Short flight so it was okay. Nice crew, all very pleasant and professional. We were near the back in row 27 so just as we got our drinks, we started our descent so had to drink very quickly!
The baggage drop-off in Stuttgart is bad: after online check-in you cannot use the automated baggage drop off as indicated on the website. You can use the terminals but have to cue to 1 of three open and slowly working counters to drop the bags. took about 45 minutes wait time.
Our first flight was delayed so we missed our connecting flight. However it was easy to book a later flight on their app.
My flight was delayed by 6 hours then I missed BOTH of my connecting flights, I then had to stay in the AIRPORT at JFK because soooooo many people also suffered from missing flights and there was no hotels available. I would like to be compensated for this experience! I had to stay in the airport for over 16 hours!
Klm start boarding while somw air issue in the plan
The service was great. However the lounge only gets passing grade
Cabin crew were excellent, very proffesional, polite and friendly, in flight snack was underwhelming, a packet of cheese biscuits, im sure KLM could run to a sandwich!
Legroom not all it could be, especially when the seat in front is reclined. Otherwise it was good, food and beverage were nice.
This portion of the flight was through Indigo. A local carrier. So all economy seating. No real service some refreshments for purchase standard economy stuff.
You should not have to pay for WiFi in business class
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 scams you with baggage charges. I bought an extra bag to carry with me in the plane (27 EUR) via their website. When I came to the counter they told me the bag was not acceptable, even though I have taken this without problems in several other airlines. So they forced me to pay 65 EUR at the last minute to check-in my bag and let me board. When I asked for the money I had originally paid on their website(the 27 EUR), the personnel at the counter just told me it was not going to be returned because this was not the airline's fault. This is flat out stealing.
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.
Horrible service, never flying with this airline again. They have 0 respect for the people flying and don’t respect their own rules.
4h delay, lost luggage, no info whatsoever about anything that was going on. Lost connection bus to final destination. 2 babies beside me screaming the whole time with their mother being absolutely unapologetic. Worst experience ever
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.
There’s no point in paying for priority if we all just end up in the same queue at the same place
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.
