I'm glad it wasn't only 75% full because I could get a good seat

We waited in the airplane for over 45 min for a southwest employee to make the flight. This cause over half the plane to miss their connecting flight in Denver. When we confronted the desk upon arrival, they told us the only flight they had was the next day leaving at 8:50 pm!!! Or they offered to get us to Burbank or LA, but after that we were on our own to get back to Santa Barbara. I paid for a flight from sba to bna bna to sba. My re entry into mom mode has been 💯 rough because of southwest mistake with my flight. And now I’m leaving to Reno tomorrow for a vballl tournament and just discovered that my leg in Vegas has me and my 3 kids on a stand by flight even though I had booked these ticket last year November!! Do better southwest!

Still need to work out the kinks on the new assigned seating boarding process. Otherwise, a very good flight.

Okay, not wonderful. Short flight. Wi-fi didn't work properly. Stuck waiting for a gate to open upon arrival for 20 or so minutes.

Worst experience I had on Southwest. Still better than most, but the seating was barely tolerable.

Cluster mess boarding. Can't wait for SWA reserved seating. Internet didn't seem to work on the plane.

Great experience flying Southwest. The crew was really kind and helpful, and very friendly with our toddler.

No space for our carryon and needed to check at plane before boarding !

Flight attendants were in a bad mood and we were late

Boarding was quick and simple However when I was at my seat there was a child kicking my me from behind which made me uncomfortable but besides that the flight was smooth

I'm a United 1K member and have ben for 10 years. The gate agent had no control over the boarding process and had us passengers queued for hours as delays were announced. On the plane, the overhead air nozzle was broken so col over was powering through on me and the passenger next to me. Not a great experience for a million miler on United. Feel free to contact me. Josh Smigel - DM426089

I wish there were outlets to charge my iPhone. The crew was great; we had a female pilot who was great with explaining what was happening and delays,

Pushed back only to get deplaned due to a tire damaged by ground crew. They did at least go pretty fast. The bathrooms should be banned under the Geneva convention. No room to even sit straight on the toilet. The under-seat entertainment units block what little leg room there is.

Another delayed flight. When the delays exceed the duration of the flight, it’s a problem.

The internet service I paid for didn’t work at all and the flight crew was not very friendly.

The planes are so dirty! Food crumbs and finger print smudges, Dust over the vents and carpet stains. It’s disgusting.

Overall it was good. The flight was bumpy at times, but the pilot made us aware every time. As a result, no snacks/drinks were made available. Seats were tight but that’s okay as I had a window seat.

Seat horribly lacking in lumbar support. Bluetooth earphone connection Jair wouldn’t work. Food options were quite tasty and staff was professional and efficient as well as welcoming.

Both of the first class flight attendants were rude, to everyone, not just us. The one in coach was more helpful to us than the ones in first class!

You can’t checking with no carry on bag, the entertainment was awesome and the crew very friendly and polite🫶

Patrons with larger bags were asked to check the bags when boarding. Seems like the most effective, and least costly way, way to successfully use the cramped space.

The boarding crew was very helpful with a little special problem I had. The inflight crew - so-so.

Fine. Nothing to write home about. The plane left on time, and arrived on time.

The seat was comfortable, the attendants were very nice and WiFi made my life so much easier with work. Kudos!

After changing the departure gate 5 times making us mo e from one side of the airport to the other and then back the flight was delayed nearly 2 hours. The male flight attendant had a bad attitude with the guest being condescending, disrespectful with people who were already on edge.

American continues to decline in their customer service and its beyond disappointing.

Flight was delayed and after being in the airport for like seven hours, it was canceled.

Charlotte NC agents were great and ended up with decent seats after having to switch flights amidst Hurricane situation. CMH was a different story. Doors to flight closed 15 minutes before departure so we nearly were left behind. Flight crew were OK but nothing to brag about for sure

The one gate agent was very abrupt and rude. Not a good look for American for the day

The plane was very clean. The crew was excellent. The flight was delayed slightly but other than that no issues.

Flight got delayed for 5 hours no good explanation was offered ;(

Cancelled and declined to find alternatives Earlier flight is 2 days later Sent the cancellation notification very late, wish I knew earlier would have stayed to watch the Miami open final game Very disappointing service

The check in process was a mess for no reason. I spent an hour waiting in line trying to get them to print my boarding pass and as a result I missed my flight.

I was shocked that there is no Wi-Fi, my flight was changed and delayed multiple times. In fact, I’m still not home…

Four and a half hour delay in total. What frustrates me most is the poor communication and disorganization.

Fecal matter in seat back pocket. Presumably from a kids diaper.

The flight was canceled, then delayed twice, we were moved gates twice. Short staff at the counter and check in. We waited for our flight 9 hours. Will never use Frontier ever again, or Spirit.

It’s Frontier so they’d charge you for the air you breath if they can work out how but it was on time.

Everything costs something on this airline .... even snacks!! What a racket! We got to the airport nice and early only to wait in a line while there were no reps at the counter. Once we got to the counter to check our bags (which cost almost as much as the flight to check), we were told we were too early?!!! and had to wait an hour to check in. Then, to add insult to injury, because we didn't PAY to choose our seats, we were seated separately. I HATE THIS AIRLINE.

Got to where I needed to be safely. Thank you!
