I can't say yet as I'm still waiting for my luggage. I thought I had given my TSA # before my first flight but it wasn't on my boarding pass so my initial flying to my destination I wasn't able to utilize the device. I called Alaska Airlines and had it added to my profile. It still wasn't on my boarding pass so I had to go to an agent and have it added which took extra time as there was a line of people waiting to be helped.

I can't say yet as I'm still waiting for my luggage. I thought I had given my TSA # before my first flight but it wasn't on my boarding pass so my initial flying to my destination I wasn't able to utilize the device. I called Alaska Airlines and had it added to my profile. It still wasn't on my boarding pass so I had to go to an agent and have it added which took extra time as there was a line of people waiting to be helped.

The flight made it to the destination. I could not make a seat selection and had to rub shoulders with the passengers next to me for 5 hours.

Love Alaska planes. New. Used to have music while boarding. Neon lights. Excellent service. Always. But no screens. And weird reclining method.

Smooth boarding, smooth flight. Crew was good. I can't believe 5 hours went by so quickly!

Airline boarding experience could definitely go better, though that's not limited to Alaska Air. Couldn't get logged in to the plane wi-fi.

It was my first time, it went pretty well. We did experience some turbulence and wasn’t told anything. Over all everything was easy to get through.

flt delayed 1 hr then 2 hrs then boarded then removed from plane then boarding 2 hr delay then took off 6 hrs late and arrive to wrong city an hour laterer than delayed tiome didnt take flt at 4 and booke for next day today flt delayed 1 hr then caNCELLED 9 HRS HRS IN AN AIRPORT FOR 2 DAYS AND NO FLT just sent me a tckey for a trip nbext week w a stop and wrong airport???!!!! alaska suxcks

It was okay. The seat was too uncomfortable for a premium economy seat.

Plane was ok. I would have liked to watch movies with a screen on the seat, and head phone were not provided. Most importantly the left left and arrived on time.

It was good for lax to sea even tho it was delayed by an hour. That is not this crews fault however.

I actually received a notification from kayak on email but not one by text from Delta when my departure gait changed and I almost missed my flight

New boarding doesn't make sense. Filling front first is slow.

Delta flight was great from the check in all the way to arrival. However, I had a very bad experience. I requested a wheelchair and the wheelchair employee that went to pick me up from the plane in Boston to bring me to the baggage claims told me I have to pay him. I was under the impression that it was a free service and I usually give tips but the person forced me to pay and since I said no because I was upset with his demand when my daughter walked in to pick me up he demanded payment from my daughter who paid him thinking maybe now it is a charged service.

Horrible. Grateful to be alive but spent 13 hours at airport only to return back to my familys house and flight changed to next day. They tried to fix a part on plane, had no back up plane and after 10 hours , reattempted the flight and it STILL wasn't fixed. We got a meal voucher and rescheduled flight but there should be some other compensation for the 15 hours spent in airport

My seat was changed at the last minute and I was moved to the last row, right next to the bathroom despite selecting my seat well in advance. I was also made to check my carry on due to space but when I got on the plane there was significant empty overhead space. Picking up my carry on from the luggage carousel added time to my trip which had already been extended due to delay.

I didn’t not like that I could not select my seat and ended up with the worse seat.

Great, on time departure, friendly and accommodating crew, great leg room, Smith flight

Honestly, I didn’t expect that I will experience this long time wait during the check in. There was only one person who was taking care of the passengers for the economy class and it took us to wait about one hour to do our check i. As a result we barely get to the airplane as the gate was at the end of the airport. That is totally not professional where one crue is working at the registration desk with economy and 3-4 crues are helping for the business class.

I guess they don’t serve drinks on planes anymore

Delta planes have the WORST seat comfort of any plane in history. It's the opposite of ergonomic, in every sense. They also recline minimally, are covered in a vinyl and have no feet rests. Then the disembarking process is chaotic and time consuming (because of the way they load the plane and deal with luggage). Overall, somewhat frustrating but we arrived safely :)

We had a 90 minute delay due to equipment failure that was detected just before we took off. United rebooked my connecting flight.

Everything was perfect except the pad at the top of the seat back. It pushes my head forward into a very uncomfortable position and it is not removable.

Boarding in Paris was a nightmare for us. Why passengers have to get checked luggage tickets and then to go to counter to get luggage weight and send to the conveyor? We counted 14 security and airline checks before getting in the plane. We will never again use United or travel to France, neither stop by IAD airport.

They changed my flight 5 hours before it took off and changed my connecting airport messing up my entire 1st day in Japan.

Ridiculously slow disorganized boarding, ended up 35 min late and people missed connections

Really solid flight! The in-flight entertainment screens are not very touch-responsive in the way that of other airlines’ are, which was my only issue. But otherwise we had good food and drink offerings and the flight attendants were very welcoming.

Left late after one day delay. Even after we were called to board we stood in line for 30 minutes. Seemed disorganized.

They opened my checked bag and even though my lock was tsa approved, they loose my lock and left my bag just like that. Incompetent people, very upset about it. I’ll try to avoid traveling with united

Slight delay but not bad. UA app worked well! Got regular updates of gate changes, etc. Don't have any complaints.

Luggage management is poor, my missing luggage is still lingering.

The boarding process was a nightmare and though we were traveling business class, we were in Group 2 and the organization was terrible. The Business Class on this flight was crowded and did not feel clean and nice. Overall, I would not travel Business again on the American Airline flight through British Airways Not nearly special enough for the considerable cost .

It was on time, which is always a good thing. There wasn’t any food hence my okay rating.

Excellent accommodating crew at gate and on board. Baggage claim and gate checking were flawless.

Seats were very uncomfortable. I paid extra for a seat with more leg room, the seat was no different than a seat at the back of the plane. Flight attendant was rude.

Best flight by a pilot I’ve ever been on as a 62 year old

After multiple delays (I lost count), the flight was canceled due to a "maintenance issue". So instead of a direct flight arriving at 5:00, I had to take a flight connecting through Chicago. That flight was also delayed, partially because the plane from the cancelled flight hadnt been removed from the gate and there was nowhere for the other plane to park. (Did nobody think this might be an issue during the hours after that flight was canceled?) The connecting flight out of Chicago was delayed as well. I didn't arrive until 12:30am the next morning. I should have just cancelled the trip. It wasn't worth the hassle and stress.

I did not enjoy continuously being lied to about the amount of time we would circle Chicago before deciding to redirect to Milwaukee. Then the amount of time we would sit on the ground in Milwaukee waiting for gas, or to take off again. Or the amount of time it would then take to get to Chicago again, or sit on the runway waiting for a gate. The whole time continuously hopefully we would make our connecting flight that kept getting delayed as well. Only to scramble and miss it. Enough with the BS. Tell me the truth. "Sorry, things are backed up and your probably not going to make your flight. You should rebook on the next flight now rather than wait." You'll never hear those words from an airline. Speaking of which. If the flight has been redirected and/or is seriously delayed, how about making the WiFi free for everyone so they get to rebooking and reserving hotel rooms while still in the air. You've inconvenienced me already and now you want me to pay $20 for Internet so I can try to make other plans. Absolutely disgusting!

WiFi was down so no entertainment and I could not work either. The flight was Very turbulent at the end (the last 20 min felt like an eternity) I appreciated the pilot for getting us there safely. The flight attending in first class was kind and attentive to everyone.

The A321(?) model of the flight for 5+hrs has no seat back screens. Getting the american airlines wifi experience to watch movies on your own devices is not the same.

The experience was great and much better than the flight going out. of course I was in first class but the service was excellent

Purchasing tickets on their website is upsetting, they take the consumer for a ride...I wanted 2 tickets for me and my friend but we only had one carry on between the two of us. It was impossible to only pay for one - I had to pay for 2 carry ons and blew $50! Shame on their sleazy business practices! The seats in the airplane are shockingly uncomfortable! In the future I will only fly Spirit if I have no other reasonably priced choice. The flight and the crew were good. But still: Go Southwest Airlines!!!

Terrible. Rude flight attendants. Uncomfortable seats. Nickel and dime every service. No in flight entertainment. First and last time to fly spirit.

Way better than I expected. The plane was so clean- the seats seemed brand new; although not super comfortable as they were lightly cushioned.. The crew helped me lift my bags up to the overhead bin which not many airlines do. I knew there would not be internet or food/snacks but you could buy some if you wanted .

Spirit airlines is very bad airline staff doesnt know how to treat passangers they didnt allow us in the flight we reached 45 minutes ago from flight departure but they denied nd said you are late Very disappointed i never reccomend spirit airlines

They charge you for everything. Even water. They accepted my dog as a service dog in my reservation. Then they asked for a DOT form that was impossible to provide. I had to pay $175 for my service to fly with me, that would protect me from death if I ate peanuts. They did not however, serve peanuts on the plane.

Traveling on Spirit Airlines was awful. It was by far the worst airline we ever traveled on. There is no food service at all unless you paid for it. Even a cuppa coffee or a water was $5 . I’ve never been in a seat so close to the one in front of me. There was literally 10-12 inches from my face to the seat back in front of me. We actually all had to laugh at the size of the tray table. Never see a tray table so small, and I don’t even see the point of it. By booking through Spirit, but after I paid for checked luggage, water, coffee, I would’ve been better off going with our usual airline where everything was included. It actually would’ve been cheaper and way more comfortable. We joked that we were actually surprised they didn’t give us tokens just to use the bathroom. My daughter even knows she would never travel on Spirit again, and she’s not high maintenance at all. Aweful

Flight kept being delayed on airport board without any announcement. We were delayed almost 2 hours. Finally boarded and we had no pilots so we sat on a hot plane with screaming kids and no pilots for 40 minutes. Finally he came aboard and did paperwork for 10 minutes before we took off. No apologies or any explanations or even excuses from ANY staff in the entire process. Worst experience ever on the ground and the air I have had.

Delays delays and more delays in both LAX and San Jose. And then I said something else flight was supposed to arrive in Portland at 12:04 but didn't land until 2:30 PM which made me late for my appointment.

My flight was uncomfortable and crammed. There were no pockets to store things, I couldn’t move my seat back slightly. Beverages including soda cost extra. My husband flew on another spirit airline flight, which was delayed a total of 48 hours, only to be canceled.

Horrible, first flight delayed. They switched my connecting flight while I was en route and even though I was originally supposed to be on the flight going back home to boston, refused to let me board and told me I would have to wait for next flight that was 14 hours later. Ended up renting a car and driving 6.5 hours back home. Still getting messages about flight and it is now showing that the other flight they put me on is now canceled and I would have to wait 24 hours for the next one. I will never book with spirit again
