Flight attends spent all his time playing on his phone, I expect more for first Class 😡
Delayed on both flights.
Connecting flights with first class seats is not as enjoyable since the flight was short. Will look to take more straight flights so i can enjoy first class more!

Pros: "Very helpful and professional crew, despite some pretty snarky passengers. Seemed to go out of their way to accommodate everyone."
Cons: "Bigger seats would have been nice, but these were okay. Changing planes at JFK was tight due to late departure from Atlanta, but it worked out. Overall, no complaints and I would fly Delta again given the opportunity and choice. Thanks!"
Cons: "Seat was old and killed my back. Paid for a comfort plus seat, but from what I could tell it was no different that economy. Still had to gate check my single carry on, no entertainment system, no in flight texting. I felt ripped off"
Cons: "It was ridiculously cold for 2 1/2 hours. When my seat mate asked for a blanket, the stewardess said she only had one more - then walked off. For drinks, they skipped several people. I had to catch her eye to ask for one and then ask her to get my kids a drink in front of me."
Pros: "All the attention bestowed upon me"
Cons: "Couldn't have been better"
Pros: "Lots of leg room, smooth flights and plenty of notification of any upcoming turbulence. Delta did fantastic with keeping everything from check-in to landing friendly and professional. Will definitely fly again"

Cons: "Delays out of MCI and late arrival, no hope for a decent seat on HNL leg, couldn't sit with husband, huge smelly seat mate, used up 10,000 miles on my account and paid higher price than current ticket price, middle seats, not happy"
Pros: "I am usually happy with Delta."
Cons: "Huge smelly person invading my space. Disgusted by his hot sweat on my leg. Used up 10,000 miles and paid too much (watched the fare go down several hundred dollars) and ended up with a middle seat. Not happy."
Cons: "If there could have been some sort of service at DTW to take customers to the gate of their connecting flight, for cases of really short time window of course, it’d be extremely helpful."
Pros: "Crew were ok. Not that comfortable."
Cons: "seat need to be more comfortable"
Cons: "Changed Gates and airplanes after about a 4-hour delay Toward end of flight, the main cabin FA announced she wouldn’t be accepting half-empty water bottles as trash because Flint MI doesn’t have clean water. After an inconvenience-filled day, I thought this was pretty poor service and out of line"
Pros: "Crew gave specific instructions on boarding as to wear to place bags (overhead vs under seat) so even though we boarded toward the end, there was still a place for my bag. I enjoyed the choice of snacks."

Pros: "Friendly staff and onetime aircraft"
Cons: "Nothing in perticular"
Pros: "Not the wor st comfort,"
Cons: "Cannot even request seats before booarding, as they try to get us to pay more. The anxiety over separate seating for couples is not worth it."
Pros: "Boarding was easy. Wifi was available and we got some snacks. Paid extra to sit in roomier coach, was worth it."
Cons: "Still pretty cramped, not the crews fault. Would've been better with the seat back screens"
Pros: "Flight and service were fine. Because there was a long delay, the ticket agents supplied free sandwiches, drinks, salads, and coloring books and tried to engage the waiting passengers with games.

Cons: "Poor communication about delays, delayed for over an hour with no where to find once on the plane, nobody offered any of the passengers anything to drink. Overall my worst flying experience with United ever."
Pros: "My bag actually made it to my destination before I did. I also managed to modify my flight on the United app to a better one than the customer service provided."

Pros: "Boarded on time"
Cons: "Sat on tarmac in United plane at destination (Denver) from 2:40 pm to 3:35 pm. Waiting on a gate to unload...just long enough to miss my 3:30 pm United connecting flight. Why couldn’t United have delayed the connecting flight a few minutes knowing we were sitting in another of their planes just a few feet away?"
Pros: "Nothing"
Cons: "They delayed so long that I had to reschedule for another day. This is after watching planes to other possible locations take off before United would switch peoples tickets. This was after a 4 hour layover completely disappeared. They should have been able to reroute planes or something after the first 2 hours of delays since it was for a weather phenomena that gives tons of warning (at least 24 hours)."

Pros: "Quick"
Pros: "Nice flight attendant"
Cons: "Seat hurt after around three hours"

By the time the flight was allowed to take off, the dinner onb the flight had sat too long and they were not allowed to serve it. They gave us a coupon for $20 buck to eat dinner at San Francisco airport upon arrival but of course no restaurant is open at 2:00 am."

Pros: "Everything was good!"

Cons: "My luggage was lost"

Cons: "A little tight"
Pros: "The kindness of the staff."
Cons: "Having to go back to Denver because of a storm-in Omaha."
Pros: "Mostly nothing"
Cons: "The flight was delayed, not a lot of information conveyed to passengers. The aircraft landed more than 4 hours late, could've gone to Kansas City and come back twice in the same amount of time. No apology by the crew for the delay"
Pros: "Seats were spacious, we were on time."

Pros: "Crew was nice but seemed tired or flustered. I could stow my backpack in overhead because it was a backpack, a true carry-on piece. Flight was short."
Cons: "Flight was delayed. Boarding is always a pain. Airline calls boarding, everyone queues up and then it takes forever. Also they take to long boarding business class etc then many times they call a group # but allow passengers from other groups to board, not including people with disabilities, older passengers who need assistance."
Pros: "Excellent service and friendly staff"
Cons: "Absolutely not enough room to stretch your legs"
Pros: "Nice flight and on time."
Cons: "Both flights round trip were delayed. The first flight was delayed 2 hours and the second flight was delayed 4 hours for maintenance issues."
Pros: "The flight was short"
Cons: "I absolutely HATE aisle seats. The crew brush pass you putting all of there private body parts on you and they will absolutely run over you with that metal cart. It’s so unprofessional. They brush pass you with their butts, crouch area, and hands all over you. Awful experience"
Pros: "The flight crew were Amazing on both flights. Seating was good on the 1St flight, I got the aisle seat, 2nd flight was little cramped “middle seat” I’m 6’3”. The flight was only and hour so not bad. Overall it was good."
Cons: "About 2more inches in the seating for long legged people taller than 5’8”. I’m 6’3”. So pretty cramped if not in an aisle seat."
Pros: "The flight out of MCI was delayed... no employee appeared before the actual loading time..so no one knew what was happening until it was time to Board. When the agents finally arrived they seemed very “disorganized” and confused and did a poor job explaining the delay... and once the gate change was"
Cons: "Continuing... was announced they were rude about explaining the gate change, then no one was at the new gate, was a chaotic mess off people all crowding trying to board, the agent yelled “GET IN ONE LINE!” as if we were all idiots... plane was uncomfortable... I stood up to use the restroom, and a"
Cons: "No cost for carry on bag"
Pros: "The first 3 rows recline so if you get one of those it’s okay"
Cons: "They don’t even offer water. The check-in system sucks. The kiosks don’t work and the staff shows up late, even though they have posted signs that say it opens 2 hours before boarding."
Cons: "Delayed with no reason which costed me more money as I didn’t get home until 3am"
Pros: "My flight was cancelled so I didn’t get to travel out of Omaha let alone back to Omaha"
Cons: "Flight cancelled outside of Omaha"
Pros: "The price."
Cons: "Uncomfortable non-reclining seats, inconsistent delay notifications, no audio or visual options on flight."
Pros: "Where is the soul???"
Pros: "* Comfortable seats and friendly crew. * Fast flight once we got on the air."
Cons: "* Plane was delayed leaving. * LENGTHY sales pitch for the Frontier credit card during the flight. * Weird guy next to us played and sang along to country/western music the whole flight ... with NO earbuds. * Weird guy next to us announced the Nebraska towns he recognized from the window."
Pros: "We had a great flight. Very full but ended up with an empty seat in our row, which was nice. The price was very cheap and we had no bags to check so worked out extremely well. The crew was very friendly and helpful. Thanks for making a trip home very memorable."
Pros: "Flight was on time, great price, seats seems sized the same as other airlines recently used (American and United) but less padding/firmer."
Pros: "Nothing."
Cons: "I was unable to board my flight because the individual attending the desk for check-in left more than 45 minutes before the flight. I was unable to get my boarding pass and in addition, could not check in my bag as I paid for it. I was forced to purchase a flight double the price on a different airline in order to make it back to NYC in time for my interview the next morning. I am absolutely horrified at my experience -- I am a recent graduate in the process of looking for a job and should not have had such a horrible flying experience. I would like a refund."
Cons: "The check-in process didn't work and was confusing. Every time I tried to check a bag and pay the reduced fee, the website returned me to the window asking for username and password again. I could not check-in on line and had to pay full fee for checking my bag. I was frustrated and at the airport there was no consideration for giving me the reduced fee in light of the website malfunctions by the agent checking me in. Also, the steps during the check-in was confusing - trying to sell upgrades etc, instead of just taking you thru the check-in steps."
Pros: "The pilot got me safely to Atlanta"
Cons: "The airplane was very filthy The seat in front of me was very dirty I asked the pilot for a sanitizer napkin he said that they didnt have anything. I asked for a paper towel so I could clean the seat and it took him 25 minutes to bring it. It just seem like the plane was really nasty Th 2 guys in my row saw the same thing"
Pros: "No snacks, no movies,...great fare! Flights on time!!"
Cons: "Pay for all snacks. Cup of water free"
Cons: "Seats were about 1.5" thick plastic, rigid, with no padding. Felt like a military transport. Advertised as the cheapest fare, but with the luggage addon for carryon and checked - was not the cheapest"
Cons: "The only bright spot was your great crew. First, Frontier doesn't even staff its ticket counter at MCI, so, heaven forbid there's an accident on the highway and we're a couple of minutes late, we can't even get through security. That's beyond annoying. Frontier charges for everything. For seats. For bags. For drinks. For food. So, after a haphazard boarding process and ending up in a middle seat, I flew on a lawn chair. Thankfully, it was a short flight. I enjoyed a tiny cup of water and opted not to spend $2.99 on another beverage. All of that, I knew about in advance and expected. I was thinking "at least my flight was cheap..." At the end, Southwest would have even been cheaper. I also didn't realize Frontier couldn't even be bothered by the basics. For example, opening the door when we arrived in Denver. We were on time. We waited on a gate, which is annoying, but not unusual, but then, after we pulled up to the gate, we waited ANOTHER 15-20 minutes in a roasting hot plane. JUST for someone to open the door to permit us to deplane. One of my fellow passengers quipped: "Are they going to make us pay to get off the plane?" Funny, sarcastic, but a sentiment many of your passengers shared. We finally exited the plane, and I waited on my bags--the ones I'd spent $75 to check. There was no information. No announcement. No update. The supervisor truly didn't even know what was going on. An HOUR AND A HALF later, the supervisor said, "I think your bags are still on the plane. We're short staffed, so another supervisor and I will go help unload them" Seriously? At what point did unloading bags become optional? We finally got our bags, and I'm the one who finally told the supervisor that bags from Kansas City were beginning to arrive. She announced it to the rest of the grumpy crowd. It was much worse with the cranky kids waiting on their strollers and carseats. I fly this route often. I arrived home AFTER I usually do on the much later Southwest and United flights. My fiance and I are traveling back and forth DEN-MCI/MCI-Denver often. We no longer even look at Frontier as an option when booking our tickets"
Cons: "They cancelled the flight. Then an hour or so after the intended departure time they informed everyone of the cancellation. Which made it more difficult to get alternative flights."
Pros: "Easy, Cheap, Clean, Basic."
Cons: "There wasn't anything to complain about. I didnt' like the fact that you have to pay for a carry-on, but then again, the flight was hundreds cheaper so in the long run, all good."
Pros: "Frontier is best kept secret ever. I plan to fly with you a lot in the future if the deals continue to be as good as it was for this flight. No hassle checked and carry on baggage fee was really great. I also must boast that the seat selections for me and my wife were outstanding!!"
Cons: "That I had not been hearing much about Frontier for the past several years."
Pros: "Flight was on time, crew was friendly. Had to buy drinks and snacks"
Cons: "You have to pay for carry-on luggage"
Pros: "It was quick"
Cons: "The charge for carry on"
Pros: "The airline crew did a good job."
Cons: "First unexpected costs were not revealed at booking, price for the trip does not include your Carry-on bag. If you want to check in early there is a per seat charge otherwise it's assigned seating by them. We stood in line @ the Frontier counter to check baggage for 1 hour!!! It was understaffed and poorly organized. Then it took another half hour to get through TSA; not Frontiers fault. By the time we got to our gate we were already impatient to get it over with. Boarding was slow as many passengers with window seats came on last forcing a constant reshuffling of passengers. While the crew was competent, all the other problems made the flight very mediocre."
Pros: "MCI departure efficient"
Cons: "DIA tarmac delay, unable to get to gate"
Pros: "The price until I had to pay for a carry-on bag"
Cons: "Very few things are appealing about this airline."
Cons: "They changed their seats, less room, less comfortable, tray tables are tiny, they nit pick and charge for EVERYTHING. They purport to be a discount airline, but in reality they're just a money-grubbing company who nickels and dimes their customers while providing a much worse product than they did before. I will not be flying Frontier ever again."
Cons: "Couldn't move the seat back at all. Couldn't sleep."
Pros: "I paid for a better seat in the stretch seating and it was very comfortable with a lot more leg room."
Cons: "My flight to Kansas City was one hour late in leaving. No information was given to us about updates or why? My return to Denver was over 2 hours late. Once again, no updates or why? Southwest gives you peanuts, crackers and a free soft drink. You have to pay for everything on Frontier At the baggage claim we waited a long time. The information board showed our flight at #3. After a long time a passenger yelled to all of us, "hey, it is down here at a difference place.""
Pros: "I like the convince of the flight."
Cons: "I don't like the fact that we started charging 30 for a carry on. I get it. You get the ticket for cheap and upcharge but charging for the carry on is a way to lose business. I might as well fly spirt at least I know up front that I have to pay for something that's already with me. Very frustrating on a return flight."
Pros: "Nothing"
Cons: "Everything. Very long flight delays, bad customer service, aggressive attitude of flight attendants, uncomfortable seats in the planes and hidden costs every step of the way."
Pros: "The chairs in the plane"
Cons: "The fact that they rescheduled a flight but then weren't ready when they said, I understand delays but professionalism is key when not communicating to clients. The fact that they said they'd give a voucher for next flight, yet I'm still waiting on it to get emailed to me, it's been past 48 hours"
Pros: "Friendly and couteous"
Cons: "How the seat selection goes, having to pay more to have a different selection"
Pros: "Nothing"
Cons: "Everything"
Pros: "Nothing"
Cons: "Frontier airlines has left an unforgettable experience to cherish in the years to come. I can say it was undoubtedly one of the impeccably worst airlines to travel ever. My flight was scheduled to travel from Kansas City to Chicago at 7:23 pm on Thursday. Initially I got an email from them saying the flight has been delayed and the new departure time is 9:45 PM. When I searched about it in GOOGLE it showed me that the flight has been cancelled, Furiously I called the customer service and they weren't even having an idea about the flight getting delayed in the first place. I had to travel to airport which is 50 miles from my place just to know that the flight got cancelled and the next flight is on Sunday. Due to their technical failure, I had to wait till Sunday to board a flight to Chicago(They gotta be kidding, wait 3 days to board next flight). I had to cancel few other flights, meetings and hotels as I am not able to board this obnoxious flight. Overall, The customer service is lackluster . Their website is very slow and has false information. The refund process is bad. They dont even intimate you through email if the flight is cancelled I am referring this airline to all my colleagues and friends. If you have a lot of money for procrastination, you are welcome to travel with this airline."
Pros: "Staff are friendly"
Cons: "Seats are not comfortable - no padding. Leg space is non-existant. Tray table is about the size of a postcard. Thank goodness the flight was less than 2 hours"
Cons: "Seats. Fees associate with bags. Customer service"
Cons: "We sat on the plane for almost 2 hours once we arrived to Omaha. I had tickets to see Olympic Trials Swimming Finals and missed over half of it."
Pros: "See above"
Pros: "The low price of the fare"
Cons: "1. All the added charges even for a refreshment 2. The obnoxiously loud noises coming from the plane mechanics 3. A group of 5 that were drunk, belligerent, loud, and inappropriate 4. Lack of cleanliness (old tissues & trash stuffed in the seat pocket, trash on the floor, looked like throw up in our aisle-our entire aisle asked to move seats) 5. Stewardess speakerphone so loud It was painful"
Pros: "The bathrooms were clean, otherwise there isn't much to write about..."
Cons: "The flight was delayed because an engine malfunction; which discovered right before take off, luckily they caught it. We waited about an hour and the "new" seats are ridiculously uncomfortable and I'm pretty sure they don't recline. Overall would not fly with them again unless the price is right."
Cons: "I wish that the crew had said something about the turbulence, like "oh this is completely normal" or "we're hitting some turbulence""
Cons: "I didn't like the terrible turbulence which we had on May26th. I know that was not the airlines fault, but it seemed excessive to be on the tarmac for over 2 hours and being over three hours late in getting to the gate. It was the airlines fault that I had to pay $40.00 to check a small bag and that we only got a half cup of water after the long delay."
Pros: "I loved the flight attendants. They were very warm and kind. They made what turned out to be a very bumpy ride more comfortable for the passengers because they were more expressive about the turbulence than the pilots."
Cons: "The take off was a ride before we even got off the ground. I don't know if it was due to wind or what. The plane was swaying from side to side before the wheels were up...and there was no explanation from the pilots. What I would like to express the most about this particular flight was that I felt the pilots were not very conciencious about expressing concern for how the passengers were doing during what was a pretty bumpy ride from start to finish."
Cons: "I did not appreciate being asked if I would like to pay extra for a seat. It was misleading and several prompts kept it in front of me. Another way to get money from customers AFTER the ticket purchase. The seat area is very cramped as well and if you want more room, you have to pay for it. Paying for a bag whether carry on or checked? Frontier is a scam."
Pros: "Not driving 8 hours"
Cons: "Having to fly to Nebraska lol"
Cons: "Sitting in the plane and flight was canceled, next available flight is 3 days later which filled up and then raised to over $800 . End up booking with Delta for additional $650 to get home for Easter."
Cons: "I was cancelled due to weather and they could not get me another flight for 3 days later"
Pros: "On time"
Cons: "Televisions did not work, no WiFi, paid $30 for luggage, frontier sent my bag to Cancun Mexico instead on Omaha on a direct flight, took 7 days to get my suit case!!! Hoping for a full reimbursement of items purchased in a timely manner. I do not want to fly frontier again but unfortunately I have a family vacation booked in July by frontier and am not looking forward to flying with them again. Customer service was okay, lack of communication was evident, could not even locate my suitcase for 2 days and was told different info by different people and was given wrong numbers to call, I would not recommend frontier"
