We left nearly 3 hours late...so that was not a good experience. We boarded and then ended up about 1 hour stuck at the gate. Not a good experience.
It is completely insane to me that first class does not include WiFi. Also does not include lounge access. Port for phone charging did not work. The crew was absolutely lovely, and the food was excellent.
I appreciate how quickly and kindly the people at the gate at DCA accommodated several of us who wanted to switch from the 6pm flight to the 5pm flight at the last minute. The flight crew was helpful to us too (dealing with luggage).
United didn’t even try to hold the flight for me. They knew I had a tight connection and when I arrived at the gate less than 10 mins after final boarding the flight had already gone. The gate agent wasn’t even notified that I was on my way. She was told I wasn’t at the airport
Everything went well except the turbulence what no one have a control of but pilot and crew handled very good!
I still prefer Delta, but Delta doesn’t fly to State College PA.
This flight was delayed multiple times and eventually canceled around 2-3ish. Original take off time was around 10:30am. By 3, there were no other options out of Houston, so stuck in Houston for from 3pm - 11am the next day.
Nothing bad to say about the actual crew or airline. It was nice to have a complimentary FULL can of soda, as well as a snack. Blankets and earbuds were also provided at no cost for this red eye flight. I especially appreciated the free WiFi and movie selection with the Bluetooth option. It helped the flight pass more quickly. No matter who you fly, boarding and disembarking are always SUCH a pain. As I mentioned, this is on the passengers and not the crew!!
Flight attendants rude and impolite… flight delayed by almost 5 hours.
Ok so apparently the new policy on United Airlines is that customers in the main cabin should NEVER be served more than once and besides picking up trash there should NEVER be another interaction with the customer for any reason.
New internet speed is awesome! Great flight and staff. Also most efficient and fast baggage handling ever in Philly!
We waitied for 2 hours for flights to take off. Make us to seat 2 hours in small space is not good.
Wheel Chair Access sucked. I had a guy from Bangaldesh drop me off without taking me to the gate
comfy and spacious seats for premium economy, nice flight attendants. only problem was the wifi did not work, and my entertainment screen was locked in Arabic language and all kids shows with no way of seemingly changing it. but the flight was fine and I arrived with no issues
It was hot. Need more A/C blowing with more pressure from the overhead vents.
Although it was a smaller plane, the flight was quick and uneventful.
We left nearly 40 minutes late, which is a long time when you're just seated and waiting. Otherwise, it went well.
No frills flight poor leg room and plane was 30 min late
The boarding process for my American Airlines flight from Copenhagen to Philadelphia was a bit tricky. We experienced a gate change that required a long walk to a new area of the airport. Additionally, boarding was not via a jet bridge; we had to take a shuttle bus to the plane and then carry our luggage up the stairs ourselves. Furthermore, the bag drop didn't open until about 12:20 PM, which was only three hours before our scheduled departure. This meant I couldn't drop my bag off early and had to wait outside of security in order to drop off my bag and use the kiosk. The bag drop self-service kiosks also didn't open until about 12:00 PM when an American Airlines employee unlocked them so that we could print out our boarding passes and bag tags, which further created a backlog. The flight was delayed by over an hour because we had to wait for one of the tires on the plane to be changed. On a positive note, the flight attendant was very professional when handling a passenger who was sitting in the wrong seat. Even though the passenger was persistent and reluctant to move, the flight attendant calmly ensured the assigned passenger could take their seat. Kudos to the flight attendant for keeping his calm and composure, not allowing the issue to escalate, and handling it well under pressure while a line of passengers waited in the aisle to board. The in-flight service was also fast, prompt, and efficient, although service had to be suspended for the last two hours of the flight due to weather and turbulence, which was outside of the crew's control. However, the in-flight entertainment screens and the overall interior of the plane were somewhat older. The system did not offer streaming to personal mobile devices, so we had to watch movies on the seatback screens.
Overall, my experience with American Airlines in this trip wasn’t great. Our baggage didn’t make it on the flight to Denmark, and the baggage service (3rd party) didn’t seem to be fully connected with the American Airlines system. We ended up having to go back to the airport the next day to get our luggage back. I’m sure it would have eventually been delivered to my hotel, but I wasn’t willing to keep waiting. My return flights were good until arriving in Philadelphia. It was a nightmare to have to go through TSA check again before going to our connection. That made everything even more stressful. We then had a tarmac delay of about 25 minutes. That delay put my next connection in jeopardy in Chicago, but we still would have had just enough time. However, we had to wait about 30 minutes on the tarmac in Chicago since a plane was at the gate we needed. Even though I ran to the next gate, we missed the last leg of our flight. It was going to be 2 days before we could get another flight, so we tried to rent a car, but there was none available. Our last choice was to take an Uber and fork over $400+ for a 3 1/2 hour trip. All of the extra stress was completely avoidable if AA had been able to follow through with their obligations.
Food was terrible. Going to Italy I gave benefit of the doubt however returning to the USA was no better. Rolls were frozen. Butter was frozen. Quality of entree poor
Cabin crew friendlier, they weren't weren't unfriendly, but simply professional and not more
The crew on AA international flights in my experience are generally lazy, rude, and inefficient. These guys did not disappoint.
The plane sat on the tarmac for 2 hours, it was terrible. No drink service during the flight. Terrible
Comfortable seat Attentive cabin crew Asian vegetarian meal very good Not enough drinks were offered during flight No ice cream Snack offered before landing not good very unpleasant taste no choices
This flight was rebooked from a missed connection 3 days before due to connecting flight cancelation. We had upgraded on our original flight but were assigned coach seats on this flight. BA could do nothing to upgrade us due to this flight being "overbooked" and "busy". We should have been rebooked in upgraded seats. Now we have to apply for a refund.
Plane arrived late to gate, staff at Philadelphia had no sense of urgency to get people on the plane. Boarding took 15 min longer than it should have because despite 4 staff working at the gate, only one was scanning tickets while the others sat talking to each other.
When I bought the ticket, right away I got a problem, I had to cancel. Unfortunately never ever I will use kayak or Iberia again. When trying to cancel kayak told me to talk directly with the airline, the airline talked to me through whatsap and told me to deal through kayak. Both of u never took responsibility in helping me out. You kayak did not want to deal with me. I called my credit card and now we r disputing the charge bc u have a pathetic customer service.
Ability to select seating would be nice. We were family of three and they had us seated back to back and one of us on the other side of the plane??? That is pretty goofy. Especially when tickets were placed two months in advance.
How to get an aisle seat without paying extra? The young lady next to me was assigned the seat.
Flight was delayed by 40min and when we eventually boarded, there was a mad scramble to save time. We were told no hand luggage would be accepted and it must be checked in. I was on a connect flight so wanted my hand luggage with me for the next flight. They were so rude at the gate and didn’t want to let me take my cabin-approved bag on board. I had to go buy a bag and transfer the essentials to take into the double connect flight. Once I was on board I saw there was ample space in overhead bins. I asked to go fetch my bag which was literally outside the aircraft in the walkway. That was not allowed. On board, Lufthansa is actually a low-cost airline for continental flights. Buy your own snacks. This surprised me because they are part of Star Alliance Airlines and on my domestic flight with SAA I received a drink and a snack box with sandwich and dried fruit on a 55min flight. The seat pitch on Lufthansa is also smaller than for the Middle Eastern and Asian airlines so comfort was not great for me who is 1,85cm tall. The third connection with SAA was a dream - friendly staff, quick and easy boarding and overall pleasant experience.
My girlfriend had a health emergency and couldn’t board the flight. I asked for a refund, but you only offered half of the purchase price as a refund. Very disappointing.
It was chaotic. It was overbooked so we didn't have seats until the end but they turned out to be good seats. The gate was at the end of the airport. We had to get busses to the tarmac and board. It just seemed chaotic. Flight was OK. Food was not so good. Lufthansa used to be such a great airline and now as it's with everything else: If you have money you get comforts but if you don't then you end up below deck with the rest of the cattle.
Disappointing. Too many let-downs, in delays and communication, by both Lufthansa and Discover to put in an email. I am resigned to the fact that this is what I should expect from all airlines. Unfortunately.
Not the best overall, had challenges during boarding due to the weight of my carry-on (over 8 kilos). Interesting enough they don't check all carry-on bags. It was very stressful as Discover worker kept insisting, I had to check my bag. I finally was able to get an exception to keep my carry-on, however, I felt racially discriminated and embarrassed by this. The flight did not have WIFI access and the timing to connect between flights is not enough. As the flight leaving Philadelphia to Frankfurt was delayed, I had about an hour to make my connection. I had to run and ask people to let me go first during immigration and security so I could then barely make it to my next flight, and it was the same process on the way back. It was a disappointed experience overall.
my flight was cancelled. next one scheduled 2 days later. no hotel provided. worst airline experience ever
While booking through Lufthansa, when flight is operated by other airlines, you don't necessarily get the quality of Lufthansa. That said, I was passed over on both meals served. While I had my eyes closed or asleep, no attempt was made to serve me or wake me for the service, which is something new. When I took it upon myself to get out of my seat, track down an attendant, and ask for a meal, the attendant would kindly serve me. Of more concern, however, is the lack of selection for the meal. Being diabetic and insulin dependent, I could not eat what was served. The first meal was pasta with a small slaw/salad and a bun. The second meal was a muffin and another pastry. In all, I could only eat the salad, which amounted to next to nothing. Fortunately (for Discover) I had brought food/snacks to carry me through the flight. Otherwise, I might have reached a low blood sugar. With diabetes becoming more prevalent, Discover may consider more eating options to accomodate all passengers.
Terrible. There was a rattling noise the whole flight. The internet didn't work after I paid. Boarding is very disorganized.
I got an email from Lufthansa saying that because the flight was full, I could check my cabin bag for free. When I tried to do that, I got charged $75 because it was 'overweight'. Other people who did not check their bags didn't get their bags (that were much larger than mine) weighed. Nor were they denied boarding. This is a scam, right? Expect to see this review EVERYWHERE!
All good. Boarding was on time and everything was well organized. The flight was on time so overall I had a good experience.
Everything was terrific. Kevin, and the whole crew, were exceptional. Five stars all around! Thanks so much.
Good. Staff was great. The Naples Airport was the worst part of the experience.
We had a fantastic crew, super friendly and very helpful but the actual boarding part of it was terrible. You actually felt like we were going to a Third World country to be honest all the way up to the airport and the way it was split up going in all different kinds of directions and no one knew what they were supposed to do was extremely stressful
OK. Needed more information on baggage details with different airlines and airport baggage pickup Also, it appeared they offered free WiFi on their info publications but none did.
Decent flight, helpful middle seat blocking in business. Boarding staff was polite and helpful. Unfortunately the airport directions to this gate were a mess and the check in staff did not alert us to the confusing signage or any proactive information about the lounge. On board the flight, food and drinks were decent but average. Comparatively, SASs new business catering on this route shines above both in quality and service
Not only were the aircrafts spacious, but the crew was friendly and efficient. I was so gracious for the included meals on the longer flight (8+ hours).
THE CONFIGURATION OF THE BUSINESS CLASS SITS ARE AWFUL!!! I WILL NEVER FLY BUSINESS CLASS ON BRITSH AIRWAYS AGAIN.
Honestly it was not great. I bought the plane tickets months prior to flying. The trip there was fine, though I found the mini beer offered on the flight a bit chintzy. The food was actually quite terrible both ways. I suppose that is somewhat to be expected. However, the return flight experience was awful. They did not have a seat assigned for me so I ended up "Flying Standby" on a flight I had purchased tickets for. This only complicated things when we arrived at Heathrow where I had to be assigned a seat on the next plane before getting through security. That added 15 minutes to the ordeal because there was no one to answer the phone for the security personnel. The security lines were backed up because people. It took another hour to get through and I almost missed my return flight due to them not having assigned me a seat number. Stupid.
Food not so good. Need more veggies and whole grain especially the late food. Couldn’t figure out how to use the entertainment system.
Boarding was organized and fast. Food was good and service was great. Tight seats and packed flight.
