American Airlines has horrible food. Also, since I booked a trip with JAL for all segments, I was surprised and disappointed I was on American Airlines from LAX to Haneda. I paid for JAL and received a much lower quality.

American Airlines has horrible food. Also, since I booked a trip with JAL for all segments, I was surprised and disappointed I was on American Airlines from LAX to Haneda. I paid for JAL and received a much lower quality.

American Airlines Business Class does not meet the standard it should when compared with Japan Airlines, Qatar Airways, or Air France. The flight attendants often appear disengaged and fatigued, with forced smiles, noticeable attitude, and occasional rudeness. Food options are subpar, the overall ambiance feels cheap and outdated, and the cabin design reflects a past era rather than current premium expectations. Lastly, the aircraft itself felt old and uncomfortable. Overall, the experience is not competitive with what peer airlines are offering today.

I really love their services! From checking-in to deplaning, superb! Highly recommended!

The flights were on time and the cabin crew were very nice. The only downside was that the food was not good

I like the intention and service of the flight crew. Japanese values were observed and appreciated as a customer.

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.

Excellent service, excellent food and beverage options, plenty of legroom

I fell asleep, and the crew kindly left some snacks for me

Underpricer is a terrible third party service that couldn’t change three letters on my boarding pass in time to make a flight. It cost me tons of money to have to buy a new ticket with JAL. I’m extremely let down with Kayak using such a sketchy company with horrific customer service.

Check in procedure is harder than with other airlines, infotainment system is outdated

Terrible experience! delay 2 time and say i dont have ticket

It was amazing. I had several upgraded seats on my flight out. Everything went smooth with no delays.

Flight delayed for more than 16 hrs and no effort was spent to provide an alternate

Flight attendants were friendly & good service, food sucks, seats uncomfortable, not many Asian movies or shows flying from Hong Kong

Flight attendants had a little attitude. Food tastes no good.

Overall we had a good experience during our flight from San Francisco to Houston.

it was a very short flight so my expectations were low.

Good flight. However, when booked flight with United, assumed the layover included by United in San Francisco of 1 hr and 40 minutes was sufficient . Not so and would recommend at least 2 hours or more. Needed to go through US immigration (very long lineups), then pick up bags, take all the way to another terminal, running because we did not have sufficient time. We made the flight because they held the door for us but luggage didn’t follow.

Very disappointing given gate agent behavior. Filed a formal complaint with United.

Flight delayed. WiFi connectivity very poor if not existant. Last minute arrival forced me to run to catch my connection.
