I thought I bought the ticket directly through Kayak not a 3rd party
It was really fast to Tokyo. Much faster than the budget carriers. However a lot less space than international flights.
Couple of hours delayed, we had to re-booked our Shinkansen reservation twice. United Aiines need to improve their time!
Crew was fantastic. Seats were not completely lay flat but still comfortable to watch a show. International food was lobster which was very big but a little tough. The scallop appetizer was delicious. Loved the individual air conditioning vent at each seat. Flight overall was very smooth and very good.
Staff was friendly but couldn't find way to track them down during flight. Food tried to be gourmet but was just too unusual. Business class seats were hard. Even sitting on the pillow, was still painful. Have to give them credit for on-time flights and decent gate area.
Overall good except the checkin process at Bangkok airport. Can ANA explain why the line for business class is longer than that for economy? I, BC passenger, had to move from BC line to economy line to get faster service.
Matsuyama to Tokyo is basically a puddle jumper flight, so it was as good as one should expect. No meal, no entertainment, and none expected.
The staff is amazing, I cannot stress that enough! The food is really good and snacks at stations to take for yourselves. Economy seating is fine, not the most comfortable, but our friends in Premium Economy said they were very comfortable! Decent entertainment options, but being built in, you have to use their cheap headsets unless you have your own plug in ones. I only have Bluetooth earbuds.
Seats were extremely cramped even for economy. Food was atrocious. Crew was fine but no follow up, additional drinks offered etc. For a 14 hour flight I expected more.
The bed / seat was very hard , not at all comfortable for an 11 hr flight .. food was strange , never have I eaten roast chicken and mash potatoes for breakfast!! Very odd
Only beverages were offered to first class and I thought the flight attendant could have also served the Delta Comfort as well instead of sitting down and staring at her phone and walking past all of us to the back of the plane to charge her phone more. There was a complete lack of turbulence and was safe enough for flights attendant to walk around in the front of the plane, collect trash and serve a few people water and turn off the seat belt light. Also didn’t enforce people putting their seats into the upright position and allowed two passengers to remain reclined during landing. They seemed out to lunch completely. Usually my experience on Delta is much better.
Long story short, it was one of the better flight experiences I've had in some time when compared with other airlines.
Flight was great! This flight from Atlanta was even better than when I paid for Comfort from SNA to Atlanta.
Connection flights should be spaced out farther because too close I missed my connection.
Definitely a southern flavor. Cordiality was evident even though no drinks or snacks were served.
On time! There were plenty of airport employees who were able to keep us moving in the right direction. The crew on the plane were professional.
Left /arrived on time. Decent seat space. Like the wifi/plugs and entertainment. Windows and tray table were kinda gross. Attendants didn't start snack service til 40mins before landing. Two rows before us, captain came on to say there's turbulence and recalled staff to seats. So, no drink/snack. Later, attendants didn't stop to see if we had trash nor even look our way. Felt invisible! Almost all pilot announcements were not only unintelligible, but so quiet. We had no idea what she said.
Average seat comfort, a drink and chips were provided, early boarding because we checked a carryon at the gate was nice. Ticket pricing shenanigans, including fees to pick a seat, check a bag, and get food onboard - evidence the industry is reinvigorating last century’s strategies- destroys the experience before one ever arrives at the airport. It’s difficult to recognize any value or sustain loyalty in the end-to-end process making air travel more drudgery than pleasure.
Gate agent was unhelpful for handicapped boarding. Flight attendant seemed untrained.
No service flight that took 5 hrs and a stop at an unscheduled airport. Crew and pilots did their jobs
I paid for a confirmed upgraded aisle seat and was moved to a center seat in the back of the plane at the last minute.
Smooth travel. Immediate update prior flight delay so I can arrange myself properly without too rush.
Everything was the best it could be. Crew found me with pre- ordered food. Excellent experience!
Improve the food offerings and cabin seating. My wife would prefer to fly another airline, even with a connection for a more comfortable trip. A 737-8 should not be scheduled for a 6 hour segment, which turned into 7.5 hours due to the origin ground delay.
Packed flight, which makes it tough on crew and boarding staff (and the customers of course). But this was great boarding, clear instructions, etc. Traveling on the weekends are always fraught with danger as you have families and less frequent flyers thus more confusion. But this flight went as planned.
Destroyed my suitcase. Tired of talking about it. Cancelling my unite mileage plus account.
Read the fine print. This was my flight home. I booked my flight for the quickest way home. Had a carry-on and a personal item. Same as my outbound flight. Apparently I needed to pre-pay extra for my carry-on. When I checked in, I was told that I had to check it. I said I’ll pay for it, and was told that this wasn’t an option anymore. They said I still had to pay $50 to check my carry-on. I told them I’ll pay whatever to just carry it in as intended. I was not allowed, so eventually I paid $50 to check my carry-on under a plane that was half full, with overhead compartments that were even less full. My white carry-on suitcase was practically destroyed getting from Idaho falls to Denver to Orange County. The low price air fair was a bait and switch. Got me to the gate, made me pay extra, then didn’t even allow me to pay for a carry on. Not to mention that I paid the $8 for WiFi that didn’t work. All to get my suitcase destroyed. I don’t think I’m going to even keep my Untied mileage plus membership and card. Apparently, membership does not have its privileges for this one.
The flight was delayed, they didn’t even have water for the toilets or for drinks
Even through the flight was delayed due to storms near IAH The flight was great! The crew was so hospitable and professional
I flew from Santa Fe to Denver to catch a flight to London and the transfer of my luggage on arrival at Denver to the London flight worked perfectly. The crew on the ground and on board for the London flight were so friendly and efficient.
The flight attendants were extremely sourly and borderline rude. I did not feel appreciated as an AA customer once.
The flight back to Dallas was delayed, which has happened to me several times with American Airlines. There was no announcement, no update sent out, no compensation offered for the inconvenience.
It wa sort of on time; the cab was left with some trash
Our flight from JFK to Madrid was delayed. We had to go from one side of the Madrid airport (Terminal 4s to the far end of terminal 4 - Gate K98) to our gate in less than 30 minutes. Put passport control and security/baggage check and that’s very hard unless you’re Usain Bolt. I called Iberia Airlines and the telephone customer service told me that I was going to have to pay to re-book. Luckily the help desk in the airport (who was dealing with dozens of people from the same JFK-Madrid flight) did not charge us extra to reschedule to a flight 8 hours later. They also gave us a voucher for breakfast and lunch. Glad the actual person at the airport had some actual sense.
As always, most AA flights that we fly are almost ALWAYS delayed and that too multiple times. Very frustrating
Boarding was smooth and seamless and the flight was without incident.
For an long range economy flight I feel more space and more meal options need to be offered for flights over 5 hours
Our flight was repeatedly delayed for maintenance problems: scheduled for 9.30am, eventually delayed to 7pm! Very very inconvenient! AA should have provided a substitute plane much earlier.. On the other hand, Customer Service crew in Charlotte helped us to reach NY (LGA) by late afternoon. Thank you Patricia!! The actual flight was quick and very comfortable. As always a. excellent, professional crew. [no food on a a short hop).
Take-off delayed an hour because of a missing flight officer, so,arrived in Charlotte lates causing many passengers to miss connections. Otherwise a very good flight, safe and comfortable, with an excellent professional crew.
Little time between flight from Dallas to flight to Gainesville. We chose this one, 43 minutes between, because the price for a connection with at least an hour between, was so much higher. Had to ask passengers on the Dallas flight to please allow us to deplane ahead of them. The economy passengers allowed this. We had to walk very fast to the next gate, 35 gates away. Thankfully all in the same terminal. Getting to the small Gainesville plane was a little confusing as you enter an area that is boarding many small planes at the same time. We stood in the wrong line for about 15 seconds before realizing it was not our Gainesville flight. Since I had boarded at this gate in the past, I knew to check the signs carefully so we weren’t lost. The first class seat experience was wonderful. I really enjoyed the upgrade. We were offered an alcohol drink as soon as we sat down. I got something different but it was a great gesture especially since we really had to hurry to make the flight. We had packed expecting we might miss this connection, but made it. Our luggage didn’t miss the flight. American Airlines delivered our bags to our home the next day. That was very convenient!
It was a short flight so, everything went smoothly and we got to where we needed to be safely.
Didnt make it on flight. Flight was delayed. Then had to get rebooked for a flight that was 8 hours later. Guess who had to wait for 8 hours at the airport?
Didn’t make it on the flight. Delayed then had to be rebooked, which in turn had me waiting at the airport for another 8 hours before next flight
No TV on the flight. The charging outlet was not working. No food, even a sandwich. The served orange was poor quality.
Selected seats 5 months prior to date. Had email confirmation and seats were not honoured. Family did not sit together
Loved and was pleasantly surprised by the food!! Request Lufthansa to help transiting passengers at Munich (confusion whether to go thru passport control or not).
The flight was comfortable and the staff were helpful and friendly. However, we did not know we were flying PAL until we arrived in Canada, so it was a bit disconcerting. In addition, which port we were leaving from was confusing.
The Air Canada AC1 flight from Toronto to Tokyo on May 16 was great overall. Service, crew, food and entertainment were all excellent and everything ran smoothly. We had emergency exit seats so legroom was amazing, but the seats themselves weren’t very comfortable and the plane feels like it could use an upgrade for a long-haul flight. Aside from that, everything else was perfect.
They did not let us board because one member needed a transit visa, which was not evident at the time of ticket purchase.
I was charge a baggage checking fee $68!! I volunteered to check my duffle bag which usually goes under my seat!
