Wasn't expecting this, but, we actually ended up getting assigned to the first row of seats!!!!! The extra legroom came in handy

Trash experience on all my flights this week. Delay after delay. The flight I’m waiting for has been delayed 6 times and nearly 3 hours.

Southwest has been a nightmare. Delayed flights, missed connections, systems down. Never again am I flying southwest.

had to check bag at gate when there was still overhead bin space. As usual the WIFI didn't really work.

Terrible delay today. also, waited 90 minutes for baggage to unload in Seattle earlier in the week.

Great plane, great attendants,great flight crew,on time. Wonderful flight home..

First time I’ve ever missed a flight and it was an international flight.. Southwest put me on the next flight and it was the best experience possible.

Three delays that got us home hours later than expected.

Everything about our flight was good except for the boarding experience in Mexico. From checking in to boarding was a disaster for us even though our seats wasn't bad.

I paid $50 for early bird checkin and it was a jungle boarding process.

5 out of the last 6 flights i have taken with Alaska in the last six weeks have been problematic in one way or another. And to top it off, now you do not get points for super saver tickets purchased.

Flight crew was nice and exit row was comfy. Entertainment on flight was and I used the outlet. Also the new phone flip down thing is nice.

I am writing regarding my recent flight from La Paz (LAP) to Los Angeles (LAX). While I understand and respect the importance of airline safety procedures, I left this experience feeling deeply upset by the way I was treated by a member of your staff. At the gate, I was informed that my suitcase contained a charging unit that could not travel in its current form. My husband and I immediately complied with every instruction given to us, including opening the suitcase and removing the charging unit. We were ultimately told that we needed to break apart the charger in order to board the flight, which we did without argument. Afterward, I was directed to another employee. I calmly asked whether it had actually been necessary to break the charging unit in order to board, as I simply wanted to understand the policy. Rather than explaining, she responded aggressively, repeatedly asking, “Do you want to stay? Do you want to stay? Because this flight is leaving.” Following that interaction, I was instructed to reopen my suitcase, remove my shoes, and the employee asked my husband whether I had been drinking. I have been sober for seven years, and being questioned in that manner after simply asking a respectful question was humiliating and incredibly upsetting. I want to be very clear that I am not challenging Alaska Airlines’ safety policies. I fully support them and understand that employees have an important responsibility to keep passengers safe. My concern is solely with the manner in which I was treated. I felt intimidated rather than assisted, and what should have been the joyful end of a trip celebrating my marriage became an experience that left me in tears for much of the beginning of our flight home. I rarely submit complaints and generally try to extend grace to people working in stressful environments. However, this interaction fell far short of the level of professionalism I have come to expect from Alaska Airlines. I respectfully ask that this incident be reviewed with the employees involved so that future passengers are treated with dignity and respect, even during time-sensitive situations. Given the distress this experience caused and the lasting impact it had on what should have been a very special trip, I would also like to respectfully request that Alaska Airlines consider providing a refund or other appropriate goodwill compensation for this flight. While I understand this may not be standard policy, I hope you will take the circumstances into consideration. Thank you for taking the time to review my concerns. I look forward to your response.

Attentive and kind staff. Decent boarding for wheelchair bound partner, off boarding is a little lengthy due to waiting for everyone to deplane before aisle chair can arrive. Not sure if there’s a better option.

Several delays without clear communication on timing. Very late beverage service during the flight.

There was plenty if room for my carry-on in above-seat bins, but they made me gate-check it on both flights!

4 hour delays. Poor communication. Loading plane after 3 hour delay and then sitting on the tarmac in a closed airport for another hour. Poor communication was biggest issue.

on time check-in in LAX terrible, in Loreto good.

We were asked to be flexible and change our date and flight for $25. We met guests who were paid much more. Our seats assigned were the last row backing to the wonderful smell & sounds of the restroom. People waiting in line to use it as well. Further, we could not use the $50 to pay for our $120 baggage fees.

Boarding process was familiar but in the San Jose del Cabo airport there was no visible indication of which group was boarding and the sound system was unintelligible. A minor thing, and easy to fix.

The internet was spotty and I was unable to watch any movies on my iPad; the flight was fine otherwise

The plane was very warm the entire time, despite my vents being open. Additionally, we didn't have internet on our personal devices

Flight was suspended mid air for over 1 hour and it was late

Very convenient considering that is a non-stop flight, but the Aeromexico still has old model planes, so the entertainment was very poor and the space for carry-on luggage was very limited.

Flight from MEX to ATL had to divert to Tampa. When we got off the plane, there were non directions on what to do. Nearly 30 minutes just standing around. Finally told to go through security with no boarding passes, and turned away. Then told to to go back. Took forever to leave Tampa for ATL. Missed my connection to Harrisburg.

Every single flight that we got on was delayed by several hours or more. I honestly didn’t think we would get out of Atlanta because our flight was supposed to leave at 7:59 and it kept getting kicked back further and further. Delta stands for Don’t Ever Leave The Airport!

The crew was amazing; Von, Vera and Guadalupe were very friendly and attentive throughout the entire flight. They were friendly and welcoming to everyone. A solid and dedicated team for sure!

The checkpoint hornets are always looking fhrough Americans' luggage keeping what they deem impassible! Grrrrr!

I love the free WiFi!! Crew was nice. Bathroom was decent. First time flying delta in a long time and I enjoyed it. Will definitely look into booking with Delta more but I think Delta is a little more expensive than the other airlines.

Everything was great. The big planes could still stand to have a bit more leg room. Crew was amazing!!

The rear seat on the second leg should be illegal. There’s no way you should make somebody sit that close to the washroom. Very awkward.

Lounges are packed and very poor, food is really bad, for business class in an airline is well below expectations

Mean flight attendant. I wanted to reuse my plastic cup, but he (Matthew) said he can't for safety. I then said "I don't want water then" and he poured me a glass. I hope Matthew gets herpes and spends the rest of his life poor, lonely, and homeless.

I just think it’s unfortunate that Airlines have completely abandoned the idea of serving any kind of decent or even real food on flights, not even on a four hour flight!? Those days are gone, I guess.

Both flights delayed. 2nd flight over 3 hours late mechanical issues

Flight was delayed 45 minutes because originating flight was coming from Newark. No complimentary snacks were offered on this 5+ hour flight. No screens for the flight, but movies offered if you had already downloaded the United app (which I hadn't on my ipad). No USB ports, only a flimsy plug-in port near the bottom of the seat that was hard to see and kept coming unplugged.

Excellent all round, first time flying United. App is very helpful.

The ground crew in Houston were not friendly. The security staff were very rude and reflected an attitude of superiority with rude remarks.

It started with multiple delays, cancellations, re booking, 5 hour lay over and finally on a plane from Chicago to Pittsburgh. Gates, times, etc were changed multiply times. Once on the plane, staff was fine, but built in tv did not work and could not even turn it off. Light at eye level the entire trip, so sleeping was near impossible. No snacks or drinks given.

If United expects people to use their own devices for entertainment they should put charging outlets in each seating area. I arrived with 14%battery power. That is not good when you arrive anywhere and need to communicate for transportation.

Didn't make it back on American Airlines due to a maintenance issue. The communication and updates were terrible. I ended up returning on Aero Mexico which had a much nicer aircraft with a large entertainment screen with movies and shows AND they had a nice inflight meal. That was a treat after being delayed 26 hours! I think some additional flight miles, or something should be offered for that long of a delay ---it was not pleasant at all---very physical and emotional experience.

A chaotic and uncomfortable experience from start to finish. The boarding process was a disaster; despite group numbers, it was a free-for-all that the staff failed to manage (especially after group 5). Once on board, the "entertainment" was non-existent. There are no seatback screens, and the mobile app selection is incredibly thin. The hardware is severely dated. My seat had zero cushioning left—it felt like sitting on a hard board for the entire flight—and the legroom was cramped. To make matters worse, the bathroom was repulsive, with toilet paper, soiled paper towels and liquid/pee all over the floor. When I did interact with the crew, they provided the absolute bare minimum and made me feel like an inconvenience for asking for anything. Avoid this flight if you can.

We changed our flight because of weather. Unfortunately we were on hold for over an hour, but since we were 5 people who all booked individually, we felt more comfortable doing it with an agent. It all worked out in the end.

I think we deserve more than 25% refund for losing first class seats when having to reschedule flight due to weather.

When I got to the waiting area, it was full but when the time came to board, rgete was no plane. The women where you would show your ticket, gave the news saying there was a maintenance problem and that it be an extra half hour wait. We never did see the plane but ultimately, Noone ever saw the plane because there was a fire on one engine. Needless to say, the wait time before it was announced what really happened, was a few hours. Many, many missed their plane transfer because they entered their first train. Also, the electronic info panels up on the different wall for all to see the status of each flight, never stated anything having to do with the long, long hold up. Many people had major problems because they had to swith planes during their trip and that never happened...

We had a 2 hour delay that impacted our comanions further travel. I have a feeling AA knows there is a problem at the Cabo airport and does not account for that.

flight was good until we arrived at cmh ten minutes early but then sat on tarmac for twenty minutes because a plane was at our gate, so we had to wait despite the pilot tellling us that 3 other gates were open.

My flight was delayed four hours without explanation. Gate crew seem to avoid interactions with passengers and we’re not in attendance until flight finally boarded

Having issues traveling with AA for last two years, became a huge gamble

Couldn’t get on internet this trip. On way out I was fine but on way back I couldn’t get it. Also one of our bags did not make it to final destination
