My experience with this flight was extremely negative and resulted in serious financial and personal consequences. The flight departed with a significant delay, which caused me to miss my international connecting flight. As a direct result of this delay — which was entirely beyond my control — I was unable to reach my final destination on time, causing me to lose a previously scheduled hair transplant surgery that had been arranged months in advance. This was not a minor inconvenience. The surgery involved: • A reserved operating room • Medical and technical staff scheduled specifically for that date • Surgical instruments prepared in advance • Strict scheduling that does not allow for easy rescheduling Due to the airline’s delay and poor handling of the situation: • I lost already paid international flight tickets • I was forced to purchase new tickets, incurring duplicate expenses • I spent over six additional hours in airports, under stressful conditions • I incurred unexpected costs for meals and transportation • I lost a medical opportunity that cannot be easily recovered, along with the emotional distress associated with it Although the airline covered one night of hotel accommodation, this did not address the real impact of the delay, nor the significant damages caused by missing a critical medical procedure. The lack of punctuality, planning, and effective solutions reflects a serious lack of responsibility toward passengers, especially when international connections and time-sensitive medical commitments are involved. I do not recommend this airline for travelers with important schedules, medical appointments, or critical connections. In my case, the delay did not merely cause inconvenience — it resulted in the loss of a surgery and substantial financial damage.

Awful experience, A/C didn't work, crew did not do anything about it
La aeronave estaba averiada, 4 horas adentro con diferentes problemas técnicos pero igual querían volar.
Evifente que o melhor seria a Hol cumprir com ssua parte! Vendeu voo dirto Caxias do Sul a Florianópolis e depois alterou, fizemos voo Cxs. Congonhas, com conexão, alem de um atrazo, mais de 1:20 min. Está errado e isso é vender uma coisa e entregar outra...
Fiquei de pé um tempão para embarcar. Apesar de ser grupo 1 e ter prioridade e cadeira premium.Ficamos retidoa e os outros grupos entraram antes... Vai entender este método uruguaio de embarque. Voo sem internet e tv. Voo em aviões mais velhos da gol que tem esta facilodade. Economia??? Pior foi o desembarque. De ônibus e vários fingers libres, vai entender
A Gol precisa aprender comfazer desembarque. Está anos luz atrás em organização. Os comissários são muito atrapalhados.
Kiwi service was terrible they actually didnt make the reservation and their system showed that the reservation eas complete so I had to buy a ticket in the front desk at the moment at and exorbitant price.
Mechanical issues caused our flight to be cancelled 1 hour into the flight; which was an issue they knew about, prior to take-off. There remedy was to reschedule my flights with Delta to JFK and then with United, out of Newark, to Phoenix. However, they never gave me a voucher for the 35 mile trip between JFK and Newark, which cost me $322.00.
Almost 5 hours delayed, no support or info from the company, we got a voucher of 45BRL for food when the local restaurant charges a 100BRL per kg, I had to pay an additional 50BRL to be able to eat and drink something. Poor service and terrible crisis management with the passengers. On top of that, got late for my next appointment in SP and practically lost a day in a hotel I paid over 1500SEK per day
Too much delay in the first two flights, so I lost the connection to the final destination.
Unfortunately had horrible experience Originally booked business class from La Paz to Miami Flight was delayed for 2 hours with no clear explanation
Our flight was canceled and we were put on a different flight, but we were never notified of the change until we checked in. BOA provides no beverage service during the flight and there is no in-flight entertainment. Airline staff tried to tell us that we were not allowed one personal item and one carry-on bag per person, but instead that we were only allowed one item aboard per person, which contradicts their written luggage policy. Airline staff also claimed that a car seat counted against our carry-on allowance, even though our child had his own ticket and is required to use a car seat on board per airline policy.
This airline and their crew is so professional and kind, the trip was short and easy.
6 horas de retraso en el vuelo sin ninguna explicación por parte de la aerolínea.
Always late, the service is a sandwich, no comfort at all…
They had a problem with their air conditioning system and we almost had heat strokes because they blasted HEATED AIR for almost 40 minutes and there was literally no air. This is the worst airline in Bolivia. Can't believe we have no other options sometimes.
BOA is truly the worst airline in Bolivia. It's a shame we sometimes need to use it cause we have no more options.
This airline is always THE WORST. They seem to have flights moving to other times (late) 90% of the time. The airplanes are old, and the landing (i really don't know why) is 90% of the time shaky. I actually never buy tickets from BOA, I prefer other airlines by far.
This is one of the oldest airplanes I've ever been in. No tv, no entertainment at all, seats are SO UNCOMFORTABLE and the whole flight was so cold. It's the worst flight ever. Avoid it.
Do not flight in BOA, pay a little bit more and you can use Copa or Avianca, this company is a nightmare from the boarding process, plane quality, services, etc, etc.
