It took almost one hour in line just to check in. Also, the flight was delayed. They changed the seats and the crew was calling people who had previously booked breakfast because their seats didn't match what they had booked.
We almost missed the plane because checking in took over an hour, since they only had one person for the entire flight. In addition, the flight was delayed and the food was not good.
Flight was delayed over 2 hours. They don't announce anything on the speaker to keep you informed so we almost missed the flight altogether
The vouchers they gave us for our wait weren't offered until just before boarding so we spent cash and never used the vouchers.
The entertaiment was fine and the crew were polite
1,The food was bad. I was unable to eat. Simple food would have worked. I chose fish but hardly ate since it tasted bad. Additionally I am allergic to diary products and was not given a chance to express this when purchasing the ticket so I arrived in Rome extremely hungry. I ate at the airport on arrival in Rome,
2, There was no toiletries bag handed out i.e toothpaste and socks to keep us warm.
3. Was surprised that the food was on sale Brussels to Rome. Abidjan to Brussels was free food then mid flight rules changed and the food was on sale on the last leg of the flight.
bad customer service. No reliable information about the flight. How someone who never took an airplane can know that you have to get a visa when going to canada. If your ticket says your last destination is us. And i did not even got a full refund for their stupid mistake. Lack of information. You guys should be more careless for your customers.
I did not get the meal of my choice, also as I tried to check in at home, the system did not give me much choices to respond to, instead the system blocked me entirely from early check in and it wasn't enough time to make calls. I think check in should be made available at least 48-72hrs ahead not just 24hrs. Also walking from terminal to terminal in Frankfurt is way too far, it seems about 2miles + of walk.
The boarding area staff were extremely helpful and immediately got me on an SAS flight to Heathrow to connect to a United Airlines flight to SFO. They also rushed my suitcase directly through to United.
That I didn't get a chance to actually fly on AirBerlin!
I arrived at the airport and learned that my flight was canceled. After waiting in line for over an hour, the agent rebooked my flights, with a five hour delay (originally supposed to arrive at 4:55 pm, now arriving at 10:30 pm). I requested some sort of compensation, such as good vouchers, but was denied.
Uncomfortable seats, mine had a giant metal box under the seat in front of me, so unable to properly place feet for a 9 hr flight. Flight attendants were blind when anyone needed attention.
Good flight schedules to where I need to go in West Africa. On time generally. Leg room is average or better.
The Brussels/Lufthansa economy thinly padded seats are brutal. I was awoken to a sore behind over and over. You can feel the crosswise metal rod underneath. I sympathize with lack of catering options coming out of developing countries, but the economy meal for the red-eye return to Brussels was hard to swallow, too.
I received a conformation email from Kayak at 6:00 am the day before my June 27th flight. My friend informed me the route from Stockholm to Dusseldorf is no longer being used as of late. I checked online to see the flight status and the flight number was non existent. I called Kayak to confirm and was told to call Air Berlin. After a collective 2 hour wait I never received an answer from their customer service department. I called Arlanda Airport and they confirmed this route is no longer used, and I was being transferred to SAS Airlines for the same time and different itinerary. This flight ended up delayed 3 1/2 hours and I did not leave until 4pm. I have currently been traveling for over 20 hours and have still not reached my destination. 100 kr was not able to accommodate the three meals I needed. I have also yet to receive any word from Air Berlin whatsoever. This has been the worst traveling experience I have ever had.
Even though TXL is a small airport, it is complicated to maneuver. My connection was in the same teriminal and only two gates away, but I had to exit the gate, find a departure information board at the entrance to the airport (because there was none inside of security and had not recieved any information about a gate change via email or SMS) and then enter through security again. This was a much more complicated process than it should have been to move only two gates downward for my connection.
The plane was well equipped and clean. Despite handing out initiallly headphones that were not compatible with the system, the entertainment system was a good one (and they found correct headphones.. what a disorganized airline!).
This was a second leg on a trip, but when trying to check in on line I was told that this segment did not exist: I did not have a confirmed flight. (This was through their partner Etihad!) Phone conversation with the Alitalia agent was abusive: I was scolded for trying to seek help from Alitalia. It was not their fault. I am tired of the non-functioning on-line/registration system of Alitalia.
Some crew are not very happy to served clients. They just do their job to earn their livings but they have no service mind. It is absurd that we had to thank them and got no response back. Does Alitalia start hiring robots? Unlike Etihad, Alitalia needs a huge room of improvement for customer service. Very poor service. We will not fly Alitalia again.
