What an amazing plane! We flew a 787 to Miami. Although the Internet was not functioning, it was a wonderful flight.
Plane was in good shape, multiple passes from the drink cart, and one of the smoothest flights I've had in a while.
Smell of jet fuel was overwhelming from inside the plane while on the ground at take off and landing. Gave me a sore throat and a headache. During boarding, de-planing, taxi-ing, waiting in line for take off, etc. Also, the vents didn't have enough cool air coming out (yes, off course I opened it all the way) so the whole flight was hot and stuffy. But just my vent - all the vents.
After lack of help in Philadelpha made us late to board our flight to akansas City, our flight to Kansas City was very good. And the flight attendants were also very good. The only thing that sucked was problems with assistance in Philadelphia caused our bags not to arrive.
AA needs to review it's policy whereby it's most tenured staff gets to pick their flights. This tends to place flight attendants with the most jaded customer service attitudes on long haul flights. Whilst I realize this is a generality I have experienced increasing levels of woefully poor customer service. One particular flight attendant on this flight was downright rude to several customers. After serving an awful meal they disappeared to their cots below deck and for the most part did not reappear until 1.5hrs before landing. A very disappointing flight.
Legroom was decent, but the seat comfort was horrible; I believe the seat cushions have lost their cushion. I was uncomfortable and had back pain throughout the nearly five-hour flight. WiFi did not work despite my attempts to get it up and running. This was very frustrating as passengers all around me were streaming football games, movies, and accessing email and text messages. One flight attendant suggested it was my seat, but that makes no sense, given WiFi doesn't work that way. On another note, I rarely have a good experience with aainflight.com.
Id like for them to not have lost my bag. And maybe be a little nicer to me, given the fact they lost my bag.
Seats are uncomfortable and my impressive barely 5’10” frame meant my knees were touching the seat in front of me. My 5’3” sweetheart found the seats equally uncomfortable The crew were transactional. The food edible. The entertainment manageable. The boarding process efficient. The experience okay.
Hey as long as you bring me back to earth in one piece I’m good! Otherwise great flight smooth take off and landing good staff Only thing is the staff at the back of the aircraft chatters a lot it’s annoying at times but I’ll let that go because they are very sweet overall.
this flight was vanilla… boarding went fine, crew was fine. Sat on the plane, delayed, for nearly 30 minutes. The seats are terribly uncomfortable.
