They moved my seat without my consent and they won’t refund the money I spent on it. I paid for a front row aisle seat and they moved me to a center seat in the last row of premium economy. They were very rude about everything and nothing like Singapore Airlines or Korean Airways which I flown before.

They moved my seat without my consent and they won’t refund the money I spent on it. I paid for a front row aisle seat and they moved me to a center seat in the last row of premium economy. They were very rude about everything and nothing like Singapore Airlines or Korean Airways which I flown before.

Communication about delays was not very good. Crew and staff were excellent!

SAN-NRT was excellent experience with crew helping and assisting in all aspects of comfort. But NRT-BAN was not that comfortable with no blankets and pillows provided and treating it more like premier economy class. This has been the pattern I have observed where JAL uses non-trained crew, uncomfortable seats, restrooms not working, locking up window seats, business class comforts taken away on NRT-BAN route. Overall quality of service goes downhill on NRT-BAN flight. Not sure why?

I had a hard time checking in as my first and middle names lacked a space. The vendor spent a long time fixing it with the JAL. This should not have been a problem. Check in at ohare was good as Regina was very helpful and kind.

Dreamliner is an excellent aircraft. Great seats in business. Flight attendant Alex had a bored, sullen attitude in serving customers. Difficult to get his attention and very slow to respond to a simple request for water. Spoiled the experience a bit as the AA motto is “we’re here because of you”. Attitude needs some adjustment!

The best part was the staff. They are kind and gracious and made it a good flight.

Reasonable price, great service, highly recommended. i arrived well rested!

Since I traveled on my birthday, they gave me a gift and a card. How thoughtful and caring.

Our flight was canceled, then they moved us to a different flight number yet we didn’t receive notifications timely. We had to find out the latest on our own / later AA sent a text with the updated info..

I wouldn’t know, I tried to contact you days before to reschedule my flight back to Okinawa but you left me on hold for 2 hours. I tried calling multiple times and not once did you pick up. I had to spend 2000 dollars on a one way ticket back to Okinawa because I couldn’t get ahold of you guys to change my flight.

Paid for seat assignments that did not in any way match seats received, and had to upgrade at checkin

All was great on flight to Tokyo. The ROOM setup was very comfortable. Definitely will try to do again.

I thought I purchased premium economy but got an economy seating for an expensive airfare from Kayak. Not able to pay extra to upgrade at all

On time, food was great. Didn’t wake me up when they saw me sleeping and as soon as I used the toilet, they came up and asked me if I wanted dinner. Right on!

I was expecting to fly in a Japanese airline because that what I bought, very disappointed finding out the change of airline without any explanation.

Excellent. There were setbacks, but it had nothing to do with the crew. Mostly, mechanical which delayed our flight.

It was so disappointed trip by unexpected company's fault delay. It had taken 3 hours delay for mechanical maintenance plus another 3 hours for bad weather.

SEA HND sector internet only worked for the last 2.5hrs of flight….. never had this kind of incident with other airlines

12 of the 14 hours were in the dark, all during daylight. Didn’t use my light because it disturbed other people it was illuminating. 14 hours sitting upright in a cramped space was horrible.

I’ve always had pleasant experiences with ANA and that has made me a loyal customer.

The main issue was the quantity of the drink. The hostess gave only half cup full of the soft drink. I was thirsty and was expecting full glass like every other time.

attendents were rude and the boarding was disjointed and poor

The trip to Harrisburg from Detroit was extremely uncomfortable because of heat

Great quik boarding, friendly gate agent and crew. Let early

We sat at the gate for over 30 minutes, with no indication as to why

All was fine. Small plane so no food or entertainment.

Very aggressive at the boarding area of only allowing one person passed a line/ sign

Delayed 7 hours Crew and employees were nice Extra long flight but at least we got in

No wheel chair as requested at Atlanta arrival on first flight.

Crew was great. Friendly, calm, interesting, happy to be there. That makes a huge difference. Plane was very quiet. Also quite empty so I had three seats to sleep across

Seats are uncomfortable and left me in pain in my tailbone area. I got about one hour of sleep.

overall a very good travel experience - left on time, arrived early. Mostly a smooth flight. Polaris seats were excellent, very good service and nice food with options.

Flight delayed and then cancelled (due to mechanical issues + weather). Poor communication. No one there to help with rebooking and accommodations for the night we had to stay in Newark. Our luggage was taken off the original flight and apparently left on the tarmac in the rain. Items were soaking rain. The following day, the flight was also delayed due to mechanical issues. The second year in a row that I had to sleep in an airport flying from Tokyo to Newark due to mechanical issues compounded by bad weather. Partly bad luck and partly just poor service.

This flight is a quick way to get to Chicago, but a bit expensive.

We got delayed three hours and nobody thought to have the bathroom fixed while we were sitting waiting to board? took a full hour to have maintenance come and check it off. Had to shut the bathroom down twice so that the pilots could go to the bathroom. Everyone missed their connections.

Not good - outbound flight was delayed and missed my connection even though I got to the gate after running through the airport - the agent would not let me on because the door was closed (flight had not left). There was no notification from United - overall experience was very disappointing. Additionally, I was downgraded from first class to coach on the alternative flight

I liked that the flight was nonstop from ORD to CIU for $200 round trip.

Some sort of compensation for missing work because of a cancelled flight that was United’s fault

I was told we'd have a hot breakfast option in first class, so I chose not get a hot breakfast. It was a very strange meal, but the fresh fruit was very good quality. Service was excellent from ORD to ELP. No service from MBS to ORD, not even water. However, when flying American from FNT to ORD, which is a shorter flight, they at least pass out snacks and offer water.

Staff friendly and app worked really well. Modest delays were frustrating

The flight from Chicago to Orlando was delayed inordinately. My whole journey from Lansing to MCO took 9.5 hours is just annoying and frustrating. We can understand the delays may be beyond their control, but overall the journey was so much waiting until reached to MCO. This is NOT the first time for me - but at least 80% of the time in this route. I barely remember reaching places on time.

I sat in seat 22D near the back right of the plane. My phone battery was getting low, so I plugged my charger into the power outlets below the seats in front of me. They did not work. When I asked the flight attendant whether this was the case for the whole plane he said, "No. It's only this one. It hasn't worked for months". This should be noted to whomever services this plane so that maintenance can fix this for future passengers. I was on Flight AA5614 from Grand Rapids to Philadelphia on Wednesday, September 23, 2026.

The passenger in front of of me reclined their seat back all the way the entire flight. Their headrest was in my face the entire flight! I barely had room for the little plastic cup of water to fit on my tray table; can you make the seats and space between the rows any smaller??? You can’t even get up to use the restroom! Worst flight I’ve had in a very long time!

I was on a small regional flight from Detroit to Philadelphia. When we landed the outside cruise needed to turn something off with the engine, which took quite a long time. Then, when they allowed us to get off the plane it was outside. They took their time, unloading all the luggage and waited till they unloaded all the luggage before they brought it over to us. It was 9 o’clock at night freezing cold out, and there was no proactive hustle to try to get people their luggage. It was really one of the worst experiences I think I’ve ever had with American until a manager came over. I don’t think they were going to even consider pulling the luggage over to the people that had been waiting outside for at least 10 minutes in the freezing cold.

They should have allowed for extra time to de-ice the plane before boarding passengers. This delayed us about 10-15 mins after we boarded. Overall experience was fine. Crew was friendly and on top of everything. We didn’t have any issues during the flight.

Everything was excellent. I loved my flight Thank you so much 😊

I wish the indicator on the side of each row was easier to decipher regarding which seat was the window, middle and row seat. Otherwise, no complains.

Turbulence was bad and flight attendants gossiped about going to the bar and dating. Could have better awareness.

First of all the check in was terrible . No customer service treated us like we are lucky to fly on American . And kayak never notified us of flight changes , I think we got a text at 3 in the morning before our flight . Charges for seats and luggage ! Really flying is just plain stressful .
