I used by Skymiles to upgrade to First so that I could comfortably work using my laptop. But WiFi was intermittent and unavailable for long periods. I feel like I wasted 70,000 miles :(
Great as one can be for a one connection 6 hour flight
Chairs don’t recline and the ones that do recline, barely do recline. It was most uncomfortable flight i ever been on.
Good service but not on par when compared to foreign flag carriers.
good in general food is just snack and beverages (same snacks all the time) could you try to change them?
My Delta flight 2423 from Atlanta to Oklahoma City got delayed multiple times. It was originally scheduled to depart at 10:41 pm EST with a 11:58 pm CST arrival in Oklahoma City. However, after multiple delays, the flight finally departed Atlanta at around 12:40 am and arrived in Oklahoma City at around 1:50 am. What was even more disappointing was that none of the crew members acknowledged, let alone apologize, for the delays. These delays were not due to weather and were only due to operational/mechanical issues on the part of Delta. As a former Platinum SkyMiles member, I valued loyalty with Delta. However, after having similar experiences in the recent past, I'll be switching my loyalty over to American Airlines going forward. This was a highly disappointing experience.
Delta always provides stellar service. I am always impressed and will try my best to travel via Delta if I can afford it.
In-flight: great! Efficient & comfortable, no complaints. On the ground: quite the opposite. The flight was delayed with no real explanation. If you can fly direct with Delta that's your best bet. Connecting flights with them when one is delayed, especially if the next flight is to a small airport, really was a mess. They did correct the problem with no cost to us, but it made getting home a 24 hr journey instead of 8. Also, staff at the gate at Minneapolis was NOT kind at all.
Wi-fi was out for the whole flight. I pay a premium to fly Delta because it has wifi and because it was out I didn’t get to work on anything I wanted to. I’ll have to make it up later this week by spending less time with my family.
Very nice the whole crew was amazing and very professional. I had an offer for a drink it was handled great and amazing crew and nice flight.
Flight crew was super friendly and helpful. Food was frequent and honestly pretty good. Plenty of on-board entertainment. Economy seats are super cramped for such a long flight, but the crew allowed people to get up and stretch, and kids could wander with their parents, so we all made it work. Overall a very good experience.
I couldn’t make my first flight due to weather delays trapping us in the town we were in. Then I had to buy a new ticket
The seats were comfortable and we had leg room. Great entertainment.
I feel bad, but Swiss airlines is not an airlines I will ever fly again. Their cabins are basic, seats are extremely uncomfortable, crew is a hit or a miss with service. What's worse is how they make you feel they are there to make money and not make your travel needs be met or make your travel a pleasure. They charge for 2nd bags, seat selection and felt like a budget arinines frontier/spirit airline attitude and approach. Their business class is from the early 2000s, basic. Additionally, planes going to India, are old, falling apart and not maintained. Even the crew mentioned this is typical of the airline having older planes going to India. Panels detached and loose or stuck with duct tape, seats scruffed up and dirty, seatbelts roughed up. The scariest thing was when I saw a window panel next to where I was sitting loose and dangling. The crew mentioned it's only cosmetic and assured the integrity of the plane was inspected by the maintenance crew. This is where they confessed about planes going to India being old. I UNFORTUNATELY would NOT recommend Swiss airlines to anyone and will NEVER fly with them again!
Ability to watch movies.No earbud sound system.Marginal beverage service.Unexplained late take off resulting in VERY tight connection in LA which proved maximally stressful.
Sitting in 1A I can honestly say, that being a first class seat the leg room is sub par. The crew was attentive and friendly. Food was a a cheeseburger with fries. Fries on an airplane came as expected: no very crispy 😉
United Premium Plus or Premium Economy was almost twice the price as regular Economy, but the value is much worse. The seat is a bit wider and more comfortable. but not by much. The food was not good, felt like cheap fast foods on a little bit of silverware. The flight attendance service was the worse, not much attention to passenger, no helping of any kind. All in all, United Premium Plus is not worth its price, and was much worse than its Asian or Europe counter parts.
On long flights with semi-comfortable seats the airline needs to accommodate for the need to stand up. Otherwise a fight becomes pure torture. Not even business class provides for that.
The flight and staff was very good However: we could not check in using the website. We got the reminders and updated information but could not check in on either flight. And we did have the United App. Also just a tip for fellow travelers - going through customs in Chicago Ohare Airport it terrible.
I had always heard bad reviews about United Airlines so I have always avoided them when traveling. Little did I know that when I booked my flight with Swiss Air they would swap it to a United Airlines flight. The change was made only days before my departure leaving me no option to cancel or get a refund. I hoped for the best but experienced the worst. I paid for 2 seats for my daughter (13)and i to travel together. Both times leaving from home airport and returning from vacation, they sat us apart from each other: different seats and rows far away where we couldn'teven see or waive at each other. There was no option to change because by the time you're allowed to check-in the only seats available next to each other cost nearly $200 each. I stomached the extra cost from the first flight hoping the return flight would be better. No chance! The return flight was worse. I was sandwiched for an 9 hour flight between 2 stangers while my 13 year old sat 5 rows down . Just horrible experience. NEVER AGAIN will i fly Swiss Air or United Airlines ! So disappointing.
