The bathroom is disgustingly dirty. It looks like the crew members didn’t clean it on a regular basis. Also, who made the bathroom so small?. I am not a big girl but I still feel very cramped inside. Def unpleasant experience to use the bathroom.

The bathroom is disgustingly dirty. It looks like the crew members didn’t clean it on a regular basis. Also, who made the bathroom so small?. I am not a big girl but I still feel very cramped inside. Def unpleasant experience to use the bathroom.

dropped my bags at Seattle Delta curbside. 1.5 hours before departure. one bag oversized made it. the other was left at curb and mishandled. poor communication from delta in sjc baggage claim. No internet on flight and food choices in business are horrible. You are forcing us to fly Alaska which is shockingly better than the Delta experience. that is a low bar.

attendents were rude and the boarding was disjointed and poor

There was an incredibly surly flight attendant that ruined the experience

After boarding the plane had to wait an hour at the for the copilot to show up before we could depart

The cabin and bathroom experience was poor as the cabin and bathroom were dirty and showed signs of an older plane that had not been updated for Customer’s, comfort and health. There was gum on my seat when I arrived and dirt spots around the fan and light controls. The flight was almost entirely full, so there was no way I could be moved from my seat. Th bathroom had the peeling paint.

Great crew. Comfortable seating. Nice overhead bin space. My app didn't allow me to check in for my flight to BOS. When I called Support, they didn't fix it, but just told me to check in at the airport. Seat back entertainment was great. Could be better if the audio could connect to Bluetooth.

I'm 6' 2" and even in economy plenty of leg room

great! appreciated the last minute upgrade to Comfort+ exit row, as well

Flight delayed then cancelled. Misplaced luggage. Still do not have. Rented car 1100 mile drive. I had to buy some overnight Hotels clothes toiletries gas food at my expense. Still not home. Not sure where luggage is. Over 4 hours on hold to Felta

Starlink internet made the flight time shrink and I was able to work.

The plane was so old. I paid a ridiculous amount to fly business and there was no internet for six hours! This can't be happening in 2026 and especially in cross country flights where there are a high volume of business travelers.

The food could have been better and the entertainment could have better movies or streaming.

Connection times always good online, but not in reality when first leg is delayed (2 out of 2 times this trip).

I purchased a Polaris ticket. The plane did not have the lie flat seats - I was not notified. I actually can not believe they traded a dif plane and did not notify me or refund monies

⭐ Absolutely AWFUL Experience with United Airlines! If I could give United Airlines ZERO stars, I would. The seats have practically NO legroom, making the flight feel like being crammed into a tin can with nowhere to move. Comfort? Forget about it! And the fees? Absolutely ridiculous! They seem to charge you for EVERYTHING. You pay for your ticket, then get hit with extra charges for things that should be part of a decent flying experience. What’s next, charging passengers for breathing? Flying with United feels less like being a valued customer and more like being a walking wallet. The seats are uncomfortable, the legroom is pathetic, and the constant nickel-and-diming is infuriating. For the price you pay, you would think they could at least provide a little space to stretch your legs and a travel experience that doesn’t leave you feeling ripped off. Do yourself a favor and look at other airlines before booking with United. I certainly won’t be rushing to fly with them again. Absolutely disappointing from start to finish!

My flight from Boston to SFO was fine. Crew was friendly and helpful. Food was mediocre. Fright from SFO to MNL was not as good. My flight attendant was friendly but didn’t seem to have a lot of experience. She seemed overwhelmed. Also, this was the only red eye business class flight I’ve flown which only served dinner 2 hours after takeoff in a 13 hr flight. When I woke up 1 hr before landing, everyone was eating so I assumed bkft was being served. I pushed my button for help and no one came so I approached my flight attendant and she said they don’t serve bkft but she gave me choices for lunch or dinner. I routinely fly business class but I was disappointed with the lack of service and attention I was given on this flight. Also, most airlines will offer a snack or coffee before bkft is served but this was not offered during this flight. Overall, it was disappointing.

It's not United, but TSA security at Terminal A in Newark is a disaster and seriously makes me consider switching to flying out of JFK. The touchless TSA pre-check had a line of over 50 people and the bag screening was so slow that it limited the flow of people through the facial recognition process. It is the only airport that I frequent that has this issue and makes me reconsider whether I should fly out of Newark given the wasted time and frustration it causes. As I said, it is not a United issue but will impact United if people choose to stop utilizing Newark airport because of the poor experience.

The food could be much better. Also very unfortunate that most of business class seats were empty but I could not upgrade.

Bag got checked but I thought one personal item was guaranteed.

Friendly crew and pilot. And thank you to the pilot for his smooth landing technique where the wheels don't hit the ground hard - that should be table stakes but doesn't seem to be the case nowadays.

Seats are getting smaller and smaller. In flight movies are poor compared to other airlines. Food is mediocre.

My flight left Honolulu EIGHT hours late due to lack of flight crew. This was the second time in 2026. The first class staff were excellent ... personable and friendly. The food was okay ...

The food in first class has taken a big downturn

The flight was delayed and gate changed so that was not fun and the flight to Dallas from LAX was very delayed on Sunday. It was just not a great experience due to the delays both ways.

Nothing available at the assigned hotel as far as brush, toothbrush, etc after forced layover with bags that departed

Cabin staff were very disengaged, spoke with no eye contact, dismissive. Disappointing compared to my United experiences.

Flight attendants were pleasant and helpful. Pilot gave fair warning about turbulence.

First no airplane at the gate because the previous flight was canceled (and they didn't know?) Then we board and there's a maintenance issue. Then we're told the technician doesnt have the right certification and they need to call another. Then FINALLY we are taxiing. But wait! Flight plans expire after 3 hours and we were not granted permission to take off. So taxi was halted while a new flight plan was filed. Then....no beverage service. Never flying American Airlines again. If they mess up operations this much, how good can their maintenance or training possibly be?

Crew timed out for a 7:20am flight. They had to fly another crew in. Didn’t leave until 3pm. Very poor communication throughout the day. Received a $12 food voucher and 8000 miles for compensation. Bags delayed in San Diego - came in on later flight. Delivered around 11:30pm
