLM.
Liked the peppy, retro outfits. Boarding has no process: first come, first serve- seems to work just fine (versus all the Group numbering other airlines do). Plenty of room for carry-ons and overheads, and they actually try to bag people's bags before they get on the plane that should go underneath the seat in front of them in order to save overhead space.
No complimentary snacks and no on-flight magazine. No TVs or phone wifi for that matter, so bring a book or be ready to snooze!
They pushed me back to a flight 24 hours later so that I missed my first day of classes, and they lost my luggage in the process. A truly awful experience.
