Because of the long lay over hour, Rwand Air offered a free hotel accomodation and transport. This was highly appreciate d

Pleasant, relaxed flight. I had 2 seats to myself, which was a bonus. I couldn't find a flight tracker ap so I could know where we were but that's a minor complaint. On the plus side, the passenger announcements did not come through my earphones but were on main speakers only. That was a nice touch.

Flight delayed by 3 hours 45 mins and no explanation given or apology. Rebooked on a flight departing to final destination 48 hrs later and baggage not delivered.

My outbound flight was grounded in Lusaka so we never made it to Paris. DO NOT fly this airline you will be stranded and your plans will be completely disrupted

Inflight entertainment with electronic charging stations can help during a long flight.

The flight was delayed with no notice. No inflight entertainment. Communication is vital in any business.

Poor communication: Flight come directly to kigali , didn’t come via mumbasa. Favouring to Rwandan passenger to move from economic to bussiness class after flight depart. Where they don’t asked other older passenger who need more comfort. Rude staff : chekin airport at Mumbai. Talking in local language (marathi) while serving and no sorry no thank you attitude.

I liked everything about the flight. The only thing I would suggest improving is the cleanliness of the plane. With better cleaning, the overall experience would be much better.

They only gave us 30 minutes to make an international connecting flight. We didn’t make the connection but they did do a good job rebooking us despite the chaos. Our bags didn’t make it back and their process for customer support is pretty bad when it comes to luggage.

The flight itself was fine. The exception is that my luggage was destroyed, and I filed a claim that I haven't heard from anyone.

No Asian Vegetarian food was available on this sector but only fish and chicken and pasta were offered.

The flight delayef for over 2 hours so my route was changed leading to arriving to my destination without my luggage

I felt all of the food tasted the same. And we had five meals over the 16 hrs in the air.

Flight was delayed resulting in a series of unfortunate events. I ran the airport as people were yelling my flight anyone who can’t run wouldn’t have made it! Then the luggage is missing. Good company, execution needs fine tuning.

Movie channels was great. Air hostess could be a little more caring

It is just ok, the sits are very uncomfortable, the temperature too low and there weren’t blankets. The food is mediocre and there are no screens to watch movies.

it was a nice tripe but they need to work on the serving of soda,they should be abled to serve cain soda not on cup.At least each passenger should be entitled to one cain of soda not serving on cup.thanks.

The boarding gate closed too early, I missed my flight and they knew I had checked in, they took off 30 minutes earlier without 4 passengers

Our entire flights luggage was lost, and still not found with no follow up regarding it. The chairs had no headrests, and leg room was mediocre. The drinks we all sugary with no sugar free alternative.

Goin to Kenya from JFK was great. I was able to tell I needed help as I can not fly long distances in the economy idea of a middle seat. I became aware on a flight to paris where after the flight for about a month I had a pain in my right leg I feared might be a potential aneurysm + a weak bladder. Coming back at baggage check-in a let the attendant know and she changed me to an aisle, On check-in at the gate they asked if I paid extra for that seat and i said no and I told them what happened the lady downstairs just changed my flight seat and sent me to the gate to wait, the guy then said no the seat is a (I forgot the exact word he used) for sale seat and I said well she did not tell me that downstairs and then he said someone else had this seat and I said she was looking at the same computer screen earlier and I told her my conditionand she changed my seat. He sai come back later ans he'll see what he can do. I came back and he said the plane is filling up fast there was nothing he could do. On the flight there was an open aisle seat that I was able to take (a little earlier than the attendance liked I would admit - but the door was closed and we were about to take off) on. It turns out the seat was not "sold" because the tv screen and control were not working - no sound and no movies - they attendants said they tried to reboot but nothing fixed and it turned out someone knew the condition and just didn't tell me. It's embarrassing to have to tell everyone you see that you have an issue especially at airport gates where it seems everyone's impatient tempers are on full tilt. Beyond this the flight crew were professional and great -food was as good as airplane food can be (I have not yet tried business class to compare) and it was hot too. I will fly Kenyan Air again and recommend to whoever will listen. If you have a policy or mechanism on the Kenyan side I would appreciate knowing ahead of time what my options are. On the JFK side knowing I was a senior and had an issue got better attention. Thank You.

Flight was late! Why ? No one seemed to know. Looks like the planes windows were never cleaned. My phone camera refused to take a picture of Mount Kilimanjaro.

Flight was originally postponed and then delayed further. No communication at boarding gate or via What's ap or SMS to inform you of the new time so you can plan around it.. No explanations or apologies for the delay.

Horrible airline that charged me $300 for my luggage saying my bag was excess luggage when that flight was super empty. Absolutely ridiculous never flying with them ever again!

Flight was on time. Crew was amazing, minimal announcement interruptions, clean facilities and spaces.

Flight was on time and very comfortable. Staff were friendly and efficient. Food options were good.

Flight delay from Nairobi to JFK causing me to miss my connection. While at NBO waiting more than 5 hours for departure, no Kenyan Air representative made any announcement as to why the delay or when a new time would be given.

Very terrible airline. The flights were delayed for long hours and the customer service is terrible. Never flying with Kenya Airways again.

They boarded backwards so our zone meant nothing!!! My TV was broken, the remote was broke, the head set jack was broke! So i was stuck for 15 hours with no form of entertainment!!! The service was ok but they didn't check on us or serve many snacks. They acted like you were a burden when you hit the call button.

Sadly, flights were delayed both ways with no reasons given other than " operational".

Uganda Airlines notified me less than 24 hours before departure that my early evening flight from JRO to EBB had been moved five hours later into the middle of the night. That was an unacceptable change, putting me in the position of having to find a last minute flight on another carrier, at a high price, to get me where I needed to go. They did not offer refunds, did not offer rebooking options. When I contacted them to cancel my flight and refund, they told me I had to do that through kayak. The phone number listed for customer service was incorrect. There was no way to contact or chat with an actual person. Even online they would not allow me to cancel the flight, only modify it to another time. Their customer care was completely worthless. I would urge you to never fly them, and I will never fly them again. Kayak was also unhelpful. They said I had to deal with the airline for refunds. So neither kayak nor Uganda Airlines have been helpful to me. I have lost the money paid for the original fare. I had to rebook on my own to get an acceptable timetable. I would also urge you not to book through a third-party like kayak because kayak and the airline blame each other. This was a completely awful experience.

The agent you recommended is a big scam. I missed my flight. It’s either you are colluding with your agents to sabotage clients or something is terribly wrong. In overall would give zero ratings.

I missed my flight because you refeered a scam agent.

I like that they provided food during the long layover in Entebbe, other than that, they delayed, they changed the time twice, the flight from Entebbe to Burundi was very uncomfortable, my neck and back were killing me, it felt worse than travelling by road. They should improve on the layover hours, and make the flights sit comfortably.

Probably the worst airline I have flown in recent years. From check in to the on board experience, everything was terrible

improve sercice on board and to assist passengers to get thier needs
