ZuleikaFlew with United Airlines-Nov 2026
I liked having TSAPreCheck ready, United Airlines and making sure to check the shops before TSA if wanting to buy memorable items!
MarcFlew with American Airlines-Oct 2026
Arrive at the gate before boarding time starts because the small plane can be full boarded in less than ten minutes.
ShuheiFlew with American Airlines-Sep 2026
the traffic in Atlanta is insane, leave early!
SharonFlew with United Airlines-Oct 2026
Arrive at the airport at least two (2) hours before departure. TSA in Houston was a chokepoint.
RobertFlew with American Airlines-Sep 2026
Check where inbound plane is coming from, since routes have changed from past practices
MarcFlew with American Airlines-Jun 2026
In the Charlotte airport, eat at the Midwood Smokehouse: great pulled pork say, and try Old Mecklenberg beer, a local german style brewery. They make Altbier and Kölsch! The. AA terminal at La Guardia airport is bramd new, with great food and shopping. Free bus between airport and Jackson Heights subway station. Subway is much faster than. a cab to. Manhattan. Only problem is finding. the elevators at a station or on tne subway platform!
RobertFlew with American Airlines-Jul 2026
Get there early so you can enjoy some of at the great restaurants at the airport before you board.
BelindaFlew with Alaska Airlines-Jul 2026
I prefer Oakland over SFO. I liked the self-check for my suitcase for the bag drop . Getting through security went smoothly. It would have been really nice to know my boarding time was 1/2 hour later than on my app. I only found out that boarding was 1/2 hour late after rushing to the gate. I would have had time to go to my airport club had I known. Bag pick up at JFK was fast once I got to baggage claim, that was great
Verified travelerFlew with British Airways-Jun 2026
Keep checking on AA flight status frequently. Do not leave home till the flight status is confirmed.
Verified travelerFlew with JetBlue-Aug 2026
My most frequent trip is between JFK and SFO on Jet Blue. Food options at SFO are amazing, but expensive. Sadly, getting through security at JFK is a hassle and takes an incredibly long time. Give yourself plenty of time. Also, when I arrived at JFK around midnight, there was no place to get food and I was disappointed to learn that I needed to take the air train all the way out to Howard Beach to get an Uber.
Verified travelerFlew with JetBlue-Aug 2026
The seats at JetBlue are old and uncomfortable. Make sure that you check that your assigned seat can recline if you have health issues or spine pain.
NoahFlew with Alaska Airlines-Aug 2026
JFK airport was really hard to navigate, and security line took nearly 45 minutes; we nearly missed our connection to fly from JFK to San Paulo, Brazil.

No need to arrive too early. TSA is a breeze.

Its a short flight and you dont wait very long to get your checked bags but it is a haul to get to ground transpiration from the terminal. Also, Jet blue terminal in Boston is meh...
MichelleFlew with American Airlines-Mar 2026
Lots of construction going on so plan accordingly and don't get too comfortable in one spot. All the times I've departed from Dallas, I had several gate changes prior to departure. And they aren't close by. :)
AlissaFlew with United Airlines-Mar 2026
Make sure you opt in for all notifications just in case you have multiple delays in your flight like I did.
Verified travelerFlew with Spirit Airlines-Mar 2026
Charge all of your devices before boarding as there will won’t be any places to charge while on the aircraft.
JanaFlew with American Airlines-Apr 2026
Get there early. It is a long walk to the D1 gate.
Verified travelerFlew with Alaska Airlines-Apr 2026
As I said the terminal for Alaska at JFK is horrendous -- new but very , very large with long distances to get to the gates and not enough automatic walking ways for a terminal of this size -- and 3 escalators?? Really! If you can get a direct flight from another airline I would definitely change but they may be the only one around.
MFlew with Alaska Airlines-Apr 2026
Newark terminal B is probably the worst in the country. Allow yourself plenty of time a patience
JeffFlew with Delta-Dec 2025
Worth being a SkyMiles member for the free checked bag Plan extra time at Miami, the walk from the MIAMover to the check in was very far and the moving sidewalks were not functioning.
BillFlew with Japan Airlines-Dec 2025
Take the first flight out in the morning. Always your best chance!
RichardFlew with American Airlines-Feb 2026
Because the CLT to NY flights are short distance/ duration I have noticed that they are often the first to be delayed or cancelled when there are weather issues. The worst airline for this route is American who seems to always have issues with crews timing out, lost baggage, mechanical delays, etc. AA is usually one of the worst carriers for cancelling/ delaying flights. I find the Delta flights to be the most reliable and timely. However, Delta flys smaller planes and so there is limited space for carry-on bags. You may have to check your bag at the gate and pick it up in the jetway afterwards. In terms of airports, the Charlotte airport has been undergoing a renovation for many years and is still a mess with many of the moving sidewalks not moving. Airport parking is particularly challenging and so you need to allow plenty of time before your flight. In NY, it really depends on time of day and weather. LGA is close to Manhattan, but it is the first to be impacted by weather. The LGA airport is modern and renovated. I generally prefer it to JFK and EWR unless there is bad weather.
GraceFlew with Delta-Feb 2026
We were early arriving so had to sit on the runway for a bit. Remember that you aren’t really supposed to use the lavatories in those situations as it’s an “active runway” situation, so plan to use the bathroom if you need to prior to descent.
Verified travelerFlew with ANA-Dec 2025
Give adequate time of more than 2 hours for your connection in Chicago O’Hare .. The terminals are not that far apart but still if it’s checked out and check in again process that involves TSA security screening again , 2 hours may not be enough ..

As bad as it gets. Sign in at one terminal (40 minutes), walk to another terminal to go through security (1 hour+), then take a shuttle through taxiing planes on the tarmac to your flight's terminal (up to another hour). Absurd.. Give yourself a whopping 4 hours or you could miss your flight.
MichaelFlew with United Airlines-Nov 2025
United refundable fare with bag check makes life easy for big trip. Otherwise, no bag check, moderate carry-on go cheap as possible. Grab food and beverage at airport to make flight enjoyable and kill time. It's really just a long cab ride
ElenaFlew with United Airlines-Jun 2025
Construction in the terminal so allow for extra time in SFO. Very easy finding luggage and getting outside at Newark. Also, this time, took the Express Bus into Manhattan - $25 is a good price, though the bus arrived 20 minutes after the scheduled time.
MathewFlew with Delta-Jun 2025
Make sure to pack 2-3 days of clothing in a carryon.

For budget travelers, this is a good airline. Stick to the luggage dimensions, bring a snack and a book or entertainment that does not require WiFi and you will get to you destination for a great price.
MaryannFlew with United Airlines-Mar 2025
Bring your own food with you. Airport and airline food is expensive and you WILL need something to eat on such a long flight.

MollieFlew with Spirit Airlines-Feb 2025
You have to weigh your bags yourself, there is no assistant to help check bags like on delta, so it takes longer and is more of a pain. Long lines, count on an extra few minutes. Other than that, everything was fine.

New York JFK is massive and the signage there for connecting flights is not so good as you need to travel via AirTrain between the different terminals and the signage for this is missing in some places, making it confusing as to which way to go.

1. **Book Early**: Secure your tickets in advance to get better deals. 2. **Check for Deals**: Keep an eye out for promotions or discounts on flights. 3. **Pack Light**: Consider packing light to avoid extra baggage fees. 4. **Arrive Early**: Reach the airport with ample time for check-in and security. 5. **Stay Updated**: Monitor your flight status for any potential delays or changes. 6. **Comfort Items**: Bring essentials like snacks, a neck pillow, and entertainment for the flight. 7. **Stay Hydrated**: Remember to drink water during the flight to stay refreshed. 8. **Plan Transportation**: Arrange transportation from the airport in Newark to your final destination in advance.

My experience with Delta is always pleasant. My return flight #1426 from ATL to RIC was very delayed with departure and landing. It also took a substantial amount of time for baggage claim. It was already late at night, so the delays made for a very long day. I did not get home until after 12 midnight.

My experience with Delta is always pleasant. My return flight #1426 from ATL to RIC was very delayed with departure and landing. It also took a substantial amount of time for baggage claim. It was already late at night, so the delays made for a very long day. I did not get home until after 12 midnight.

I had a great flight with delta. Plane was clean and the staff was nice, I would fly again with delta.

After flying with Qatar Airways and Kenya Airlines. Delta leaves a lot to be desired

A 6hr delay is going to put a damper on all reviews. It was almost impossible to get into the Delta club also. Zero conveyance. I could not use my status for anything. Makes me wonder why am I loyal to delta?

I fly coach so there is always the feeling everyone up front has more space than me. Everything was fine - on time which is the most important thing!

Great overall experience and use of the Delta One lounge was amazing!

I used by Skymiles to upgrade to First so that I could comfortably work using my laptop. But WiFi was intermittent and unavailable for long periods. I feel like I wasted 70,000 miles :(

Great as one can be for a one connection 6 hour flight

I upgraded to first. Quick and easy boarding. Comfortable seat with power and a nice IPA.

Flight was delayed due to needing a replacement flight crew. Delta changed the aircraft type in Detroit. One hour delay. But once in the air, good flight

Check in went smoothly. Flight attendant who was assigned my area barely paid any attention to me! She acted as though she was extremely busy and flustered. Maybe she was new?! I told her to change the language on my screen, she said she’d come back to help me but never did so I was able to solve the problem on my own. She came back and said she’d made adjustments on her end. Highly doubt it because I found the setting to change the language! Also, I noticed everyone was eating before we landed so I pushed my help button and she never came so I got up to find her to ask her if I can have breakfast. She said they are not serving breakfast but I can have a sandwich. Yes, that was her response as I saw everyone eating breakfast!!!

United staff were very communicative, the new starlink Wifi is amazing as I was able to work easily.

Starlink internet made the flight time shrink and I was able to work.

Seats are made for children. An 8 hour flight with tiny seats is more like a cattle car. Lost bags at Rome airport caused a 7 hour delay.

We sat on the tarmac in Denver for over 30 minutes because a plane was in our gate. The pilot kept saying it will just be 5 minutes or less. However, we sat for over 30 minutes. Experiences like this make customers not trust what the pilot is saying.

Waited on tarmac for approximately 15-25 minutes before taking off. When landing, the time it took to taxi to our gate was the also 15-25 minutes.

Waited on tarmac to take off for approximately 15-25 minutes. When landing, the taxi to our gate took a similar amount of time. This happened on both of my United flights.

The plane was so old. I paid a ridiculous amount to fly business and there was no internet for six hours! This can't be happening in 2026 and especially in cross country flights where there are a high volume of business travelers.

Tired of being nickel and dimed for every little thing, especially carry-on luggage.

Late start, late arrival and very uncomfortable seats. No legroom, no elbow room because the person next to me was fat. I had to press myself toward the aisle or be rubbing arms with them. As a result, I was bumped every time someone passed in the aisle. But I couldn't get away from the hip encroachment. Who wants to rub hips with an oversized stranger for over 2 hours? I'm not fat, just tall and larger-than-average frame so I need to leg room but it would be nice if other peoples' body parts weren't squeezing under and over the arm of the seating. Why should it cost me so much for simple comfort so United can get a little more profit?

1/2 full flight, nice and comfy flight. On time, good service

Both ways the people in the rear section of the plane were forced to check their carry on bags. I would understand this if the size and number of bags were not limited, but I do not understand why there is not room for one small overhead bag per person, even if the flight is full. I could watch the baggage handlers loading the extra luggage from my window and I’m pretty sure mine wouldn’t have survived undamaged, even though it is new and sturdy.

Entertainment, clean plane and funny pilot over the intercom was excellent… however, gate agent was rude and was probably a Spirit employee before they went bankrupt… there were 3 flight attendants - 2 of them didn’t want to be there the other one was kind and nice… I want you to recognize how you have to compete with Delta or South West airlines or even American Airlines which would choose over you at any given day from here on out. Please treat people respectfully. If you hate working in this industry - go and work somewhere else. The flight was very empty and it shouldn’t be hard to crack a smile once in a while. Very disappointing… I remember flying Jet Blue back in the day from Dulles IAD to LAX and you guys were super cool and fancy and made flying fun again - truly elevated the experience. Don’t become the next most hated airline… you can do better . I want you to succeed…

Free wifi was almost impossible to get, kept dropping the connection

Not good - we boarded and taxied for an hour before they told us there were technical issues with the plane. They told us we were going to need to deplane, parked back at the gate but then didn’t tell us we didn’t have to anymore. There was just a lot of uncertainties with poor communication.

3.5 hour delay because of “mundane” mx issue. Aircraft had to be towed 3 times.

Overall great experience, though my screen for entertainment was not working and I could see that others were.

Jet Blue sevice was good. Just don't understand why they charge for earphones to listen to flight entertainment. Other than that, everything was excellent.

Not having an assigned seat until boarding and then having to check my bag.

Cancelled flight with no specific instructions to get a boarding pass for another flight. The whole flight of people were in line for an hour because there was only 1 person to help at the desk. This was unusual for JetBlue.

Three aircraft in succession experienced maintenance issues, resulting in a six-hour delay. The original aircraft required replacement, and the substitute aircraft arrived more than two hours late. Passengers boarded that aircraft, only to be told later to deplane due to maintenance concerns. We then boarded a different aircraft that had arrived at the gate, only to be instructed to deplane once again because it, too, experienced maintenance issues. After hours of delays and two separate boarding and deplaning events, passengers were directed to a third aircraft departing from a different terminal and had to rush across the airport to make that flight. That was the only aircraft that ultimately departed without incident. Of course, passenger safety must come first, and I am grateful these issues were identified before takeoff. However, when three aircraft in succession require maintenance attention and passengers are repeatedly boarded before those issues are discovered, it raises legitimate concerns about American Airlines' preventive maintenance procedures and aircraft readiness checks. One aircraft with an unexpected issue can happen. Three aircraft in a row, combined with multiple boarding and deplaning events, suggests a pattern that warrants review. American Airlines needs to take a hard look at both its maintenance practices and its decision-making process for boarding passengers before determining that an aircraft is ready for service.

New internet speed is awesome! Great flight and staff. Also most efficient and fast baggage handling ever in Philly!

The wifi was broken. The temperature on the plane was quite warm, and my air vent didn't seem to blow anything but warm air. The flight attendants were nice.

Delayed and WIFI was not working for most of flight.

I am generally an American Airlines loyalist but this flight was not good. I was seated in an aisle seat and the gentleman in front of my had his seat fully reclined which made it impossible to work on my laptop, eat or drink.. The gentleman in the middle seat was watching something on his phone without headphones.

Disorganized boarding. Mandatory to gate check bags. Curt flight staff. No space for cabin bag, even when I was in first class.

Like all of the flights I took to get down to Dallas. They were delayed

They are still charging me after taking 466 and 833 for round trip from AR to to Bradley airport from 19 to 21. Then poor experience. Am hurt and I will say it on social media. Please stay away from this airline. I see in my bank account they are still taking 644. Am trying to stop it. I used to fly United airlines and I suggest that if you don't want extra charges and good service you go back there. American airlines delayed my flight again and I was late for my meeting, no recompensation but charging me over and over.

Good communication at the gate and very nice crew in the flight

Unfortunately we had turbulence because of the weather and when we were about to land in Miami, the pilot brought the aircraft quickly up because another plane was in its way. The pilot was remarkable however we weren’t told until we started our second descent. Our flight was GOOD. The flight from Miami to Hartford was packed, so many people. It was late at night and we were tired and just wanted to be home. Obviously, the aviation staff preformed well.

Airport staff was terrible, they made up excusses on how I can get to my terminal, I missed my flight then had to pay for A whole other flight! Worst experience ever, even A employee also loughed and said yea sorry for our poor training.

THE BARE METAL SEATS AT THE FRONTIER GATE IN CLEVELAND HOPKINS AIRPORT ARE DISGUSTING...BUT JUST A LITTLE BETTER THAN THE SEAT MATERIALS ON THE PLANE! THE "COMMERCIAL" ANNOUNCMENT PUSHING THE CREDIT CARD DEAL IS OBNOXIOUS AND UNWELCOME! THE VOLUME OF THE OFFER ANNOUNCMENET BLARES LOUDLY AND IS FILLED WITH A HYPED UP, CANNED SCRIPT. BOTTOM LINE IS THE FLIGHT AND THE CREW WERE VERY GOOD EXCEPT FOR THE ABOVE.

Maximizing profits is one way to a healthy bottom line, the other is repeat business and referrals from satisfied customers. Frontier has clearly chosen the former. One of many examples: Family emergency required me to cut trip short. Headed to the airport to fly standby for the return trip I had already paid for (yes I understand prices vary with demand etc). Was told there is no standby and that I would need to pay for, despite what it's called by the company, what amounts to a new ticket. And surprise surprise, there turned out to be dozens of empty seats on that flight. To say nothing of the sleazy third and fourth party resellers, the flight/ticket insurance I elected and thought I had paid for that mysteriously wasn't there when I needed it before I left, and on and on with third world sleazy management decisions. The inflight coffee (that I had to pay for) was very good though.

You have to be super careful when purchasing as *everything*, a carryon or a sip of soda, has a fee. They relentlessly chip away at you with surcharges and extra costs … and it’s not always clear what you are getting when you buy your ticket. Will not fly them again. And … crew were not friendly until off boarding .. like they don’t like working for Frontier.

Air was off while waiting on the runway and the temperatures became very uncomfortably hot. Flight attendants were very loud and rude the entire flight.

I booked tickets from San Diego to Cincinnati months in advance to attend my sister’s wedding, a wedding where I was serving as the officiant. At 10:00 PM the night before my 6:00 AM flight (just 8 hours before departure), I received an alert that my first leg to Denver was delayed, causing me to miss my connecting flight to Cincinnati. When I called Frontier customer service, they informed me that they couldn't get me on any other flight that would get me there in time for the Saturday wedding, let alone the rehearsal dinner. Because I had a critical role in the wedding, I was forced to buy a last-minute ticket on another airline for three times the original price, costing me well over $1,000 extra. Even with the emergency flight, I still missed the rehearsal dinner entirely. When I spoke with Frontier, they agreed to refund my original ticket, but showed zero care or accountability for the massive financial burden and distress they caused. Their "compensation" for causing me to spend an extra $1,000+ and miss an irreplaceable family event? A $75 Frontier voucher. Frontier completely dropped the ball. Their customer service showed zero empathy, and their reliability is non-existent. I will never fly Frontier again, and no one else should either if they actually need to get where they want to go. Tip for anyone flying from Denver to Cincinnati: Avoid Frontier connecting flights or layovers at all costs, especially for time-sensitive events. Book direct flights with an airline that actually offers reliable customer support and rebooking options when delays occur.

When I spoke with Frontier, they agreed to refund my original ticket, but showed zero care or accountability for the massive financial burden and distress they caused. Their "compensation” for causing me to spend an extra $1,000+ and miss an irreplaceable family event? A $75 Frontier voucher. Frontier completely dropped the ball. Their customer service showed zero empathy letting me know that it was Frontier who was the real victim by refunding my ticket price, and their reliability is non-existent. I will never fly Frontier again, and I strongly advise anyone who actually needs to arrive at their destination on time for an important event to book with literally any other airline.

Flight delayed and missed connection. Next available flight was a 10 hour delay.

It got me to my destination? However we were an hour delayed departing, and we never received any updates or notifications from staff. Poor communication and customer service.

Pro: The stuff was great. Friendly, patient and caring. Our seat row was clean. The bath room was clean. Our flights were close to on time. Con: The leg room is too small. No blankets or pillows. No entertainment devices at all. I can’t remember to have a food choice. I would fly again with frontier for short distances.
