Find Cheap Flights from Sydney Kingsford Smith to Los Angeles (SYD - LAX)

plane was new and clean short destination fly was good

The woman who checked us in helped us a ton by getting our seats switched to be near each other for both this flight and the following flight from nadi to LA. She was great. Most helpful person I came acrossl.

Ease of contacting them, their quick response time and friendliness.

The seats reclined pretty far and there was a good pick of movies and tv to watch. They also provided you with bottled water from the start.

The staff wasn't patient an was quite rude. I asked for a drink and waited 30 minutes before I had to ask again. When they would come around with tea or coffee they would walk so fast I kept having to wave my hands and sometimes they would keep walking and not get to me. I was sitting next to an elderly man who was having trouble getting out of his seat in the aisle. Instead of helping - the flight attendant was rolling her eyes and kept trying to push through.

The crew was excellent. They were very hospitable, kind, and upbeat.

The flight was very bumpy.

Flight was a series of late take offs, the food was really bad, people are so crammed in there is no space to even move around, one entire area was blocked with people's stuff which led to exit doors and this is not safe....time to demand airlines provide decent space to at least be able to cross ones legs, can't even do that anymore

The crew was friendly, fast & efficient.

It should have been made clearer that we had to check in at Delta & not Virgin Australian . We waited 45 min. in a holiday line we didn't have to. It was also difficult to find Delta at the Sydney airport. It was hidden in the back. We shouldn't have to wait 30 minutes for customs to open at LAX at 6 AM. I didn't like having to pay $2400 for a ticket when you dropped the price after the Paris incident & I found the same ticket would have cost me only $869. I should be reimbursed the difference. I also don't understand why we had to wait till 10:15 to sit inside the gate area. Directions for boarding should have been clearer.

The flight attendants were rude and not helpful. The checkin counter at the Sydney airport is hidden. Better signage would be helpful in locating the area

Crew was friendly, about as expected for the cheap price

No vegetarian option, in flight headphones were useless, can't use phone AT ALL during flight, gate was changed without warning (no announcements over the PA or notices posted that it was changed)

I liked that the crew was attentive to our needs.

I wish we had more snacks offered

Cabin crew was efficient and friendly. In general, your baggage policy is horrible. Only airline I'm familiar with that only allows one checked bag?? I believe your aircraft baggage capacity is equal to any other aircraft of the same model so why the one bag limit. The landing in Nadi was horrible. The plane hit so hard on landing that it bounced up and hit hard again. Everyone was scared and holding tight to the seat in front of them. What was equally disturbing was that neither the pilot or co-pilot ever came on the speaker and said ANYTHING! No explanation, apology or anything-complete silence.

This was very unprofessional and makes me wonder what was going on in the cockpit? Seemed to take an in ordinarily long time to clear food trays after the meal. They were offering seconds on beverages before they had even cleared the trays.

Service

Long time to load luggage. 45 min late

It was crazy cold on the plane. I'm a frequent flyer and never in my life had I been this cold. I had a sweater, a scarf and a blanket, but couldn't relax to sleep as I was shivering the whole time. My friend traveling with me and the people in our row were feeling the same way. Plus they make you remove your blanket for take off and landing, which I've never had to do with other companies. It went from shivering to teeth chattering. I couldn't understand why they served us a hot meal when we got on the plane. Anyone boarding at 11:30 pm should have already eaten, at that point you just want to sleep, not wait another two hours for food to be served and the trays cleaned up.

Easy boarding.

The food. The crew can be a little friendlier. They don't seem too happy to work for the company.

The only choice of food was curry

Staff was very kind.

Plane was delayed by 2 hours Leg room was tight for a 10 hour flight Movie options were dated

Generous coach seating, plentiful tasty food, all the creature comforts we needed.

The entertainment system touch screens do not respond well.

Bumpy but I guess VA can't do much about that. Everything else was perfect. Thank you

The pilot and flying was good - nice flight.

Most of the crew were fabulous; however, seated in bulkhead, we had NO service for the first two HOURS of this flight. I had to go back myself to get a beverage. Seats are punishingly small in width, so even with bulkhead seats, it was difficult to get comfortable for this 14 hour flight. Note: I am a normal weight person. Those who had an extra 15 pounds or more felt squished. Food was mostly yucky. A few things were somewhat edible. 10 year old boy seated behind me kept kicking the seat - found out later that it was also jarring due to having GAMES on the headrest. Idiocy personified. His constant poking of the screen BEHIND MY HEAD made for an ugly flight until I asked his mother to swap seats with him. Very frustrating. Kids should be in a sequestered area....together.

Everything from the crew to constant treats. Entertainment computer was very good as well.

Nothing. Everything was great.
