The tickets we had purchased through Kayak were charged but not booked. Juan did everything in his power to get us on that flight. And when the kayak company failed to book in time Juan got us on the next available flight, being to sure to find us the best price and a direct flight, versus the one we had booked earlier. Over all Alaska Airlines will be the standard my future experiences will be based off of if I am unable to travel through them"

Cons: "where to start, I am not a huge overweight person. I have 26-28" shoulders and longer legs then most 5'-10" people have. That said, you should not be required to hold your arm out and hold the seat back in front of you so that you are not elbowing or shouldering the people beside you. sitting sideways on a seat I paid extra for doesn't seem like a great flight to me."

Pros: "Flight attendants we were very nice and efficient. Flight was short"
Pros: "Traveling with a 4 year old isn’t always easy. Delta’s flight attendants and the captains controlling the plane were excellent! Safe flight. And the entertainment that is provided for the customers is fun and relaxing. Makes a 4.5 hour flight go by quick. Thank you delta, I will be flying with you in the future"
Pros: "Excellent crew, snacks and coffee, comfortable economy seats. Plane landed 15 min early. Bags beat me to the carousel."
Pros: "Generally, Delta is cleaner, their terminals are much nicer, and the experience is better than one with American and United. I wish they had more direct flights to my normal destinations--I'd fly with them more!"
Cons: "Someone unloaded a lot of crumbs on my tray table and they all got smooshed on the back of the seat between the tray table and chair. It was pretty nasty. (The tray table was clean, the back of the seat wasn't. Please be nasty.)"

Cons: "Terrible turbulence. Very rough landing. No beverage service. Late taking off."
Pros: "Flight was comfortable. Short, sweet, and landed before I knew it. Boarding was a smooth process."
Cons: "The flight crew and service on the plane was fine. My biggest complaint was at the baggage drop off at the airport, where there was quite a long line without any crew members assisting us. A five to ten minute wait is fine, but a fifteen minute wait, with only three crew members compared to the other airlines? By the time I dropped off my baggage, the other airlines were finished with their customers, and there was still quite a line behind me."
Pros: "Barcelona is a busy place. Don't forget your adapter plugs - like I did."
Pros: "Received sky boarding despite having a seat near the front. I like the smaller plane because there was plenty more leg room where I was (9c). A variety of free snacks were offered along with starbucks coffee, score! I wish I'd brought my ipad to take advantage of the free wi-fi and movies in-flight. Take-off & landing were very smooth despite a delay upon take-off. Made my connecting flight with time to buy lunch."
Pros: "The crew and service were outstanding, seat was comfortable."
Pros: "Service was great, flight was excellent"
Cons: "Delay"
Pros: "Even with the weather being bad, the flight crew handled the situation really well. No one on the plane freaked out which was awesome, so I'm happy with the way they handled it."
Cons: "The weather was pretty nasty so we had to be re-routed to Cleveland to get more gas before landing in Columbus. It definitely wasn't the airline's fault, but it still was annoying. Thankfully I didn't miss anything!"
Cons: "Super delayed. Sat on runway for 2.5 hours"
Cons: "Delayed flight, mechanical"
Pros: "Excellent. Smooth staff. Lots of humor and smiles"
Cons: "No entertainment except paid WiFi."
Cons: "Delays and ground chaos nearly caused us to miss our international connection. Gate staff unable to provide assistance with booking on connecting partner airline. Gate staff unaware of new terminal 3 to TBIT airside shuttle nearly directed us to leave domestic and requeue for international security. Will like skip Delta connectors to long haul international flights and just fly direct from SFO."
Cons: "See above."
Pros: "I was very grateful to have made this flight on standby."
Cons: "Someone has to sit in the seat next to the restroom. Had I a choice in the matter, I would have preferred to sit elsewhere. But as I said, I was grateful to have made the flight, and arrive at my destination a mere 3 hours late."
Pros: "Reassuring that the airport desk staff were keeping an eye on my connection from LAX to Columbus. Turned out it was too tight of a squeeze and I missed the connecting airplane's door closing by a few minutes, despite having RUN through LAX to get there."
Cons: "I am disappointed by the lack of communication among Delta staff when we arrived at LAX. Our turn-around was late coming into SMF, thus late leaving. It would have been very helpful if the gate staff at LAX had advised me to not bother to try to make my connection, or called the next gate to tell them we were running over there. RUNNING. Or at least done something to act like they cared. I am disappointed by the lack of initiative. I understand flights cannot wait, and I would have greatly appreciated being saved the trouble of running to a different terminal and instead taking that time to change my travel plans. They may see travelers struggling like this daily, but to each traveler, a hiccup in travel plans trip is stressful and urgent. I ask Delta staff to please consider that when they come to work. Thank you."
Pros: "Got on earlier flight as standby."
Pros: "Met my cousins from Portland in SLC and killed layover time"
Pros: "Cookies"
Cons: "Late"
Pros: "The seats were comfortable, service was good, movie/entertainment selection great. Logistics for flight were awesome, there was no long layover."
Cons: "The extra fee for check-in baggage."
Cons: "Paid for Comfort+ at the Kiosk. My app said I had a Comfort+ seat, but at boarding found out I had two (yes, two) non Comfort+ seats assigned to me. Had to call and tweet to get my payment for Comfort+ back. All in all a very poor showing for Delta's seat assignment and reservation system."
Pros: "Pilot has very smooth landing. Crew were nice"
Cons: "in Amsterdam any DELTA crew helm us, only KLM"
Cons: "The lines were too long for a 75 year old. I have recheck but did not get it with American. Security was madness, no one keeping social distance in spite of all your lovely signs. The staff giving directions on the moving table was unintelligible to me and so i left my iPad in my bag and had to spend 20 minutes tearing my bag apart . The gate was the only one not listened on the departure board and so i went the wrong way into the wrong Gs. There was no one around to check with, no one to ask and when i realized i went the wrong way i had to run back . At 75. I was the last one on board. No one helped me. The only friendly and helpful staff i met was Peter on the Chicago to LaCrosse flight. Very disappointed."

Pros: "Everything was easy"
Pros: "Crew was amazing, seating too crowded"
Cons: "Consider removing seats to add more space per seat"
Pros: "That I was FINALLY able to get to my destination after a THREE AND HALF HOUR DELAY.

I didn't like anything."

Pros: "Flight was mostly empty and it’s a short trip."

Pros: "Early arrival!"
Pros: "Very nice new plane."
Cons: "British Airways/American Airlines lost/delayed luggage again! Then send an email in the middle of night with a link to schedule home delivery of the luggage that was valid for 4 hours only. It is clearly an attempt to cheat out of their responsibility of home delivery of the luggage that was delayed the second time. Poor, poor service by American Airlines."
Cons: "The crew was very disappointing!!!!!!"
Cons: "No overhead space"
Cons: "Waited an extra 30 minutes for luggage to be loaded. Every American ( British airways partner) flight we took was delayed."
Pros: "Got here early"
Cons: "Nothing"
Cons: "I guess I was lucky to get a seat at all, since this last leg of my itinerary was deleted from my ticket when I got to the airport. So my bag couldn't be checked through, and they wanted to charge me for it even though it was a connection to the international flight I had just taken. A truly dreadful experience."
Pros: "DCA based AA gate agents were awesome. We were booked on a flight that was delayed, turned out there was a flight about to depart (it had been delayed 2.5hrs due to weather), but was departing prior to our reg scheduled flight so they put us on standby. No doubt the crew was also columbus based and eager to get home...as they did. Couldn’t be more pleased to get home"

Cons: "They didnt take care of us.... aftee the airplane was delay for almost 4 hours, and told us that must of the people.were traveling.by car from sacramento to san francisco to take the other airplane didnt even gave us anothee option!!"
Cons: "When transferring our luggage from the flight from Panama, we had to walk all the way to the entrance of the airport as if we had just arrived there instead of being able to transfer the luggage directly. This was not communicated, and we ended up walking around a lot and having to ask at the info desk. When we finally got to the counter, the woman there gave confusing instructions and was incredibly rude to us. As for entertainment on the flight, we couldn't do anything without the app, which you have to get before you're on the plane. Boo."

Pros: "Comfortable seat"
Cons: "Nothing"

If i pay for an aisle seat I expect to be able to “sit” in the whole seat (and not to mention free from hatred)"

That was unprofessional, disrepectful, and bottom line rudeness."

Cons: "Everything."
Pros: "Service"
Cons: "Chairs don’t have foot recline no blankets or pillows offered ... late flight compared to the time advertised"
Pros: "Awesome flight ✈️ etc. never have flown Spirit and pleasantly surprised!!!"
Pros: "Efficient boarding and friendly staff"
Cons: "Seats could have been more comfortable for sleeping"
Pros: "I didn’t die."
Cons: "Flight delayed over an hour because of a “technical issue” Communication surrounding that was poor. Bathroom sink was leaking."
Cons: "For a red eye, this was miserable and a terrible experience. I thought I was paying $99 only to find out I had to pay for my bag (carry on) and my seat. Terrible experience."
Cons: "No organized loading. A free for all. Gate changes close to time due to another flights delayed arrival."
Pros: "Friendliness of the crew. Clean plane."
Pros: "The customer service stands out for Spirit Airlines."
Cons: "Na"
Pros: "Nothing"
Cons: "Nothing"
Pros: "The airline was on time and teams was great."
Pros: "I was scared because the lines were longer than I’ve ever seen. 10 minutes into waiting they called for any Columbus people to come up front !!! Then to my surprise when we got on the plane we were in first class !!!"
Cons: "$80 fee for 1 bag"
Cons: "Crew from Ft Lauderdale was very unprofessional and were hanging out as a group, laughing nearly the entire flight; they could not even get through an announcement without busting up."
Pros: "I made it home safely."
Cons: "The seats were very uncomfortable."
Pros: "I payed $50 for luggage. Frontier took over an hour to get the luggage to the conveyor belt. I was late for our Easter dinner because of this!"
Cons: "I was delayed 3 hours which seems to be a common occurance at Spirit. $50 is a little astronomical for a checked bag but still less than a carryon."
Pros: "The staff was wonderful, and hilarious! Shout out to Scott from flight 338! He made everyone on the plane laugh. Also the staff at check in gave me an emergency exit seat so I had plenty of room!"
Cons: "The flight was already delayed for over 1hr 30 min and then the Baggage handlers put the bags in the wrong place we had to go back to the gate and wait for them to move bags from the front to the back"
Pros: "Check in and boarding were painless."
Cons: "They charge for everything... For my seat, for my luggage (that's normal) but they don't even offer a complimentary beverage. Also, it took 30 minutes at baggage claim."
Pros: "Cheap flight"
Cons: "Seats don't recline, plane was late getting out of the airport at both destinations."
Cons: "Been told : flight oversold , got one seat for you in about a month ! By the way im in the Dominican rep coming back home from a vacation bought 3 months ago ! How my seat can be overbooked ???? How am i getting home ???"
Pros: "There was adequate leg room, and someone won a free ticket on our flight!"
Cons: "We were delayed by an hour, but the crew was really great about the delay. No entertainment system."
Cons: "This airline nickel and dimes you. $10 to print a boarding pass at airport. $40-$45 for bags, crazy. They should be up front. They come off as sneaky. Pay for a seat or be thrown where ever they please."
Pros: "Price is good, I purchased a seat and that worked well, the price was fine"
Cons: "Why are the seats so uncomfortable?"
Pros: "We landed safe."
Cons: "I needed to change my flight to a later time within minjtes of booking and they charged me for it. The delay was over two hrs w no explanation, $100 charges for a backpack, seats do not recline, narrow space, $3 for water,, there were emty seats and was told I would have to pay $75 is I moved from my broken seat. staff is rude, disrespectful and unprofessional. Overall , I have travleled the world in all kinds of flights and by far the worst experience I have ever had was flying SPIRIT Air. I will avoid flying Spirit unless it tis my last option...which I may cosider not flying at all. Zero Stars"
Pros: "It was much faster and easier"
Pros: "The guy (Brandon) at the luggage department for Spirit who was able to help make sure my luggage was shipped back to Los Angeles safely. He was very helpful."
Cons: "I would have to say that was the worst experience of travel in my life. I realize I bought my ticket a couple days before the flight but I was not informed I was on standby until I got to the gate. Even the girl at the front desk did not make me aware of this. I believe this is very unprofessional business practice. The flight was delayed for two hours and I was not given a seat. I missed the flight and did not want to wait around for 24 hours to take the next flight to Philadelphia. There was no warning that the flight was boarding and I missed my flight. Basically I had to lose the 300 dollars I paid for the flight and I nothing to show for it except a bad headache."
Pros: "Got a great price for the essentials I needed! Very happy with service and flight."
Pros: "Cheap and got us there with our luggage in tacked."
Cons: "Staff was trying to be hip...off putting to hear "awesome" or "okay cool" during safety demo. Flight home was delayed by two hours due to a crew miscommunication; we sat waiting for a plane to arrive with the crew for our flight. It made for a very late arrival home."
