The flight was comfortable with the usual slight turbulence. Macadamia Nuts would be great snacks to purchase in flight.

The flight was comfortable with the usual slight turbulence. Macadamia Nuts would be great snacks to purchase in flight.

This is one of the worst trips that I have ever had. Ending up with an overnight delay. I’m not happy with the fact that they did not provide and set up the arrangement needed for lodging that we had to do it on our own. I also feel there should’ve been Compensation for food.

Had to approach landing twice which caused concern but probably due to weather

This was my first time flying your airline and it was okay. The people were nice but I am not used to all the add ons and no movies or even water. But I knew it was going to be that way. I think I prefer paying for the extras to be more comfortable.

Plane did no snacks and had no wifi or entertainment although the flight was 4 hours long.

My original booking was a nonstop flight. It got changed to a flight with a 6vhour layover that became a 7+ hour lay over. I'll never fly this airline again after this roundtrip is over.

I was surprised at how wonderful it was. The aircraft was clean. The crew was warm and welcoming and as a result the passengers were friendly. One warning the only free thing was water. I kind of liked picking wet hat I was willing to pay for and what I was willing to skip.

The flight wasn’t big on frills, which is fine with me. I flew into Islip MacArthur Airport, which saved me from having to go through LaGuardia to visit friends on Long Island. It was inexpensive and super convenient!

Great experience! This was my first time flying with them and I could not have been happier.

Airplane was newer and very clean, lots of space. Crew was great. There was no food and entertainment but that was expected so not an issue.

I’ve always loved Southwest. No issues at all. I was flying standby and the gate agent was extremely friendly and helpful. Boarding was smooth and I was able to get a window seat in the emergency exit row. Crew was fantastic! They were very professional and accommodating. We had to divert from our destination due to weather but the flight crew kept everyone at ease and informed us of all pertinent information. Excellent flight

The price of the tickets isn't matching the flight experience. No matter how long the flight is, you're only getting pretzels. The flight attendants looked unkept and over it.

WiFi on the flight was not working. Thus, entertainment options were limited.

Flight was awfully bumpy and landing was a bit jolting. I was in the restroom when snacks and drinks were served and was not asked if i wanted any. I had to ask for water finally.

Crew was great flight was great baggage claim was a failure. It took over 1 hour for bags to arrive. Poor communication poor effort when I spoke to the supervisor about the delay

Planes are aged. The wifi is unreliable and on many fights, no-existent. The flight attendants were very good.

I had a wonderful flight, but the only thing that annoyed me was how crowded TSA was. I still believe airports and all planes work together to bunch everyone together to drive up cost.

Easy to book and to get check in and get on and off.

Exceptional crew! Friendly and professional. Pleasant attitude and treated everyone with respect.

Everything worked well. Crew was as entertaining as is possible on a plane flight. Southwest still has good legroom:

It was one of my worst flight ever. First they were changing the gate for at least 4 times, changing from gate D7 to D12 to D44. Considering the size of the Miami Airport, we are talking about long distance and the train at the airport was not working. Then the flight was delayed around one hour. Then finally we boarded into the plane and when everybody was seated, there was an announcement that there is an issue with one of the tire of the plane, so we all had to get out of the plane with our belongings, to replace the tire. So we had around 2.5-hour delay

I was late from Jacksonville, FL but the limited interaction I had with the Philly crew was great.

The delays and cancellations kept me stuck in Miami for an additional 24 hours, and the whole thing seemed extremely disorganized

Pitch was very small. Knees were on the seat back in front of me.

The flight to Tokyo AA61 took off about two hours late, but then had to turn back. By that time the crew had to be replaced. Then they kept promising to take off in an hour, then in 3, then switch to the next day.

Crew professional. Easy bag drop off. On time. Good entertainment.

Flight was late and missed connecting flight. They could have better accommodated, but instead did an overnight and had to arrive the next afternoon.

The boarding crew was incredibly helpful getting me on an earlier flight

They have lost any customer service care and support. Terrible airline now and been for awhile.

The flight was delayed leaving Miami. When we arrived in Charlotte, we were unable to park at our scheduled gate. We had to wait another 30-45 minutes before we could park at a different gate. All in all, we were delayed by almost two hours arriving in Charlotte.

The flight was canceled and was bounced around time wise with my elderly parents. That being said the gentleman in custody service was amazingly helpful

Easy boarding and good flight. Need to work on the beverage and snack situation

While on the flight we had a delay and had to sit on the plane while maintenance fixed it. It’s ended up taking an hour and a half longer to leave than expected. I had an unruly passenger sitting behind me that vaped during the flight and was rude and loud for the majority of the flight.

Not great. Overpriced and charge you for everything. All but breathing was an extra charge. Never again! Oh if you didn’t check a carry on, you couldn’t use the overhead bins. Crew said those spaces were not available. Personal items MUST go on floor. Yet, there was only 50% capacity at best! So ridiculous.

It was fine, Can’t blame you about airport issues.

The flight was fine however what started as a reasonable priced ticket could have become an overpriced ticket with additional charge for carry on as well as checked bag $79 per bag per person each way. Additional charge for choosing one’s seat, additional charge for beverage and snack, we were on what was described as a new plane yet there were no audio/visual on the jet. A bare bones service but not at a bare bones price. Will think twice before flying Spirit again. 😕

I love Spirit. New aircraft, great cabin service, the airfares are low cost which helps me visit my hospitalized daughter anytime I can without paying a fortune.

I paid for streaming wifi and the connection was poor.

Very efficient process and boarding, seats felt standard. Flight conditions from take off to landing had been very smooth. Alcohol on the menu however was not available… Will fly Spirit in the future for the price, you can’t really complain if you fly light.

My flight was good from my wheelchair assist to the plan & my exit.

Although an hour and a half early was told by staff at check in they had overbooked and could not check us in for the flight.

The crew was delayed because they came on another flight that was delayed due to weather 10pm flight left at 1.30 am The airline made no effort to align alternate crew

Worst airline experience. They were rude and kept changing our seats and/or giving our seats away so our family didn’t get to sit with each other. Almost everyone we dealt with at both airports with this airline was rude. The app kept giving us wrong information making things take longer. Dealing with them before TSA can take close to an hour…longer than I’ve ever had to deal with before. Never using this airline again.

Seats are uncomfortable but price is good. Guess I can put up with misery for four hours.

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

They switched my flight to Spirit, Never using Kayak again,

The flight itself was ok and the pilot was very communicative. However, our flight was delayed for almost 3 hours, the gate was changed 3 times and there was no communication as we were waiting. The flight staff was overall a little crabby...I understand as they probably had a long day but we all did.

Asked for a seat change to be w my wife at the gate they were great in sorting it out to make it happen

They cancelled the flight and did nothing. I should be compensated for my uber rides to and from airport. Not a good service by frontier or kayak.

The worst service , the agents from the counter are really bad . Poor customer service . They didnt help me to get in the flight . I was on line when they close the flight without telling and I couldn’t board the plane . I will like to get my money back ey back because it was their fault. Really bad management , bad manners, bad additud
