Flight on time. Crew good. Seating Bad. Have to pay extra on a not cheap flight to avoid being next to toilet.
The stewards were too loud and chatty with each other
If the flight from Seattle to Eugene hadn’t been delayed for mechanical reasons we never would have made it. 45 minutes is not enough time to deplane and get clear across a big airport like SeaTac.
This was a smooth ride all the way with plenty of space in main cabin for my 6 foot frame over 5.5 hours. The stewards were pleasant and attentive. We bought the tapas box which proved to adequate for us on this flight. It was pretty hard to find restaurant food to go that is vegan for us in Kona Airport so buying this helped lots.
set room is an issue and I am not obese.
Look at my previous review I just wrote on this survey. It was awful!
My experience from Lihue Airport was the “Flight Experience from Hell!” First, I was pulled aside by the Lihue TSA and searched thoroughly! Not once, but twice I was molested by 5 different TSA agents using some sort of smear cloth testing to see if I had been exposed to something dangerous! I can’t tell you what because they never gave me an explanation by the end of a near delaying incident of boarding my plane. More importantly, I was generously provided an airport wheel chair and personal porter because of my health condition. TSA even took your wheelchair apart! What’s up with that? I’m near 75, caucasian, never been arrested for anything, don’t do drugs or alcohol, and patiently and politely abided to their instructions for a full damn 20 minutes! Awful and humiliating experience especially when two different agents literally groped my testicles and crack of my butt! Then they lost the cap to my inhaler. When I got to my destination, a whole bottle of prescribed pills were emptied because of them not tightening the cap back on! Total BS and unprofessional by the lot of them! The short flight to my connecting flight to the mainland on Maui fortunately was uneventful. However the Hawaiian aircraft to San Jose was one of the worst flights I’ve ever experienced without crashing. I believe it was a 330 Neo. May I ask, why did you put three more rows of seats in the damn plane since I last flew on a Hawaiian aircraft? I had absolutely NO legroom compared to the last time I flew with you. And I’ve done a few Hawaii/mainland trips, even a RT to New Zealand before. Then, the icing on the cake was a couple with a one year old baby that literally cried and screamed for all but 15 minutes of the 5 hour flight to San Jose! Further, I couldn’t move my seat back even a millimeter because a car seat was placed from their window seat to the back of my seat! My Hawaiian flight was a freaking nightmare and fortunately will be flying back to Lihue direct with Alaska!
I only give it a bad rating because I missed my flight
I had a horrible and traumatic bullying experience the last time I flew ( frontier). I was incredibly anxious about these flights. However, it was so relaxed, organized and the crew was efficient and polite. It was so refreshing and relaxing.
Terrible airport. It took over one hour to pass checkpoint and security gate. We stood under the sun in the long line
Sacrament staff are always polite and helpful. Airport is easy to maneuver and boarding is straightforward.
Great flight. Outstanding Service. Southwest was able to put us on a direct flight to Denver when the connection could have been affected by a later arrival to Baltimore. The direct flight was less expensive that the flight with the connection in Baltimore.
Delays delays delays. Late taking off, late landing, wait for a gate, etc.
Boarded on time but once we were ready for take off, the crew determined that, although every seat was taken, somehow someone was on the wrong flight. Delay, delay delay, announcements and ended up with one person checking EVERY ID against their passenger Manifest only to figure out it was a "clerical error." We departed 54 minutes late causing me to run in the St. Louis Airport to make my connection and lose the priority boarding spot I had paid for. Unnecessary delay.
I was re-booked onto another flight because my original flight was delayed and I would have missed my connector. I ended up in the “C” group after paying extra to be in the “A “ group on the original flight. At least if you’re going to re-book people, re-book them into the same group.
Flight was delayed due to plane not passing inspection And one of the crew had to time out and we had to wait for another one A 3 hour delay
mandatory demand customer to check their carry on because not enough people check bags.
Connecting flight is on time and boarding was a breeze!
Excellent. Would encourage Southwest to keep current boarding procedures with free style seating. Makes for a fantastic experience
As always, the entire Southwest experience was perfect. Purchasing the tickets on the Southwest web site was effortless, departure and arrival gates were spotless and comfortable, plane was clean and comfortable, crew was excellent and flight was on time. Wheelchair service in Las Vegas at departure was somewhat chaotic and disjointed, but I am not sure if that was Southwest problem, airport problem or combination.
The flight used a B767 with a very old interior from before 2014. The entertainment system did not work at all during the flight despite attempts to reset the system. It was like they flew this route just to be competitive.
They changed planes and the new plane couldn’t carry enough fuel to fly across the country so we had to stop in Kansas City to refuel. Flight was delayed .
Flight was too crowded and seats are too small, especially since passengrs are getting larger. Having a middle seat is ALWAYS tough! Woman on my left was large & kept creeping in to my space. Flight personnel were great! Have more savory rather than sweet snacks please.
Flight was crowded and the woman sitting on my left was large & kept crouching in to my space. You need bigger seats or smaller passengers to fit into the seats you DO have! Snack were OK. Would appreciate if airlines had more savory rather than sweet snacks, thank you!
Delayed flight (1hour) plus a long layover after an overnight flight with no backup plane available.
We were delayed, which I think had to do with air traffic control. Otherwise, everything was great.
The boarding process needs to be refined. Sometimes the gate crew calls out the zones and then flip to showing the.zones boarding on the gate monitor display. So, unless you are huddled around the gate lanes watching the monitor, you could miss your boarding zone. Suggest the zones be announced each time a new zone is allowed to board.
The boarding process needs to be refined. Sometimes the gate crew call out the boarding zone, and then flip to the monitor to show which zones are boarding. So unless everyone is gathered around to see the monitor there is usually confusion as wi which zones are boarding.
On time flight. Seat comfort could be better in the Comfort section.
My issue was with TSA agents for delta airlines. My luggage got flagged. The agent was going thru another persons first. He took 20 min to go thru hers. I asked them to bring mine closer so I could sit down . They said you can go sit it will be fine. I said I am supposed to keep my eyes on my bags at all times. The agent was meticulously unwrapping 2 gifts that the lady had and then tried to re warp it. He was trying to be kind i get it but 20 min for me to stand watching him do that was ridiculous. It was 6 am and there were a ton of travelers. Mine was flagged for some air packed tea that I bought in Turkey. My previous delta flight and 2 others before didn’t flag it. Consistency would be nice. Also on the flight the window shades were down for take off and landing - I thought that was very odd I thought they had to remain open for take off and landing.
Previously flown Hawaiian Airlines on similar routes, I found Alaska Airlines to be noticeably more comfortable. The seats on Alaska Airlines provided better support and cushioning, which made a significant difference on the long flight to the islands. When you’re spending 5-6 hours in the air, seat comfort really matters, and Alaska Airlines delivered where it counts. After comparing both carriers, I’ve decided to book with Alaska Airlines for all my future Hawaii trips. The superior seat comfort alone makes it worth choosing Alaska over Hawaiian Airlines. If you’re planning a trip to Hawaii and prioritizing comfort, I’d recommend giving Alaska Airlines a try. You won’t be disappointed. Highly recommended for Hawaii travel!
Amazing all female crew, including the pilot. Great flight attendants and smooth trip. Food was good. Boarding the plane from back to front would have made things significantly smoother. Took forever to wait for people to clear the alley. A little extra leg room would be nice also. Please thank your flight crew!
Would have been better if the flight went out as scheduled and we’d have been kept informed. Rescheduling the connecting flight out of Portland was especially difficult.
Boarding was confusing. Why are families so special that they get to board first? They and their stupid kids take up all the space in the overhead compartments. Then I get stuck having to gate check a bag when I've gone to a lot of trouble to pack efficiently to AVOID checking luggage.
A second drink service on a 6 hour flight would have been helpful.
Plenty of overhead compartment room. The seat choice option is horrendous as best.
I was put in a middle seat with the people on either side of me kept passing their grandchild over me and talking back and forth while I was trying to rest or watch a movie. So inconsiderate and totally disturbing. I asked if they would sit next to each other to alleviate the constant impeding my comfort but they refused.
Pre-Flight check-in Staff did a terrific job correcting a seat mis-assignment problem after I checked in the night before my flight. They really stepped up to make my flight home a joy. It was also my birthday, so the flight crew made me feel special a little treat.
Very nice experience. The boarding however seemed somewhat mixed up, and we were delayed taking off.
Cheap food no options for vegans, no entertainment, no snacks. Too much advertisement about their credit card. Next flight will be Delta Airlines.
As smooth as you can expect. Some issues with boarding because the previous plane took forever to deplane but overall, a good experience.
After a two hour delay, my flight was CANCELLED! No pilot available. Such BS.
I miss the screens they used to have for the long flights. I use a Kendal and it doesn’t work well with there WiFi. I tried my cell and the wifi was not good for it either this is the free wifi.
Update departure times in a more timely manner. We are not boarding on time if the plane isn’t arriving until after our scheduled departure time.
Took off on time and successfully avoided weather that looked to be a problem along the way
Very friendly and efficient and smooth boarding. We were even way early arriving at my destination. Thank you.
The trip was very smooth and they provided great customer service
We kept being told that the flight was full and that all overhead compartments were full and therefore had to check in our hand luggage. We were some of the last people to board and noticed that there was still sufficient space in the overhead compartments. We were obliged to check in hand luggage when there was space and so had to wait at luggage retrieval which took a while to then noticed damage to our luggage - not a great experience!
Flight boarded from Gate 39 at OGG, the farthest gate in the terminal. There were no Hawaiian themed amenities for the flight. The first class service was mediocre at best; I received not special welcome or recognition as an executive platinum member of American Advantage program. The flight attendants were more concerned with their cell phones than saying "thank you" to the passengers as we disembarked. Fortunately, the flight arrived at LAX a few minutes early.
The flight was quick and to the point. The crew just did their job w/o excessive talking and everything was just perfect.
