Delta is always late. Ruined our first day of a short vacation. Timing is important. We pay to stay on an itinerary

My son’s suitcase was left behind at SFO and did not make the flight.

Seats were not bad enough and uncomfortable good legroom in the emergency exit row we were in, but we were forbidden to hold my grandson on my lap for a little while, and the stewardess passed us saying it was against regulations which makes little or no sense when you’re 36,000 feet. The food snacks were really bad. Tasteless tasted like wallpaper, but we’re supposed to be protein bars, and the announcements were all completely incoherent because of the noise of the airplane and the lowness and crackly nature of the PA system.. this was disgraceful. No one in our party could understand a word of what the captain or the flight attendant were saying —not a word! The landing was a little hairy in a pretty stiff crosswind -we bounced before the plane stabilized on the runway

Flight team was great and we even arrived ahead of plan!

First The flight got delayed because one of the crew members was late and we couldn’t board until she arrived. Then we all boarded and got held in the tarmac for another 30 min.

Crew was absolutely fantastic and we’re so welcoming and friendly ❤️

This was a Latam operated flight. Seats seemed a bit narrow in business class. Older aircraft.

I was in first class and literally the men behind me were so aggressively loud I moved myself to economy. This has become so common on Delta - people using audio without headphones, and men on 12am / late night flights drinking and yelling to talk to each other which prevents anyone around them from resting. Pretty crazy to have to move from first to economy (poorer service, less comfort...). Wild wild. Looking into other airlines.

Flew first class so everything was great. But maybe because the flights were red eye, no meals were served, just chips. I flew Alaska Air 1st class at 9PM (2 hour flight) and they served beef short rib sliders!

Plane was turned around due to fog half way into the flight, Delta did not properly direct passengers to stay on same flight and instead failed to properly rebook on Alaska

LATAM clearly does not have well-established policies re: luggage for international flights to Lima followed by domestic flights within Peru (in my case, from Lima to Cuzco). On the way in, they forced me to pay $50 in Lima to check my second carry on bag (the three bags were included in the fare from JFK to Lima). On the return trip, they told me at check in that I would have to pay $50 again at the gate (she said they couldn't accept the money at check in) Then, at the gate, they initially told me I would have to pay several hundred dollars to check the big bag through to JFK. I protested, and showed them a print out of an email saying the checked bag was included between LIM and JFK. Than a second woman showed up, and told me I wouldn't have to pay anything at all -- which was great news, of course -- but that means I was incorrectly charged the extra $50 on the incoming flight. Basically, just a mess. Also, their website is completely non-functional -- it was very cleear that all the airport staff knew the website was nonfunctional, too.

Good check in process Poor information on payments at Lima airport

Latam may be the worst airline in the world, far worse than even the lowest of low cost airlines in the USA. I wasted hours trying to PAY THEM TO CHECK A BAG! Then they misled me at the terminal, sent me through the wrong security line, the list goes on and on... Just absolutely terrible in every way. Avoid at all costs.

I was in the last row and they sent me to check in my luggage last minute after boarding. I had to go through the crowd.

Although the flight is goof and the crew is good, the way the airline charges you for every service is ridiculous.

Only complaint is that the entertainment system wasn’t working on our seats and some others.

Routine and on time flight with pleasant stewards and decent food. Nice experience!

You delayed my trip three days for no reason other than your lack of preparedness, did not offer any compensation, including food or a bed. I couldn’t trust you so I moved up my return flight and lost another day at the end of my trip to hopefully make sure I make my next flight. I will never fly LATAM again. You have the worse accountability and reliability and clearly do not care that your clients have lives and what it cost to fly to another country.

No air in the middle rows. Had a hard time breathing. Was dying of heat.

It was a good experience, the flight was a little too long & the food was ok
