Cons: "WiFi wasn’t working"
Cons: "Southwest crews are usually nice or funny but our male attendant was a grump, giving everyone distainful looks as he took drink orders and not uttering a single other word to us. No one seemed to be in a good mood on this crew except for the other guy waving goodbye to us as we deplaned."
Pros: "I just LUV Southwest"

Cons: "Attendants not much attentive"
Pros: "Overall customer service was great and friendly staff.... look forward to flying again soon"
Cons: "N/A"
Pros: "As it is most times Southwest employees try to make flying a pleasure. Definitely not "Stuff Shirt" but also professional. The flight attendant gave the mandatory safety announcement in a way that got people's attention with a smile. People actually listened. He gave a bonus quiz at the end. Free drink, sack of peanuts or pretzels for the first one with the correct answer. Very memorable."
Cons: "Wish there was a nonstop Phoenix to one of the N.Y. airports but unfortunately, it is what it is"
Pros: "timely departure, no major delays"
Cons: "landing was a bit rough. staff should inform customers that any seat is available to sit in once on board the aircraft. a ‘friendly reminder’ would serve those who’ve never travelled with southwest before"
Pros: "Choosing my own seat."
Cons: "Delays"
Pros: "The cabin attendant came with drinks and snacks several times. She really brought a special snack to a crying, squirming toddler. I can only hope the rest of the cabin had service as great as we did in the front."

Cons: "After we a boarded and pulled from the gate they decided to do maintenance on the plane."
Pros: "Staff was all very accommodating and helpful. Process was very smooth."
Cons: "I don't like that you are asking me this question when I never took this flight. My son took a flight on Southwest from New York to Milwaukee but he did not buy his ticket through kayak. I have no idea why you were messaging me when I didn't take a trip at all."
Pros: "Seats were comfortable. Service was great. I loved picking my own seat too"
Pros: "Flight was going to be delayed significantly - first by an hour, then eventually almost 4 hours, because the plane coming from Philadelphia was unable to take off. Luckily Southwest got a different plane to take over our route, and we left (more or less) on time. It's nice for once to report an airline completely fixing a delay instead of making the passengers deal with it."
Pros: "The service was typical for SW Airlines"
Cons: "On both outbound and inbound legs of my round trip we were delayed - the first leg was 1-1/2 hours delayed and the return leg was 2-1/2 hours delayed. That is 100% delay record! This airline does not have it's act together"
Pros: "All went well, they did as I expected"
Pros: "Seats were comfortable, service was fine."
Cons: "Boarding experience."
Cons: "Food and entertainment system"
Pros: "It was easy to get to the gate. The gate crew called out seats A-E as Amazing, Brilliant, ... Excellent."
Cons: "I could have used more leg room."
Cons: "Cheaper drinks lol"
Pros: "good flights"
Cons: "EWR is a dump"
Pros: "Crew was great. Seat was comfortable even though in the last row..helped that there was no one in the middle seat."
Cons: "Under seat luggage space on aisle seat is smaller than middle and window so is difficult for carry on/leg room."
Cons: "Great service. Wish we flew Alaska both ways instead of United ☹️"
Pros: "The seat was fine and the seatbelt just barely fit."
Cons: "Saw a bedbug on my window!!! Wasn't notified that they were serving breakfast when I reserved one. No free wifi. No monitors in the seat to track plane progress and watch a movie. All of those either cost extra or were separate. Due to constant line I was forced to use the bathroom when I landed"
Pros: "Food was excellent service was good"
Cons: "Boarding was too slow we sat at gate for almost an hour for baggage to be loaded"
Pros: "Staff was kind"
Cons: "Flight Delay"
Pros: "They were helpful during our delay."
Cons: "Couldn’t download the Gogo app to watch anything."
Pros: "Nothing was exceptional"
Cons: "The entertainment system was terrible. Kept getting thrown off in between while watching a movie multiple times"
Cons: "Flight was delayed taking off now we are in Seattle sitting on the tarmac for over and hour 15 mins to just get to a gare"
Pros: "The only positives were that the flight was on time and crew members were reliable."
Cons: "The seat was very dirty. I even felt the need to wipe it before I sat down, and the tissue I used became black. Otherwise, I felt like the plane was tight and uncomfortable for a 5.5 hour flight. At the end, one crew member was complaining about how slow we were to disembark to the people on the plane."
Pros: "Alaska airlines is a very good airline!"
Cons: "Need better food items"
Pros: "Lots of room, both legroom and overhead luggage room."
Pros: "This survey is great because it lets customers have a say in the airline industry’s practices and operations and the above question should have an N/A option because I neither consumed food nor used entertainment so I didn’t experience those two features on my flight and it would be misleading for me to give either item a rating of more or less than three"
Cons: "I buzzed the flight attendant and asked her to bring me water and I detected surprise and perhaps mild annoyance at my request and to make matters worse she brought back a half-full water cup as opposed to a full one"
Pros: "I didn’t know what to expect but I had an excellent trip. Enough leg room for a five hour flight. The entertainment was excellent, many choices of movies. No food was provided, you have to pay for any food or snack. You are given a cup of soda not the whole can. But I came prepared with food and drink. Overall, very good airline!"
Cons: "No food or snack are provided unless you purchase it!"
Pros: "In-flight internet worked pretty well. Everything else about the flight was good except for the breakfast sandwich."
Cons: "Breakfast sandwich was not nearly as delicious as the picture suggested. It was a lot of tough bread and not much flavor."
Pros: "Everyone was friendly"
Cons: "My luggage remained in Newark. Got to Kalispell and they don’t have it. Think it was never loaded. My travel companion has her lullage. Also any reimbursement is on another flight. Probably won’t be flying again so if no benefit to me. Disappointed"
Pros: "I liked everything about this Airline the hospitality the service they treated you with respect my flight was on time and the times that I have flown Alaska Airlines we've have never had any delays, the crew acted very professional and we're very attentive. Check in was a breeze"
Pros: "I like the fact you can keep chats on board for free"
Cons: "Alaska Airlines as usual as American companies won’t provide with snacks for free just water. Flight attendants passed by and didn’t get my order or seems to notice my interest in the menu"
Pros: "Everyone was lovely and to be honest it was the best plane experience I’ve ever had. I’ll take a polite and friendly crew over silly marketing gimmicks any day, which is what it feels like you give your travelers."
Cons: "Nothing."
Pros: "I always enjoy flying with Alaska. The crews are generally nice and the leather seats are comfortable, even in cattle class. I like that they often give out the Biscoff biscuits, yum. I had lots of room on several of my flights, on one of them I had an entire row to myself, which was awesome."
Cons: "The fact that even on 5+ hour-long flights they still charge for the food is a little silly to me. But maybe that's how they all do these days. Still, it's unfortunate, or, it might have been nice to have more than one snack served up on such a long flight. The wifi is a little hard to maneuver, even with an instruction card. The Go-go inflight thing is cool, but they don't really advertise that you need to download the app while you're still on the ground...which they should advertise in their concourses or something."
Pros: "Entertainment was great."
Cons: "We were delayed due to “no water on the plane”. But appreciated the pilot informing us."
Pros: "Comfortable seating but I paid for it"
Cons: "Flight attendants seemed bogged down. The one from first class came into premium seating to help some people"
Pros: "Living in Seattle, there is no other choice. Alaska gets me where I need to go with great service, great planes and direct flights to my most important destinations. Considering I have banned United, Southwest, and Spirit from my travel searches, it's nice to know my hometown airline is so damned good."
Cons: "Seated next to 3 screaming children, flight attendants rude and unattentive, delays were not explained"
Pros: "Boarding was extremely easy and the staff was great."
Cons: "They ran out of breakfast food really fast. And it being an early flight it was very upsetting."
Pros: "Flight was good but my first flight was cancelled which gave me a 6 hour layover in Seattle."
Cons: "6 hr delay and arrive at Newark at 7:30 am and have to fight traffic to get home"
Pros: "I like everything from this company"
Pros: "The crew and especially a certain male flight attendant were absolutely wonderful! Great sense of humor and personality. As this was my first time flying with Alaska, I feel very positive about future travels with them."
Pros: "We finely got there"
Cons: "Getting on and off plane then waiting then getting back on plane then waiting to get the count right. Then leaving."
Pros: "Everything is good. Service Excellence all around!"
Cons: "More options in snacks."
Pros: "The people make the difference. Cheerful crew made the entire flight better."
Pros: "Nice short flight with no turbulence, comfortable temperature made it easy to sleep."
Pros: "The flight attendants were cheerful and helpful. They like adds the back of the plane right after the first class which aided in getting everyone to their seats quickly. The plane was clean and up to date."

Pros: "Staff was friendly and accomodating."
Pros: "Really good flight with great crew"
Cons: "I wish there were vegan options"
Cons: "Didn't get to thank the whole crew!"
Pros: "Good pilot, helpful announcements"
Cons: "Sat in front of emergency row so couldn't recline"
Pros: "My first time on Alaska. I usually fly JetBlue or Virgin. They had great entertainment options (you have to use your laptop or cellphone) and free wifi for messaging. They staff were especially accommodating and hospitable."
Pros: "Watched a great movie without being charged extra! Stewards had a sense of humor & were efficient and kind."
Cons: "Seems like the seats get smaller and smaller."
Pros: "Flight attendants friendly"
Cons: "Food is a microwaved t.v. dinner at best."
Pros: "I liked paying $10 for an iPad where I could watch whatever movies and tv throughout the flight. I also changed my flight by doing a same day change and talked with two women who were both WONDERFUL!"
Cons: "There was one crew member who was slightly rude to people."
Pros: "Boarding was good, crew was average, seats were uncomfortable especially for a long flight"
Cons: "no free snacks were offered despite the distance and time of flight. only purchased items available and not appetizing !!"
Pros: "Plane left on time, staff was friendly"
Pros: "The staff were very friendly and charismatic. The lady at the check-in desk moved our flight up to help us avoid delays. Everybody was extremely helpful about getting my wife a wheelchair and getting her on and off the plane. Everybody always had a smile. The flight itself was smooth...barely any turbulence and good landing."
Cons: "The plane was too hot"
Pros: "Enjoyed the friendliness of the crew"
Cons: "The media on this flight was a little outdated"
Pros: "Yes the crew was great."
Cons: "It was a short 2.5 hr flight. Jet blue provided packaged snacks and a soft drink at no additional charge. Other airlines charge for everything. A carry on and a handbag were also allowed which others don't. The seats are leather and have more room. Seems Jet Blue is the last one of those traditional airlines giving more for your money. Thank you Jet Blue ! I am sold."
Pros: "Amazing crew!"
Cons: "No delay"
Pros: "Los asientos amplios"
Cons: "The snack bar, Couoh he better"

Pros: "The crew was super friendly!"
Cons: "More food / food more frequently"
Pros: "The seat was good, snacks is good."
Cons: "I wish the crew would did a little more to ask the people behind me stop playing the loud music and talking loud. Also rap music with bad language with children next to it is not a good idea. I actually like rap but not listening loud with the speaker on with kids in the plane is not considerate."
Cons: "Wasn't their fault but it was a pretty turbulent flight. It's winter and we flew NY to Costa Rica, this is expecteddue to the wind, in the winter, in warmer climates. you could tell the pilot was doing his best to avoid turbulence though & the staff were ultra professional."
Pros: "Everything"
Cons: "Nothing"
Pros: "Aircraft nice, clean and modern"
Cons: "Entertainment had technical issues."
Pros: "Leg room and personal item room under the aisle seat is good. Crew was good. Flight was on time. There was room for carry-on bag this time."

Cons: "The flight was delayed for like an hour"
Pros: "They have hot towels and unlimited snacks"

Pros: "Excellent flight attendants extremely helpful to make you comfortable"
Pros: "Great pilots who were very communicative. So glad the JFK to SEA route now has the newer planes with the mint layout."
Pros: "Staffs was very attentive and sweet. They made sure I was ok, provided snacks and drinks. Pilot said hello to me and my sister and we had a short chat, I felt very happy with the staffs friendliness and attentiveness."

Pros: "Ample leg space, super clean, very amiable staff, free media, all round excellent. Positive feel."

Cons: "Nothing was bad"
Cons: "In flight entertainment wasn’t working correctly"
Pros: "The entertament options from new releases to tv shows was good .."
Cons: "The staff was disorganized and seemed a bit frantic at one point they announce a need for a doctor on board .. we where never told that the passanger was allright .. There was a chilld who sat behind me that kick my chair the entire time and stuck his hands in between which where sticky in between the seat over and over again grabbing me he was loud and sick with what seem to be a cold and kept touching me though the seat would not listen to the adult that was with him i understand that he is a child but this went on the entire flight which was over five hours my back is still not ok .. snacks where serve late into the filght once.. staff was not friendly..."
Pros: "Free WiFi was great, but wish I could sign in with my Amazon account instead of setting up TrueBlue."

Pros: "New plane with self service snacks and drinks."
Cons: "Mechanical problems delayed the flight one hour."
Pros: "Convenience of time."
Cons: "Was delayed but didnt know why. Sat on the tarmac for an hour and a half. My audio didnt work for my TV"
Pros: "Very impressed by JetBlues seats- feels bigger than seats for international flights!!"
Cons: "Inflight entertainment was relatively new and varied but remember to bring ur own headphones!! Esp those newer iPhone owners!!"
Pros: "Great crew and the standard JetBlue snacks, WiFi, direct TV"
Cons: "Needs to upgrade. TVs are tiny for a cross country trip."
Pros: "Service, equipment, timeliness were great."
Cons: "WiFi was so slow my email wouldn’t load. Wish for decent food on a five hour flight."
Cons: "Our prior flight arrived 30 minutes late and we had to run to the opposite side of the airport. We were there before the departure time but the staff gave us a hard time saying they were going to lock the doors on us. It wasn't until the flight crew ran up behind us that they finally didn't have an attitude and said we were fine. Online entertainment didn't work, no shows, the map doesn't have a time or useful info. My row was skipped by the crew for snacks. The guy came from behind first, which I didn't see and then one the way back, he didn't even look at my row or the row in front of me."
Pros: "Efficient boarding, capable crew, mbetter than standard free snack options. Decent amount of leg room due to it being an older plane."
Cons: "Could have used another round or two of water/beverage offerings as the cabin air is always so warm & dry. Disappointed in lack of power source for charging devices on such a long flight, but the plane seemed way too old to accommodate that."
Pros: "The crew was friendly."
Cons: "The boarding policy changes are confusing. No longer boarding from the rear of the plane and no explanation of how to board sooner without buying an extra space seat. Also the seats are less comfortable."
Pros: "Friendly, capable attendants, smooth & efficient boarding process. A couple decent free snack options. Due to it being an older plane, leg room is decent."
Cons: "This and it’s return flight (back to back with a red-eye) are on an older plane without charging ports for all the devices we have nowadays. Makes it difficult to get a full charge to last for the 6 hour flight. Could have used another round of beverage offerings as the air is so dry and warm. Other than that nothing really to complain about!"
Pros: "Leg room was good."
Cons: "$5 for the use of a pillow. Boarding was a little confusing"
Pros: "The ride was a bumpy one. The captain kept us informed the entire way. It kept the lady next to me very calm and that was appreciated. The flight attendants were very professional and courteous."
Pros: "Attentive CREW and proactive."
Pros: "Good selection of movies, friendly staff"
Cons: "Seats did not breath at all and caused me to sweat. Placement of movie controls on armrest was very poor and caused me to continually stop the movie accidentally. Flight attendant did not inform me of the cost of beverages (or that they even had a cost) until after I had asked for two."
Pros: "The customer service was amazing!"
Cons: "The flight was about an hour delayed."
Pros: "Great service, delightful crew, flight went in a smooth and timely manner. Very satisfied."
Cons: "Although the seat had enough of leg space, the folding table in a back of the chair in front of me was malfunctioning, crooked and unstable to a certain degree; I could not push the back seat down. But over all my experience was good"
Pros: "the extra room"
Cons: "My flight was cancelled due to weather (understandable) but jet blues customer service desk was very unfriendly and not helpful"
Pros: "extra leg room that I purchased."
Cons: "gate personnel were rude. called passengers by group, then told them they were blocking the way for other passengers! flight attendants had no personality and didn't interact with passengers I will not fly with this company in the future."
Pros: "Free wifi, easy boarding, friendly and quick service"
Cons: "Could have used more direction to help people know where to load their carryons so they didn't put them too far forward in the plane"
Pros: "Customer service and seat space."
Cons: "Food could have been better"
Pros: "Overall a pleasant trip, nice crew."
Cons: "Entertainment was off / broken for many seats. Mine was busted but my neighbor's worked fine. They made an announcement for broken seats to hook up to Wi-Fi for entertainment for same programming, but that would mean watching on my little android."
Pros: "Comfortable seats that reclined slightly. Friendly staff. Good assortment of movies/TV channels/snacks. We arrived 20 minutes early to our destination, with the smoothest landing ever!"
Cons: "First off the TSA line was changed right in the middle of waiting in it. They combined two lines into one giant line, putting the other line in front of my line. I know part of this is TSA, but JetBlue has some pull/say in how their terminal works. This doubled my TSA wait time resulting in a 1hr 15 min wait for security. Second, the flight was 20 minutes delayed. Not the best JetBlue day."
Pros: "When I asked for a seat change the crew was very accommodating"
Cons: "With covid in Seattle I was placed next to a restroom. I did not see any bathroom sanitation occurring during the flight, and no sanitizer available anywhere."
Pros: "Super friendly staff, great service and delicious food. The competition has nothing compared to Delta. We’re switching"
Pros: "Flight was good and crew were good. Nothing very outstanding but by no means a terrible flight."
Cons: "The in flight screens weren't working well."
Pros: "Flight was on time out of JFK, and quick and easy to board. We took off on time and landed 30 minutes early. This is was a great trip, and I love Delta."
Cons: "The cabin temperature was very hot"
Cons: "Great flight but old regional jet"
Cons: "On time flight"
Pros: "You're kidding!!!"
Cons: "Seating 3 across. the passenger on the isle seat got served and the other passenger and myself were ignored. NO SERVICE!"
Cons: "Hour late and no wifi!"
Pros: "surprisingly spacious seats. plane felt brand new. on screen entertainment was great, and relieved to have charging inputs for my device in the seat."
Pros: "Good flight as always with Delta. Sat in economy comfort, so of course the seats was comfortable. Flight Attendants were great."
Pros: "Food was so good. Crew was also very nice."
Pros: "Check in person was very helpful in rerouting our flight."
Cons: "Our flight was delayed 3-1/2 hours. The gate crew booked us in another flight but did not issue a ticket, so after transferring to another terminal, we were sent back to the Delta terminal to be issued a ticket to a third airline since we already missed the second flight. Then, they lost our luggage"
Pros: "Good crew"
Cons: "The WiFi didn’t work well"
Pros: "Very good complimentary lunch - veggie wrap. I was surprised by the quality. Also I like the plane design - there are places to stand while waiting for the rest room, so you are out of the aisle. WiFi worked."
Cons: "Wish they didn’t charge extra for seat assignment."
Cons: "Seats did NOT recline, which seems to be a pretty poor planning for a red eye flight."
Cons: "The boarding process at LAX was awful. I’m sure the horrible shuttle wait and transfer from terminal to terminal is the airport’s fault, but the airline did not do anywhere near enough to inform passengers of what was in store. It was confusing and annoying."
Pros: "Great service from boarding to landing"
Pros: "Amazing crew and clean cabin."
Cons: "I checked two bags and paid for them. The flight was full. I dutifully got in line for zone two. Next thing you know, at least 25 people got to board early and have free bag check. Really? I should get $35 dollar refund."
Pros: "When I finally got off the plane"
Cons: "Everything. No instructions, no pens or pencils, ignorant staff. Got to Cancun and waited 2 hours with no directions to just go they immagration. The forms were in Spanish and the staff could not translate. I’ll never fly Delta again."
Pros: "Good snacks. Nice crew. Nice seats."
Cons: "Pay WiFi? JetBlue does it for free.."
Cons: "This was my worst EVER airline experience. It was delayed 27 hours and the snow was not the only problem. When we finally got on board a plane we sat on the runway for over two hours - then they FORGOT to load the luggage!!!"
Pros: "Boarded and left JFK on time and arrived 15 minutes early to Seattle. Love DELTA."
Pros: "Everything"
Cons: "My friend and I was switched to an even worse seating when boarding. Very uncomfortable especially for my friend since he had crutches."
Pros: "Surprised to see the hostess serving food on a domestic flight. Were courteous when we were sitting on the tarmac for 3 hrs waiting for clearance."
Cons: "Folks at the boarding counter were rude. Had one bag as a carry on, and was forced to check it in. Whereas saw other folks stow their two personal items in the overhead cabin."
Pros: "Flight attendants were great!"
Cons: "Flight was super late, I’m hearing impaired and there’s no apparent closed captioning option for anything I was trying to watch"
Pros: "Attentive, respectful and nice crew, swift take off and landing and awesome views"
Cons: "Nothing. Everything went well"
Cons: "It didn’t take off on time"
Pros: "Smooth flight in time. Didn't realize would have to go thru another TSA security check point. Otherwise smooth flight, great communication from the captain."
Cons: "Cramped seats and the food wasn't that great. Plus final meal was served late which lead to quick eating and feeling rushed."
Pros: "I liked the cabin interior and the inflight entertainment system."
Cons: "The complimentary fruit slices and cheese gave me servere food poisoning (strong symptoms for 36h+). The flight change (added fuel stop an hour before takeoff) showed in the app as canceled flight and disabled the boarding pass. And the several times at the gate verbally advertised on board WiFi didn’t work at all. Not a good expierence."
Pros: "Crew was friendly and helpful"
Cons: "Our flight was delayed by almost 2 hours and caused me to miss my connecting flight. Next available flight was a 6 hour layover that I was not expecting."
Pros: "I got off the flight at out side,but i forgot to carried my small bag .and then the Crew returned me the bag very soon.they were very kind,thank you very much."

Pros: "Ease of it all!"

Pros: "Availability of flight. Quick flight, on time"
Cons: "Lay over"
Cons: "Most everything was excellent, however my 2 year old daughter's in seat entertainment screen wasn't working. It was a full flight and there was no option to change seats. I brought it to the flight attendants attention however she wasn't able to reset it. A 7-hour flight from NY to Zurich travelling with small children without the movies was not as pleasant as it could have been."
Pros: "Nothing"
Cons: "First day our flight got canceled 1 hour before leaving the airport. No good explanation given. Planes were landing and departing from Columbus just our flight got cancelled which made no sense. Over the phone no one was really helpful. Very bad experience with Delta"
Pros: "At least the plane didn't return to the gate and we departed 7 hours late."
Cons: "All the delays and gate changes with no explanations and only informed via text message. The weather wasn't even that bad. Missed the connecting flight to Bucharest and part of vacation time."
Pros: "Delta Comfort seats"
Cons: "Delta employee who drive shuttle to connection stopped to drop off a passenger and proceed to chat w other workers thereby getting me to my gate late and missing my connection and getting me to Florida almost 3 hours later than planned. Agents at desk in JFK were rude. There was another Delta employee also on the shuttle who was the only one who seemed to show concern. He alerted the driver, called the boarding gate and led me to it."
Pros: "Nice crew, normal seats, TV etc. They were very apologetic about the delays. They gave multiple updates and came around with water/snacks"
Cons: "The plane was delayed to wait for passengers from another flight. We waited for almost two hours. After that there was multiple technical difficulties- loading the bags, closing the door, refueling...the list goes on. We ended up taking off almost four hours late."
Pros: "Good entertainment with games for kids, movies etc."
Cons: "No meals (5+ of flying), need to buy earphones, no place for hand lauggudge"

Cons: "The AA crew and employees at DFW were rude, unhelpful, uncaring, and showed extreme disrespect to my disabled Veteran husband. We will NEVER visit DFW again. We were treated with disrespect and rudeness. My new name for this airline is UNAMERICAN AIRLINES."
Cons: "Bigger seats"
Cons: "The flight comfort was very bad. The plane was extremely warm and people we beginning to feel bad. Several mentioned it and asked multiple times to have the the cabin air conditioning turned down"
Pros: "Nothing. I missed this flight because of a delay of my flight on Friday."
Cons: "Seat was very hard and uncomfortable"
Pros: "Nothing"
Cons: "Everything"
Pros: "The steward was super friendly."
Cons: "I would blame this on myself but had a second incident with CheapoAir. The date was wrong and neither cheapoAir NOR AA would help me to fix it without extravagant fees. Ended up eating the ticket."
Cons: "Delayed for an hour"
Pros: "The leg room"
Cons: "No toilet paper or Kleenex on the 2nd flight with American"
Cons: "Weather related, mostly, so not AA’s fault"
Pros: "service was consistent"
Cons: "Plane was unusually hot"
Pros: "Prompt on time service."
Cons: "N/A"
Pros: "It was incident free."
Cons: "I can't comment on food. I didn't get any."
Pros: "Great flight"
Cons: "everyone was friendly"
Pros: "Took me from point a to b. Some entertainment options, nothing spectacular."
Cons: "Toilets were dirty."
Cons: "Why can't the crews in in LGA communicate with the passengers during the boarding process like at other airports so that it won't be a mad mob press to get on the plane. The gate agent using the PA didn't or couldn't enunciate, and folks just 15 feet away were asking what she said."
Pros: "Was on time."
Cons: "Not eventful."
Pros: "Smooth ride, checked in online, electronic boarding pass, going through security - a breeze. Was little apprehensive because I heard bad things about AA - my 1st experience was good."
Cons: "American Airlines has to be the worst airline I’ve ever traveled with. They canceled both of my flights and scheduled me for flights the next day each time. Customer service pretty poor. I opted to take a train instead. They didn’t reimburse me either. Awful"
Pros: "Smooth flight, pilots were friendly. It was a nice flight"
Pros: "Perfect quiet comfy flight"
Pros: "Early for arrival!! Love that!"
Cons: "New cheap fare is honestly offensive trash."

Cons: "Runway time in New York"
Pros: "Food was good"
Cons: "No entertainment on the flight"
Cons: "The plane supposedly was running out of fuel, which I've never heard of such thing. So we had to go down 20mns before reaching Charlotte to a nearby airport to get fueled up and then went back in the air. The whole ordeal made me miss my connection flight to Barcelona! And I wasn't able to get on a flight until the next day. To make matters worse I had to flight back to New York to catch the flight to Barcelona! Unbelievable. I was beyond disappointed. I chose American Airlines for a reason, a good one at that. Yet this happened."
Pros: "Arrived early. Smooth flight."
Pros: "Speedy boarding"
Cons: "Unmotivated crew, uncomfortable seats."
Cons: "Flight was late. More than doubled my layover time"
Pros: "The crew's response was better than expected."
Cons: "Snacks were a bit too expensive."
Cons: "Entertainment was boring"
Pros: "It was exactly what I was looking for. Comfortable, easy and faster to board. I loved to be able to use the ticket on my phone as boarding pass, that made shorter the whole process."
Pros: "Nothing"
Cons: "First of all, we got on plane on time but had to wait 1h and 15 min to take off!!!ok that's the airport!!!They didn't even welcome us in plane.No food at all!Coke in plastic cup?Just this?No smile, not a blanket even air condition so strong!!!The manager of American Airlines should try to fly with Greek companies!And I don't mean with Olympic airways in Onassis time(with Coco Chanel suits the hall crew) but I mean now, in poor Greece's Aegean air which again and again wins the price of best airliner in Europe..Service, crew, foooood!!!Polite people..Blankets!!! I feel sorry for American Airlines..Ok we landed safe..Thank God, that's something..."
Cons: "Apparently due to staffing issue I sat in a plane for 2 hours before it took off causing me and my partner to miss our connection."
Cons: "Good service ! Window seat!"
Pros: "I got home"
Cons: "No tvs"
Cons: "They cancelled the flight and put me to fly the next day"
Pros: "Not enough luggage space for regular number of passengers on board"
Cons: "Charlotte to Seattle flight: The food served in first class smelled awful. Seated in premium seating just behind first class was unfortunate due to the atrocious odor that lasted for 3+hours. There was no option for food service for the rest of the plane. Which was unfortunate as I was very hungry. Due to inconsistent notification that the plane was delayed / on-time (kept switching the notification) we opted to not get dinner in the airport..... To which the plane was was an hour late yet we were told to check in every ten minutes to see if we were boarding. There were no blankets. The plane was incredibly cold. The suggestion I received from the flight staff was to turn off the vent above my head (which I had already done.) I had brought a jacket and was wearing pants. On a 5.5 hour flight, the crew served beverages 45 minutes into the flight (per usual) and handed out a pretzel pack. They didn't come back through with water or beverages again. On other airlines, they promote water at least once an hour to keep swelling and dehydration down. Since I am a pretty frequent flier, I bring my own water. Still, coffee would have been nice. Suggestions: increase beverage service to at least twice / 5.5 hour flight and provide blankets upon request. Food choices and entertainment would also be good. Don't cook stinky dinners in first class and allow it to pollute the rest of the plane."
Pros: "Nothing"
Cons: "Plane is small, overpacked, delayed. I lost my shuttle to the Keys and had to stay overnight in Miami."
Pros: "It was on time."
Cons: "The issues steming from poor service, I waited for agent at gate for 5min prior to boarding. I wasnt able to get a seat assignment online or kiosk, was told to go to gate for seat. After agent assigned me a seat in the last row, after I asked for something closer to the front of plane. I was told that I had to check-in my carry on bag because they were expecting a full flight. I said that I had an 19" bag that was small enough to be put in overhead compartment. I was then advised that if I wanted to get on the flight I had to check my bag. I then spoke to a supervisor who said the only way to carry on my bag was to pay for an expensive seat or be in group 2. The agent had put us in group 3. I said that none of the reasons given for not being able to carry my bag on tje flight is not stated anywhere on website or when purchasing a ticket. I had no choice but to give up my carry on bag. Boarded group 3 and upon getting on plane I noticed that the overhead compartments were half full. As I arrived at seat 30 A, all the compartments were empty. I went to the front of plane to speak to an agent on ramp and other passengers were bringing on their carry on bags. I spoke with the supervisor who said I couldn't get on flight unless I checked my carry on bag. All he could say is that he was sorry for the inconvenience. I asked why he was helping other passengers to bring their luggage on board but I was refused. Then a flight attendant said that I was being disruptive and was going to get thrown out of flight. There is no explanation why my girlfriend and I weren't allowed to bring our carry on bags except being discriminated."
Cons: "Broken seat and terrible gogo video experience with an attendant crew that was dysfunctional together for food/beverage service. I prefer to not fly AA."
Pros: "The flight was fine - once I was on it."
Cons: "Thanks to weather (what weather?), the Friday 8 flight was canceled. My only chance to get to Cincinnati "on time" was to take a 6am two-part flight from Newark via Charlotte, arriving in Cincinnati at 1pm. All around the American Airlines section you could hear people say that flights had been canceled like this all week. I did not have time in Cincinnati to do half the things I wanted to do, and I had so little sleep on Friday night that I had to spend too much of my first Cincinnati night in bed trying to catch up with lost sleep, Thanks, American! This was to have been the head-clearing out-of-town break I sorely needed after a period of over-intense work."
Pros: "Pilot on return flight got us to our destination 30 minutes early (unfortunately there wasn't a gate for us to pull into so we waited 30 minutes on the Tarmac)."
Cons: "Departing flight was delayed over eleven hours because a flight attendant was ill. They actually had to fly in a flight attendant all the way from Texas to cover this Seattle to JFK flight! So our flight departed a whole day later and we missed a day of our vacation (we arrived at 7pm instead of 7am). I understand things happen but this was not weather related or a mechanical issue. This is simply poor personnel management. They should have a back-up plan if an employee falls ill. One that doesn't involve flying in an employee from another region of the country, let alone another state. The inefficiency continued on the return flight when it took a whole hour for the luggage to come out! Will avoid flying American again at any cost."
