We had missed our scheduled connecting flight to Casper and was on the late arrival of 10:15. The plane pulled up to the gangway and nobody was getting off after waiting several minutes. The pilot made an announcement that he needed to start the engines and make a circle back to the parking spot 6 inches closer. Overall, it took 45 minutes to get off the plane that usually takes less than 15. Because of the flight delays out of Casper at the beginning of our trip and on the way home, we booked our next trip out of Denver which is a four hour drive each way.

We had missed our scheduled connecting flight to Casper and was on the late arrival of 10:15. The plane pulled up to the gangway and nobody was getting off after waiting several minutes. The pilot made an announcement that he needed to start the engines and make a circle back to the parking spot 6 inches closer. Overall, it took 45 minutes to get off the plane that usually takes less than 15. Because of the flight delays out of Casper at the beginning of our trip and on the way home, we booked our next trip out of Denver which is a four hour drive each way.

Flight delay for something to do with an accident on a runway. Our connection time was scheduled for 1 hour and 11 minutes which wasn’t enough with the departure time. We eventually got to our home airport 3 hours late.

The plane to Casper is of the two by two variety which has small bag only overhead. So many passengers try to put oversized bags overhead and causes delays for the flight. Hand checked bags for all with anything larger than a purse or briefcase would make boarding easier.

Our trip from MSP to DEN was 15 minutes early arriving and made us feel a little better while walking from B19 to B94. We checked the Departure board midway to make sure the gate was still assigned to our flight. Just before we arrived, we checked the board and now it said B62 which was back up a stairway and around a long corner. We were exhausted!

My experience on this United Airlines flight was highly uncomfortable, primarily due to two issues: Cabin Temperature: The temperature on the Boeing 737 MAX 8 was unacceptably high, feeling consistently around 80 degrees throughout the flight. This made sleeping impossible and significantly detracted from the experience. Seating Arrangement: Being stuck in a middle seat for a six-and-a-half-hour overnight flight compounded the discomfort. Moving forward, I will always purchase a seat assignment to avoid this situation.

Salina to travers city was great! But the sept 24 Tranverse city was not! Traverse city to chichago was cancelled, i went to Denver & got to Salina 6 hours later!

I flew with my dog and had already purchased my dog’s ticket. Even that morning I had called costumer service to insure that my husband and I had seats together since the website was giving me an error when choosing our seats and the representative mentioned our dog. I showed up early to the airport and when I got to the gate and we started boarding I was help back and told that I was supposed to have a yellow tag and that I should have checked in at the counter for them to give me that tag. I was not aware of this, the representative on the phone did not say anything. Nor did I see it anywhere in the checking process online, so if you travel with a pet and are not checking in luggage, just know that you still have to go to the check in counter when arriving at the airport unless you want to be the last one to board and not have room for your carry on in the overhead bins. Other than that, I had a great experience.

The crew were very nice. The Chocolate is good and v there’s no entertainment. Thanks

I missed my flight and they would let me on the plane

I had very little time to change planes originally in Denver after my flight from Omaha. I had an hour and a half layover in Denver originally and my flight leaving Omaha was delayed an hour because they had to change a tire, which I can understand. When I reached Denver my other flight was late, fortunately, but I still had only 10 minutes to run about a mile through the airport to get to my flight. Again, fortunately, I am a healthy 71-year-old and was able to accomplish this feat. However, the stress was more than necessary to bear.
