As an Elevance employee, don't we get priority boarding? Also, I boarded zone 5 and could not get normal carry on in luggage space. There were many Delta employees on the flight and their bags, which were large and could only fit two bags per compartment, got preference over customers so I had to check my bag.

Everything went smoothly, WiFi connection was strong. Time to upgrade the regional planes, we are all on top of each other. No room to comfortably do anything.

The bathroom is disgustingly dirty. It looks like the crew members didn’t clean it on a regular basis. Also, who made the bathroom so small?. I am not a big girl but I still feel very cramped inside. Def unpleasant experience to use the bathroom.

After flying with Qatar Airways and Kenya Airlines. Delta leaves a lot to be desired

Very nice the whole crew was amazing and very professional. I had an offer for a drink it was handled great and amazing crew and nice flight.

The number of interim flight delays has been higher than I can remember in my history of travel making any connection a mystery as to whether you will actually make it.

Easiest airport experience ever in my life at MSP with Delta check-in and flight attendant gave us a bottle of champagne in celebration of our 10-year wedding anniversary, so overall amazing!

Great. Seamless. Check in agent at kiosk international was amazing and extremely helpful.

Of course, the Gate change was last minute and they were boarding g when we finally got to the change of terminal as well.

Delta planes have the WORST seat comfort of any plane in history. It's the opposite of ergonomic, in every sense. They also recline minimally, are covered in a vinyl and have no feet rests. Then the disembarking process is chaotic and time consuming (because of the way they load the plane and deal with luggage). Overall, somewhat frustrating but we arrived safely :)

It is completely insane to me that first class does not include WiFi. Also does not include lounge access. Port for phone charging did not work. The crew was absolutely lovely, and the food was excellent.

I appreciate how quickly and kindly the people at the gate at DCA accommodated several of us who wanted to switch from the 6pm flight to the 5pm flight at the last minute. The flight crew was helpful to us too (dealing with luggage).

Very uncomfortable and cramped seats. Everything else was okay, the crew members were nice but nothing was exceptional.

Seats needs to be wirer and food is very poor

It was good overall except from Omaha to Denver when flight a was a repeatedly delayed apparently due to some issue at Denver. Communications could have been handled better. I had to board then deboard with luggage and board again

My experience on this United Airlines flight was highly uncomfortable, primarily due to two issues: Cabin Temperature: The temperature on the Boeing 737 MAX 8 was unacceptably high, feeling consistently around 80 degrees throughout the flight. This made sleeping impossible and significantly detracted from the experience. Seating Arrangement: Being stuck in a middle seat for a six-and-a-half-hour overnight flight compounded the discomfort. Moving forward, I will always purchase a seat assignment to avoid this situation.

There were issues with the first segment but what really bothered me overall is that you rebooked me and put me in a seat away from my wife and then put her in another booking or boarding group. I don't like having to monitor every little thing you guys do in order to get what I paid for in the first place.

The staff was phenomenal. I can’t think of anything that could be better. Will be flying with UA again

I had very little time to change planes originally in Denver after my flight from Omaha. I had an hour and a half layover in Denver originally and my flight leaving Omaha was delayed an hour because they had to change a tire, which I can understand. When I reached Denver my other flight was late, fortunately, but I still had only 10 minutes to run about a mile through the airport to get to my flight. Again, fortunately, I am a healthy 71-year-old and was able to accomplish this feat. However, the stress was more than necessary to bear.

Flight was comfortable- just had to endure a 1 hr delay because of some maintenance issue. Happy that American Airlines does these final checks but just wish they would conduct this maintenance before the flights.

All good. Flight crew was super friendly at the end of a long day

All good. Easy check in and boarding. Lovely flight crew

Friendly crew and pilot. And thank you to the pilot for his smooth landing technique where the wheels don't hit the ground hard - that should be table stakes but doesn't seem to be the case nowadays.

Four hour delay due to late plane arrival- second year in a row on MCO - DCA route. Pitiful service reliability from American. Will avoid in future

Flight was fine, food could have improved (Chicken Enchiladas) and so could the entertainment options on the seat rest (there was none).

I have generally had positive experiences with American Airlines (outside a handful of delayed flights), which is why I wanted to share this feedback constructively. On my recent flight, my travel experience was extremely uncomfortable because my seat mate significantly encroached into my assigned seat space for the duration of the flight. As a result, I was forced to sit partially sideways, with much of my shoulder and upper body extending into the aisle. Unfortunately, my back still hurts from maintaining that awkward position.I recognize that this is a sensitive and challenging issue for airlines and cabin crews to address. Everyone deserves to travel with dignity and respect, and I understand that individual circumstances can vary. However, fairness also requires that all passengers have reasonable access to the seat space they have paid for. When one passenger's use of space substantially impacts another passenger's ability to sit safely and comfortably, there should be a practical solution available.I appreciate the complexities involved, but I hope American Airlines will continue exploring ways to ensure that all passengers can travel comfortably and equitably. This experience detracted significantly from what should have been a routine flight.

I will never but. through kayak again. and American Airlines. I will never fly again on. They're both thieves.

Waiting for gate in RDU for more than 20mins is crazy.

A much better flight than our previous. The flight attendant took care of us and regularly checked in to see if we needed anything. Brought us drinks prior to the departure and then a couple more times. Totally makes the difference in how you travel when the crew is checking on their passengers. Great job on this leg of our trip.
