Find Cheap Flights from Sydney Kingsford Smith to San Francisco (SYD - SFO)

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.

Great entertainment

Beautiful air plane Nice flight assistants

The security person was incorrect about my Lithium battery causing me 45 minutes at the security check. I was also disappointed that even a coke needed to be paid for extra.

Tempting fare for a long haul flight. Luckily they had new air craft 787 on this sector.

Bad food.

One leg of the flight was a dreamliner.

Food was the worst I have had in memory. Crew are also the worst I have experienced in memory.

Very little good things to say besides it was a new plane

They had one of four meal options left by the time they got to me, a platinum member. The seat also would not recline to 180 degrees

Nothing.

United should have known the Sydney plane was overloaded with cargo and passages and took action before having passagers on board. I missed my UA connecting flight by 3 min. United should have provided support to connect to my next flight. They rebooked to another one 6 hours later even though they have flights leaving every 2 hours to Las Vegas.

They got us there. Good movie selection. Good wine

Normal Chinese airline seats are small and hard just lick setting on a rock. Didn't eat the food.

The airline attendants were very friendly.

We had a free movie on a 3.5 hour flight but not on the 6 and 9 hour flights. It's time to step it up for long haul flights!

Crew mostly left me alone to sleep. Boarding was smooth.

Seatbelt requirement on top of the blanket (not my experience with other airlines on long haul flights). The lights on the overnight flight were not dimmed sufficiently.

We liked all the services

When we got to Hawaii pick up our bag n drop it off was a headache

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.

Crew was very nice

Seat back did not recline, free still water not available on touch screen ordering

Very friendly and good service- price was very high for the distance/time

Good house of entertainment and food was good for a short flight!

Nothing that stood out overall a good flight but I've had better.

Extremely pleasant cabin crew

The boarding was fine and the flight did not feel unreasonably crowded as some international flights can feel.

The food was really quite bad. Also, the entertainment devices are out of date (double-pronged headphone jack, slow-functioning controls), but function decently enough.

Every one was very gracious and helpful. Thank you!

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

The Qantas agent controlling access to the International Terminal from the Domestic Terminal in Sydney was the best I have ever encountered. Not only did he unravel a very complicated situation created by United, he helped get cell phone to the connecting flight after I left it on first flight. Service on the flight was good and better in Economy than Business First on United.

Price we paid was excellent.

It was just my wife and myself and we didn't even get to seat together. They want extra for being able to select your seat in advance. Food was terrible. Seats recline probably 2" at the top of the backrest so no comfort there at all.
