Terrible experience. Staff would not even refill my tea once. While they refilled a fellow Japanese persons wine 7 times. They also lost my luggage. Horrible. Go elsewhere
main courses of the primary meal were not good- the beef dish was really not good-
Service and the plane itself were terrific, but the extensive delays both before we left and after were a real pain.
I have been flying with JAL a few times, crews service, food, overall comfort even with economy, I would rate it the top three airlines. None of any American carriers can provide such excellent service.
First time flying. Very comfortable, plenty of leg room in economy. The food was good, as well as the snacks. Quick flight back from Kansai to HNL.
I thought this was a JAL flight but landed up being a code sharing one with Hawaiian Air. Got upgraded by check in staff and they confirmed my bag coming from Bangkok which was great. Cabin crew was solid, not especially friendly, just super efficient and wanting to get the job done which they did. Very fast and agenda oriented. Worst part is my economy plus seat was no better than my economy seat on JAL. Plus JAL has way better food, cleaner plane, and better crew. Worst part is when I landed, was never told where to grab bags. I had correct flight name and number for JAL but there was a Hawaiian flight number in another baggage terminal. I wasted over an hour with no help from ground staff for my bag. Hawaiian and Alaska airlines merger can’t happen fast enough as Hawaiian airlines is a dinosaur. Bad experience again and I’m not surprised. JAL rocks!
The entree wasn’t very good. The rice was soggy. The side dishes were all good though. The breakfast was also good. The crew were excellent, as usual.
The flight attendants were excellent as usual however the meal wasn’t the usual good quality. There is cooked rice was mushy.
The seats are significantly more comfortable than US airlines and the staff are much friendlier. The food is also much better, as they are particularly accommodating to any dietary restrictions.
Service is excellent - crew all so respectful and friendly. Airline comfortable - lots of legroom even in economy. Food was great even came with ice cream!
I enjoyed the flight, but a little too much turbulence on the flight. Thank you for the meal and entertainment. This kept my kids entertain during the flight. I have to admit comparing the crew from ANA vs United, there was a sense of more accomodation, friendliness and service compared to United crew. I felt for the United crew, it was just a job and it can be seen in there demeanor and delivery.
Attendants were very kind and frequently offered water and snacks. Food was excellent. For some reason, my IFE system would not play dialogue for any media despite my efforts to change to different language voiceovers, restart the system, etc. so I could not watch any videos.
Choice of movies dated as with the screens. Major room for improvement on the software to sort and select choices.
Although the crew was eventually very good, they complained loudly about EVERYTHING before the takeoff. Did not set the stage for a good trip in business class. The western meal choices were pretty mediocre as were the wine choices. We took an ANA flight to Tokyo and they were outstanding!
I liked the flight over all. Towards the middle of the flight. There was a flight attendant who felt like they were rushing to had out vegetarian wraps and said they were “sandwiches”. She also handed out hand we wanted the water but she was walked so fast we didn’t get any. We sat in the seat 45 E & D. And towards the last 30 minutes of the flight there was an announcement saying the crew would collect trash. No one ever came around. So held on to the trash until we landed and left in the seats.!
They did not get back tickets in time about flight varification so i had to purchase another one way ticket to get home soxas rocnot Risk being unable to return home.
Customer service was very good. Food was delicious. Wish the flight was longer.
Wonderful I would recommend it to fly & ride with ANA.
ANA’s service was great, and the flight was nice and smooth . They gave us updates and checking in and boarding was smooth and easy .
Staff and crew are wonderful, professional and courteous. Meal is delicious and snacks can be improved. Entertainment needs improvement, pls update selections of movies. I appreciate that our flight was on time
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.
Long flight but comfortable and not freezing as I have experienced on Hawaiian flights to the islands. They gave us blankets just in case. Nice touch.
NEVER MADE THE FLIGHT BECAUSE DELTA SAID THEY CAN NOT
Everything I mentioned earlier - the airbus was more comfortable indeed and the experience was further enhanced.
First class and monitors weren’t working for mine & my husbands. Eventually fixed, but quite annoyed as we bought first class. Also, No foot rests.
It would be nice if was given wires ear buds. Overall was a good experience was able to sleep on the plane
Delta seems to be improving in many areas, except they are super bad with the food available. Bring back normal food service on long flights.
Paid premium for Delta only to be on safe but tired old 767 with ancient cabin in mediocre condition. Poor wifi and horrible inflight entertainment. Hardly a premium experience. Should have flown SW and had fun flight crew and no pretense
The plane from SNA wouldn’t start after 5 tries. The team gave me an option of flying direct from LAX and giving me a Lyft ride there! Perfect!
I didn’t not like that I could not select my seat and ended up with the worse seat.
Hawaiian treats you right. They give you a little comfort pack. To watch movies or sleep. Earplugs and eye shields. I will definitely recommend and also fly with them again.
Service, cleanliness, comfort, and food were all wonderful. Hands down to JAL.
The check in at Kansai Airport was horrible. Check in didn’t begin until 1745 at which time the line was already at least an hour long. Given the time of year more consideration should’ve been given to the larger volume of travelers. Also there was an unnecessary sheet of paper that we needed to fill out when there’s kiosk machines available. As if that wasn’t enough, I was seated next to a teenager that seemed to have a panic attack or nightmare and was awakened when he began tapping my shoulder, then hugged his mother who was seated two seats away. I couldn’t sleep for the remainder of the flight after that.
We were first at the airport 4 hours before checking in but had no idea where was the start of the line and by the time ground crew lined up all the poles I found out I was standing at the premier club area and when I moved to the correct line I was all the way at the end of the line….also all the passengers who came after us were processed while our line didn’t move at all, and I found out those passengers were web checked in passengers and all web checked in passengers with or without luggage were taken care of before our lines were allowed to check in…This was our first time flying with Hawaiian and this was a new learning experience which we had never encountered before….Web checking in is a MUST if we choose to fly Hawaiian again
Cabin temp was too cold, and lighting too bright for an overnight flight.
Hawaiian Airlines the Lounge was too crowded, and there was a long line. In the end, there was no time left, and i had to board the plane.
Got there four hours before flight; check-in not open, not even set up, no time for when it would open. Went to have lunch/dinner above, came back three hours before flight and line was long; took another hour to get to check-in. When I checked in, she told me my seats as I had booked them, and I mentioned 'window' forgetting there had been no good window seats on the Honolulu leg; she immediately rebooked me to the window of the very last most cramped row beside the lavatories, where (not her fault) I was seated next to a Hawaiian (?) with huge shoulders that took several inches of my seat (beyond the armrest). Exceedingly uncomfortable flight, even ignoring his snoring. I'm convinced the seats on the 321neo out of Honolulu were wider, more comfortable than the 330 into Honolulu.
Kayak did not process the seat purchase assignment correctly (appeared on Kayak site, but Hawaian did not receive the order/payment for this), leading to having to purchase seats again at the airport, without the ones we had originally selected being available anymore. This was a crucial aspect of the flight, and made everything a lot more stressful. Staff was extremely nice and helpful though.
When I booked via Kayak back in March 12, 2024, I specified round trip seating assignment for Hawaiian airline so 3 of us can sit together. However when I checked in Hawaiian airline the day of departure in Narita airport, 3 of us (myself and 2kids traveling together) seating assign separately. Hawaiian airline said there was no seating request even though I have evident to specified seating together. We couldn’t seat together. I believe Kayak has system error for seating assignment. Please solve the issue immediately.
Flight was comfortable. The attendants did a great job. I’ve flown on several flights with Hawaiian. No complaints. Suggestion: The egg salad sandwiches seem to be a standard on most flights. I see a lot of them being returned or refused. Seems like a waste. I think Ham & Cheese would be more acceptable.
Wifi never really worked. Flight attendants were generally fine except when they were not very helpful when my wife accidentally spilled a soda (they chastised her to apologize to the people sitting behind when it was dark and we couldn't see anything and they brought one tiny napkin to help clean it up). Seats were uncomfortable for all four of us. Otherwise a typical flight.
Easy to board and fly, no frills. Yummy ramen on board.
Couple of the crew members were really nice and the rest are really rude and didn't help when we needed help, food was not worth it at all and most importantly there's no even entertainment system other than a very interruptive and slow internet and some movies.
internet didn't work. No offer of drinks or snacks.
Internet connection very poor, means you can not even order items through their own shop.
Een prijsvechter, dus dat moet je ook verwachten. Voor alles moet je betalen. We hebben vooraf een maaltijd en een amenitiesset besteld. Die kregen we netjes uitgereikt aan boord. Het is BYOD voor het amusement tijdens de vlucht en dit werkte uitstekend. Geen trage wifi, helemaal niet. Alles kost geld, zelfs een flesje water. Misschien op langere vluchten wel gratis water, thee, koffie. Maar daarentegen mag je na de security je lege drinkflessen gewoon vullen en mee aan boord nemen
Clean and comfortable cabin. Friendly on board service. No vegetarian food options and movie options were very limited. Internet was very slow
I didn’t eat the food but there wasn’t an option. Seat was a little too small for me but everything else was great
Never again on Zipair. People please spend a little extra to fly on better airlines. After all, it’s your vacation! No screen TV, internet sucks. You can’t change or modify anything after purchasing your tickets, Our friends tried to change from paying for carryon to checking in bags. No no no, you’d have to pay for whatever the check in bags cost. Myself, change my mind and continue to travel to other destinations after Japan. The only refund they were going to paying me back was $67.00 tax? So I’ve decided to just let my family use the extra seats and take my carry on back with them. At Narita airport, they’re not allowed my husband to my carry on back with them although I’ve already paid for. He end up have to paid $50.00 to check in that bag? You tell me, do you want to travel with Zipair? Hell no!
English on the website detailing items allowed in checked bag or carry-on could have been more clear. In flight WiFi had errors, cut out, and needed to constantly reconnect.
