The layovers / connections were too short and too long. I SPRINTED to make the connection from OSL-JFK and then SAT for over 6 hours from JFK-BUF. I don’t mind a longer layover more than I want to RUN to make my next connection

The layovers / connections were too short and too long. I SPRINTED to make the connection from OSL-JFK and then SAT for over 6 hours from JFK-BUF. I don’t mind a longer layover more than I want to RUN to make my next connection

Flight crew was very kind and polite. They had to deal with an unnamed issue right beside me, and did so with respect.

The layover was very long. Other than that, great trip so far

Elderly traveler with disability was bumped from extra legroom to economy with little legroom. He couldn’t bend his knee to fit in the seat. Very uncomfortable for a 7 hour flight and will be reported to DOT. Then the food was disgusting. Boiled chicken with boiled rice and steamed veggies. 3 slices of carrot and one broccoli. We couldn’t eat it. No salt or pepper provided. Disgusting.

Good flight. Mass boarding. Seats fairly comfortable. Food okay although may have upset my stomach a bit.

The crew were nice and courteous. Exonomy seats were worse than expected. Overhead bin space was non existent thanks to loose enforcement of the carryon size and letting passengers put up their purses jackets and backpacks up there leaving no space for others with a small conforming carry on. Food was not good at all. Perhaps worse chicken I ever had in my life. I had to have them take it after tasting how bad it was. Whoever made that should not be in food making business.

The crew was very helpful and friendly. Food was good. The only issue was the legroom -- not great. The seat in front is also too close to see the entertainment screen properly.

Everything was perfect. I would’ve liked better selections for entertainment, but I slept most of the time, so it wasn’t really an issue.

No crying babies the whole flight would be nice. Impossible to sleep. No free snacks , only the main meal

Nothing special or negative. Pretty typical flight…no freebies in the way of food etcetera, but none were expected.

Smooth flight, easy boarding process. Made up time in the air with initial delay due to weather pass through

Flight was over two hours late, but they notified us early in the morning. They ended up changing planes the food on board that was extremely mediocre and we were in premier class.

Usual wait for over a half hour for a gate at Ohare. They tell you you'll get there early then sit on the plane and wait almost an hour

I enjoyed it, again I believe air Canada has better seating options and better drink options

Plane congestion resulted in a 1 hr wait from landing to arrival at the gate. This was in addition to also experiencing extreme delays on my incoming flight.

We sat on the hot plane for ours with very conflicting messages. Some (most?) of this may be due to the flight control staff, but we were also repeatedly getting "we are leaving"/"we are not" messages. It was very uncomfortable

WiFi didn’t exist , seats were super cramped, lights stayed on near my seat for a long time while others were dimmed, the food/trash/drink cart hit my shoulder at least a couple of times while moving, food options were down to just one option by the time it got to my row, the utensils were garbage (knife bent at a couple of places by the time I was done eating) the spoon was very flimsy plastic

I had enough leg room. The check in was smooth. Good food

The boarding timing needs to be improved. The flight was delayed again because it took way too long to board. I was already exhausted from sleeping at the airport and spending all day there due to delay from my previous flight that connected in Chicago.

Kayak, the site I went through to book our flight, sent very unclear emails about flight changes. Kayak was incredibly unhelpful in their communications with me about this, promising to work on resolving the issue, and failing to do so. As a result, I needed to get a hotel in Brussels and am now in the process of trying to get reimbursed. On the other hand, the flight personnel in Brussels were very helpful, taking time to look into the issue and determine if they could help. I am very grateful for them and have no problems with the airline. For Kayak, however, I will never use it again and will never recommend it to anyone, and will even discourage people who consider going through that site. My worst experience ever....

Absolutely the worst at baggage handling. Our baggage still has not been delivered. They couldn't find it in Dublin then when we got to Edinburgh they said the 2 bags were sitting in Dublin. After spending an hour filling out forms at the counter. We left for our hotel, bags arrived in Edinburgh at 505pm using my satellite tracker. Tried calling the numbers provided, no answer to their 24/7 service. Next morning the bags are still sitting at airport, no movement. Called different number provided by hotel in Sterling, the said it's souly the responsibility of the courier service now and they couldn't help. Completely ruined our travel plans, we must find clothes to purchase today instead of going to the museums we had purchased tickets for. This loss is costing us thousands in already paid hotels and services. No one takes any responsibility. I'll be contacting legal services on our return. We will never forget and I'll be a social advocate to avoid using this service.

I was disappointed with my experience on my Aer Lingus flight from Denver to Dublin. One of the biggest issues for me was the attitude of the cabin crew. They came across as cold, unfriendly, and unapproachable. There was very little warmth or friendliness, and I rarely saw anyone smile. I did not feel that the crew made passengers feel welcomed or cared for, which makes a significant difference on a long international flight. The cabin was also extremely cold and uncomfortable. What made this more frustrating was that we were instructed to put everything, including our blankets, underneath the seats at certain times rather than being allowed to keep ourselves covered. Considering how cold the cabin was, this was particularly uncomfortable. I also did not appreciate the tone used when giving some of these instructions. At times, the communication came across as unnecessarily loud and abrupt rather than polite and courteous. I understand that cabin crew have important safety responsibilities and passengers need to follow instructions, but those instructions can still be delivered in a professional, respectful, and friendly manner. Unfortunately, the lack of warmth and hospitality from the crew was the most disappointing part of my Aer Lingus experience.

Cabin crew was one of the worst in memory. Poor in delivering service - in some cases skipping it altogether. Someone in baggage handling managed to steal my electronic bag tracker from Apple.

I buy ticket from you and when I go to the airport aer Lingus they tell me you need travel visa for Ireland for one hour travel so when I buy tickets there no requirement I need transit, visa or not so when I try to cancel my ticket or change my ticket, you guys say there is no refund so you u guys take all my money which is very disappointed

The aircraft was clean and relatively comfortable- for an aircraft seat. The entertainment was good. The food was terrible, especially the “breakfast “ which was a cereal bar, and just not good. The crew were amazing, professional and no complaints there. The food was so bad, I know for my return, it will be inedible.

Awful customer service. What you are told 100% depends on who you talk to.

I love flying with them, the long-haul was fantastic. The short flight from Dublin --> Switzerland was horrible though. Most narrow seats I ever had, first and only time in my life I couldn't even close the seatbelt in seat 1A which was very embarrassing so I had to sit in the middle, because that seatbeld was 20cm longer. No idea why seat 1A would have a much shorter belt, it's just ridicilous. Also I hate the fixed seats, way too narrow.

Food was mediocre, but as expected in economy class on an airline. Wrap was ice cold , my son’s served by a steward on the next aisle was warm . As expected, but at least heat the food up a bit. No frills, but it’s economy. Excellent free WiFi was a bonus

I flew Aer Lingus Business class for the first time. Having flown economy a few times, I was familiar with the airline, and happy enough with economy. I’ve certainly been in nicer economy airlines before, but Aer Lingus is usually very reasonable, and I find the staff to be kind and have an Irish sense of humor and accommodation. The business experience was good, in that you got superior service to the back, lay down seats, better food and drinks, and more attentive service. However, the plane was a bit older, the WiFi was slow(not Starlink) and the pods were too close to one another for privacy, or function. When the Oder lady to the left of me fell asleep(fully reclined) there was no way for me to escape without having to wake her and put her seat all the way up. That lead to me being stuck with luggage I couldn’t put away in a cramped(for business) space, and no way to use the restroom for almost the whole 8 1/2 hour trip. I ended up trying to sleep with a large backpack blocking my feet. The food was good for plane food, but not great. The drinks were great, shame I couldn’t have had more, but I’d have peed myself. I love a window, but next time maybe an isle seat. Overall, the experience was good, not great, but an expensive good experience during which I got zero sleep. I’d do it again, but it’d have to be a deal.

Flight was ontime, clean, staff was friendly - there was turbulence but can’t avoid that (it’s a flight 😉)! The staff were attentive but would be nice if Aerlingus didn’t charge for coffee ☺️ but overall I enjoyed my flight experience and will travel with them again (Ireland’s Four star airline

Luggage delayed and delivers 24 hours later … broken. No resolution… no response. We don’t have a suitcase for the rest of our 2 week trip

It was great like always had all my 3 luggage and I got to my destination safely

Everything was better but france airlines more better than them

Spacious and clean aircraft. Good food. Economy will always be squeezed but thankfully I had an aisle seat for stretching exercises. Good selection of movies, particularly Spike Lee joint.

Unfriendly, 8 hours delayed, no lounge access even flying business. Don’t fly Brussels

On board service was decent. I like the legroom at UA that seems to be more than in other airlines

The flight went well, only during the flight from Brussels to Vilnius I would have liked if they had at least given us plain water to drink.

The crew and the flight were excellent, the food might be better!

This was absolutely one of the worst experiences of my life. I came to Europe for a 2 week trip and the airline was probably the most disorganized airline I’ve ever seen in my life. They lost my luggage. I had tracking on it for just such an occasion and told them EXACTLY where it was in the terminal and they somehow failed to get it out on the flight that night, since we were leaving for Switzerland the next day there was no way they would get it to our hotel in time. Seriously, take another airline at any cost. It’s not worth whatever you pay…you’ll end up paying a lot more in the end. My medication is in the bag and I can’t get to it and don’t know how I will get it.

I felt the overall quality of the plane and food service was less than that of their partner airlines, United. An example was wine was served in paper cups in premium economy class. There was no real silverware, napkins or a welcome kit other than a pillow and blanket.

Although the flight from JFK to Keflavik is not inexpensive, Iceland Air offers nothing but water, no soft drinks, to passengers without a charge. The seats are uncomfortable, there is no leg room, and there was no available internet to purchase.

Was hard to sleep, but other then that everything was good.

We got to the runway and had to go back to terminal to have plane worked on, which is fine, but the 40 minute connecting flight was already gone because of this delay and had to wait 5 hours to get on a different flight and only got a meal voucher which I didn’t see the email until after I had already ordered and paid for food. I feel I should be compensated.

Hard to figure out how to put back the seat, how to get the entertainment, how to upload passport docs. Also, a warning in the airport that food was all for purchase would have been helpful.

Horrible. My dad was recently hospitalized and diagnosed with lymphoma and Icelandair refused to refund flight even though I had a letter from his physician.

The WiFi wasn’t working, so no one could watch any entertainment for 5 hours. The plane also was delayed and did not leave, nor did the staff prioritize those with connecting flights to de-board first. Everyone with a connecting flight to Munich missed their flight by 5 minutes. Then the next flight to Munich was 14 hours later. The airport could not compensate us because the closest hotel was about 2 hours away. This did not seem like the truth. I was not pleased with this traveling experience.

I DO NOT recommend Iceland air...missed connecting flight.....paid for isle seat upgrade for health reasons...had to do that over....baggage left in the rain so clothes got soaked other items ruined....called customer * dont care* service

The ticket was reserved in my name but not paid for by underpricer. Alaska airlines was unable to issue my ticket (could not connect the ticket with the PNR) due to an error with underpricer and I spent the better part of 2 hours at the ticket counter trying to rectify.

Damage May baggage and I report the airport agant and they see it

Crew was very friendly. Need lay flat beds! More snacks
