Find Cheap Flights from United Kingdom to Chicago

inexpensive, decent flight crew

flight was delayed due to failure of airline to prepare: we sat in plane without air conditioning and without water for more than an hour while we waited to board passengers because airline was not prepared to check in the size of the flight it had booked. then our bags got left behind in iceland because the transfer happened too quickly and the airline's baggage subcontractor in boston mishandled our bags and another fiasco ensued.

Decent flight, got me to my destination on time. Snacks were good

Seats extremely uncomfortable and a bit of a delay

Gate area was cramped and a little chaotic

Comfortable seats and boarding was quick.

No air control when we got hot, the stewardess was too efficient and kept taking our drinks, you have to pay for food and teh in flight movie wasn't over by the time the flight was over so I didn't get ro see the whole movie.

Average flight to get you where you want to go. That's it.

Rude air hostess. Very poor customer relations. Very poor.

Drinks trolley too slow, considering passengers on most European flights are paying for their drinks. Quick drinks trolley with the food trolley coming along behind would be much better, and a lot more happy passengers, One and a half hours,approx., from take-off when the food and drinks trolley, from the front, reached Row 10. Not good Willie!

You should board by seat numbers on European flights. Aisles too narrow on 320's (and equivalent), with passengers putting quite large carry-on luggage in the overhead lockers and slowing everything down plus discomfort to passengers already seated. Otherwise a very pleasant an enjoyable flight. when the doors closed.

Our plane was United, so I don't think this reflects on Lufthansa, but rather United. The plane entertainment was extremely outdated and there was not enough room in the overhead containers for everyone's carry-ons. This problem made boarding a very long and aggrevating process.

The very very long delay

clean. Seat covers nice and clean. furniture color scheme pleasant.

1. Seat distance by far too less. 2. seat width on the borderline of being acceptable. 3.. No entertainment, not even a flight info screen available. 4. Only instant coffee available. If it is instant, cappuccino or other café specialities should be available. Emirates and Etihad make the example. 5. Food okay - but not for french airline. No innovation, no thought in it. Standard "how do I get the cattle fed the cheapest possible" food. 6. Electrical / USB / Network plugs or WIFI unknown.

Crew was very nice and accommodating.

This was a 9 hour day time flight and only tvs to share instead of individual tvs on the headrests.

Nothing.. Absolute joke!! Called me once in the a.m to say my flight had been switched to a different airline completely and delayed by 2 hours. Luckily i went to same airport same time as orgininally planned. Upon arriving i was told i would be getting om a flight to Philly instead 1.5 HOURS EARLIER than my orginal flight. Therefore i was rushed and had no iternary, check in or information from both Kayak.com or Ba,Aa. Will not book with you again!! American Airline flight staff were very ignorant, rushed and rude. Horrible first experience.

cheap(?)

everything - absolutely no frills

Flight attendants were friendly, but they only had limited resources to work with.

Worst aircraft I have been on in years. No wifi or entertainment, no power outlets, only bad wine/beer for a 3+ hour flight is mediocre at best...

staff very friendly

Ethiopian Airlines need to get themselves better organised for how they line people up for boarding and make it clearer in the airport where people need to go and when; we headed to the gate waaaaay too early; very uncomfortable seating at gate 1 area. Where are the movie screens for such a long flight???? 6 1/2 hours of a screaming baby makes for a very uncomfortable journey - also TURN OFF the lights sooner; when people are leaving at 1am; they aren't worried about seeing inside the cabin; they want to be sleeping!!!!

The flight was simply fantastic

clean

online check in was difficult. flight delay (20-25 minutes) due to mechanical problems

Boarding is always a bit confusing as I stand around unsure of when to board. The crew is very courteous and professional and even on a short flight the food is great, especially the chocolate.

The entertainment was not great but it was a very short flight.

It wasn't clear that we would need to pay to check our luggage, especially since every international flight I have ever been on allows you a checked bag at no cost. When we got to the airport it cost us $130 each to check our bag which we were told it would have been around $50 if we had done it online ahead of time (if we knew). $130 per bag is excessive for checked luggage and we were extremely frustrated and disappointed. I like to fly Virgin when I can due to comfort but that experience left much to be desired.

Never seen an international flight charges checked in luggage $130 US dollars a piece

The flight on time and comfort

Nothing

Not much turbulent. Smooth.

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.

Arrived safely

Itinerary was Boston to Manchester on Thomas Cook Airlines, and Manchester to Munich on Lufthansa. Computer system was down for Thomas Cook. 300 passengers checked in with hand-written boarding passes. Poor communication between airline and passengers. Delayed departure. Arrived in Manchester at 5:55am, an hour late. Misinformation in Manchester about what would happen with our checked bags. We were directed to transfers, only to find out that the hand-written bag tags were not accepted by transfers and we had to exit transfers to claim the bags. This delay caused me to miss my 7:25am connection to Munich. Better information and communication would have allowed me to make the flight. Was rebooked for 10:50am flight but at gate found out it was oversold, I had no "priority" because it was a rebooking, and my seat was given away to another passenger. I was then rebooked for 17:55 flight. I was told that my checked bag would be on it. At the gate for this later flight, I asked about my checked bag but was given no information, and the staff was not helpful in confirming my bag would be loaded. After a 12 hour layover in Manchester (should have been 2 hours), I boarded the 17:55 flight. I arrived in Munich and of course my bag did not make the flight. Effectively I lost a day on my trip, and this was a terrible experience. Flying multiple airlines on a single trip can really be awful if there is rebooking involved, as they don't work together, and neither treats you like a paying customer. I also would advise against flying Thomas Cook. Their computer system going down is inexcusable, and created a massive headache for not just me, but many passengers who missed connections.

Lucky enough to have seat with no one beside me

Delayed departure but some time made up during flight Sub standard food in comparison to outward bound flight

Airport at Reykjavik needs to be updated to accomodate the number of passengers it now serves

- no attached gate - separate isolated terminal - even water is charged - uncomfortable seats

Inexpensive. On time.

Small waiting room in Amsterdam

Cabin crew all speaking icelandic. Definitely a turn off to make me feel much more foreign and out of place.

The crew was excellent, never heard a negative comment. Helpful and courteous. Flight was delayed from Amsterdam, but did not cause a problem with our connection at Iceland.

Very crowded and disorganized at Amsterdam. More of an issue with both airports lack of people capacity than Icelandair operations.

I like the route going through Reykjavik so that we can avoid New York and Chicago connections.

No food servedl

It was part of our hop from the United States to Malaga.

I fly Southwest Airlines in the US frequently, but this plane felt FAR more packed in than those do. Without a free drink or snack, my 3 hours on this plane were miserable. We were flying at night, and they kept EVERY light in the cabin on for the duration. I don't know why they needed so much illumination to push a cart up and down the aisle for the few people willing to pay for beverages.

The boarding was quick & pleasant, the crew was friendly & helpful.

There was no food left or soft drinks left when before the crew even got to me on the flight

Liked the peppy, retro outfits. Boarding has no process: first come, first serve- seems to work just fine (versus all the Group numbering other airlines do). Plenty of room for carry-ons and overheads, and they actually try to bag people's bags before they get on the plane that should go underneath the seat in front of them in order to save overhead space.

No complimentary snacks and no on-flight magazine. No TVs or phone wifi for that matter, so bring a book or be ready to snooze!

Spacious seats, Flight was on time.

No wifi
