I don’t know why it’s called a discount airline when you pay a lot for the flight and the extras.
Transavia has started an aggressive program to charge for cabin baggage. Particularly at Schiphol the checkin staff behave like money hungry nazis to charge you 43 euros for a laptop bag as carryon. They didn’t realize I can speak Dutch and I could hear them cheering about the incentives they get for charging extra fees. To make things even more ridiculous, you can’t even store the bag in the overhead compartment because it is so full. It’s such a turnoff and makes traveling on this terrible discount airline even more miserable. To add there are no charging points or inflight entertainment on the plane. The flight crew are polite and courteous.
Transavia charged us extra for a bag we had already paid for. The lady at the boarding counter literal answer was "that is not our problem". They make their measurement requirements non standard to suck money out of you in these ways.
My experience is very bad. The flight was canceled 2 hours before departure. I lost my hotel reservation and can't get it back.
Boarding was slow and cabin crew was even slowing down the process.
The flight was delayed one hour. Soon after, I got an email saying that the flight was moved for the next day at midnight, changing my entire plans at the destination. I went to the gate to see what was going on and they were actually boarding and in their last call! It was very confusing and stressful because I nearly miss the flight for the miscommunication.
Schiphol airport needs to get their stuff together. I had to wait one hour at the passport control for EU national ID members, not the international one that they were waiting for 4 hours, and the baggage claim had an other hour on top of delays. That is insane, trying to exit the airport, at this point just let me get my own bag from the luggage compartment.
Booked priority boarding but all passengers boarded at the same.
Not Transavia item, but baggie claim took more than 30 min
Flight delayed. Information was sent via SMS which was helpfull, but also misleading: First message indicated only a change of type of airplane. The second about a delay. No update on revised delay time later. No good follow-up on boarding time etc afterwards,
Dislike standing for 30 minutes waiting to board. Coffee disgusting, hot sandwich almost inedible. Staff cheerful. Flight early.
Flight got delayed and they didn’t keep us informed all the time.
Good but both flights were delayed by nearly one hour making boarding tedious. We had to wait with no information
I couldn’t understand the aircraft tannoy announcements I was in seat 20C - nobody in our row could either. Speakers a bit too quiet plus messages read out too fast. Otherwise excellent flight. (Flight delayed by 50 mins)
Great flight very short… no food drink or tv but too quick to matter… I would recommend.
Terrible experince. The flight was delayed for 4 hours and we had to sit in the plane for 30 minutes without AC. At least they shouod have given us complimentary bottles of water but no one had to buy them.
Very good, everything went straight forward, boarding, during the flight, landing and all on time Well done
50 minute of delay on a flight scheduled after 22pm is really annoying. This was even the only flight departing from Frankfurt Hahn on that evening so the delay was inexcusable
bring iPad for entertainment. The flight was punctual as most of the time.
A normal Ryanair flight = too many announcements to sale something, hard landing. Otherwise, good value for money
There was a delay because they had to switch planes it wasn’t explained very well nor were there updates.
To not even provide water without overpaying for it was disgraceful.. being crammed in a bus to the plane also unpleasant.. as an Australian I will never fly easyjet again.. just awful
Good news was that Bag Check was open two and a half hours before the flight, which is essential with the chaotic immigration process. Flight was okay, but sitting at the back of the aircraft, 3 overhead bins on both sides were filled with crew bags and other misc items, so we couldn't put our cabin bags anywhere near us. To add insult, twice the crew managed to drop items that they were taking out of the overhead bins onto my wife's head, who was sitting in an aisle seat.
Boarding and disembarking were smooth. Not offering free water was cheap ... I've never encountered that before on a flight.
First -the flight was late - more than two hours Second, not even a bottle of water at bord to give for free for this inconvenience. Three-at landing ive realised that I've lost one of my ear plug headphones and been very desperate to find it with my torch, the crew not helped at all more than that they asked to leave the plane as everyone did before me. This was the last flight from that day- extra 5 min for me with a bit of help from crew - would have bring a super review. I guess this days humanity disappeared!
Not happy with price of luggage or that we had no choice but to pay whether cabin or hold. I didn't book seats but this is unnecessary extra money along with suitcase
I was charged at the gate for bags I had already paid for. There was no other option. I am trying diligently thought easyJet website but making no progress HELP!
You booked my 7 year old son to sit on his own without his mum and dad in s separate row between two unfriendly adult strangers. The plane was disgusting and dirty, aisles and everywhere sticky. The lounge waiting area was filthy carpet and had insufficient seats so we had to sit on it to wait for 35 minutes and my 7 year old sone played on this filthy lounge carpet. The outside of the plane appeared clean. The pilot was helpful with the route and what to expect weather etc.
The flight boarded a little late but made up the time in flight - much appreciated. The staff were efficient and fairly friendly One of the toilets wasn’t working - having only one functioning toilet for a flight of hundreds isn’t really acceptable. I still find it amazing that the budget airlines can’t even offer free tap water to passengers.
Staff were lovely. Seats could be wider/ more comfortable and late taking off
The pilot decided to close the front toilet for himself for the whole duration of the flight, something that was very awkward. Never had this type of experience in my life. Sitting in the first rows, being blovked by the food cart for a 1/3 time of the flight, was something not usual. Otherwise good flight
Would pay more to go on another airline. Everything from check in to flight was unpleasant. You get what you pay for i guess.
Very long delay due to aircraft malfunction. Information was not delivered in good manner.
Great air crew, Seats well spaced, lovely cookie and drinks even in this short flight
мы оплатили багаж через сайт, но в аэропорту сказали, что не видят оплаты и мы заплатили за багаж. Это ужасно получать такой сервис
A no frills flight wet leased from Czech Smartwings on behalf of Israir. Comfortable seats, polite crew and non existent food and entertainment services. I had and entire row to myself and slept throughout the flight. I loved it.
Everything is good but there was no snacks, they only gave us water without any snacks, check-in online also didn’t work, we had to check-in in the airport
The crow was amazing It was an example of low cost flight.
Online booking is poor. Flight crew are excellent. Would use them again.
The close the front toilet this is not good . They arive not on time is been delay the dont clean the plain . Poor
flight delay there and back. rescheduled the flight a day earlier
The flight was smooth, the crew were pleasant, This plain had a reclining seats which made the flight comfortable
Very clean and modern, efficient checkin and boarding. Great airline
