I need it a wheelchair which was provided right away was a great experience whit Austrian Airlines .

Hospitality and service of the staff were excellent. Food was good. The seat was not as comfortable as the other Airlines that I have experience with.

No way to add a bag without getting in line at the counter, which took at least half an hour. No WiFi.

The preboarding and the gate organizing management was poor, unorganized and mismanaged. While standing in the business line I kept getting ignored and the personnel kept checking in others, right in front of me until I finally spoke up and pointed out their clear signs of ignoring me while patiently waiting to be checked in. Once checked in the gate the personnel kept chit-chatting and not managing which group is to board, being totally nonchalant, unorganized and behaving amateur-like . Very unprofessional and unlike the quality the Austrian Airlines brand otherwise provides. The crew on the plane are always fantastic and the best. What a shame the crew on the ground was so mediocre.

Excellent flight. The crew was exceptionally attentive and organized. Attention to details is unmatched.

Great! They got my vegetarian meal right, flight was comfortable, they helped store my heavy luggage. Pleasant crew and flight staff.

I did wish they would give us the entire little bottle Bailey's instead of just have 1/2 bottle at a time

They had me unpack a handbag 2 lbs overweight into another handbag 8 lbs underweight for a Bible.

One thing I really liked about Austrian Airlines was that the flight attendants were very kind, and the in-flight entertainment offered many choices. One thing that could be improved is the meal service, since only a vegetarian option was offered — it would be better to have at least two choices

Business class is not worth it. Not comfortable and old plane with no privacy or enough space unless you on the single seats

Some of the rudest flight crew I have encountered in over 40 years of flying. Despite pre-ordering a vegetarian meal, the only options provided included meat, with no other choices or substitutes offered. Additionally, the sound on the entertainment system was not working. With flight delays had only 20 minutes to make it to next boarding gate and after running most of the way made it to flight with 2 minutes to spare Will never fly SAS again and I am looking for partial refund for false advertisement.

I feel SAS is the only airline that does not let you choose your seats when you're checking in, and so we were forced into two middle seats and it was quite uncomfortable. There are not enough new and quality movies available on the entertainment system. After our inbound SAS flight being canceled with less than 12 hours til departure, the whole experience flyign with SAS wasn't great.

My biggest recurring disappointment is that I buy a pre-assihned seat while pucrhasing the ticket and then when checking in it disappeared and I have to buy it again. That's very disappointing and actually a reason I will actively avoid SAS in the future

More movie options More friendly responds to passengers requests More stops from crew inside airplane

Payed $140 xtra for seat arrangement Did not get the preselected seats neiter outbound nor inbound. Absolutely not worth the xtra money

not good missed my connection SAS did not leave me anywhere near enough time to make my connection. Ended up adding about 10 hours to my travel day

not a good experience they booked my connections with not enough time to catch my connection and it added 10 hours extra travel time to my day. I almost missed my connection on the way there too.

Excellent business class seats, service and food. No airline does it better.

I was unable to rebook a flight booked through cheap flights. Could not rebook, despite premium eco.

in Austria they made me check in my carry on luggage, and it never arrived in JFK... I had medication there on ice that is useless now, I filed a report and they still cant licate my luggage? what kind of joke is this?

Connection times always good online, but not in reality when first leg is delayed (2 out of 2 times this trip).

Worst experience of the 5 flights we took on this vacation. We were in agony by the time we got off the plane because of the lack of cushion in the seats. A sandwich was offered to us within one hour of our takeoff that had pink pork. No gluten-free items were offered for our night meal. Breakfast was given about six hours later well after the sunrise . Strange food was offered: a poached egg that was barely heated and very liquidy, two salads (which is not a normal breakfast food), and a bread bun. We could barely eat any of it. No coffee! I drank green tea. Stewardesses had very nice smiles but never “checked in” with us. Also there was no button on the rooftop to call a steward. We were in terrible pain for more than 3 days after.

I purchased a Polaris ticket. The plane did not have the lie flat seats - I was not notified. I actually can not believe they traded a dif plane and did not notify me or refund monies

⭐ Absolutely AWFUL Experience with United Airlines! If I could give United Airlines ZERO stars, I would. The seats have practically NO legroom, making the flight feel like being crammed into a tin can with nowhere to move. Comfort? Forget about it! And the fees? Absolutely ridiculous! They seem to charge you for EVERYTHING. You pay for your ticket, then get hit with extra charges for things that should be part of a decent flying experience. What’s next, charging passengers for breathing? Flying with United feels less like being a valued customer and more like being a walking wallet. The seats are uncomfortable, the legroom is pathetic, and the constant nickel-and-diming is infuriating. For the price you pay, you would think they could at least provide a little space to stretch your legs and a travel experience that doesn’t leave you feeling ripped off. Do yourself a favor and look at other airlines before booking with United. I certainly won’t be rushing to fly with them again. Absolutely disappointing from start to finish!

My flight from Boston to SFO was fine. Crew was friendly and helpful. Food was mediocre. Fright from SFO to MNL was not as good. My flight attendant was friendly but didn’t seem to have a lot of experience. She seemed overwhelmed. Also, this was the only red eye business class flight I’ve flown which only served dinner 2 hours after takeoff in a 13 hr flight. When I woke up 1 hr before landing, everyone was eating so I assumed bkft was being served. I pushed my button for help and no one came so I approached my flight attendant and she said they don’t serve bkft but she gave me choices for lunch or dinner. I routinely fly business class but I was disappointed with the lack of service and attention I was given on this flight. Also, most airlines will offer a snack or coffee before bkft is served but this was not offered during this flight. Overall, it was disappointing.

It's not United, but TSA security at Terminal A in Newark is a disaster and seriously makes me consider switching to flying out of JFK. The touchless TSA pre-check had a line of over 50 people and the bag screening was so slow that it limited the flow of people through the facial recognition process. It is the only airport that I frequent that has this issue and makes me reconsider whether I should fly out of Newark given the wasted time and frustration it causes. As I said, it is not a United issue but will impact United if people choose to stop utilizing Newark airport because of the poor experience.

The food could be much better. Also very unfortunate that most of business class seats were empty but I could not upgrade.

My email and credit card were used fraudulently for this trip, so no, I did not take this flight.

Not good , late, and long. We came home so late and spent so much time flying around and taxiing

Service was great, we had bad departure and bad arrival due to weather, but that we cannot control. Hats off to the pilot!

I barely made the flight. We had to take a bus to the plane and the plane smelled awfully of body odor. When the flight attendant walked by she smelled of body odor. It was incredibly uncomfortable. Also my luggage did not make it onto this flight and when it finally arrived home the handle of the luggage was all ripped. I will have to purchase a bag again.

They don't really offer snacks or water as much. but it was perfect.

They lost my luggage for five days and did not keep me notified of the progress at all.

It was a good flight. The boarding was smooth and timely managed. They offered in advance to dispatch cabin luggage at no cost. I suggest to add a snack and basic drinks. There was only water provided in the cost of the ticket.

The flight was very good , on time without delays, specially the staff was great!

Delayed, took forever to get luggage out of the flight. Worst short flight within Europe we've had.

The booking itself was the primary problem. The flight should have been 7 AM instead of 8 AM. There was only 20 minutes to get to the next flight and I had to go through passport control. There were 5 stations open to handle 200-300 people and I missed my connecting flight.

The flight was cancelled at 5am, I was forced to have alternate transport home, TERRIBLE EXPERIENCE, I will never fly lufthansa again

My seat electronics did not work so seat stuck in one position for over tens hours unless cushions ,manually removed and chair shoved into different position. It wasAwful. My back is still hurting. Only the flight attendant to move seat which was near impossible. Ten hours of H. No apologies offered. No compensation. It was unreal. worst flight of my life

The person greeting before priority check in assumed I am economy class and send me to the wrong line.

Disappointed as we discovered when checking in at the airport 6hrs before the flight was scheduled, that we had been offloaded onto standby after having purchased these tickets months in advance. We had tried checking in online the night before but were unable to. BA had obviously over sold the seats, and we were told they couldn't confirm we could get on the flight until check in closed. Eventually we did get on but were not seated together. That was a bit of stress we just didn't need.

My experience on this flight was good. The seat I had had a lot of leg room, but it was so close to the aisle that the flight attendants kept bumping into my visual monitor connected to my seat to watch tv.

We never made this flight due to the flight from Barcelona being delayed, which I have reviewed in a separate review. But I can tell you that the Delta Airlines flight that did get us home, I am extremely happy with them and their crew. The only one person that I would praise within the entire part of BA is the girl I spoke to in the call center in India. Who completely understood, was dedicated to a resolution and was a complete realist in the situation. Unlike some of the people who don’t care about the human element and stick you on a flight whenever. She got us home.

You're asking 2 different questions. The flight from Los Angeles to London (and from London to Faro) was on British Airways. Those flights were awful. The app didn't provide detailed information, the WiFi that I paid for didn't work, the form I had to fill out to re-enter the UK was not communicated clearly so I nearly missed my flight. British Airways is significantly behind every other airline I've traveled in every way. American Airlines flight form London to Los Angeles was great. In the future, I will avoid flying British Airways when I can.

Our section of the aircraft in premium economy was very cold. We asked the attendants twice to raise the heat but it never happened. Even with the blanket it was chilly for 10 1/2 hours

Waited until boarding started before saying there was no overhead luggage space on the plane.

It makes no sense for several types of drinks to already be out of stock in the middle of the flight.

Incredible. The upgrade to Business was a phenomenal way to end my trip, beyond grateful for the generosity and hospitality.

The airport experience at check-in, just to drop a bag, was horrible. The were two agents working, two watching. We stood in line for just short of one hour. I asked the agent if this were normal and he said, "Well, yes. Just two computer terminals." No apologies. BA needs to fix this ASAP. Meanwhile, I've moved BA to the very bottom of my booking list.

I declined a wheelchair in Vienna as I was told it was a short walk. However, though I "boarded" the bus first, I was at the back when we got to the plane. There were steps up to the plane and no-one helped except the stewardess as I was near the top of the stairs. She found a better seat for me also.
