Verified travelerFlew with IberiaMAD-LAXJun 2025
Arrive early to the airport, it takes a long time to check in and reach the boarding gates
Verified travelerFlew with British AirwaysMAD-LHRApr 2025
Get to the point passport control early! Almost missed my flight. Check in very easy, but the sign said 22 minutes to my gate. It took 60 minutes to get to the gate with the huge line at passport control.
IanFlew with IberiaMAD-BCNJan 2025
Iberia website was impossible for me to check in 24 hours before. If traveling Transatlantic, via Barcelona, go to the Transatlantic check in desks, I think they were 59 to 70
Jose MFlew with IberiaMAD-SJUOct 2024
Plan ahead and book flights with an hour in between. Madrid airport is pack and security check points are slow.
JasonFlew with Air EuropaMAD-VCESep 2024
Make sure you double check if the airfare has checked bags included
WilliamFlew with American AirlinesMAD-JFKJun 2024
Madrid’s airport is incredibly windy and cumbersome to navigate. Make sure you have PLENTY of time to get to your gate. Unlike other airports they also don’t announce gate changes, you have to pay attention to the departure screens constantly.
LisaFlew with IberiaMAD-DFWJun 2024
Make sure if you have a connecting flight that you have at at least 3 to 4 hours in between.
Verified travelerFlew with British AirwaysMAD-SFOMay 2024
Terminal 4 in Madrid is not well signed to tell where passengers need to go after each step. Planes are far from the Terminal. Baggage check in is slow.

More check-in counters or faster processing. I arrived early but got to the gate just in time to board the flight, I didn't even have time to use the bathroom. The plane was really dirty, encrusted dirt is everywhere and the plane smelled bad when I entered.

I couldnot board the flight since my previous flight from Lisbon to Madrid arrived too late.

The flight was on the time and everything was very smoothi

Asientos y tener espacio para maleta de mano y no tener que facturar

I miss my flight and they could not rebook me that day because the other flight was full, and for the next day I had to pay a whole new fee again which I think is unprofessional

After we'd boarded , they canceled the flight. The crew didn't even know , we just all received text messages. Then after they deplaned us , AA was just like "too bad, go F your self, we sure ain't gonna help you"

I didn't like that my paid for seat was changed 2 hours before my flight.

The chair cushions may need an upgrade. I have been noticing they are so worn out, thin so you’d sit in a dip 😄. Other than that, all was an enjoyable trip. Thanks AA!

Food. Business class didn't really offer much more than coach.

Waited on the runway for takeoff for 2.5 hours. Air traffic rerouted us. The plane didn't have enough fuel, so had to go back to the gate. Had to wait for a new pilot. Should have landed at 5:22. Didn't land until 9:10. Trash flight.

Bathroom ran out of TP and floor was wet. Crew seemed a bit unhappy, overnight flights may be harder.

It was nobody’s fault - but the plane came 4-hrs late and we were updated randomly in 20-30 mins increments which left us hostage to sit and wait expectantly. It was very long and got very late. Our plane didn’t land until nearly 1 am! Also the toilet wasn’t working. The hosts were nice enough but were clearly “about to pass out” as one told me. Lastly, there was no snack or even time for it. Just a bad experience overall.

Flight was delayed bc of mechanical issue. New plane had different configuration so some seats had to be switched. They called all passengers who needed new boarding cards. They did not call us so we thought our seats were the same and fine. When we boarded they informed us our receipts had changed and we are now all sitting separate and in the back row. Both my daughters had meltdowns and started to cry and once we got on the flight, we figured out how we could sit closer to each other, but this was very upsetting.

The seats were crammed and the guy in front of me wouldn't stop reclining. If AA is cramming extra rows in, they need to take away the reclining in coach. My knees were smashed for 4 1/2 hours and I was very close to confronting the passenger in front of me.

Everything should improve! Service like a low cost but prices like a premium airline. Crew in general with bad manners arguing for everything. You pay for priority access but then they use buses, so your loose your advantage to put your carry on first. That was the purpose for paying for priority. Bording is a nightmare, people accessing the plane for bothering doors, front and rear, no matter which line do you have.

Issues with plane led to multiple gate changes and chaos. Very little communication from the ground crew led to cranky passengers.

I flew business class, at breakfast I asked for a small bottle of olive oil instead of butter and the flight attendant responded with a negative gesture.

They didn't even give us water, everything was sold

They should at least offer water like other airlines, which seems like a humanitarian gesture to me

They gave me an upgrade but charged me for my bag. I felt abused because this had never happened to me before with an upgrade with another airline.

Well. It is a no frills airline. Annoying is that even for the long-haul everything has to be paid for separately. Once you add up the extras the flight is getting to expensive. Then one might as well fly with a legacy carrier which provides far better comfort. Changing flight at MAD airport is a nightmare. The worst airport in the world. Poor signposting, poor passport control, poor security check and long queues. I had 2h transfer time and spend in queues almost 1.5h

All flights with Air Europa you arrive late to the connections of other flights, I missed my train, I had to pay for my train again, the crew are antisocial, you are paying for a service, it is not free, thanks to the travelers they are there, it is the last time I fly with them,

Terrible experience - we won’t be flying with Air Europa again

The crew was not kind , just doing their job but very cold people

Horrible almost missed my flight because my 1st flight was delayed. Airline crew is so unprofessional. The people on the plane do whatever they want kids running screaming. Will never fly this airline again Suitcases never arrived

People point to America as the model of late stage capitalism. My friends, airlines in america at least give you WiFi, and they haven’t quite smashed people into cardboard tv dinner trays yet. Iberia has mastered the tv dinner seat and WiFi is 20 euros. Be serious yall.

Boarding was odd. Gates switched and had to take a bus to the plane. Luggage got lost. Still waiting on one bag. Flight itself was very nice!

Do Not Fly Iberia. Horrible experience. Iberia changes things at random -like the date of the flight and seat you have bought. After buying my flight, they contacted me and told me I had to return a day later. Then when I was boarding the flight, I discovered they had changed my window seat in a row away from the wing, to an aisle seat in front of the toilet! The worse seat on the plane. But it wasn’t just me- a family was scattered all over the plane. I was able to trade my seat because a father was separated from his son. Unfortunately the seat was the window seat directly over the wing, the loudest seat in the plane. I couldn’t sleep, even with noise cancelling earphones. Also, I ordered gluten free meal-which was tasteless and gave me cramps.

I have nothing but great things to say about the crew of the American Airlines flight from Madrid to Dallas. They were fantastic! I do, however, have some disregard for the flight attendant that was late in Dallas, causing us to further delay the boarding of our flight to Portland, and leading to the eventual cancellation of that flight. Because that crew-member was so late, we got caught-up in a weather-related ground stop, eventually causing our pilots to "time-out". So we couldn't get out of Dallas. We would have departed DFW on-time (and before the arrival of the thunderstorm) if not for the lateness of that crew member. The whole time the pilots couldn't tell us whether the flight would be cancelled, and that they couldn't get any information from the airline. By the time we knew the flight was cancelled, all of the flights for the following day were full. So, we didn't even get offered a viable option to get home. The American Airlines customer service desk at DFW was grossly under-staffed. And there were several people who waited in line for four-hours before being helped at that desk. We waited in line for almost 2-hours, until I was able to speak with a customer service agent on the phone (after being on-hold for over an hour). So, once we knew the information about how to get our bag in PDX, and that there weren't any options for flights the next day, we left the line & began searching for another way home. We eventually had to purchase a ticket home on a different airline, in order to get my wife to work on Monday. And we are pursuing a refund of that DFW-PDX leg of the journey. The good news is that the late flight attendant's hair was perfect. And she looked fantastic as she departed the airport & headed back home, while we all hunkered down to sleep in the terminal for the night.

They need to start flying on time. We lost 2 days of our time because they delayed flight both ways.

The flight delay in Dallas created a domino effect that impacted all of the connecting flights. It also increased the number of connections. I missed my flight from Casablanca to Marrakech because of the tight turnaround when landing in Casablanca. . CMN airport was understaffed. Only one person could help while other employees were just watching him. It was an extremely frustrating situation. People were crying and slamming their palms on the counter when speaking to the customer service provider, Allabough (man’s name?). Allabough couldn’t change my flight in the system. simultaneously, I was on the call with America. Airlines customer service rep named Solomon that said he couldn’t change it either. So, I took a ONYA voyages train to from Casablanca to Marrakech to get there on Friday June 26. This was unpredictable trip.

The flight was over two hours delayed. The aircraft was somewhat dated.

There's not enough leg room in economy class. The seats are very narrow as well.

Luggage arrived damaged and protective plastic was lost. I need customer service to contact me or the number for customer service. Thanks.

They boarded us but somehow did not manage to record us boarding, so rather than check if we were onboard they removed our bags from the aircraft. I got a call from Ryanair staff in Dublin when I landed in Madiera asking me where I was!!! When I said I was in Madiera I was told what had happened. Our bags were to be sent to Madiera the next day via Manchester, they didn’t arrive. They are now due to arrive two days before we leave. I don’t see myself using Ryanair again unless I am forced to and even then I may just refuse.

The table at my seat was dirty, the crew was nice, the boarding was swift. An average Ryanair experience but this time the plane was not properly cleaned between flights.

It's not the staff's fault. The cabin crew do their best but the setup in Stansted Airport by Ryanair is poor. The herding of people like cattle is unacceptable before boarding and is something that's in every airport but only in Stansted have I seen the queueing of passengers outside the plane on the tarmac and the crew only turning up with maybe 5 minutes to depart. This is a resource issue . Yes prices are good but seemingly comes with a price of poor treatment of customers. I'll pay more next time

It was appalling, full of young people who were drunk and disobeying instructions to sit down. Crew did nothing to enforce. There was a Ryanair pilot sitting in the aisle opposite me who talked through out the safety briefing so loudly I couldn’t hear. Whole thing felt unsafe

Flight was fine, crew were good, cabin director spoke far too much; disembarking at Dublin Airport and entry into the terminal building was just dreadful, like entering the back door of a neglected factory building. What an awful impression it must give to first time visitors to Ireland.

Crazy long boarding times, messy, inexperienced, overworked, and visibly tired crew, very uncomfortable seats and no compensation for delays.

Good but both flights were delayed by nearly one hour making boarding tedious. We had to wait with no information

Unnecessarily delayed and remarkably inefficient boarding contributed to a significantly delayed departure. Seats/legroom astonishingly uncomfortable even by Ryanair standards (minimal legroom plus reinforced plastic seat backs ensure you get punched hard in the knees every time the person in front moves, and as a 6-foot passenger I had nowhere else to put my legs. Upon late arrival at the gate in Luton we were kept waiting another 20 minutes before being allowed off the plane. Both Easyjet and Wizzair are currently a better bet.

The flight arrived within 15 minutes of schedule. We hate the cattle-like boarding process seen often in Europe. After your boarding pass is checked by the airline staff, you wait standing up in an area with no seating for several minutes.

Awful as usual the air stewardess loved her own voice and would not stop talking on coms for 2hrs please please please shut up I can’t hear my headphones and don’t want to buy juty free
