Business class should have free wi-fi. Food was horrible

Business class should have free wi-fi. Food was horrible

Amazing crew, safe and clean plane. Downsides were related to WiFi that only worked 3h in a 12h flight and I paid for entire flight and the food that was too intense, nothing clean to eat. Route was a little bumpy during most of the time.

Finnair was ok. But some things were pretty bad: 1. Crew was not friendly, especially a crew member named, Maria. She woke me up while I was deep asleep by force just to let me know that 2 people can’t be on the same seat (my toddler and me) for sleeping. 2. There was no vegetarian option in the menu so I had to eat bread for one meal 3. They didn’t have an option for child meal

The food was delicious. There has been a major improvement here in the last few years. Excellent, friendly service. An enjoyable experience.

Late, dirty cabin, charging ports broken, uncomfortable, no tomato juice, barely edible food

The crew was friendly, and the flight landed on time

It was okay. The airplane was a little smaller than a flight from Thailand to Helsinki.

This was an absolutely exceptional flight. The flight attendants were extremely attentive and very friendly. They seemed to go out of their way to make us comfortable and to make sure that we had everything we needed., We were in business and were very happy with the size and the details for our pods. We would definitely recommend Finnair and will definitely be flying with them again.

Any flight that lands safely is a good flight. However our leg from Helsinki was delayed 1 hour with no explanation. The delay would not allow us to make our connection to Cincinnati. I was informed by American Airlines that our Cincinnati flight was rescheduled for the following day. I immediately made a non refundable hotel reservation in Dallas. Upon exiting the plane at Dallas I was given a hotel voucher. Nice, but I can't get a refund on the hotel I booked. A little communication would have been helpful. Food on Finnair is below quality of Korean Air.

Everything was quite easy from boarding to landing - the staff was great and service was excellent too!

My biggest recurring disappointment is that I buy a pre-assihned seat while pucrhasing the ticket and then when checking in it disappeared and I have to buy it again. That's very disappointing and actually a reason I will actively avoid SAS in the future

SAS cancelled my flight SK910 on Sep. 21,2026 because a construction crew from New Jersey Transit accidentally cut through a fiber optic cable which enabled the control tower at Newark Intl. Airport to communicate with all flights. Over 600 flights were cancelled including mine. My boarding code was B2WJMJ, I demand a refund of all monies spent toward this reservation!

More movie options More friendly responds to passengers requests More stops from crew inside airplane

Didn't care much for the food but maybe that's just because I'm American and the food was very European. Would have liked a second alcoholic beverage service in a 7-8 hour flight. I was offered two wines to have with dinner though and should have accepted both. I didn't realize they would only offer alcohol once. Lights were never turned off in the cabin for sleeping. Flight was delayed several hours with zero explanation from SAS. However, the flight attendants were fantastic. We were traveling with a friend who needed oxygen and they were very attentive and helped him throughout the flight. That was greatly appreciated. The pillows and blankets are great. Gift bags with toothbrush etc so nice! This was our first time traveling Premium so alot of perks we were used to getting! The flight was smooth and I loved watching the planes location on the seat screen and being able to watch movies etc. overall it was great I would definitely recommend SAS to anyone and hope to fly with you again sometime.

Food was excellent and plentiful! Cabin crew seemed to truly enjoy their job. Interacted with passengers with a friendly nature. Very pleasant flight

they had to land at Dulles instead of EWR and had no one to help all of the stranded travellers the crew was rude and not helpful as well

The layovers / connections were too short and too long. I SPRINTED to make the connection from OSL-JFK and then SAT for over 6 hours from JFK-BUF. I don’t mind a longer layover more than I want to RUN to make my next connection

Our vacation started with horribly, 48hr prior to departure SAS airline cancelled our return flight giving us little to no alternative options.

The layover was very long. Other than that, great trip so far

Elderly traveler with disability was bumped from extra legroom to economy with little legroom. He couldn’t bend his knee to fit in the seat. Very uncomfortable for a 7 hour flight and will be reported to DOT. Then the food was disgusting. Boiled chicken with boiled rice and steamed veggies. 3 slices of carrot and one broccoli. We couldn’t eat it. No salt or pepper provided. Disgusting.

Too little snack and drink for almost 6:00 hr flight. Should have serve some food.

At 5:46 am EST, when I arrived at my departing gate, your gqte agent told me that I could not board the flight because the flight is closed 15 minuets before departure. However, the same gate agent escorted a woman (standing right next to me) at the gate onto the flight which, proves that I could have boarded the flight just like the woman I watched board the flight. The gate agent stated "she was here before you". 1-why was she not already on the flight & 2-how and why was she able to board a "closed" flight that I was not. Additionally, although 6am EST was the time of departure, the plane did not 'pullback' from the gate until 6:15am EST The same gate agent told me that the "boarding closes 15 before departure time" is printed on my boarding pass. This statement is not displayed on my digital boarding pass that I downloaded from AA.com. She also told me that this in stated on AA.com whent I booked my ticket however, since am travelling for work, I booked my flight thru my firm's (Deloitte Consulting) corporate travel app, not AA.com.

What an amazing plane! We flew a 787 to Miami. Although the Internet was not functioning, it was a wonderful flight.

Although it was a smaller plane, the flight was quick and uneventful.

This trip on American was the WORST I have ever experienced. The plan was LATE taking off from Tucson due to mechanical issues. It caused me to arrive late in Dallas, so I tried to move flights so I would not miss my dinner meeting. First attempt, that flight was delayed, Second attempt, that flight was also delayed. Got back on original flight, the mechanical issue was NOT fixed, so we de-planed and had to find the new gate. Overall, was which was 4 hours delayed and missed the dinner meeting. Friday return, flight from Orlando was on time and landed early. Then the next flight was delayed due to crew coming in late, and them waiting on other passengers. After 90 minutes of delay, we boarded, and then were informed the Fist Officer could not fly due to time constraints. At 12:15 AM we were offered a hotel for a 4:20 boarding flight. Not happening. DFW was COLD and no place to sleep. Plane delayed again to 6:50, but was late taking off AGAIN. Finally landed in Tucson at around 8AM. Should be refunded 75% of the ticket costs due to negligence, nothing more.

Same the delay was not ideal and the credits to move flights was not sufficient

The delay was not handled well and the offers to move flights and get travel credit was also not ideal.

Plane was in good shape, multiple passes from the drink cart, and one of the smoothest flights I've had in a while.

We left nearly 40 minutes late, which is a long time when you're just seated and waiting. Otherwise, it went well.

American eagle and American Airlines are bad, cancelations, delays and no customer service

Great experience in Saga Premium. Food was tasty and felt fresh. Seat was comfortable (enough) - would have wanted a layflat seat.

The plane was 100% full. Too cramped and difficult for stewards to do their work on such a large plane.

The flight itself was excellent, but getting to the plane was literally an exercise in pain. My wife needs a wheelchair and can only stand/walk for short periods before having extreme pain. We had to take a bus to a loading platform and use a terrible elevator to get up to the plane. Meanwhile the rest of the bus were using the stairs. This meant the people who needed to sit down were stuck standing at the end of the line while everyone else boarded. My wife was in agony.

It was amazing. I sat in First Class as a Saga Premium member, and my service was top notch. It was wonderful. I only recently joined Saga Club since I do travel to Scandinavia often and enjoy flying through Reykjavik on Iceland Air versus other ways of travelling to Europe. This was my first trip sitting in first class, which I honestly wasn’t expecting!

There were no places to sit at the gate. Most people had to sit on the floor or stand waiting for the gate to open and board. We were told we needed passport and the person hardly looked at them. Maybe for 2 seconds. No announcement made asking to board by row or group. On a 5.5 hour flight the crew only came through the cabin 2 times offering water and buy everything else. For the price of the ticket at least offer free soda! The airliner was very comfortable

Plus—newer aircraft, luggage arrived on time, adequate legroom. Minus-No snacks on three hour and five hour flights, long wait for a shuttle from the terminal to the airplane, indifferent flight crew

No food was served for 7.5 hrs flight. When our flight changed to other airlines due to wether issue, our seats booked with no checked in luggage when I already payed for. We end up to pay 90 euro per suitcase.

Bad. Flights were late, by hours. No clear information was provided even until the delayed boarding time.

The ground staff was very helpful and the flight attendant as short but good.

Not good. It’s a terrible budget experience and the crew were not very helpful. The plane was so hot and uncomfortable and the entertainment was awful (not even headphones offered and antiquated jacks that don’t work with new iPhones). I was placed on standby for my flight home for no apparent reason, causing me to be put in the worst seat and at the end of the plane. They did not try to fix the situation.

The flight from FRA to SFO was uncomfortable. The crew allowed people to change seats after boarding finished, but then made some people move back to their seats but not others, which resulted in my wife and I having to sit in two middle seats for an 11 hour flight. The entertainment system was not working well throughout the flight, and stopped working completely around hour 8.

Inflight food quality is definitely declining. Only one hot food was served and rest of were boxed meals. That’s not how was done before. Better to fly Asia or Qatar carriers for better service.

Economy plus on a long flight with Lufthansa was wonderful. Service starts with a pillow, blanket, slippers and care package waiting on your seat. An it just gets better from there.

The Linate Milano flight was delayed. Landed at Frankfort at 12:10. Then took the bus on the tarmac and the bus ride was about 20 minutes due to the airport traffic. Got off bus went to passport control, used the kiosk scanned passport, took photo and finger prints and proceeded to wait in line. I asked the attendant that I had a connecting flight at 12:50 his respond was you have to ask the other travelers in line to let you go ahead. There should be a better system. Passed passport control and the gate was at Z69 to the other end of airport. Ran there out breath, I was last person to board due to a mechanical:electrical issue plane took off 2 hours later. Lufthansa need to a better job with international connecting flight. A 1-15 minutes is not enough considering the doors typically close 15 minutes prior to take off. So the window is reduced to 1 hour with all you have to go through with a slight delay it is not enough time. The crew on the flight was excellent and received exceptional customer service.

Loved the towel at the end. Service was frequent and perfect.

Horrible. Would not assist w hotel or new flights when Catania leg canceled

They left a little late, contributing to our missed flight.

Absolutely horrible. We missed both of our connecting flights from Frankfort due to the new border control lines. Lufthansa had us running and walking around the airport trying to rebook. They were not prepared to offer us a hotel room for the night, but finally relented when I said I was done with Lufthansa, most were not so lucky. I also put put of the blame in Kayak. You need to update which connecting flights you are offering to allow for more time to deal with the mess that is border control in the EU.

Cheapflights did not forward the payment for seat assignments, and my partner and I were separated and given center (B and E) seats. Will be requesting a refund.

All was good. I would have preferred free drinks besides water (coffee/tea).
