Take this flight regularly. Every single week same thing. Departure delayed. Make up some time in the air. Land at ORD and then wait for gate in "L" concourse Terminal 3 for 30-40 min-which yields a very delayed final arrival. Plus I get to taxi around and see every runway and drive over the bridge (IFKYK) over the expressway 2-4 times in most cases. Change the sched of incoming plane/work with FAA to improve traffic flow at ORD/change the timing of these flights. Whatever it takes. But do better.
American was the airline that Starlux contracted for this trip. I arrived in time to make the connecting flight on American, and then the baggage-handler debacle happened. For some reason, the first class and premium economy passengers' luggage was unloaded first. Never seen this happen before. They had handlers removing the bags from the carousel for those passengers. Meanwhile, all of the economy passengers were waiting for their bags, including me. And there were a lot of bags because it was an international flight packed full. While waiting for 45 minutes, my bag didn't show. Meanwhile, an American representative showed up asking if anyone has a connecting flight to Phoenix. Of course I spoke up, and they proceeded to try to find my bag because I had to take a bus to the actual terminal to catch my flight. Which I was not informed of before I arrived. After another 15 minutes of searching, my bag was finally found with the first-class passengers' bags because they had pulled it by mistake. So I rushed to the terminal with the American representative to catch my flight, and they informed me that I missed it and could not get another flight until the next day. Of course, after being on an international flight for 18 hours, I was in no mood to hear this. Now, to be fair, there were a few American employees who tried to help me. After hearing about the missed flight, they got a supervisor to talk to. I expressed my situation to the supervisor, and she was not helpful until I asked for compensation. She agreed to get me a hotel room for the night. So I agreed, and she disappeared into her office, and I waited. And waited. And waited. And waited. While waiting, I was asked by three different employees who knew of my situation if I had been helped. I told them I was waiting for the supervisor to get the hotel room, and they said they would check. Finally, after waiting for 75 minutes, one of the employees who had asked me if I had been helped arrived with my hotel room and arranged a ride to the hotel for me. Never saw the supervisor again. It was now 8 o'clock; I arrived at 5:45! My rebooked fight was scheduled for 6:11 this morning and I have now been informed it has been delayed until 10:00. So am I happy with American? NO I'M NOT!! ;
My flight was delayed by 8 hours I arrived at airport 4hrs earlier but to see if they can reroute me to get my connecting flt to Hong Kong. They auto rebooked my flt. With no chance. Which I missed this entire reservation through kayak. My next flt they got me on was at 6 am. Misses an entire day of my trip abroad all my accommodations seat assignments were missed and missed adding my TSA precheck to my ticket as well as my vegan meal request so I didnt have meals on any of the flight....so not a comfortable experience. Please help me with accommodations upon my return.
AA delayed the flight for 3 hours and 50 minutes, but delayed the last 2 hours, 30 minutes at a time, so if we knew before, could have stayed at home and worked instead of being at the airport wasting time... The plane's crew was excellent, not their fault.
Having to reschedule flights a day later, they loaded by luggage on the wrong plane from Little rock now I have to HOPE they deliver it to where im staying like they said would. International flight crew was very disgruntled and not very friendly.
The flight was quick which gave me more time to get to my other flight.
The flight got canceled due to mechanical issues, and he to be rebooked and missed my appointments for that day
Delayed flights and lost bags. It was a terrible experience this time.
Overall, from checking in bags to getting on plane, not enough employees to be able to get all on the plane, therefore I was not able to get on the plane, due to no one wea there for me to check in my bag, so I decided to go thru the security point and by the time they were done with my bags, I was told that my bag cannot be checked in, and then found out that the lady that does the check in was boarding the customers onto the plane, she said that she was going back and fourth, there for was not able to get on the plane, which changed all my flights by the time I got to Dallas, I was on standby 3 times, and wasn't sure about being able to get on the fourth plane, so ended up buying another plane ticket, so I could make my destination on time.
Apart from changing gates and terminals yet again and almost missing my flight it was ok. Luckily American airlines was delayed once again.
