Airline reviews

We experienced delays in small increments that added up to more than an hour. At the gate, staff showed little concern and compared our delay with the inbound flight’s two-hour tarmac wait, which didn’t address our situation. Once onboard, the flight attendants seemed tired and unfriendly. I understand delays are frustrating for everyone, but passengers shouldn’t feel blamed for them. During the flight, a bright light above the emergency exit stayed on. It was concerning, and no one explained it or offered passengers the option to move. After landing, we waited about 30 minutes on the tarmac for a gate, then waited again for an agent to connect the plane to the terminal. From the Reagan gate staff to the cabin crew and RDU personnel, the service felt dismissive throughout. Overall, this was a stressful trip and a very disappointing customer-service experience

delayed take-off, then had to circle in air for awhile, wi-fi did not work, then the cabin got extremely hot multiple times and the luggage was at wrong carousel at LGA. In addition, plenty of overhead space so they checked bags too early. Horrible flight.

WiFi only works on about 75% of my Delta flights. I rarely fly SW, but their WiFi works 100% of the time and is easy to connect. On my DL flight from DCA to BNA today, I try to connect to WiFi for about 30 minutes, but I gave up. I have a lot of work to do, and I lost two hours today. Very frustrating.

Flight was delayed for about an hour but overall good experience

The gentleman at the gate I think his name is RIE was exceptional

This flight was no comparison to our prior flight. I'm thinking it all has to do with the age of the aircraft.

2 of the seats in row 31 the entertainment system was not working, and one seat the tray table did not go all the way down. Flight arrived early and departed on time which was great.

Waited at the usual crowded gate at DCA where one ends up standing up because there aren't enough seats.

Delayed take-off. Very small plane so very scary with lots of bumps during the flight. Would never fly Delta on short flights in small 80 seaters plane again! Felt relieved when landed.

715PM departure was 2.5 hours late. Received hotel & food voucher but after we already booked a room. Entire team just seemed like they were 2-3 steps behind in execution, and notifcations.

Good experience with this flight. Boarding was smooth with no issues. The short flight was good with quick drink & snack service. Nice easy way to get back from DC.

Flight is delayed by more than an hour without any reason, the jet blue gates kept changing every 20 mins and there is no proper communication. No ear phones provided in flight, there is a screen with entertainment but what is the use, I have earphones but the console has outdated audio connections, no usb C or bluetooth, they are living 15 years behind

A nightmare. Scheduled flight delayed 2 hours then cancelled because pilot timed out . Unable to find another pilot. Really?! Weather certainly a factor, but JetBlue seemed totally unprepared for the chaos that ensued when flight routes were cancelled. More cancelled flights, finally many of us who had been bumped from other flights were allowed to board a Boston bound plane around 3:00am, delay after delay, sat on tarmac for another half hour while pilot dealt with weight distribution issues (?), arrived in Boston 4:30. Crew were wonderful- same attendants all day and night and they were exhausted. Fortunately for me and my son that Boston was our final destination, not so lucky for many who missed connecting flights.

The flight was delayed 14 hours and communication was very poor. No one seemed to know what was happening and the gate agent was trying to help people for several flights. She was by herself trying to help 100s of people.

JetBlue worker, Blythe, was so amazing at the DCA counter. If it wasn’t for her, I’m not sure we would’ve made it through. Please thank her!

On time, friendly attendants, quick wheelchair assistance and help checking in bags. Also appreciated change in seats, more forward to make it easier for my 97 year old mother to board and exit the plane. Thank you, JetBlue!

Flight was on time and smooth. Customer service was decent

They forced me to check my hand luggage at the gate.

Still hasn’t left. Why are you asking how it was?

My flight got delayed and eventually canceled, then rescheduled. I and several others had a connection from Boston to Paris and asked several times if we would make it. They assured us we would and then rebooked us mid flight without our consent and closed doors early even though they said they communicated we were a bit delayed. We got stranded in Boston and I opted with being rebooked for a different connection to France since they refused to pay for a Hotel. I've now been in Europe for 5 days and still haven't recieved my bags. There was absolutely no urgency for the fact that I'm in a foreign country with absolutely no change of clothes or any of my medication. Such an overwhelming and frustrating experience.

I have generally had positive experiences with American Airlines (outside a handful of delayed flights), which is why I wanted to share this feedback constructively. On my recent flight, my travel experience was extremely uncomfortable because my seat mate significantly encroached into my assigned seat space for the duration of the flight. As a result, I was forced to sit partially sideways, with much of my shoulder and upper body extending into the aisle. Unfortunately, my back still hurts from maintaining that awkward position.I recognize that this is a sensitive and challenging issue for airlines and cabin crews to address. Everyone deserves to travel with dignity and respect, and I understand that individual circumstances can vary. However, fairness also requires that all passengers have reasonable access to the seat space they have paid for. When one passenger's use of space substantially impacts another passenger's ability to sit safely and comfortably, there should be a practical solution available.I appreciate the complexities involved, but I hope American Airlines will continue exploring ways to ensure that all passengers can travel comfortably and equitably. This experience detracted significantly from what should have been a routine flight.

Flight was delayed which isn’t the airline’s fault, but the communication around it was terrible. I left the lounge to show up at the gate to board at the time in my app, and the flight in front of mine was still boarding and the inbound plane hadn’t even taken off yet. Delays were slow to show up in my app. Improved communication could have let me have a more pleasant experience in the lounge vs waiting 1.5 hours at the gate.

Overall a good experience, however Wifi was not working on the flight.

We fly American Airlines quite a bit. And we always fly business class when traveling internationally. We were a bit disappointed with the comfort of this particular plane as well as the entertainment options.

Good experience but the snacks are not gluten free, so I cannot eat them.

Customer service for American Airlines first class is at an all time low.

AA1537 the AC was not working properly. It was very hot and uncomfortable.

It was a horrible snow storm, but updates were inconsistent and the app never displayed a remotely accurate time or gate until very close to boarding.

The seats are so small and we are average size people. We paid for emergency row for the leg room but the seats are tiny.

Flight was delayed and American failed to hold my connecting flight for 5 minutes to let me board after running through CLT to get to the gate. The plane was still at the gate. Gate agent could not have cared less
