I enjoyed the flight, but a little too much turbulence on the flight. Thank you for the meal and entertainment. This kept my kids entertain during the flight. I have to admit comparing the crew from ANA vs United, there was a sense of more accomodation, friendliness and service compared to United crew. I felt for the United crew, it was just a job and it can be seen in there demeanor and delivery.
Attendants were very kind and frequently offered water and snacks. Food was excellent. For some reason, my IFE system would not play dialogue for any media despite my efforts to change to different language voiceovers, restart the system, etc. so I could not watch any videos.
Choice of movies dated as with the screens. Major room for improvement on the software to sort and select choices.
Although the crew was eventually very good, they complained loudly about EVERYTHING before the takeoff. Did not set the stage for a good trip in business class. The western meal choices were pretty mediocre as were the wine choices. We took an ANA flight to Tokyo and they were outstanding!
I liked the flight over all. Towards the middle of the flight. There was a flight attendant who felt like they were rushing to had out vegetarian wraps and said they were “sandwiches”. She also handed out hand we wanted the water but she was walked so fast we didn’t get any. We sat in the seat 45 E & D. And towards the last 30 minutes of the flight there was an announcement saying the crew would collect trash. No one ever came around. So held on to the trash until we landed and left in the seats.!
As always, there is that one or two flight attendants that could be better.
I loved everything about my experience!!! The staff were absolutely incredible. I can not wait to fly again with them.
ANA split my family of 4 by seating us each separately which didn't seem to make much sense. Both ways we were not seated together and the glitch int he online check in system meant we could not change our seats or get boarding passes without seeing a person at the airport counnter. The staff however offered good service in the air.
The seats were broken for several of us on this flight not to mention dirty. Quite unacceptable for the price point and expectation level. The meat was so hard it could hardly be cut so terribly unappealing. The united lungs in SFO was dirty and the bathroom conditions were down right disgusting. Nothing about this experience makes me want to book with United again. Our experiences with business class on Lufthansa and British Airways far out perform United in comparison. Truly disappointing!
They did not get my request for veg food that i made a month ago. Also did not have any backup veg food on board or fruit plate or simething. Very disappointing as i had hward about how grwat ANA was supossed to be. Alsio entertainment was lacking and screen and tech was subpar. Overall just mid to low tie. They are living off reputation and are being passed up by most other carriers.
The seat on row 11 was a little hard cause my butt was hurting a little bit from sitting after and hour.
My issue is not with Alaska for but with the travel agency. The fact that i can't change my flight online, means that using you as a travel agency is a net negative. I only do it because I am forced to, but I am not happy about it.
The flight was late, almost missed my connecting flight. There was no communication from the crew and when I asked the flight attendant I received no assistance. Terrible flight!!!!
The aisles were very narrow for passing and too long to get to the restrooms. You asked to check carryons at boarding, but the bag was not at the luggage carousels on arrival and no information given as to where to pick them up.
They changed our flight to Kalispel and we ended up getting there close to midnight. The return flight got changed as well by a few hours. Then of course some issues with the plane and we were even later. First time flying Alaska, may be my last.
The crew was excellent. We brought our own snacks due to dietary requirements and personal preference. There was an ample beverage selection. The seating was comfortable enough. My only complaint was that there was no announcement, or at least none that we could hear, that our connecting flight was departing from a different terminal. That could been announced by the air crew in flight or before disembarking.
when we arrived crew told us our luggage was at a certain location , waited for nearly an hour after landing and no luggage was there. turned out the luggage was somewhere else far away and no one told us. very incompetent.
5 hr flight with no meal service is just unacceptable. We got pretzels and a drink..
Flew first class. No headrest screens on either flight and the one flight had no foot rests either.
Economy class seats have inferior leg room for long trip, esp when people in front of you crank their seats back. If you are group 8 during boarding, good luck in find spaces for your carey on luggage!
I am a Diamond Medallion Delta traveller and this was a disappointing flight. They allowed half the flight to preboard before Delta One and Diamond Medallion. Once on the plane in my Delta Premium Select seat we were not given any welcome or greeting. Throughout the flight the flight attendant also did not make us feel any sort of special service or attention and even rushed us when she did bring us a snack to pick in the dark not even offering a light to look at what it was -- she was overall not helpful and not accommodating. for the extra cost of the seat it was honestly not a special experience this flight. heads up that even the warm cookies are now packaged. I ate nothing. There really was nothing that was special, stood out or exceptional. Luckily I mostly slept. But I was disappointed and question if I may try a different flight next time I go to Tokyo. The last few Delta flights have been less than great. which makes me very sad.
Crew helpful. Plenty of food although not great but ok. Good time.
This long-haul international flight was the most comfortable among any of the same kind of flight operated by an American-headquartered airline - second to none!
My requested wheelchair never appeared. So many entertainment choices yet, I found little of interest and no internet option to search on my own. Both were minor issues.
Delta is better for short flights and very low need for customer service. Avoid for longer flights
I notice that every time I fly delta or any American carrier, the staff seem tired, overworked, and not at the service level I’m accustomed to in Asia. They frequently crash into my arm when coming down the aisle. Food is shoved at my face with no greeting or verbal cue. The food portions seemed much smaller than usual and didn’t see much wine or beverage options. This is comfort plus? The plane was old and tired. The bathroom was dripping with mineral stains after a long lack of cleaning. The power socket did not work, although the USB output did. I really wonder why I’m flying Delta, I think it’s time to switch to ANA.
I was sitting at comfort +. One of the Asian male crew was so loud when he delivered service. When he asked questions or what food you need, he was shouting. He must be a prison guard before going Delta.
I was surprised to have such bad service since I feel Delta usually does a good job for long haul flights, but this experience was quite bad. Onboarding was chaotic, the flight was uncomfortable as the cabin temp swung from very cold to steaming hot, and the attendants were rude and inattentive.
Why, on an 11+ hour flight, is the food being served at a speed resembling a 90-minute flight? Flight crew practically threw our food at us, then cleaned it up before everyone was done. All, presumably, so that they could retreat away for the next 7 hours to be completely unavailable. No additional beverages were served for hours. Delta is supposed to be the premium American carrier, but on this flight, it made me wish I was flying someone else. Also, the “upgrade” to comfort+ is a joke. It was worse than Japan Airline’s lowest level economy class. Literally no comparison between these two airlines. I wouldn’t fly Delta from Tokyo again unless I absolutely had to. Very disappointing amenities and service!
delta lost my bag with $3k worth of stuff in it 😂😂😂😂
Crews were very friendly and the flight was comfortable. WiFi option was great.
Hawaiian treats you right. They give you a little comfort pack. To watch movies or sleep. Earplugs and eye shields. I will definitely recommend and also fly with them again.
Service, cleanliness, comfort, and food were all wonderful. Hands down to JAL.
The crew was great, the food is decent for airline food, and we flew economy but the seats are comfortable and had plenty of room for my 15 year old son and myself. Would fly Hawaiian Airlines again for a long haul flight in a heartbeat.
We were first at the airport 4 hours before checking in but had no idea where was the start of the line and by the time ground crew lined up all the poles I found out I was standing at the premier club area and when I moved to the correct line I was all the way at the end of the line….also all the passengers who came after us were processed while our line didn’t move at all, and I found out those passengers were web checked in passengers and all web checked in passengers with or without luggage were taken care of before our lines were allowed to check in…This was our first time flying with Hawaiian and this was a new learning experience which we had never encountered before….Web checking in is a MUST if we choose to fly Hawaiian again
Cabin temp was too cold, and lighting too bright for an overnight flight.
Hawaiian Airlines the Lounge was too crowded, and there was a long line. In the end, there was no time left, and i had to board the plane.
Got there four hours before flight; check-in not open, not even set up, no time for when it would open. Went to have lunch/dinner above, came back three hours before flight and line was long; took another hour to get to check-in. When I checked in, she told me my seats as I had booked them, and I mentioned 'window' forgetting there had been no good window seats on the Honolulu leg; she immediately rebooked me to the window of the very last most cramped row beside the lavatories, where (not her fault) I was seated next to a Hawaiian (?) with huge shoulders that took several inches of my seat (beyond the armrest). Exceedingly uncomfortable flight, even ignoring his snoring. I'm convinced the seats on the 321neo out of Honolulu were wider, more comfortable than the 330 into Honolulu.
Kayak did not process the seat purchase assignment correctly (appeared on Kayak site, but Hawaian did not receive the order/payment for this), leading to having to purchase seats again at the airport, without the ones we had originally selected being available anymore. This was a crucial aspect of the flight, and made everything a lot more stressful. Staff was extremely nice and helpful though.
When I booked via Kayak back in March 12, 2024, I specified round trip seating assignment for Hawaiian airline so 3 of us can sit together. However when I checked in Hawaiian airline the day of departure in Narita airport, 3 of us (myself and 2kids traveling together) seating assign separately. Hawaiian airline said there was no seating request even though I have evident to specified seating together. We couldn’t seat together. I believe Kayak has system error for seating assignment. Please solve the issue immediately.
I cancelled my flight in March and have been waiting for 3 months for the refund. Both flights have taken off and returned now and still no refund.
Business class seats were quite old. Flight departure was delayed . Food service was good
Our aircraft arrived late into Tokyo from Vancouver, so departure was delayed slightly for cabin cleaning and preparation. After boarding the full flight, we experienced an additional delay due to de-icing, which was an unexpected but necessary step. The pilot advised that the first two hours would likely include light to moderate turbulence, which proved accurate. As a result, cabin service was understandably delayed. This isn’t a complaint — simply a summary of the circumstances. Once we passed through the rough patch, the remainder of the flight was smooth, our pre ordered vegan meals were good and we arrived in YVR close to the expected time. Kudos to the crew for working professionally and diligently throughout the situation. Will fly again long haul with Air Canada.
Terrible, delayed flights lost luggage and lost hotel fees. Missed meetings. Overnight in airport every air canada flight was a cluster mess.
As we were boarding the plane, there was an unknown substance on my seat. We requested that the cabin crew clean the substance off of the seat, but a member by the name of "Julia" asked us, "Why should I clean this mess up?". She then proceeded to ignore us for the duration of the flight, even asking one of her colleagues to serve us during the meal service instead.
Excellent. I could change my flight and cone back a day earlier. Everything was great thanks 😊
Service well, but some problems then the flight has delayed 1h more
Awful. No running water on the plane. Bathroom extremely grimy, panels taped into place. Breakfast eggs with a terrible texture.
I had a fine time, but when I booked my tickets, I chose my seats. I had picked specific seats. When I checked in, I learned that my seats were gone, they'd put me in random seats instead. I didn't care for the flight from Toronto to Philly, but for Haneda to Toronto, I was very uncomfortable in a middle seat instead of an aisle seat.
Good experience. I like the precise information about boarding and baggage by mail and texts
