Pros: direct flight
Cons: like being in a flying school bus only the seats are less comfortable
Pros: Food and drinks
Cons: There were no personal TVs and the small TV in the overhead was hard to see and only played 1 movie. The seats were really small and space was tight.
Cons: Crew not helpful. Uncomfortable seats. Bad food. Will never travel with Air_Transat again.
Cons: Flught was 90 mins late leaving becuse of equipment failure. Missed my meeting.
Cons: No charging outlet for tablets or cell phones
Cons: Flight was delayed more than 4 hours. I switched flights to try to beat the 4 hour delay but was still delayed 4 hours. After verifying with delta t am members that my bags had been rechecked they had not
Pros: I liked that we were able to use the go go entertainment from the headrest. Lots of things to choose from to watch
Cons: We could of been on time, we had a connection I. Atlanta and had 15 minutes to spare
Cons: Seats could’ve been assigned ahead of time
Pros: Boarding process was smooth.
Cons: In flight service was disappointing.
Pros: Food were bad. Out of air condition
Cons: Food
Pros: The entertainment has great selection. The crews were much friendier than the flight from SFO to Paris.
Cons: The seat padding is rather thin.
Pros: The crew was very gentile.
Cons: No enterteinment on the plane.
Cons: Missed the flight due to late landing from earlier connection
Pros: The flight crew on the flight was amazing. Went beyond basic needs and requirements.
Pros: The service
Cons: The food.
Pros: My seat at the window was great and the staff really friendly and courteous!
Pros: Once aboard the plane, all went well and I experienced excellent service from the cabin attendants.
Cons: The flight was delayed (again!) for some 40 minutes and I was worried that I would miss my connection flight in Atlanata. Fortunately the pilot made up for the delay (probably costing the airline thousands in fuel). It seems these days that every KLM flight I take is delayed. This stretch goes back to 2015! Yet KLM prides itself as being punctual. Not the KLM that I have been flying!
Pros: Friendly staff
Cons: Security check at gate; No priority
Pros: The flight arrived a few minutes early.
Cons: The plane was extremely old and in poor repair. The seats were extremely close together. The inflight entertainment system, wifi and passenger electric outlets were all non-functional. Even the wastebin in the lavatory was full and an extra bag was put on the floor.
Pros: We traveled the same way back but with Air France instead, which was a joy. This aircraft was uncomfortable
Pros: We landed safely in Toronto
Cons: In this 10 hr flight cabin crew came down the aisle only twice to offer refreshments. There should have been offers of at the least water or juice more than twice on this length of fight. I was disappointed that there were no hot drink e.g. coffee or tea offered at any time, not even with the meal, but this was certainly the least of our disappointments. Only once on this flight did I see a cabin crew member smile. Don't know why, but they were a most unhappy crew that day and this was conveyed to the passengers. I find this hard to believe, and perhaps both my husband and I fell asleep for the few minutes this would have taken, but neither one of us saw a crew member check for seatbelts and seat position before landing in TO. Boarding gate wasn't announced until an hour before boarding, which on an international flight from a large airport was a little stressful, but I am assuming there was a good reason for this.
Cons: We arrived at the airport at 9:00 to check in for our flight that was scheduled for departure at 12:15 and we were told that we could not check in until 2 hours before the flight (10:15). All of the passengers for flight AZ1466 lined up in front of a check-in counter that displayed Alitalia for our flight. At 10:45 they announced the check in for AZ1466 at a different check-in counter knowing full-well that everyone was lined up for flight AZ1466 on our line. So then everyone that was lined up at the first counter had to line up at the new counter. My wife and I were initially 3rd in line and then after we had to move we were in the very back of the line. On top of that, they only had 1 person checking everyone into economy (which was most of the people on the plane) and they also had to weigh everyone’s carry-on baggage. We were initially told they had weather issues with the snow in Rome and they did not know if we would take off on time or would be cancelled. However, I was getting e-mail messages from Kayak stating our flight was on-time. So how is it that a 3rd party travel company knew what was going on, but the crew at Alitalia did not? Afterward I had to go through security, wait on the tax refund line, and go straight to board the plane. After that we waiting on the plane for 50 minutes and did not take-off until 1:05 PM. These were the problems in short: 1.No one informed us that we could not check in at this particular airport until 2 hours prior to flight departure. 2.They did not begin the check in process until 90 minutes prior to departure. 3.We had to switch check-in lines and they only had 1 check-in person. 4.We had no time to shop or eat lunch at the airport. 5.We boarded the plane and waited until 13:05 to takeoff when we were scheduled to take off at 12:15 (50 minute delay). 6.We received no communications about delays from Alitalia (via e-mail or app). However, we received e-mails from Kayak stating everything was on time. We had no communication from Alitalia about the delay or that we could not check in early (which you could do at every other airport I have been to). We also had a connecting flight in Rome that we were concerned we would miss. We arrived at Rome airport on a delayed flight out of Marco Polo airport (AZ1466). Our 13:40 flight to JFK (AZ610) was delayed until 14:45. After we arrived at Rome airport we ran through the airport to our gate and boarded the plane. After we boarded the plane we waited until 16:10 to take-off (85 minute delay). We did not receive any communication from Alitalia via e-mail, the Alitalia app, or crew members that our flight was being delayed any longer than it already was. We planned on stopping to use the bathrooms in the airport, eat a decent lunch, and shop (which I promised my wife we could do at the airport). However, we could not do any of those things because we did not receive any information about delays from Alitalia. After we arrived home in New York the airline l
Pros: Good flight
Cons: Too short time between the flights, almost lose the connecting flight.
Pros: Snacks, drinks, puke bags in seat back pockets, easy to check in online.
Pros: all staf in airport pleasant and quickly to across other place to connect
Cons: a lot of people they pass by preference, and late for star Alliance
Pros: airlines could have mentioned that the second leg would require going thru security again and would take a very long time and that I should do this immediately after disembarking even though a gate had not yet been assigned. As A consequence of an intensive interview process before boarding the international leg of the trip (initially only two reps processing everyone on the plane for a few minutes each) the plane left the gate late. It also lost another 15 -20 minutes in flight making it 30 minutes late and I missed my connection in Miami necessitating me to spend a night in a motel and finish my flight the next day.
Cons: Had the crew enabled me to be first off the plane I would have made the connection but I lost an additional 20-25 minutes being seated in the rear of the plane
Pros: Crew service was excellent, food even hetter
Pros: The crew was generously serving me and the price was more reasonable than any other.
Cons: I had a huge passenger next to me who took most of my space the whole time during the flight and ended up hurting my neck and back. I understand it had nothing to do with the crew, but not comfortable at all. Besides, there was no entertainment and even outlet available.
Pros: All good
Cons: Boarding slightly convoluted but ok
Pros: So if you exceed 10KG by 100grams they will charge you as separate luggage. In my case I was 1 KG more so I paid 66 Eurosbor I won't board. Which was 20 minutes before take off. So I paid.
Pros: I got a great deal with Kayak.com A+
Cons: They charged the extra money for nothing it’s looks like e little bit weird
Pros: I loved visiting Kiev and the friendliness and sincerity of the Ukrainian people in general and the aircraft crew in particular.
Cons: I didn't have any luggage but an associate that I met on the flight complained that it took too long to get his luggage and that the luggage was not labeled. I did not understand the English announcements during the flight. Either the audio system needs to be improved or the announcers need to speak without heavy accent or both.
Pros: Friendly hostesses smooth flight
Cons: Why doesn’t business class get to board first ? Bus was too crowded and was mobbed with people pushing
Pros: Absolutely nothing was good about this experience.
Cons: After selecting the filter for an included bag there was no included bag according to the airport and we were forced to pay a $100 fee per bag and to wait on hold to get a hold of kayak I would have missed my flight. Never use kayak it’s useless book directly through airline instead.
Cons: Every other airline allowed me to carry on my bag, but they insisted I check it (and pay of course). I get in the plane and there's PLENTY OF ROOM. Was only a half full flight. They should have been decent and just let me on with it like every other airline.
Cons: Inadmisible that they charged for the one bag.
Pros: The food and service in general
Cons: The sets are'nt confortable.
Pros: Nice new planes out of NYC. Professional crew. On time. Ok food for an airline. Second leg to Palermo was delayed slightly but no big deal. All around a great experience.
Cons: Lost my luggage
Cons: No food or even water boarding on time but delayed for no reason
Cons: See above
Pros: Seats offered decent space and crew was nice.
Cons: I called the airlines and requested a special meal, and was only provided it one-way so was left unable to eat anything. Water was free, but would only give you small amounts and was very infrequent. Waiting in the queue to check luggage took over an hour. There were only a few attendants, and at one point all attendants left except for the one that was checking in flight attendants. Awful.
Cons: Would it be too much to ask for a free beverage for the almost 3 hour flight between Dublin and Rome?
Pros: It’s was great
Cons: better food
Pros: crew was good and seats was just OK
Cons: more leg room
Pros: It was ok
Cons: It was ok
Cons: TV screens were blurry and not working.
Pros: Good priority boarding
Cons: Delay
Pros: comfortable leg space
Pros: Very good service! Friendly and happy staff!
Cons: The food; I didn't like the sandwich and the snacks
Pros: After our first flight had been cancelled, we needed to be comforted by Brussels Airlines that our return flight would be OK. And we were. Though there were slight delays due to technical checks at boarding time, everything else was on schedule and we even landed slightly ahead of time, never a bad thing. The flight was smooth and quite pleasurable. Now we are prepared to experience flying with Brussels Airlines again.
Pros: Comfort of the plane, service
Cons: No business lounge in CDG before 9am
Pros: Great staff!
Cons: Nothing
Pros: The boarding was good and effective, Entertainment was good.
Cons: The crew did not pay attention to my requests for beverages and forgot to bring me what I have asked.
Pros: The people at the gate. Excellent the girl from El Salvador
Cons: The worst, the attitude of a crew member named Andrew.
Pros: Crew was responsive
Cons: Late departure, sitting on the tarmack for hours, most uncomfortable seats
Pros: Service counter staff was helpful to confirm seating although I did not like being put on standby. This happens too often with Air Canada.
Cons: Stop the overbooking!!!!!
Cons: Touch screens were not working well. Required multiple hard taps which disturbed the passenger in front.
Pros: The crew was nice and the movie selection was decent. Food was ok. As good as it can be when you pay $2,500 for a flight ticket knowing that they are not really there to offer you a service, they are there to make their own money knowing that as a traveler you really have no options other than an airplane if you want to go across the ocean.
Cons: The difference here is that in a 9 hour flight you want to keep hydrated. Crew seemed lazy...they would not bring water to travelers very often...and when I called a flight attendant with the button call and politely asked if I could have some water, she seemed pretty annoyed and told me I can just stand up and go take my water in the back where they store food. NOT A GOOD SERVICE FOR $2,500!!!! It’s outrageous!! Seats become smaller and smaller...and you keep asking about my experience...$2,500 to travel seating in a miniature seat with no leg room is a bit much...and I know no flight company cares about this...we have no choice...either take that or don’t travel, right?
Pros: There was an reasonably attractive opportunity to upgrade to premium economy, which was extremely nice for my long haul flight
Cons: The flight itself was good. But the connection wasn't. For this schedule, it is next to impossible to make the connection. The gate that the SEA to FRA flighy arrives at is at least half an hour away from the gate that SEA to MAA leaves from and there is a security checkpoint in between.
Pros: Everything. Crew was very friendly, always smiling. Helpful. Best flight.
Cons: Food
Pros: i liked crew's attitudes.
Cons: n/a
Pros: The seats were nice
Cons: They didn't even offer complementary water,we were on the plane for 2 hours almost. Not friendly if you are pregnant or have kids
Cons: The flight was 45 minutes late leaving. My connection in Madrid was closing when I arrived. My luggage was not transferred due to this. I almost missed my plane. I am still waiting on my luggage to come to me. I only left Madrid yesterday so hopefully I will get my suitcase today
Pros: This was a long flight for us but the entertainment and food options were great and kept us comfortable the whole time.
Cons: Nothing really. It was a great flight.
Pros: Nice crew
Cons: Lack of entertainment
Pros: It was clean.
Cons: The vegetarian meal flying to the Azores was good but coming back to the US it was awful.
Pros: I know Sata has taken some heat for timeliness and overall canceling service. So let me caveat with my flight was on time and has no delays. Which allows me to mark 4 stars! Plus, I only paid $257 USD for the flight!
Cons: The business class doesn't have layflat seating... Hey they asked! And zero entertainment so bring something to do for 4.25 hrs.
Pros: Crew is wonderful. Very efficient boarding utilizing both front and rear doors of the aircraft
Cons: Food was sub par. Older plane without tv screens
Pros: Nothing
Cons: No organization.
Cons: The food wasn’t good and it would be great if they had pasta or some vegetarian option.
Pros: Everything! I never knew that Finnair was such a great airline.
Cons: Honestly, nothing could have been better.
Pros: I enjoy my flight
Cons: Again no complains
Pros: The flight was not crowded and that was a nice surprise for a transatlantic flight. Each passenger was offered a personal bottle of water upon boarding, cabin crew was very nice and professional. The flight was on time and we arrived at the airport of destination even ahead of time!
Cons: There was no soap in the toilet...
Pros: Crew was professional and courteous. Flight a little bumpy because of turbulence but otherwise fine.
Cons: Boarding in Finland with not too many comfortable seats in waiting area. I'm used to boarding by group numbers but no such thing in Vantaa airport??? Food not good. Legroom seems tighter than a few years ago. Movie selection not great.
Pros: Great friendly crew. Efficient systems.
Cons: Tight seats. Very little leg room.
Pros: Responsive excellent crew.
Cons: Long waits to get to the bathroom. Plane dated.
Pros: Swiss is Swiss
Cons: nothing
Cons: Seats and leg space were uncomfortable, staff could have been friendlier and more presentable (cleaner appearance)
Cons: nothing
Pros: The crew was friendly and efficient, and made all the difference.
Cons: Since we booked online, we were told that we couldn’t pre-book our seats for this flight. So even though we arrived more than three hours ahead, we couldn’t sit together for this nine hour flight. After having the same thing happen on the way to Barcelona, it was really disappointing.
Pros: Flew Air Transat between Toronto and Rome. Relatively open flight and were allowed to changes seats after take off. Food was much better than your average airline. All employees were friendly and helpful (no disgruntled, self-entitled employees encountered). Being a hint over 6 foot tall, there was enough leg room in every seat. Great selection in the personal entertainment system (bring your headsets) and USB port for charging. Although there were many who were testing the carry on limit, there was plenty of room for my carry on. Be prepared to take shuttle from gate and board plane using stairs on the tarmac. Great first Air Transat experience and will fly with them again.
Cons: Not sure how comfortable a full flight or middle seat would be since the seating is 3-3-3. Elbow room may be a little uncomfortable and less leg room. I would go for the rear of the plane where the seating is 2-3-2 if available. Since Air Transat uses a shuttle bust the gate, the gate closes 20 to 30 minutes before takeoff. I wish the Pre-boarding and gate-close-times were published instead of, or with, takeoff-time when booking ( I think you find out this info no earlier than boarding pass). It makes a difference in what time you plan to arrive at the airport and in my opinion, should be included in the travel time, not just time in the air. It felt like I booked a 9pm flight, but oh by the way, boarding starts at 8pm and we'll leave you behind if not here by 8:30. Important info for those of us booking last minute and/or a lesson for the next time.
Pros: Nothing.
Cons: I was stuck in another city because a connecting flight was canceled so I never got on my flight to Rome. I didn't get a refund or credit or anything for my flight.
Pros: The flight was on time
Cons: The plane noise was loud
Cons: Plane was freezing and had to buy a blanket.
