Service and the plane itself were terrific, but the extensive delays both before we left and after were a real pain.

Service and the plane itself were terrific, but the extensive delays both before we left and after were a real pain.

It was good and there is nothing to complain about .

The seats were narrower compare to other airlines traveling to Asia, which makes them uncomfortable after 6 hours The plane was worn, my tray table wasn’t level, You had to pay for WiFi and no Bluetooth option to use your own headphones. The crew was excellent in servicing the food and drinks. However I felt they needed some extra hands to serve the two sections of economy at the same time. They run out of one of the food option as they got to the rear section of the plane. Having travel on other Asian airlines during this trip; American Airlines can learn a bit from them, but I wonder if their service is geared towards a clientele that has become accustomed to not expect to much from an airline.

The crew was great, food was good. My concern is about the plane itself. It wasn't super clean, and during the landing process (after attendants had to take their seats) the air conditioning vent above my daughter's head started leaking a lot of water. It leaked for about 30 minutes, until we landed. I let the attendant know about the leak as we were getting off the plane, and she was very kind about saying she'd look into it. Given concerns about hygiene on planes, plus the fact that my daughter had to hold the blanket over her for 30 minutes to avoid getting soaked, that was not a great situation.

There was a problem with the maintenance so missed the flight from las vegas to L.A and then L.A to Narita with japan airlines. They took care of the problem by rebooked with cathay pacific airways.

I paid for premium and it’s wasn’t what I was told I would be getting. Food wasn’t good. Should be able to pick and not be served items you dislike. Very little leg room.

I am trying to select a seat during booking but it respond that set assigment will be given during check in, and the seat assignment they give is in the middle seat and 2 row from the rest rooms, i am the person who pee a lot in this case I disturb so much the person beside me ,this trip is from Haneda to Texas, the trip from Texas to Cvg is a much better because its a smaller plane few passenger

Their in0flight movie selection is limited in size and poor in quality.

Japan airlines is a great airline. One of my favorites. The only issue I had was that I only pescatarian or I can eat vegetables, pasta, etc and both choices of meals were chicken or red meat. Most of other airlines have meat or pasta. Also usually I get an alert to order a meal prior to fly and this time I did not get one. Other than that everything was wonderful.

Boarding and crew service were excellent. Food was mediocre, not as good as our last trip four years ago.

Although the crew was eventually very good, they complained loudly about EVERYTHING before the takeoff. Did not set the stage for a good trip in business class. The western meal choices were pretty mediocre as were the wine choices. We took an ANA flight to Tokyo and they were outstanding!

As usual the flight from AUS in Austin to SFO was late because they didn’t have adequate staffing to board the plane on time creating a 1 hour delay, which resulted in me missing my flight to Osaka due to a missed connection. When I got to the gate 10 minutes late after landing exactly the time the connecting flight was taking off, I saw my flight to Osaka sitting at the gate and that gates had closed. I attempted to contact United Via chat on the United App and was given the runaround and passed between 2 separate “agents” who after saying they could rebook me, told me I needed to go to ANA even though they’re partners and all of my ticketing was through United. After going to ANA’s gate at SFO to try and get help I was told I would need to leave and go to United’s ticket counter in order to get help. The ANA agents said that it was United’s issue. An hour after running to try to make my flight I got to the United counter. I showed the agent my itinerary and she helped as much as she could. I was booked on a flight that would occur 13 hours after my original flight to Osaka and given $45 in vouchers which doesn’t cover much at SFO. I had also spent 30000 miles with United to get an upgrade with more legroom. And that was not refunded to this point. Ultimately I lost 1 whole day of vacation in with my wife and kids and, the 30000 airline miles and I’m out the money and time I spent. In these situations United and their partners should go out of their way to communicate and accommodate but I was left to my own devices to find the right resources. The only option was to fly to Seoul 12 hours and take a connecting flight to Osaka: I am a United Skyniles member and would not recommend booking a flight with them unless you thoroughly understand the routes as it is likely you will be left to your own devices to resolve the situation.

I liked the flight over all. Towards the middle of the flight. There was a flight attendant who felt like they were rushing to had out vegetarian wraps and said they were “sandwiches”. She also handed out hand we wanted the water but she was walked so fast we didn’t get any. We sat in the seat 45 E & D. And towards the last 30 minutes of the flight there was an announcement saying the crew would collect trash. No one ever came around. So held on to the trash until we landed and left in the seats.!

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.

As always, there is that one or two flight attendants that could be better.

I loved everything about my experience!!! The staff were absolutely incredible. I can not wait to fly again with them.

ANA split my family of 4 by seating us each separately which didn't seem to make much sense. Both ways we were not seated together and the glitch int he online check in system meant we could not change our seats or get boarding passes without seeing a person at the airport counnter. The staff however offered good service in the air.

The seats were broken for several of us on this flight not to mention dirty. Quite unacceptable for the price point and expectation level. The meat was so hard it could hardly be cut so terribly unappealing. The united lungs in SFO was dirty and the bathroom conditions were down right disgusting. Nothing about this experience makes me want to book with United again. Our experiences with business class on Lufthansa and British Airways far out perform United in comparison. Truly disappointing!

They did not get back tickets in time about flight varification so i had to purchase another one way ticket to get home soxas rocnot Risk being unable to return home.

Food looked great but did not taste all that good.

Smooth sailing trip, pilots are good. Less amount of food offered but the quality is okey.

Humm, I should have known that the seat I peaked on my flight from Inchon to Manila was designed for a toddler or very small person.

The staff hold my luggage to steel and exchange my stub, i was very disappointed.

Felt like the oldest plane in Asiana Fleet. Screen was 5-6in only and no charging at all. Movie selection wasn't great.

Food could be better it was okay. Entertainment seems dated it was something but in this day and age could be a lot better.

I am thankful that I was able to fly using Asiana

Better screens, it would have been nice to have more comfortable seats.

2nd major delay due to maintenance issues. 1st delay missed my connecting flight.

It was great, but my bag was not loaded onto the connecting flight. I'm currently getting it resolved. If this isn't a problem, everything else was excellent.

Very clean ,flight attendants very professional,nice , Boarding was very easy
