Find Cheap Flights from New York to Antananarivo (NYC - TNR)

Orderliness

Staff showing ignorance on "checking-in once for one trip", say from Abidjan to Blantyre. They kept me waiting but with little help.

The plane is spacious. It gives leg comfort

Clean aircraft, friendly staff, flight was quite empty so it was nice and quiet.

on the return flight the Flight attendants were not attentive. I attempted to purchase duty free and submitted my order slip and neither of them came back to me after asking 3 times. I was disappointed in the customer service. My overall experience would have been excellent had it not been for this incident.

Boarding was easy. clean plane, crew was very friendly. I was very concerned though, when we banked left and did a complete circle in the air. An explanation from the captain would have been terrific. I made sure I was the last one to leave the plane and asked him about it when I saw him at the exit. He told me what happened but I would have liked to know while it was happening. Besides that, the coke and pretzels were divine. :)

coffee was horrible

The plane on this part was not too bad.

Flight attendants excellent. Flights both on time.

Film selection could have been better

cheap(?)

everything - absolutely no frills

Flight attendants were friendly, but they only had limited resources to work with.

Worst aircraft I have been on in years. No wifi or entertainment, no power outlets, only bad wine/beer for a 3+ hour flight is mediocre at best...

I like Ethiopian and have been flying with them since about 1990

.

The person at the check in counter initially gave me a different seat than the one I chose online but changed it after I asked for the same seat I had selected online, hone of the worst seats on theplanee also changed my seat for the addis ababa to manila leg without my knowlege and gave me one of the worst seats on the plane. Ruined the trip for me

Crew, food and entertainment are great. Crew makes sure they keep passengers hydrated!

Plane was late and threw the overall boarding process off

There could be serving of more drinks during the night on the flight. I was dehydrated throughout the flight.

The $600.00 fee to change the flight was too high. For this reason I may not chose SA in the near future.

The gate agent helped half a dozen people (not including those described below) understand they were boarding with the wrong group.

Fully one-quarter of the passengers boarded as disability or premium. This included a party of eight that boarded with one person in a wheelchair because "We're all together."

boarding and gate agent were superb

temperature in the cabin was hot enough to roast a turkey

Seats, video and overall comfort are all very nice on the new 900's.

Nothing.

The in flight entertainment and the pilot being informative about what was going wrong at the Atlanta airport.

The insane process that followed the flight of rebooking - it would have been VERY HELPFUL to have access to the inflight internet so that I could have rebooked my missed connection before we landed in the ATL airport where it was past midnight and there were hardly any staff available for us to talk to and the lines to speak to anyone took literal HOURS to get through.

crew was great

staff from de-icing company failed to show, despite >24h of notice of snow; missed our connection baggage handlers destroyed suitcase

Row 19 on a 737ER is great for room, as long as you don't plan on reclining (I rarely do in a daytime flight)

A little overcautious regarding seating the cabin crew because of possible turbulence, but better safe than sorry, I suppose. However, it is a common occurrence on this particular leg, so don't board knowing you might need to take a "break" before you get to Atlanta.
