Boarding in New York was smooth and well organized. However, the boarding process in Dubai was less convenient. Passengers were asked to board an hour before departure, but after that we had to wait in another area that did not have enough seating capacity. To make matters worse, the flight was officially delayed by an hour, followed by an additional 45-minute delay while on the aircraft. The food was excellent and exceeded expectations. Seating comfort was decent for Economy Class, and considering the fare category, I have no major complaints. The entertainment system was outstanding. Being able to watch a FIFA match live during the flight was a completely new and enjoyable experience for me, making the journey much more engaging.

The flight was literally cancelled by emirates and you sent me to a scammer website of Underpricer.com for the tickets who still has not provided a refund for one ticket. Kayak has gone seriously downhill. If you are going to redirect people to a site then ensure they are reputable and not untrustworthy scammers. Am never using kayak again after this experience. And update your algorithm or whatever so you don’t send out auto emails checking on flight experience of cancelled flights due a literal WAR!! also I have complained about underpricer and nothing from kayak. So disappointing

Difficult to find some food option for gluten and dairy allergy. May be a fruit salad would be better

Fly Dubai takes low cost and thrift to new depths in terms of service levels, terminal 2 is grossly inadequate for capacity and resembles a crowded buss or railway station,, the fly dubai( Emirates) flight is never on time(was 2.5 hrs delayed), and this is not an isolated experience, the flght air conditioning was turned low while we waited on the tarmac for take clearance to save fuel, should say more!!!! The depths! I only fly this airline from a compulsion, emirates code shares for connections to Muscat

Thay crew was so nice.Air hostess il ham was so nice.my mom was little scray with airplan turbulence she help us alot.

Airline did not have enough vegetarian meals for all guests, and crew were not adequately trained to handle this.

Flight got canceled without any prior information and it caused lot of trouble

More leg room and comfortable seats at least for long flights

Great flight. Comfortable seats, courteous service, and excellent selection for entertainment.

The plane and services in Emirates flight from Los Angeles to Dubai were very good . But plane and services in flight from Dubai to Delhi were very poor/uncomfortable. Staff at Dubai and crew in Dubai plane was very very disappointing|shabby. Wheel chair was given only for a very small part of layover at Dubai and we faced great inconvenience. In short , our experience Dubai onwards(fly Dubai) was very bad and uncomfortable.

The flight was smooth Thank God but the delays and changing gates for 3-4 times made me so tired of walking back and forth with heavy bags I thought I was going to pass out with heavy headaches but Thank God finally found the final gate and home safe. These delays happen anytime for important reasons so just be patient when you come across these situations.

Delayed my flights and no communication. We end up spending 6 hrs in Doha. No food or any concern from the airline. Terrible

Between Air India and Qatar my luggage was lost for three days. I eventually found my own luggage location using the Apple Air Tag. Air India used a paper form to report my lost luggage. I could never get past getting past luggage personnel with my report number before they would hang up on me. Only after them specifically telling Air India at Chandigarh airport where my luggage was located which was right under their noses did they react. After three days I finally received my luggage. The Air India luggage folks didn’t seem proactive in finding the luggage’s rightful owner.

The made us waiting and held our passports and boarding pass making us miss our flights

Wore experience due to delay and took me 3 days to reach my destination.

The overall experience for the price we paid was mediocre. Nothing outstanding! Check in process was standard. Flight attendants could have been more well mannered. I found it rude when the attendant nudged me with the snack box to grab my attention when not looking. She could have said ,’excuse me’ instead. My son’s in flight entertainment was not working. The food was not great either. The snack options were not so great with kids in mind. Overall, might not travel qatar again.

Crew members service are at its best Seating area is very compact, could be better

Boarding was delayed by 2 hours since the machine that assigned boarding passes broke down and we were left waiting to drop our luggage

Excellent service and very comfortable business class for a long journey. Carry on bags in business class weight limits

The boarding was very unorganized, they had my dad “83 years old “ stand for long time to Wait in the line then stand behind the counter, we had two kids with us but the separated my dad from us for long time

Entertainment system is okay, flight attendants were ok. Leg space very narrow, I couldn’t get what I wanted to eat, dinner nor breakfast.

Excellent experience with business class area. Staff was attentive and food was amazing. Only one bathroom for business class which was logistically difficult for the staff while preparing meals. Need to offer fluids with meals. I did not get enough water to drink. But overall I rate it 5 star.

As a big guy the seats are way too small for me. Would prefer more comfortable seats on these long haul flights.

The staff at IST airport could have been more helpful. Too much wasted time and the plane from IST to KHI was just horrible. The plane was not clean and smelled bad!

This is my 2nd time with the Turkish airline. Would definitely recommend. In stability we connected to Indiago would not recommend, very cramped seating. No inflight entertainment..service was inferior.

Vegan food tasted good. Restroom could be kept cleaner. Seat tray table was a bit tilted so food tray kept sliding down a bit. Flight crew can be a little more friendly, caring and approachable. Their faces lacked smiles and tone was stern.

Flight was delayed then we had to redirect for medical emergency during which time we had no information on what is the plan. The connecting flight was also delayed.

Awful seats, poor air circulation. Smelled like poop for 3-5 mins after someone used the bathroom. Child screaming for 13 hours

We are thankful for the useful gifts provided by the airline.The entertainment and crew were also very good

Quality of service on board was very inconsistent. FA service primarily seemed robotic and they barely engaged with passengers

Poor customer service, not keen to do the job, almost rude, no courtesy or even interest in customer service what so ever !

Me and my family had a flight from Dallas USA to Amman Jordan and as a foreign passenger I thought this company would be good because it has a direct flight but You can’t imagine how much we are disappointed from Royal Jordanian it’s something unbelievable. It was a nightmare and a crazy experience that we had since we got seated in the airplane. The flight attendance was being rude with pretty much every passenger in the airplane. We were a family of five members, during the flight, my sister started bleeding from her nose. It wasn’t one drop or two drops. It was a bad bleed. We asked the flight attendance to help and get us some napkins or any first aid tools. She saw my sister bleeding and She saw us panic and she said she will be back, but she never been back. We never seen her after that all along with our flight!!!! What is that Royal Jordanian !!!????? we tried based in our knowledge to help her and put some napkins. We kept her head up for pretty much two hours, and some of the passengers help us with water and napkins as well to clean her up, but we didn’t get any kind of help from the flight attendance. What a crazy attitude what a crazy customer service it’s more than the word Bad. !!! is that how you deal with a medical condition in the airplane? Are you guys care about the passengers? I have never ever experienced this bad customer service in my entire life. I never even think that this would happen in the airplane without getting any help from the flight attendance. Do you guys care about human rights? Do you guys care about passengers? Do you guys care about somebody bleeding in the airplane and need a medical assistant???!!!! what the hell is that Royal Jordanian?!!!!!!! also during out fligh , one of the flight attendance her name is Sarah was screaming and yelling on my mom , my mom is an elder lady, and the flight attendants was asking her what she want to eat, but she was yelling. I called the flight attendant and I told her nicely please can you lower your ton when you talk to my mom you don’t have the right to yell at her. She said well I was working all day with other flights and I’m exhausted. I told her this is not my damn business. You can’t have this excuse to be yelling or being rude with the passengers and you can bend a little bit and talk to her nicely. You can’t just keep standing and yelling at her. If you can’t hear her while you standing how do you think she will hear you while she’s sitting if you need something you have to bend and get closer to her and talk to her you can’t scream or yell just like that she gave me a look and she just left. Royal Jordanian, you don’t deserve a penny for your ticket we are a family of five passengers We paid over $7000 for the ticket just to get a bad customer service and bad behavior with my sister medical incident I will make sure my experience will reach to the highest position in this company. No one will accept this kind of behavior or attitude. No thank you,

I originally purchased and selected window seats G12 and L12, and I also placed a bid for K12. These were the seats I specifically chose and paid for. However, I have now been reassigned to D11, E11, and F11, which are middle-row seats. I did not purchase these seats, nor did I bid on them. Due to a medical condition, I am unable to sit in middle-row seats. Sitting in the middle section causes me to become dizzy and nauseous, and I may become sick during the flight. This is the reason I specifically purchased and bid on window seats. I respectfully request that you restore my original seat assignments or provide comparable window seats. If this is not possible, please refund the amount I paid for the seat selections so that I can make other arrangements. I have attempted to contact your customer service multiple times without success. I called approximately ten times and also tried calling your office in Jordan, but I was unable to reach anyone.

This is my second time within two weeks using them. I have bad experience with their Internet. They charge me $35 for Internet worked only for 15 minutes and then disconnected and they don’t even give me a credit or refund my money or give me a voucher about the food. It’s very bad test. There is no test actually and barely cooked still raw.

I love everything but the hotel the hotel was very smelly and the people were so rude the food was so cold and very disgusting. The manager was also so rude

They cancelled the flight while we were at the gate. Then they rebooked me for the next day but then that was missed because I now have a connection and the first flight took too long to get to the airport. Right now sitting in the hotel until the next flight. Worst trip

Excellent There was no hot beverages in the last hour

POOR. The gate changed 5 times. The plane was late. The waiting crew and the desk staff were gossiping and chatting amongst themselves about the maintenance and plane issues. No water service on the plane after the long delay. Even after I asked for a water. I was in seat 1A. Single crew member we saw sat in the seat the whole flight on his phone. After a stressful boarding process and delay- it was REALLY disappointing.

Short handed at the check in counter. There was only one person and so many people waiting

Poor job on boarding...lot of delays on the landing
