For an expensive flight to another country, United has a lot of nerve serving pretzels and no meals (unless, of course, you want to buy something to eat). Unacceptable.

For an expensive flight to another country, United has a lot of nerve serving pretzels and no meals (unless, of course, you want to buy something to eat). Unacceptable.

They brought an empty plane to the gate. Then a flight delay was announced for maintenance and waiting on a part. I was then put on a flight to San Francisco instead with a connecting flight to my final destination. Arrived at my final destination 2 hours late.

Flight team stood out for perzonal attention, kindness at bright cheery attitudes at 8am. Very helpful.

Quick and seamless boarding. No entertainment but fast Starlink wifi for this short trip and the staff was really friendly.

We boarded late. The crew at the airport was dismissive. The seat cushion on the plane was uncomfortable.

I dread trans-Pacific flights. They are very long. This was my first time on Universal, and it was my best crossing ever. The staff were professional, the hospitality was great, and the food was delicious. The entertainment system filled the long flight hours. I will seek out Universal flights from now onwards. 🙂

Very disappointed with food service. They ran out of entree selections- so for the last 10 rows only option was lentil stew. Not a fan. Then the morning service (pizza twist) was lukewarm at best- I exited my 12 hour flight having eaten a roll and dessert. They knew it was a full flight.

Premium Plus is a really good idea for longer flights

Flight left on time. Boarding was easy. Arrived to EWR 30 mins early. Luggage was deplaned in good time. Overall a very good experience.

The person I bought the ticket for didn’t make the flight.

The staff could not have been any friendlier. Lots of usb ports on our aircraft.

It was crazy, boarded over a hour late from scheduled departure. Then when arrived in BNA issued with getting off the plane…over 1/2 hour. Not looking forward to flying Air Canada, ever again.

Great flight. Only complaint is it took over an hour for my luggage to get to the carousel on the return to LAX That was irritating

A sandwich and a drink would have been better thank a snack bar...

1 hour late No hot drinks No restroom in the back of the plane

I had wonderful wheelchair assistance through the Montreal airport onto the flight. Air Canada was excellent in this both at the Fredericton airport and the Montreal one where an attendant helped us through customs as well as transport and baggage security.

Flight was cancelled last minute due to Air Canada strike leaving us stranded and having to stressfully find a way home that cost hundreds of dollars in excess cost added to the trip. Having just experienced our mother's funeral service, this was not a good way to end our trip.

Horrible, experience, 5 hours delay, they changed gates 3 times, the last one we had to wait for 1::30 hre for the door to open to get to that gate. 0 apologies from Air Canada, they don’t care at all about their passengers

I had a very disappointing experience with customer service. I was suffering from a severe viral infection that included a rash and persistent cough, leaving me unable to even sit upright. Given the circumstances, I requested travel credits from Canada Air, explaining the potential health risk to others onboard. However, the airline showed no concern for my condition and stated they were not in a position to make decisions based on health considerations. Despite my illness, I received no support or flexibility. Ultimately, I chose to forgo my flight due to their lack of responsiveness. It’s unfortunate that airlines like this operate without prioritizing passenger health and safety.

My return flight experience was one of the worst times I have had traveling anywhere this year. Not because of the flight. It was because there was not enough time allocated to deplane, go through U.S. Customs and U.S. Security to get to the gate for the connecting flight to Boston which I missed, There was well less than an hour between my landing in Montreal from Prince Edward Island to my connecting gate. I even called Air Canada on the morning of my return and noted my concern over the short layover time, not more that 45 minutes. The initial flight was four minutes late. I was seated in the rear of the first aircraft, and it took at least 20 minutes to deplane. The U.S. Customs was a considerable distance from the gate at which we landed. The need for double security seemed unnecessary and redundant. The distance from the security to my gate was again fairly great, and the wrong gate number was listed on my boarding pass. The agent I approached at the flight that was going to Newark, New Jersey was too busy to answer my question as to what gate was for Boston. When I got to the right gate, they had just closed the door to the aircraft even though I arrived a minute late. If I knew the distance to Customs and from Security to the gate, I would have asked for a seat on the next available flight which was 4:30 pm. When I made my call at 6:00AM that morning. When I asked the agent at the Boston gate, he said that the 4:30 flight was already “OVERBOOKED!” I was put on an 8:30 PM flight and didn’t get home until MIDNIGHT. I then had to care for a barnful of hungry animals and didn’t get to bed until 2:00 AM.
