Pros: "This flight is generally convenient."
Cons: "The flight was late due to a late arriving aircraft. 1:15 late. I wish Ravn could avoid this. The pilots were skilled but there was quite a bit of turbulence."
Cons: "We missed our flight because customs in San Fran airport was severely under staffed. The tunnel to get in didn’t have lighting, people had to use flash lights on the phone. We had a connecting flight from once we landed in San Fran from Puerto Vallarta, maybe there should be an expedited line"
Pros: "Arrived 30 min early"
Cons: "Having a gate at ORD. Waited on runway for 1.5 hours"
Pros: "I love the selection of movies and TV. So easy and fun to travel. The seats are also comfortable for economy class and decent leg room. I love this airline."
Pros: "It was the most uncomfortable flight I have ever taken. Plus most of the passengers were walking constantly up and down the aisle and stepping or bumping into me. I sat in the last row of the plane."
Pros: "We flew to and from with Alaska for our honeymoon and they were awesome."
Pros: "I liked how fast the flight was"
Cons: "Getting delayed due to whether (out of anyone’s control) but the flight attendants weren’t that professional, one flight attendant snapped at a guest. And the one on the speaker had a hard time forming sentences."
Pros: "TV monitors for every seat was great. The selections were good and varied."
Cons: "We sat in the back of the cabin and the two female flight attendants were talking during the whole 6-hour, red eye flight. Hard to sleep and hard to read to pass the time. Very rude, inconsiderate, and unprofessional."
Cons: "My luggage is somewhere else and I have fishing trip tomorrow and no cloths to keep warm."
Pros: "Movies"
Cons: "Bathroom was disgusting, there wasn’t a trash so people threw their hand towels on the floor."
Pros: "First class travel on express jets."
Cons: "First class travel is limited to bigger seat and snacks. I think hot towellete could be very nice."
Pros: "Crew kept very calm and courteous during a delay."
Cons: "There were a ton of angry people about the amount of delays that happened today. There was no reason given and it caused issues."
Pros: "The crew were nice and accommodating."
Cons: "The seat was not comfortable, my back was hurting from a very short 2hr flight."
Cons: "We stayed one hour in the plane without any reason"
Pros: "crew made me feel guilty to change my paid for seat so a married couple could sit together and I was solo"
Cons: "choice of snacks or food"
Pros: "Great film selection. Wonderful food and drinks. Airline staff quickly arranged for us to catch two more flights when there was a delay."
Cons: "There was a long delay and we missed our connection. We were re-routed so in total we had four flights in 24 hours, which was exhausting."
Pros: "I was so impressed with the American Airlines staff they really worked with us due to the cancellation and the weather coming they were very professional and helped us in any way we could"
Pros: "Loved the food that was served for my flight and the complementary beer."

Pros: "I like that I made it home alive."
Cons: "Everything about Departing and arriving was a Poor experience. I might not be using this particular airline again. 4 Airlines now on my list of do not use."
Pros: "Everything else was fine"
Cons: "Cold air blowing in my face that whole trip, crew didn't help"
Cons: "The actual flight was fine. It was the delay, followed by what seemed changing info on when it was happening. Every 30 minutes it changed. Five minutes before the flight, the info board said it had been moved to 9:40pm and was changed from Gate 3 to Gate 30, a very long distance to get to. However t"
Pros: "This plane has more space than larger plane, was more comfortable."
Pros: "United staff were ready in Panamá to handle the missed connections, with onward booking already handled and hotel vouchers ready for distribution upon deplaning."
Cons: "Late boarding and long wait on runway to be able to take off, thus ensuring connection in Panamá would be missed. Given that one runway was closed due to wind, this is something outside the control of United. Nevertheless, allowing a connecting flight with only 30 minutes between flights would seem to be overly risky, thus any delay upon departure will ensure a missed connection."
Pros: "The flight was fine, no drama. Crew was s great. But damn that is an uncomfortable plane. We were only on it 3 hours and I found the seat to be so short in the seat pan my back and legs were aching an hour in to it. You are really are just pearched on the seat. Also the aisle is extremely narrow. You almost have to walk side ways down it."
Cons: "Mechanical delay on this leg left us in a hot plane on a hot Texas tarmac. We were initially told it would take 15-20 minutes but this incrementally grew to 1-1/2 hours. Even when we were told that we were pushing away from the gate, we didn't move for another 15 minutes. At least tell the truth. Only water offered. Observed flight attendant moving cups along baggage bins.... Don't know if these were the ones he then served water in."
Pros: "Lufthansa was great"
Cons: "TSA in SFO treated us like vermin. Issuing confusing orders and barking at us to come and go. I almost cried that I had returned to this beautiful country to be treated like an unwelcome criminal."
Cons: "Not being able to request a seat on the aisle."
Cons: "Haven’t taken it yet. It’s 2:00 a.m. and I’m waiting for the next available flight at 8 a.m."
Pros: "Cabin crew were polite and hard working"
Cons: "The fact that flight leaves gate on time and sits on tarmc for 15 minutes. This would be listec as on time departure but is a fraud. United has too few machines that work too slowly to tag bags and get tickets. On ground United staff rude and unpleasant. They are a disgrace to their stockholders! Also Newark Airport is decrepit and the United Terminal is run down with poor services that arte ovrpriced and dirty."
Pros: "Finally, got a plane and arrived in SLO!"
Cons: "Flight delayed 2 hours: no information, no explanation. In fact, all cooperating connecting United flights were 2 hours late, not just mine"
