Excellent flight, the planes were newer, they did a nice job with boarding, great service overall.

Delta is better for short flights and very low need for customer service. Avoid for longer flights

Delta is a premier airline so my expectations are most always met.

Everything was good except when we're on a 6 hour flight at dinner time and all they offer as part of the fare are little bags of junk food, it's disappointing. Bring back food service without an added price.

Left on time and arrived early this extending our 31 minute transfer. Bags made it also!

I love my flight attendant Faith, always smiles always helpful. She makes the flight experience wonderful thank you

My return flights were changed by the airline and my preferred seat selection with extra legroom was not transferred to the new flights

I actually received a notification from kayak on email but not one by text from Delta when my departure gait changed and I almost missed my flight

New boarding doesn't make sense. Filling front first is slow.

Nothing unusual. It was fine. I hate having to pay extra for my seat.

Survey sent before we actually left. Delay after delay. Now a crew problem.

I love flying with United. Unfortunately, I flew on an older plane with minimal upgraded technology (no Bluetooth functionality or handy charging ports). Otherwise, the flight was great and even arrived early.

They changed my seats after I checked in and I was stressed from the time I saw that information until just before boarding, when the gate attendant fixed it, but it shouldn't have happened. And if it couldn't be prevented, then the people on the phone I spoke with should have done something to help, which they did not, nor did they offer me compensation, just meaningless apologies.

Horrific. They missed my connecting flight to San Diego. I didn’t get there until Monday at 9am when I had a mandatory court settlement conference scheduled at 6am since we had parties on the east coast. This caused many issues. All because United apparently forgot to hold the doors open until my flight landed that only had a 10 minute delay. This was the last flight to Southern California. So I couldn’t even rent a car to finish the trip. United cannot be trusted when traveling on specific days and times since weather didn’t have anything to do with the delays.

My flight was delayed a very short period of time but they did not hold my connecting flight to San Diego, also through United. So they closed the doors before we got off our plane. They would only have to help the door open for another five to ten minutes. So I missed a court deadline for a manditory mediation settlement conference for my client. I had to get an associate to be there in person and be on the phone with him relaying what he needs to do the entire time. The court was very upset with me and so was my client. United cannot be trusted.

Very rough getting into denver. my kid threw up it was so rough.

We were given vouchers we couldn’t use with a 5.5 hour delay

Cramped seat even in economy plus seat 10A. Over booked flight, no space for the bags

Why wasn't this flight departure scheduled eith another crew so that it could leave on time? When we arrived in Denver we had so little time between flights we had run to the connecting flight. We should received some credit for the inconvenience.

Really good 😊 the woman at the gate entrance was a little rude checking in our carry-on but i dont think she worked for the airline, she worked for the airport at sacramento, other than that amazing.

The Wi-Fi was off, the arm rests are hard plastic.

The assistance with the wheel chairs was fabulous. All the people were so very friendly and helpful. I want to thank them all.

We almost missed our return flight. We got to the gate one minute from closing the cabin door, and the agent got us aboard the plane! We are so very grateful!!!!!

The flight there was frustrating but the flight home was very good.

Flight was delayed in phoenix by 1 hour. When Kenny got to minneapolis st paul, Kenny missed his connecting flight to Duluth on Sun country air. Sun country customer service did nothing to help Kenny get home to Duluth. We will not fly with sun country ever again.

When we landed in Minneapolis from Providence, the ground crew was unable to move the jet bridge to meet our plane because the wheels were frozen. We waited patiently on the plane for about 45 minutes while they tried to solve this problem. It was mind boggling that this would not be more quickly resolved, or anticipated, in a place where sever winter weather is the norm. We stressed about meeting our connecting flight to Portland, which we assumed would be our only option for that day. Fortunately, when we finally raced from our gate to the next one, that Sun Country flight had been delayed so we didn't miss it. We decided not to take anything but direct flights from now on, no matter how much cheaper.

No line to check my bag. Reasonable overweight fee. When the connection was late due to weather, the gate agent opened the door and let me on the second flight. The plane waited for my luggage transfer. My bag arrived on time at my final destination:)

I had paid for a seat assignment at the time of reservation but when I checked in the night before it wasn’t there. Had to purchase another seat.

So unprofessional. They changed my connecting flight to a time that made it literally impossible to make the flight with no way to contact them or reject the changes. When I missed the flight as expected, there was no one to be found at their ticketing counter and the phone support put me on hold for an indefinite time. Since they didn't have another flight that day, all sun country air personell had left the airport (this was at 7pm) and my only options were to get a hotel for the night and come back the next afternoon to hopefully get rescheduled or buy a flight with another airline.

I purchased an aisle seat but was put in the middle seat surrounded by families with small sick children (3). That can happen anytime and I was prepared. The ticket agent questioned why I hadn’t paid for my luggage and had to explain that 2 pieces were included with my ticket. I hate that nickel and diming attitude. Please inform your staff better.
