Boarding can be a bit crazy. TSA was quick and the airport seems to be laid out in a logical way.

My first flight from LGA to STL was not good. They didn't do service until over halfway through the flight, the internet didn't really work, and the crew all seemed like they didn't want to be there.

My first flight from LGA to STL was not good. They didn't do service until over halfway through the flight, the internet didn't really work, and the crew all seemed like they didn't want to be there.

We were stressed about landing as our connecting flight was about to start boarding, being unfamiliar with the airport or where the gates were. We exited the plane to discover we were at the gate we needed. We would be getting back on the same plane but nobody told us we could have just stayed onboard. My wife and I were seated on aisle seats across from each other. We asked if there was a way we could sit together. Once we were at cruising altitude they let us move to an unoccupied row so that was nice.

It’s Southwest. The seats are small, the snacks are meh, it’s $50 to check a bag. It’s exactly fine. Could have been better. Could have been worse. It’s not Spirit

They delayed my flight all day but didn't try to reschedule me until all other options were gone. Ended up on a red eye. Not happy. Lesson learned, don't book the last flight from SJC to RDU.

Every single flight I take with southwest is delayed by at least one hour. Unbelievable

When I made my reservation it would have been nice if kayak would have included my luggage. Unaware that I had to pay $45 each way. Should have asked at reservation time if luggage was being checked

Crew was a little surly. But plane left on time and arrived early. All one can ask for. New 737 Max was nice.

Flight was delayed about 50 minutes and completely full. they did the usual demand for people to check carry-ons. they called all groups to board very fast only to stand in the gangway after having boarding passes scanned. Why don't airlines board from the back to front - since they now have assigned seats? our stewardess got drink orders confused, so she just called out "cranberry". etc.,.. I wish they wouldn't serve pretzels snacks with a powdered coating, as it sticks to your hands and they don't have wet wipes. don't want to lick my fingers after hanging out in the terminal for over an hour.

Flight time kept changing and so did the gate. It was very frustrating

We were headed for Florida and anxious to get there. Everything was absolutely the best. This is our first time with Southwest and it’s now our go to airline. Best ever.

A 6hr delay is going to put a damper on all reviews. It was almost impossible to get into the Delta club also. Zero conveyance. I could not use my status for anything. Makes me wonder why am I loyal to delta?

The flights were on time; all went as expected which is a big positive! No delays! There was no food or drink service in any legs, which I understand due to the short flight time.

The Delta assistsed services were awesome for my aunt. So very helpful.

Probably not the fault of Delta but there was delay after delay after delay and I ended up getting home 4 hours later then I should have at 1:30 in the morning

Staff was exceptional! Everyone was kind, professional and friendly making the trip very pleasant. Thank you!

Very late arrival at PWM. Late jet getting to ATL. Equipment problem with aircraft - could not get enough water onto plane., Another delay getting FAA approval for flight with bottled H2O. Not the crew’s problem.

A little bumpy ride . No food was being provided due the the turbulence. That was ok it was a short flight to my standards.

Pretty standard flight. Delta has a good selection of movies.

The flight was so late that I had to change connecting flights, turning a five-hour trip into a fourteen-hour nightmare.

Despite being delayed, we would still give a high score for this flight experience. For the first time in quite some time we had excellent customer service throughout our entire round trip. The flight attendants were the most polite we have experienced in our last ten flights at least (non of which were Delta and include business class). The food offered was a better selection than most—we just didn’t have any of it. Overall, almost as good as flying used to be. Thank you to Delta.

Tiny seat made for midgets. You can’t put a normal size human in such a tiny seat for 8 god damn hours! Hot plane, no air. Lost bags at Rome airport for 8 hours, lucky to have found them. Horrible flying experience, United Airlines should be embarrassed!

The issue is the flight is delayed, which causes me Missing the connecting flight by 3 mins. Remember the connecting flight is a US codeshare flight so UA should be able to inform the operating airline about the delay.

Seats are made for children. An 8 hour flight with tiny seats is more like a cattle car. Lost bags at Rome airport caused a 7 hour delay.

Good, our flight was delayed but that was totally out of their control due to weather and a presidential visit.

The flight was delayed by two de-icings. The seatbelt did not work correctly. It did not stay tight.

The seats on the aircraft are like sitting in a rock. During the boarding process they recognize Active Duty Military, why don’t they recognize Retired Military. I’ve always preferred Delta, this flight confirmed why I still prefer Delta.

It was literally one of the worst travel experiences ever. My flight got delayed by over an hour and there was no communication of this from the gate staff. I realized it by checking the screen periodically. Once on board the flight attendants continued to serve alcohol to a man who was clearly already drunk and that was making a bunch of commotion. Never again will I fly United!

At least the delays were short. Business class, even in the new planes is very crowded now with crappy tray tables

All good except paid for wifi that did not work

Flight cancelled due to fog. No other flights available for 36 hours. Directed by United to book passage on another carrier, and submit receipts for reimbursement. Did that. United now states they will not reimburse. Currently out 2 grand.

My luggage was lost at some point during my layover between Chicago and LHR. I landed Tuesday morning, and did not get it until Thursday night. Ironically, the people at the ticket desk had added a “priority” sticker to my tracking tag.

The flight was delayed multiple times. Breakfast was not served and only an apology given and statement that we could find better pastries in Paris. Seats were extremely narrow and uncomfortable.

The flight could have actually taken place. Canceled flight and no option to rebook that day.

Crew was helpful and cheerful especially when they had no refreshments to work with. The plane was never serviced and had nothing but limited water and coffee onboard. For the price point, a concern of services.

I bought wifi and most of the flight could not even use it my apps would just spin. I couldn't even listen to music. super frustrating.

Seating was horrible. Small seats. Access to flight information and extras very iser unfriendly. Kept losing internet after paying for it. Staff in madison was as unprofessional and unhelpful.

There were several different delays but we ended up being delayed a total of 40 mins or so. It was annoying we had a gate change which made it take longer to leave DFW, and we had to check our carry on. Ugh

The counter/baggage counter was busy and so many people missed flights. We got stuck sitting on the plane over 2 hours at the gate while they were doing an inspection is wrong. Many of us missed our connecting flights because of it.

Our flight was changed from Madison to DC to Madison to Charlotte.

We were told we had no flights before our flight was continually delayed then cancelled.

Airport staff was terrible, they made up excusses on how I can get to my terminal, I missed my flight then had to pay for A whole other flight! Worst experience ever, even A employee also loughed and said yea sorry for our poor training.

THE BARE METAL SEATS AT THE FRONTIER GATE IN CLEVELAND HOPKINS AIRPORT ARE DISGUSTING...BUT JUST A LITTLE BETTER THAN THE SEAT MATERIALS ON THE PLANE! THE "COMMERCIAL" ANNOUNCMENT PUSHING THE CREDIT CARD DEAL IS OBNOXIOUS AND UNWELCOME! THE VOLUME OF THE OFFER ANNOUNCMENET BLARES LOUDLY AND IS FILLED WITH A HYPED UP, CANNED SCRIPT. BOTTOM LINE IS THE FLIGHT AND THE CREW WERE VERY GOOD EXCEPT FOR THE ABOVE.

Maximizing profits is one way to a healthy bottom line, the other is repeat business and referrals from satisfied customers. Frontier has clearly chosen the former. One of many examples: Family emergency required me to cut trip short. Headed to the airport to fly standby for the return trip I had already paid for (yes I understand prices vary with demand etc). Was told there is no standby and that I would need to pay for, despite what it's called by the company, what amounts to a new ticket. And surprise surprise, there turned out to be dozens of empty seats on that flight. To say nothing of the sleazy third and fourth party resellers, the flight/ticket insurance I elected and thought I had paid for that mysteriously wasn't there when I needed it before I left, and on and on with third world sleazy management decisions. The inflight coffee (that I had to pay for) was very good though.

You have to be super careful when purchasing as *everything*, a carryon or a sip of soda, has a fee. They relentlessly chip away at you with surcharges and extra costs … and it’s not always clear what you are getting when you buy your ticket. Will not fly them again. And … crew were not friendly until off boarding .. like they don’t like working for Frontier.

Air was off while waiting on the runway and the temperatures became very uncomfortably hot. Flight attendants were very loud and rude the entire flight.

I booked tickets from San Diego to Cincinnati months in advance to attend my sister’s wedding, a wedding where I was serving as the officiant. At 10:00 PM the night before my 6:00 AM flight (just 8 hours before departure), I received an alert that my first leg to Denver was delayed, causing me to miss my connecting flight to Cincinnati. When I called Frontier customer service, they informed me that they couldn't get me on any other flight that would get me there in time for the Saturday wedding, let alone the rehearsal dinner. Because I had a critical role in the wedding, I was forced to buy a last-minute ticket on another airline for three times the original price, costing me well over $1,000 extra. Even with the emergency flight, I still missed the rehearsal dinner entirely. When I spoke with Frontier, they agreed to refund my original ticket, but showed zero care or accountability for the massive financial burden and distress they caused. Their "compensation" for causing me to spend an extra $1,000+ and miss an irreplaceable family event? A $75 Frontier voucher. Frontier completely dropped the ball. Their customer service showed zero empathy, and their reliability is non-existent. I will never fly Frontier again, and no one else should either if they actually need to get where they want to go. Tip for anyone flying from Denver to Cincinnati: Avoid Frontier connecting flights or layovers at all costs, especially for time-sensitive events. Book direct flights with an airline that actually offers reliable customer support and rebooking options when delays occur.

I will never fly Frontier again, and I strongly advise anyone who actually needs to arrive at their destination on time for an important event to book with literally any other airline.

Late, terrible communication, horrible planning of passenger seating until the literal last minute. One of the worst flying experiences of my life. Y'all suck

It was a no frills flight. Would have liked to be able to charge my device

Both flights were delayed. The sizing of bags is crazy. I know it is advertised as a no frills cheaper option but it does feel like you are being extorted for money the whole way-- $20 dollars to talk to a gate agent? Charging for soda a pretzels? I don't think I will be flying Frontier again if I can help it. That said, all the staff were wonderful.
