Have plenty of patience for the casual travelers! They are oblivious of rules and etiquettes that slows down the process for everyone. Case in point, a guy held up the line trying to place both his personal item (should be UNDER the seat in front of you) and his carry on case horizontally. Obviously not aware of the big poster right in front of his displaying the proper way of placing his case on it's side. Slowed the whole line of people behind him. Also be mindful the agents in Ontario airport (or any smaller airports) might not be the most knowledgeable on the rules and regulations of air travel, luggage specification allowances etc. Stay patient!! Also the seats do not recline that well anymore on AA flights. So if you have back problems, be sure to bring some back supports.

Avoid Charlotte. The mountain weather is so unpredictable, plus the poor recent airline scheduling services, you will be stranded in the mountain with small airport, with limited alternative transportation methods. The airlines had been delaying the flights and stringing you for a few hours, then cancelling your flights and simply letting you re-schedule your own next legs with the existing flights, which may or may not take off. Airlines have not been courteous enough to schedule more flights to accommodate the canceled ones. If you cannot avoid Charlotte, be prepared to be stranded for extra 1-2 days before you can get out to your final destination.

The flight was late. The crew was rude. There was no food. Cramped and uncomfortable. Nothing about this flight was good.

Crew was rude, flight was late, wifi didn't work, no food, basically nothing about this flight was good.

Plane was late. Zero service for 2+ hour flight and it was not that bumpy.

The staff was very friendly, professional, and courteous. The overall flight was a great experience.

southwest just starting charging for luggage. hadnt realized it until it was too late. now out $70 when i couldve bought a carry on if i wouldve known. free bags was one of the only reasons i chose southwest over another airline (the other being no assigned seats, which is apparently also being changed). stupid business decision. wont be flying southwest anymore.

Cluster mess boarding. Can't wait for SWA reserved seating. Internet didn't seem to work on the plane.

The price of the tickets isn't matching the flight experience. No matter how long the flight is, you're only getting pretzels. The flight attendants looked unkept and over it.

I liked the boarding by group and numbers. I didn't like my inability to guarantee our seats together. I didn't like the $8/flight for Internet, but I did appreciate the inflight movie options on their app. I didn't like that there were no charging stations on the seats during either of our flights. One flight was over 3 hours.

I never like the fact that if I don't check in exactly 24 hours before the flight time, I get to board C, and that means sitting between 2 individuals. I would like assigned seating in the airplanes.

Flight only half full. Room to spread out. Newer plane. Very satisfied.

I thought the service was very nice and pleasant. There were no hiccups and no issues so overall a good experience.

Average seat comfort, a drink and chips were provided, early boarding because we checked a carryon at the gate was nice. Ticket pricing shenanigans, including fees to pick a seat, check a bag, and get food onboard - evidence the industry is reinvigorating last century’s strategies- destroys the experience before one ever arrives at the airport. It’s difficult to recognize any value or sustain loyalty in the end-to-end process making air travel more drudgery than pleasure.

WiFi didn’t work. Flight delayed 3 hours Crew members were illiterate Seat lean back did not work.

The plan was delayed and left DC 90 minutes late. However, it showed a 20 minute delay on the delta app, then a 12 min delay. It turned out to be an hour delay. I found out where the plane was with flightaware. Stop keeping customers in the dark about what is going on.

Could not get my connecting flight boarding pass until four hrs before departure! Ver annoying especially since the staff could not explain why!

Smooth boarding, pleasant and professional lady checking us in. Crew service was excellent, again pleasant, but professional. Nice touch-down on landing! Thank you Delta. 💗

Very smooth, on-time, and pleasantly uneventful flight. The team at the gate and on board were professional and genuinely courteous. The pilot kept us well updated throughout, and both takeoff and landing were steady and enjoyable without any drama. Just a good, solid flight. Thank you! 💗

No lunch on a x-country flight scheduled for 10:50 am departure, arrived 5+ hrs later. That requires a black box label before you pay for the tickets. Worst, when I checked in online, it's specifically said that lunch was served on his flight for economy Plus passengers.

Great experience on Delta. Staff from baggage check to flight attendants were very courteous and professional. My only issue was a personal preference for pretzels instead of the chips and cookies that were offered.

My husband upgraded our seats and I don't know if it was due to the type of planet was or if they didn't upgrade our seats. We were supposed to be in I believe comfort seats and they were just as tight as any other seat- no leg room and we are very tall people but at least it wasn't extremely cold. My husband did put in a complaint about our seating because he paid extra and if we would have known that the space and the tightness would have been the same, we just would have gotten the emergency row emergency row seats that we normally get. We love Delta but both our flights coming home we're not good. Oh I forgot to mention that on our flight to Hawaii our luggage wheels got broke and we had to purse new luggage on vacation then we never had this problem so we didn't know protocol and reported it after we got home only for them to tell is we only had 24hrs to report the damage. Not sure what was going on with Delta this vacation trip.

Boarded early; and arrived home 40 mins early. After a long flight, it’s nice to be back home early. These flights have no amenities; no snacks. So need to bring your own

As I wrote earlier, poor planning and/or communication. At least twice, we were told that we would be boarding in less than ten minutes, only to have the flight again delayed at least another hour.

Great flight. Boarded efficiently. Arrived early at CLT. There was no in flight entertainment on this aircraft. Great crew.

It was a red-eye, but the flight felt surprisingly quick. The seats were very comfortable, and that made resting much easier. I also want to thank the gentleman seated next to me, who graciously moved so my mom could sit beside me. We slept almost the entire way. The cabin crew was respectful in not disturbing us, while also being courteous and professional throughout. Thank you, United.

They promise free wi-fi prior to boarding and then once on board you are informed you have to purchase wifi even after being a mileagePlus member.

Terrible. No customer service, no food, no drinks on a 6 hour premier economy booking.

left on time, reasonable boarding process arrived early luggage came out quickly

Compared with other carriers business class for an overnight was not worth the extra expense.

EVen warmer in the plane it think it was 24+ degrees

Nothing wrong with the flight itself. But due to 2+ hrs waiting in immigration and the additional security checkup in O’hare, I nearly missed the flight.

I was not clear if food was offered or not.

They did not offer coffee on a 7am flight…awful!!

Check in for 5am flight at RDU was hampered by American check in counters being seriously understaffed , was told even supervisor called out. Took so long in line for special services check in that we missed our 5am departure even after arriving at 3:30am. Had to be rescheduled to later flight from Charlotte to St Thomas.

The Charleston, WV airport was cute. Very good staff and small enough to feel comfortable. The plane had more leg room than bigger planes. Much more comfortable.

Take-off delayed an hour because of a missing flight officer, so,arrived in Charlotte lates causing many passengers to miss connections. Otherwise a very good flight, safe and comfortable, with an excellent professional crew.

I was downgraded from first class to coach due to an airplane change. They pulled me out of line and I was the very last person to board the plane stuck in the middle seat with no overhead place to put my carry-.on. Very poor customer service.

We had several flights and they were all on-time and flawless

The small flights with Valet Luggage has a poor service

Had to wait for a gate for a long time, then waited on the run way for a long time before leaving. The actual flights part was good.

The staff was nice. I appreciated that I was able to take an earlier flight, even though it was last minute. The boarding process felt rather chaotic.

Zero issues with this flight. Crew was outstanding and flight was super. Plane was clean and fine. The seats need more padding and water should be provided without cost. I recognize it's Frontier but there are some things that should still be part of the flight. But still very satisfied with the experience and quality.

The crew acted like they had never done this and kept barking passive aggressive orders at people. + the security line + the delay + sitting on the tarmac for 2 hours + none of the apps or signage updating with correct times

Everyone seemed to be in zone 1 for boarding. Maybe break it up a little. Otherwise, smooth flight.

Finally a Frontier on time and efficient. I've had problems before with your airline, but this time everything went fine.

Frontier is terrible. Paid for exit row, not given exit row, refused to refund fee.

One crew member was rude about our bags. Be nice about it. We don’t fly a lot. And the fact that you have to pay for a carry on is ridiculous

The flight attendant was arguing with a passenger before takeoff. The passenger was frustrated but the flight attendant should have handled it with grace, but instead she was nasty and rude. The seats were comfortable and the flight was uneventful. I wish we didn’t have to pay for drinks or snacks but that’s what you get with a budget airline.

Did not get the extra leg room i paid for.

Direct flight I like, Did not like all the delays

Delayed over 2 hours on the way there, and back, no free drinks, no free water, no Wifi, bathroom dirty!
