I ordered the fruit and cheese plate on both outbound and inbound flights, the cheese portion on the inbound flight was half of what it had been on the outbound flight. 🙁
The airline said get there three hours before the flight if you do not have the new Real-ID. Except nobody is at the check in desk and i had to stand in line for 30-45 minutes for somebody to start checking in/accepting baggage.
So much better coming back to Seattle than my trip TO Chicago. This crew actually communicated with the passengers!! Rebecca, one of the crew, stopped and visited with me about sign language. She should get a bonus of some kind!! She's a very neat gal!! It was still warm inside the plane, but it was packed! I still think you could do better than those teeny tiny pretzels! These were spicy and tasted terrible! All in all, still a better ride coming home. Go Seahawks!!
Arrival delay waiting for another flight to be towed and deboarded
Express the need to arrive at the airport more than 2 hours ahead of BOARDING TIME due to super slow security lines at the Lihue airport. 4 ppl in a party of 9 nearly missed the boarding.
This flight was delayed but otherwise comfortable except for some turbulence. The crew was minimally engaged with us but nothing particularly bad in our interaction. The pilot was incomprehensible mumbling whenever he got on the air - honestly, impossible to understand. However, there were two flights that multiple people were trying to connect to that were leaving in 10 minutes after our flight landed (one to Alaska and one to Oregon). The passengers in the back reported to me that they asked the flight attendents to assist them in getting out first to try to make those flights- they reported that they were told that this would not occur because "people aren't so nice". NOBODY from the flight crew announced that there were people who needed to catch a tight connection and to please let them off first. I was in row 16 and when I heard this, I made an announcement myself and worked to get those trying to make those flights out first. Unfortunately, a lot of people were already in the aisles and these folks were slowed getting out. But what is wrong with the Alaska team that they wouldn't help those passengers???? One of the things I love about flying Alaska is that generally the crews are special people who seem to enjoy their jobs (despite the challenges of working with the public) and try to assist however they can. I would have liked to see the Alaska crew make an announcement to assist getting passengers with a tight connection due to the delayed flight out first. I think that Alaska often stands out because of the niceness of the crews, but this was a fail. Honestly, a huge fail. Please do better next time. I really believe in Alaska and fly preferentially on Alaska, but that means standing out from the crowd to do the right thing in being kind when we can.
The plane was in pretty rough shape-- worn down with a bit of a smell. The crew as less than stellar as well.
Kayak and Alaska have our trusted traveller information stored in our profiles. But, that information never made it to Alaska when it came time to check into our outbound flight. As a result, we were not cleared for TSA recheck. I was able to add in that information for our return flight and we had TSA Recheck on the return. I really expected Kayak and Alaska to do a complete job with our booking given the amount of information you have on file.
Not good, because they don’t serve me any drink with my meal. I asked but he said he forgot my drink again
It was an amazing experience for the first time doing my second flight by myself. Crew are friendly and they makes sure the customers meet their needs. I will use Alaska airline again for my next vocation. Thank you all for your hard work.
Food from the flight from Atlanta to Santiago was very poor..
The worst part was I was NOT allowed in the lounge even though I was holding a first class ticket and have a premium American Express card. I have flown Business or First Class with many airlines. Delta is the ONLY one who does not extend this courtesy to anyone except people who hold the very expensive American Express card. As a result, I won’t fly Delta if I have any other choice.
Terrible and im avoiding them in the future. My initial flight was delayed causing me to rebook my flight and when speaking with the representative to rebook I explained this is the second time my flights were delayed and they did nothing to help me. I wasn't booked to comfort plus or given a voucher or anything. I was almost late for my meeting that I needed to attend on Monday because of the games delta played delaying my flights even more and putting me in the very back of the plane next to an extremely intoxicated passenger
Thank you for not flipping the plane on the run way. You guys get a 5 star rating for the flight!!!
Although the flight left late, we arrived early. It was one of the quickest boarding and off boarding experiences I’ve had. It was kind of annoying the only drinks they had were water, coffee, and tea. The flight was very smooth, temperature was just right, and flight attendants were friendly.
Flight left early and arrived early. the whole trip was excellent.
Seats were really tight and the seat belts did not give enough slack.
Overall, it was okay. Seat was a little cramped. Would’ve liked more substantial snacks or opportunity to buy some.
The dear was very limited in space. I could put my water bottle in seat basket. Also, there was no inflight entertainment in the delta app?
Inexpensive, got an exit row aisle aeat with no middle passenger, bought a great breakfast sandwich, flight comfortable & arrived ahead of schedule.
Waited on the runway for takeoff for 2.5 hours. Air traffic rerouted us. The plane didn't have enough fuel, so had to go back to the gate. Had to wait for a new pilot. Should have landed at 5:22. Didn't land until 9:10. Trash flight.
There were five broken seats on the plane. The crew was very rude in telling people they had to get off the plane and get a flight the next day. No call for volunteers, but telling people they had to get off. One woman was flying with her elderly mother and daughter and was told she had to leave or all three had to leave. Fortunately, a volunteer offered to stay. The situation was handled poorly.
It was a code share with Alaska - would have been great if I actually made it on the plane, claimed I didn’t have a ticket or a seat even thought I was checked in.
Delays on all NY flights. There was no communication on why but they didn’t say it was weather. Other carriers were not delayed.
Extraordinary service in business class, and very good breakfast and snacks. A really lovely flight.
They cancelled our flight without warning OR a refund. Never doing business with American Airlines again! This is the second AA booked trip in a row that we've had challenges with.
I got bumped due to weight restrictions even tho there were empty seats on my flight. I got put on an other flight with a stopover. My flight that originally was going to take 5-6 hours ever up being 14+ hours and my luggage arrived to my destination without me because I was made to check in my luggage on my original flight when I was deemed ok to board only to be asked to deplane. Worst flight experience.
I was pleasantly surprised with an upgrade at boarding. I finally had a mostly gluten free food options and a very attentive attendant.
It was good. It’s been a long time since my wife and I fly any where and things have changed. Our trip was to see our new grandson. We fly economy and that was not good for my bad back. It was a quick flight but uncomfortable.
Staff at the gate were incredibly rude, hostile and threatening. Never fly American Airlines.
