I would say that for international flights, be prepared for a possibly very long walk to your gate after security check. Also, there is an agricultural check for leaving the islands that you have to queue up for before you even get inside the airport. So that is another delay to prepare for. Otherwise, it’s a typical flight, just leave yourself some extra time for these added steps.

Crew was fantastic. Seats were not completely lay flat but still comfortable to watch a show. International food was lobster which was very big but a little tough. The scallop appetizer was delicious. Loved the individual air conditioning vent at each seat. Flight overall was very smooth and very good.

Crew was fantastic. Seats were not completely lay flat but still comfortable to watch a show. International food was lobster which was very big but a little tough. The scallop appetizer was delicious. Loved the individual air conditioning vent at each seat. Flight overall was very smooth and very good.

Staff was friendly but couldn't find way to track them down during flight. Food tried to be gourmet but was just too unusual. Business class seats were hard. Even sitting on the pillow, was still painful. Have to give them credit for on-time flights and decent gate area.

Flight was excellent. Transfer from one airport to another airport for a connecting flight was difficult and stressful.

Overall good except the checkin process at Bangkok airport. Can ANA explain why the line for business class is longer than that for economy? I, BC passenger, had to move from BC line to economy line to get faster service.

Matsuyama to Tokyo is basically a puddle jumper flight, so it was as good as one should expect. No meal, no entertainment, and none expected.

The staff is amazing, I cannot stress that enough! The food is really good and snacks at stations to take for yourselves. Economy seating is fine, not the most comfortable, but our friends in Premium Economy said they were very comfortable! Decent entertainment options, but being built in, you have to use their cheap headsets unless you have your own plug in ones. I only have Bluetooth earbuds.

Seats were extremely cramped even for economy. Food was atrocious. Crew was fine but no follow up, additional drinks offered etc. For a 14 hour flight I expected more.

Boarding was good. Inflight service was good. Alcoholic drinks could have been served free.

Suite lounge in Honolulu is the best lounge in Honolulu. I love the huge bathrooms in ANA first Class on the A380 Honu plane. Japanese meal was outstanding and service was amazing. Everything was just excellent. Can’t wait to fly again

The bed / seat was very hard , not at all comfortable for an 11 hr flight .. food was strange , never have I eaten roast chicken and mash potatoes for breakfast!! Very odd

Very courteous and professional flight attendants. At least from Delhi to Tokyo leg where a good number of passengers are of Indian origin should have some items of Indian cuisine on the menu other than that great experience.

Overall, a solid flight experience. Boarding was quick and efficient, even with a full and overbooked flight. The flight crew did a great job providing attentive and friendly service throughout. I flew in economy, and while the seats were acceptable, they could definitely use more cushioning, especially for a 14-hour flight. By the end, it was quite uncomfortable to remain seated. Legroom was also limited, particularly with a bag stored under the seat and the passenger in front reclining. That said, everything else went smoothly, and I appreciated the professionalism of the crew.

The flight was delightful overall. The check-in and boarding were on smooth and on time. Amenities and staffs were elevated. However, if glasses were served instead of cups, there should be a complete premium.

Sure I would’ve liked a little more space, but it was better than economy. I bring my own food because I have food allergies it would be nice if they offered larger salads or more vegetables instead of starch it was really a good flight. I don’t wanna complain. I’m grateful to fly at all safely. Thank you to the pilots.

Flight crews are very attentive and polite. Cabin and toilets are clean. Food is above average for economy class. We missed our connecting flights because the first flight was delayed, the ground crews at Tokyo were very helpful, providing all the information and support (including cash for our train ticket) to get us to our destination. Very impressive. No wonder they are always at the top ten lists.

Excellent! So happy that the crew members were so helpful and friendly and able to understandably communicate. They’re very receptive with someone like me, with disability. I love that I did not even have to ask for luggage help like, having to place and take down my carry-on luggage in and out of the over-head compartment. Hope, help is extended to disabled passenger(s) through out class classifications they’ve bought; economy or business class it might be. As a disabled person myself, I’m truly of great appreciation of this kind of help. Means a lot !!! Thank you so very much JAL crew. You out done others on this customer service part of the trip. Please continue to do so. From now on, I’ll choose JAL as my airline whenever I have to fly to any southeast asian countries. And I will disseminate my excellent travel experience with you to others.

American Airlines food is horrible. Also, paid to fly JAL on all segments, but received a much lower quality. I was disappointed to learn that we would be using American Airlines on this flight, which has less comfort, entertainment, choices, and lower standard of service. Overall not satisfied.

Food was very mediocre. Economy is pretty uncomfortable. Crew was excellent and responsive.

Not as good as I expected, I couldn't use the screen to watch movies or anything else because it wasn't 'STEADY' AT ALL, it moved every single time that the passenger who sat on that seat moved, that caused me fell dizzy and nauseous when I tried to use it, so I ended up with only sleeping and eating with no entertainment all my haul flight on premium economy seat, plus the passenger who sat next to me, she just loved to spread her very long hair down on my shoulder, face, arm, sometimes her hair just whacked my face till I really wanted to offer her my hairband!, super annoying 😑 and that my bad experience with that flight.

My plans changed and I tried to cancel or change the flight for credit but was giving the run around and denied . Not great

Everything was great. The only issue is unfixable. Seats are too small. 😁🤪

This wasn't my experience with Delta. It was just the Pegasus flight. Seats were very hard. Staff was kinda rough. Not very nice. Charged me for snacks. For a 4 hour flight I would've expected more.

Crew was nice, meal was good. Entertainment had to be rebooted 3 times and still did not work. Turns out there was residue on screen, it needed to be cleaned to prevent the touchscreen buttons from continuously activating. I had entertainment for the last 45 minutes of a 5 hour 45 minute flight. Really unacceptable for first class. Flight attendent indicated your cleaning solution creates this problem. Seems as if this is widely known, you should be using a different product or cleaning better. Really really disappointing which simply added to the wi fi on your planes with reliably never ever works.

The baggage belt was not updated on the Delta App and was displayed on the wrong belt board. Was not expecting this to happen.

The plan was delayed and left DC 90 minutes late. However, it showed a 20 minute delay on the delta app, then a 12 min delay. It turned out to be an hour delay. I found out where the plane was with flightaware. Stop keeping customers in the dark about what is going on.

Everything went smoothly, although the usual gripes about airline travel were still present: the boarding process is inefficient, the snack selection is limited, and so on. Since there was extra space on the flight, the gate agent rearranged many people's seats to put people on the aisles and windows, leaving the middle seats empty, as much as possible, which was pretty great.

Landed without a gate ready. Plane is extremely old and dirty.

All the amenities was wonderful, if they could keep their prices that low. I'd fly with them all the time.

Very old plane with no inflight entertainment. I purchased the internet pass and it was nearly unusable.

My tray was broken so i had no place to work or eat except my lap. Flight attendant said I would get an email with some credit or miles, it was a complete waste of time as I could only function at about 20% of normal. I have not received anything yet.

Omg the disaster at the security was on another level! “Go to this end, sorry closed now, go to that end”. Ridiculous! This took over an hour! As far as the airline was concerned although I booked nearly a year ago I couldn’t get my bag tag - stand in another 15 minute line or my seat on Hawaiian Airlines- 5 more minutes! Then my TSA status was denied. Like what the heck! Makes a person not want to travel with this amount of incompetence

The Honolulu Hub needs 2 to 3 times the amount of things to do as well as shuttles that transport to/from gates and terminals. Arriving from OCONUS locations; transferring to CONUS locations its a miserable experience. Fetching and re-checking bags, then returning to a gate across the airport take longer than any other large airport. If youre confused by what I mean, the process goes like this: Disembark plane Walk a mile to the main terminal Walk half a mile to baggage claim Wait 40 minutes for baggage Walk a mile to re-check-in baggage Wait 20 minutes for checking in those bags Fo back through the wrong TSA line because the signage is poor Almost miss the connecting flight because your gate is across the airport.

The crew were exceptionally nice and accommodating. My wife was tired after the flight from Haneda, Tokyo. They let her sleep and served her dinner later after she woke up, before we landed in PDX.

Left 60 minutes late due to “cargo loading”. ????? Both Premier club personnel and flight crew seemed to hate their jobs. No food or drinks offered in the club except for coffee and tiny bags of pretzels. What a disgrace. Snarky attitudes towards customers and not a single smile. “Aloha Spirit” is dead and gone. “Extra comfort” seats are rock hard.

Horrible food and crew. Crew were laughing and talking loud while people were trying to sleep

I liked the Starlink WiFi but didn't like how they said they were the only airline to offer a free meal and it turns out to be just a standalone sandwich and then charge for snacks to go with it. Rather have the free snacks like Southwest, but have the option to purchase a decent meal for a 5+ hour flight.

Canceled my flight within 24 hours, causing me arriving home midnight. Will never book Hawaiian airlines anymore

I always love flying Hawaii and I have nothing to add

Flying with Hawaiian Airlines is a treat! They have the best crew, food and drinks! I’ve always enjoyed flying with Hawaiian Airlines and will continue to use them!

We decided to take our mom on vacation but we were worried how well she will do on the flight, she's a senior and required special accommodations such as transport chair since she can't stand for long periods. To our surprise my whole family was given priority boarding, my mom was given chair, we were not standing in line and were given seats in good area next to our mom. A+ experience!

The crew was great. Very friendly and responsive. The plane was old, small and tight. We ran out of overhead space and I had to check. Middle seat was particularly tight.

Flight itself excellent, but delayed so missed connection & got to destination 2 hrs later

The flight crew on this leg of my trip was very friendly and pleasant. Every one of them was humorous, as well as helpful and accommodating. This group was BY FAR the best crew I’ve flown with. They deserve kudos.

boarded early to only find out that flight would sit at gate for 45 min to an hour. Landed in chicago and sat on runway for over an hour before got to gate. Total delay was extensive for a 45 min flight door to door.

Packed in plane small uncomfortable seats elbow to elbow nobody wants to be in that situation for the money they paid

It's a long flight and I would have liked better snacks between lunch and the arrival meal. It's fine to have fruit and nuts but I really don't like ramen because it's salty junk soup. I'd suggest sandwiches. They're not expensive nor are they hard to store for a long flight. The FA's had a couple of big services and they were super busy preparing, executing and then cleaning up. Then they disappeared.

I had a good time. However, I paid for the wifi and it was in and out the whole flight.

The business class seat is exceptional. I wish the food is more palatable.

Overall, the flight was good. Lounge access should be with all business class tickets.

Horrible service no Wi-Fi connection on both leg of the flight and they are refusing to fix bad service
