the flight was significantly delayed. Not much was done by the airline to compensate passengers

Southwest has been a nightmare. Delayed flights, missed connections, systems down. Never again am I flying southwest.

I think Southwest is the number one airline that anyone can fly I have flown for the first time Frontier and what a joke and their customer service United was a very strange experience I'm only sticking to Southwest from here on out for sure

3 hour delay. Had to change plans and was still delayed.

As always, the entire Southwest experience was wonderful, from online booking to flight to baggage retrieval. Very grateful.

The weather could have been better. There was a 40 minute ATC delay in SFO because of marine fog and a micro cell storm delayed landing and take-off at Nashville. The gate was changed 5 minutes from boarding from gate B3 to gate C23 at Nashville airport.

The cabin was quiet for the redeye flight. The area was clean. The staff was great. The 787 Max was in good condition. Drawbacks were that the seat widths were tight for some passengers. The seat padding was at best average and for a long flight uncomfortable.

Employees were kind and funny, as always! Flight was late but no announcements were made for people with tight connections to help them transition quickly. No service due to turbulence.

I used to fly SWA all the time. I know the crew has their little acts that are often fun, and entertaining. On this flight one of the crew was just not nice. Very surprising.

Once again, Southwest was late with my flight delayed causing me to miss the meeting I was flying into Las Vegas for.

This was the 3rd time in a row that my flight was late leaving or canceled. Other airlines seemed leave on time.

The flight was delayed multiple times and then finally it was late by 5 hours. I tried to be patient and then when I finally asked if there was an earlier flight to LA, I had just missed it. I would have appreciated an updated text or something to let me know that was an option earlier. It would have been better for me to get a bus to L.A. with that time!

Boarding was well organized, seats comfortable & it was a very pleasant flight

Crew were bad Didn’t help with luggage When asked for a glass of wine, I was told that they will serve later , which they didn’t to Me and didn’t serve anyone else in First class . Didn’t offer any snacks , Chips or Nuts to anyone . Flight was not crowded either. Worst Service/ or No Service !

Flight was smooth, pleasant passengers and crew. Enjoyed the experience

No non-alcoholic drinks available except water and small apple juice cans.

The ground crew were helpful, although it was unclear when the ETA would be so we had to wait for quite some time before being notified of when we will board. Our seats were also changed, and there were also duplicated seat numbers which cost an issue when we boarded. When this issue came up, the flight crew was even Snarky towards us that we did not check our seat number when it was already reassigned. There were no apologies from the flight crew at all, and it was very disappointing.

Check in Agent at SFO was indifferent, didn’t say hello , didn’t place priority Tag . We were Travelling First Class. No foodas it’s a short flight. Still you could have offered some thing better than Biscuits/ Popcorn. They announced that luggage will arrive in 20 minutes after we reach the gate. First Piece came 35 + Minutes after I walked out of the Plane

Well, the flight hasn’t taken off yet… it will be 2 hours late by the time the t does…

On time. Seats were comfortable. Staff was great. The plane was freezing cold! (And I prefer it to be cold, but it was freezing!) And they only offered water or juice. But overall, would fly again!

No charging outlets worked. Other than collecting trash attendants didn’t come around. No one could hear flight attendants announcements during the flight. Seat pads were horrible. Sitting on a board for 5 hours. What happened to Hawaiian airlines comfort, hospitality, and extras? Our pilots did an excellent job trying to minimize turbulence and incredible job in landing in windy conditions.

I received several emails about my 3:10 flight. When I showed up to the airport at 12:30 to check my bags I was told the flight was actually at 1 pm. They grudgingly rebooked me for a flight at 5:22 to Vegas to get a connecting to LAX. I did find the gate for my original 3:10 flight but they were booked. I proceeded to receive status updates and gate change information for the 3:10 flight, even though I was apparently never supposed to be on that flight

The food options were limited and very specific. Some type of entertainment option for a 4.5 hour flight would have been nice.

Kayak sold me a ticket after check in time. Could not check in. Could not get on flight.

I could not believe that on a 5 hour plus flight we were not given a complimentary meal . That should be illegal. Or it would be nice to be informed beforehand that a complimentary meal would not be provided. The wording in the email I got about pre ordering food was phrased in a way that made the food seem like it would be free. Very misleading! Also during boarding we were informed there would be empty seats we could move to if we wanted, all we had to do was wait for an announcement, however an announcement was never made. Then when we tried to change seats ourselves we were singled out over the loud speaker and told we could not move without asking. Then the flight was about to take off , so we didn’t have time to ask . Then we were told we could not move to the exit row because you had to pay for those seats, but we were not told where we could move. Also no one was in the exit rows so , if something happened no one would be there to assist the passengers. Also people should be allowed to move there if the airline wasn’t able to sell them. One passenger asked if he could pay for the upgrade and the flight attendant said she did not have the capability to charge for the seat on her mobile device, so the airline ended up losing possible income anyways . So why not let people move there during flight if you have no way to charge them? Then the landing was bumpy and awful and many passengers complained out loud when we landed .

The flight was supposed to leave at 7:30pm, but departed 10:50pm. They kept moving departure time out every half hour. It was a 45 minute flight from n Sunday night with great weather.

Flight got delayed and it was very inconvenient . Had to come with another carrier. Had to spend one more night in San Francisco.

Thanks to the supervisor Jose my pregnant wife and our family will not miss a very important ultrasound tomorrow. What he did was simply heroic. He needs to be promoted and praised. Please tell him our family appreciates him so so much!

Flight was canceled with no voucher of any kind and next available flight was two days later.

On time. Alaska upgraded seat comfort with memory foam seat covers with head rests

Deplorable not to have WiFi on 5 hr cross country flight and spend thousands of dollars

Check in went smoothly. Flight attendant who was assigned my area barely paid any attention to me! She acted as though she was extremely busy and flustered. Maybe she was new?! I told her to change the language on my screen, she said she’d come back to help me but never did so I was able to solve the problem on my own. She came back and said she’d made adjustments on her end. Highly doubt it because I found the setting to change the language! Also, I noticed everyone was eating before we landed so I pushed my help button and she never came so I got up to find her to ask her if I can have breakfast. She said they are not serving breakfast but I can have a sandwich. Yes, that was her response as I saw everyone eating breakfast!!!

New Max 10, first class seats have been shrunk. End of a 20 hour journey, it was United not Lufthansa, just glad to get home

One of my checked luggage was damaged. Cracked on the top by the handle.

I have been flying united for a long time but now I’m done

Delayed - leaving, delayed getting to the gate at destination. What should have been a very easy flight and experience was not.

Better management of the boarding process. Is there any way you could forward all the window seats first? That's the Way Reno Air used to do it, and they had the fastest boarding in the industry!

It was perfect! I've never flown with United before, but I definitely will in the future

Paid WiFi was only available for a few minutes. Avoid at all costs.

Overall all good with the flight. Appreciated the extra spacious upper storage for (vertically standing) carry on. Efficient crew, on time departure... What could it be better is the in seat power. No one was working in our row. We were counting on the in seat power to recharge our battery depleted phones. With the dependency we have in our mobile devices nowadays, the availability of in seat power is a must....

On Frontier's website and on the app it clearly states that "Eligible active-duty U.S. military personnel and their accompanying spouse and children, when the service member is present and traveling on the same itinerary, will receive complimentary baggage benefits after successfully verifying their military status through ID.me" however, when checking in at the counter the attendant at the ticketing counter stated that it was only for the active duty service member, when I showed the attendant what it stated on the Frontier website and app she gave me an attitude but did change it eventually.

I really didn't like anything. Paid for my checked luggage online ($79) and then was told that I would have to paid another $79 for my carry on. Was not allowed to enter the terminal until 3 hours before my flight and when I finally was allowed to check my bag and enter, my flight was delayed 3 times. When I finally landed, we were all instructed to "run off the plane" as they had to do a quick turn around to Las Vegas. Me and several of my flying companions will never fly Frontier again.

They didn’t offer a water, even after I asked

Frontier had yet another flight cancellation. Have never made a complete round trip with this airline without at least one leg getting cancelled. Miserable flights - dirty, uncomfortable planes that apparently always have issues since I've had multiple delays and cancellations with them.

No frills for sure. No gate announcements about flight delay, not even water to drink on the flight.

I strongly dislike Frontier. I find them barebones, the seats not particularly comfortable, the nickel and diming is maddening, the app is TERRIBLE - super confusing to navigate, and the last 4 frontier flights I have flown have been on AVERAGE 2 hours late, one ruining a fancy night out in Vegas with reservations made well in advance, which was nodded to with a measly 5000 miles, which translates to almost nothing. At least credit a free checked bag or something.

I hope to avoid flying with them in the future. First flight got cancelled then got stuck with a 13 hour layover in Denver. The process was long and frustrating to many people.

The flight was delayed and I had to cancel because I would have missed my connection and there were no other flights for the next two days. They also lost my bag!!

late late late late no accountability no refund no adjustment no reasonable solution

Several delays in a row totaling two hours with no information announcements and no explanations given. Rude and unapologetic onboard flight attendant addressing those of us in overpriced emergency exits as if we were idiots. It had been a while since I felt treated like cattle. I will do my best to avoid Frontier as much as possible in the future.
