The flight was very smooth, however, the quality of food was mediocre.
Flight was delayed by two hours. This really messed things up because I missed my connecting flight in Addis. I had a meeting in Entebbe which was scrapped because my flight from Addis landed later in the day.
The crew was unfriendly and very rude to name a few (Helina). I felt unsafe due to most of the cabinets were open while on flight. All in all the flight was ok, but the crew needed more training on customer service most of all for international flights.
The plane was old and the luggage racks above us were visibly shaking during turbulence. Water was dripping on our heads during landing. Our flight was over 2 hours late departing but we were not updated or told what to expect as the screen at the gate continued to read “on time”
Check in took over an hour because printer was not working. Attendant did not know how to give free layover Addis Ababa hotel vouchers or update frequent flyer number. After repeated attempts, got voucher emailed. However hotel wanted printed voucher hence more delay. Bus time from hotel back to airport was printed 4:50 hours, but hotel reception called at 3 pm saying bus will leave at 4 pm. Then hotel reception called again saying 4:15 pm. We rushed at 4:15 pm and bus was not ready until 4:40 pm. Many audio outlets were not working in planes.
The food was terrible and the seating was uncomfortable, but the airline did a great thing letting us board in Abbis Ababa on our connecting flight after our original flight was very delayed.
The flight is packed and it feels like the space per individual has gotten smaller. Excruciating for a 14hr flight.
I had a comfortable seat that makes my trip wonderful. I appreciate the Ethiopia crew, they were very helpful
It was wonderful best Air lines covert and all very happy with their service they have been very helpful and friendly
Flight was delayed an hour. Also, I bought an extra legroom seat online; but the actually plane was a different configuration so I didn't get what I paid for . This happened on the Addis to Lusaka leg of my trip.
The flight and staff were perfect. No notes. Amazing experience overall.
I'm a nervous, autistic adult. The staff were very friendly and answered my questions and came by at regular intervals to check everyone's comfort. They even resolved a fight between two couples in front of me!
The new buisness class pods are 100% worth it. Loved it.
Pretty bad. No welcome drink (the Lufthansa signature drink they advertised but did not serve). No 2 round of beverages. No coffee to end your meal. No snack before landing on an overseas flight. Mediocre everything and unattentive staff. Munich and Frankfurt as connecting flight airports are terribly big (20 min walk for transfer!) and confusing. Will not fly again.
My premium economy experience did not live up to my minimum expectations. I've taken this flight twice in the last three weeks, and each experience was the same. The premium economy seat was worn and extremely difficult to recline. It took two people to return it to its takeoff and landing position. The food was OK, but for the premium that a premium economy seat cost, I expect a satisfying meal. Years ago, I looked forward to the experience of flying transatlantic on Lufthansa (I especially enjoy the hot towel before the meal), but this is not been my experience recently. I'm not going to use Lufthansa again.
If was mostly my own fault. I booked and paid for a window seat. That was a mistake for a long flight. It was hard to get up and use the bathroom. The entertainment system seemed primitive for a modern aircraft.
It was a safe and smooth flight. Members of the crew at the second level, business could have been more polite and engaging.
Our seats were not together - one on upstairs business class, the other nicer downstairs business class. Terrible!! A very nice agent worked hard with other passengers & got us upstairs together. Not ideal experience. Check in agent should have caught that! Asked about upgrade to first class for additional $2500 each. Refused upgrade saying we upgraded once already. We booked on business class to begin with so we’re NOT happy!!
Old planes and rude crew. They need a make over and better staff training. Even business class crew was rude and the hospitality was non existent.
Always a pleasure to deal with United's helpful and knowledgeable staff
