Airline reviews

We boarded the plane and were about to take off when we were notified that the tires had to be checked. Upon inspection, they were found to need replacement, so the entire plane had to be deboarded. After we exited the plane, United staff forced us to stay in the gate area by posting "Do Not Exit" signs on the doors connecting the gate area to the terminal. Many of us had already rebooked our flights and had no checked bags, but they told us we could not leave. This seemed inappropriate to hold people under false pretenses. When the agent told us we could leave, I asked them to please take down the "Do Not Exit" signs, as they were misleading. The agent refused, and I told them that it didn't feel right to hold people like that.

Friendly crew, but we were delayed for more than an hour and had to change planes due to maintenance issues.

Good but airlines getting smaller. I didn't like the meal but the service was fine. Flight was fine and luggage arrived. So good.

Reliable, nice crew, I fly often on that flight and I like it all.

The food quality sucks. One must starve if they do not eat flesh Or wheat based products Some variety would be expected. The trivial amount of snacks and or food is inhumane

Efficient, calm when things were delayed and kept us regularly informed of what was happening.

Airbus plane, nice and polite staff, entertainment even as it was a short flight.

Plane temperature was comfortable (not to hot) when boarding and waiting for takeoff.

Michael, our FA was very attentive, even finding me a chocolate brownie from economy class when the dessert selections were all dairy based. ( intolerant, not allergic so don’t usually need to order dairy free)

Cramped seats. Audio jack for the in -flight entertainment was broken.

We traveled with a 7 year old that has autism and he is significantly cognitively delayed. Your site makes it known there are no wagons allowed even if they fold down flat and many autistic children cannot travel without one because they are unable to follow directions or cooperate with walking through the airport and are too big for a stroller. Please consider making exceptions for our special needs children. Also it would be very thoughtful if you’d allow seat selection for no fee for special needs families. The autistic child we traveled with must sit behind another adult in our family because he continuously kicks the seat in front of him and is unable to understand why that is disruptive. We had to pay quite a bit extra to have our 4 seats situated with 2 in row 19 and 2 in row 20 directly behind.

I loved the fact it was on time and it was a smooth flight to my destination.

Service was okay except attendant over served alcohol to passenger and passenger got tipsy and made me uncomfortable

Could not make the flight. No one would help us at all

Great flight, great landing, nice staff. Our seats were a little cramped.

Overall good experience. The wait for baggage at our destination was quite long, but other than that everything was good as expected

Do not fly on WestJet if you have a connection. It failed to integrate with my connecting Delta flight and I almost missed it.

There was a man who was very rude at boarding. On the other hand personal bag measuring box is too small compared to USA airlines,

The process and flight were both smooth and trouble free

Seat back entertainment monitors would be nice. We did enjoy the In-Flight WiFi.

Delays and cancellations. Mechanics weren’t on site. Replacement plane took hours to arrive although it should have arrived within 90 minutes. Flight back was cancelled. Ended up driving over 12 hours and wasting 3 days between everything.

This may have been the hottest cabin temperatures I have experienced on any flight prior to take off lasting for approximately 30 minutes. I am not typically one to complain but I was genuinely worried about the health of several passengers on the flight due to the extreme temperatures including a small toddler.

I got bumped by Qantas to American Airlines incurring a 6 hr layover at lax. I was not happy

Baggage allowances are terrible and the experience of only being allowed one bag and paying so much to take sporting equipment to a known ski area should be addressed.

The flight was on time and crew were nice, seats were tight and there was entertainment available

Worst flight ever. I was suppose to have a 3 1/2 hour layover in Chicago but got to the gate 4 minutes before boarding.

They cancelled my flight and downgraded me to economy and only gave me $250 for the downgrade

The luggage was completely damaged. It was ripped at the corner and the lock was stuck. We had to rip it open.

lounge was the highlight - seats weren't that comfortable - it was a full flight but no complaints

Incompetent crew at the boarding counter. Never flying AA again.

If I’m gonna sit in the 39th row You might as well let me on after the first class passengers Especially if I have no luggage for overhead Just a thought

It was great! Very comfortable plane, crew was great, would definitely take this flight again.

Everything was great except that I wasn’t issued a boarding pass for the second flight so they would not let me into customs until I had said boarding pass. Luckily a gate attendant from another Air Canada flight was able to print one for me so I could go through.

Bad service as well. Another 3hr delayed flight from chicago to Charlotte.

Terrible. 3 missed flights and 24 hours delayed with lost bag and promised $100 compensation from United and absolutely nothing from them…

Minimal food offered (crackers). Had to clean the seat with a wet wipe because of dried food.

TV Bathroom sink was full of water not draining. Counter all wet

unexplained delays rude staff (why do we have these people on board? No one needs the silly isle clogging drink cart) missed important appointments and spent nearly a day in the airport due to delays that were not made known prior to arriving reserved / paid -for seats not kept, but I was not reimbursed Will be writing to my local representatives, you need heavy federal regulations applied to your industry to protest customers.

I was never allowed to get checked in to United (Air Canada was booked but moved to United). Tried to check in amd was told our tickets was suspended. Called United and was told tickets were paid for but there was an unknown issue with Kayak. Called Kayak and could NEVER get to a live person. I WILL NEVER BOOK ANYTHING WITH KAYAK AGAIN! I had to spend another $2300 and book with Hotwire.

Delayed because of some passengers being held up or late coming to security. Not fair to all of us who arrived over 2 hours early
