Terrible delay today. also, waited 90 minutes for baggage to unload in Seattle earlier in the week.

Not having a five hour delay with little notice! The crew was very kind, though, and just as tired as we passengers were. The flight didn't depart until nearly 1 am...and no reason was ever given.

Great flight from Seattle to Phoenix and to Chicago-Midway from Phoenix

Southwest like most American domestic airlines, is a mediocre airline. But it is among the cheapest. Oh well.

Very smooth checking in our luggage with a super pleasant SW agent. I enjoyed a fun entertaining movie.

I really like open seating. I hate that I've heard this is going away. This is one of the unique things that makes Southwest my goto choice.

They sent us to an airport way out of our way because they canceled our flight with no reason

I love no assigned seats and bags fly free. If Private Equity gets their way and forces Southwest to change they will be everyone else and I will stop being loyal to them. DON'T CHANGE YOUR BUSINESS MODEL!!!

Left GEG had the first flight of the morning and couldn’t leave due to broken plane then got redirected on to another flight which then I missed my connecting flight so they rescheduled my connecting flight then that one took off 3 1/2 hours late my 4 1/2 hour day turned into a 12 1/2 hour day

The plane was not very clean. Lots of napkins and kleenex on the floor and in the seat pocket

SeaT was a mess, couldn't get our wheelchair service. Had to walk all the way to N. Once we found our flight. Check in and baggage was terrible.

I enjoyed the movie selection. I’m glad I saw ahead of time to bring personal ear buds. I don’t normally have them with me and airlines used to give them out.

The best thing were the seats It was too cold most of the time. The food was poor… The eggs were runny and potatoes were cold. The last time I flew first class we had a TV screen to watch movies but not this time The last time we had free alcohol, but not this time

My seat row didn’t have tray tables which made it pretty difficult to get comfortable on a four hour flight. Good experience outside of that, though.

Would not mind having movie options an available like Delta, but is not necessary. Did not have food, so cannot appropriately rate that section.

You an Kayak offered travel insurance. I had to cancel are flights which I well say was easy an I got my money back. BUT not the travel insurance Kayak or X cover has keep the money. So why I never went on the fligt I cancel way early. I know one thing I'll never go to kayak again.

Flight attendance were good my luggage was lost . Noone really told us what happened hoping I get it back. Disappointed!!!

I was in second from last seat. My luggage was in row 15. I asked the stewardess if I could move up before the plane lands. There were 3 empty rows. She went on to explain to me, how no one was sitting there when the plane took off and there was no education on the exit doors. Blah, blah, blah. I said ok, S he kept over explaining to me. So whatever if that’s the rules. She went in the back to the other 2 stewards to tell them the entire conversation I just had with her. Not only could I hear her so could all the back rows of the plane. This was very unprofessional and inappropriate.

Service was excellent. Staff at check in cleared hurdles for me so I could travel with my service animal.

The flight was great but the return tickets were not doing well in their new format took 3 times to get through tsa, horrible last one on plane and stressing !!

Crew completed ignored our aisle when giving snacks and coffee

The WiFi on the plane was out. I also thought movie options were lacking.

Flight was delayed from San Diego due to being overweight for weather conditions. We missed our connecting flight to our final destination due to the delay, as well as the connecting flight leaving before the scheduled departure time. We missed the connection within 10 - 15 minutes. We were booked on a later flight arriving 7 hours later. There were 7 passengers sharing the same originating and connecting flight.

Horrible, mismanaged ground issue resulting in a long delayed, next flight left early, waiting extra 7 hours in the airport, screen did not work

The temperature on the flight was unbearably hot and they were unable to serve waters and did t make any adjustments. This impacted us both when leaving, we pushed away from the gate but didn’t taxi for takeoff for awhile then arrived ‘early’ yet were stuck in the plane for longer than we should have been.

Delayed, then set on termac before taking off for 45 minutes. After landing had to sit on termac for another 30-40 minutes. Total disaster of a flight

The flights were on time; all went as expected which is a big positive! No delays! There was no food or drink service in any legs, which I understand due to the short flight time.

They announced a mechanical issue prior to boarding Said it was fixed, we boarded Waited Then learned it was not fixed Had to deplane and go to new gate Bought wifi on plane and it never worked

Coach seating is debilitating, neither my husband or I can walk the following day

It was nice having the whole row to myself and was nice to get in earlier than expected

Flight delayed, last seat on the plane, no arrival Gate available due to the plane departing late

Really old place. Not as clean as it should be, tray tables needed better cleaning. The items, trays and some other items need to b6 engineered. Anything task you or crew may do is incredibly load, seriously engineer for quiet smooth, easy. Just opening and closing the tray table is actually dangerous and can easily injure a finger. I'm sure it happens as it happened to me! First time I used United and likely will be the last!

Flight be on time would be a good start. Then train your flight attendants to be attentive and friendly. This time they completely forgot my row for the measly snack! United, do better!

Our flight was delayed several Times due to mechanical issues. Although I understand this may happen at times, it was very inconvenient and we had to book a hotel for an overnight stay. We were traveling with my 3-yo grandson and waiting at the airport from noon until 6:30pm with no reassurance that our next rescheduled flight would depart, we had to decide what’s best for him. A day later, I found out that I may be able to demand compensation if my flight is delayed more than 4 hours. I will hav to read the fine print next time.

United needs to step up their game. Delayed flight leaving Seattle, San Francisco. Older aircraft, not very comfortable.

Had to cancel first flight because Airporter Bus took over 3 hrs to get to airport which resulted in an extra $378 dollar fare . Is there anyway I can be reimbursed for initial fare since it was not my fault? Sent from my iPhone EJ Ledet

Plane was was better than th YVR to ORD flight but was a fraction of the distance. Fly your better planes on longer distance flights.

In this flight we had selected seating for our family in the middle of the plane in a 2x2 format. The airline changed them to the very back row of the plane and split them to 3x1. Why pay for seats that allow seat selection if the airline will just move them to the worst seats in the plane?

The flight was canceled. Got rebooked to Chicago and when we arrived our luggage where to there. They were going to our original destination the day after. They would not deliver them to our house. We had to go pick them up.

Upgrade planes to have larger overhead bins, especially on this popular route and first class. Easy flight to Chicago, good service in first class. Can't wait for seatback entertainment to be brought back. I like the free wifi and messaging with T-Mobile. Although, the tray tables are not big enough to work even on a small laptop - so why is it called "business" class? Flight attendant said that the flight was too short to even serve water. I've flown that route several times, and that is the first time I ever heard that. No chargers in the seats. Rough landing.

It was delayed a lot longer than 10 minutes because we arrived 45 minutes beyond our original arrival time. We sat on the tarmac waiting to take off for a very long time. The seats and entertainment options on American were not good and very limited. The ability to text via WiFi for free was nice, but that seems to be standard on mainline flights. Also, gold status really does not do anything for you anymore.

I paid extra for what I thought was leg room and it certainly was not. I had a very cramped experience on my flight from Dallas to Detroit and it was the section right behind first class section. I did however have an amazing flight from Atlanta to Dallas on the initial outbound flight.

Ninth consecutive American flight I have been on that was delayed

I rated the experience "mediocre" because of the 2 hour delay in take off. This is the 4th flight from DFW on AA where there was a delay and in one of the instances (after 13 delays), the flight was cancelled. I understand weather but for the March 18th flight, there was no weather issue in Dallas or Detroit. I called Concierge Key and they were wonderful, booking me on a later flight in case my flight was cancelled. I have flown with American for many years and never has there been this consistent pattern of delays. Very disappointing.

My carry on baggage was damaged. Entire trip, I had to carry the baggage. When complained to the boarding crew, they got mad at me and still asked me to valet check in the cabin baggage. Rude boarding crew!!!

Experience was good. We were delayed in leaving by 15 mins because the flight was waiting on a family that was late in getting to the gate. Food and drink options were as expected. I highly recommend checking in ahead of time using the airline’s app so that it’s quicker to get your luggage tags as soon as you arrive at the terminal. No more waiting in long lines!

It took way too long to diagnose and solve the problem of a broken crew member cabin seat. Though compensation for the volunteer who left the flight was very kind.

The AA staff person who checked our bags was curt and almost rude. The FA also seemed unhappy doing her job. Overall it was like riding the school bus back in grade school.

It was one of my worst flight ever. First they were changing the gate for at least 4 times, changing from gate D7 to D12 to D44. Considering the size of the Miami Airport, we are talking about long distance and the train at the airport was not working. Then the flight was delayed around one hour. Then finally we boarded into the plane and when everybody was seated, there was an announcement that there is an issue with one of the tire of the plane, so we all had to get out of the plane with our belongings, to replace the tire. So we had around 2.5-hour delay

American Airlines initially postponed the flight. Then they cancelled it an rescheduled us on a flight that would take over 24 hours with multiple stops. They then changed this flight to a reasonable alternative the next day which they later cancelled and replaced with a flight that would take off with an additional 16 hour delay. They blamed weather but I noticed (at 4am) that Delta had direct flights from Charlotte to Detroit. I went on line. Booked it and was in Detroit buy 9am. The interesting thing is they did a similar thing to a family member just 2 days earlier. I don't think I will fly American unless I have to.
