Boarded late and then sat on plane for 45 minutes because of a clerical error...whatever that means. Then only one truck to deice plane, adding more time to our take off.

Cons: "Overall not bad. Food service can be better but it is due to the pandemic currently. Overall excellent flight!"

Pros: "Comfortable seats Friendly staff Soft landing"

Pros: "The guy working the terminal was very helpful."

Cons: "There was some grouchy lady working the terminal and she put a damper on everyone mood. Could put my seats together without me paying an up charge."

Pros: "Great crew, nice plane, awesomeness me entertainment"

Pros: "Entertainment was up to date."

Cons: "Leave on time so passengers dont miss their connection flights My family of 7 people are stuck at the airport in Zurich with no connection flights until tomorrow to have to board on two additional flights Absolutely unacceptable Never again will we book flights with Delta."

Cons: "The bathrooms smelled every time someone opened the door. Febreeze, please!!"

Cons: "Delayed takeoff by an hour because the plane was too heavy. Had to kick 8 passengers off the flight before they would takeoff."

Pros: "Crew was very fast but not enough during boarding and people had brought oversized carry on luggage to the gate requiring stowing. We had checked a carry-on at check in and paid $30 while several people got theirs stowed for free which seemed unfair."

Cons: "The charging for checked luggage has created a situation that was unfair for all travellers and ultimately made the plane’s departure late. This policy drives people to bring too much luggage into the cabin, putting at risk the safety of others and delays."

Pros: "The crew was very polite and accommodating."

Cons: "Seats are uncomfortable and tight."

Pros: "I did get home eventually"

Cons: "Flight was delayed. Seats are cramped."

Pros: "Flight crew was excellent. We had the emergency exit row so leg room was awesome! Kind bar and soda we good."

Cons: "Flight delay due to the older aircraft and lack of a pilot that knew how to fly it. Bathroom needed some tending to"

Pros: "Attentive and friendly crew, great entertainment system"

Cons: "Flight left late due to problem with cleaning crew, seats are uncomfortable, snacks were stale."

Pros: "Equipment felt a bit dated. No entertainment system, which was fine with me. Skipped the offered snack. Just had water. Flight was onntime."

Cons: "I was delayed over 2 hours"

Pros: "I love the in-flight movies!"

Cons: "This wasn't pertaining to the flight or airline; but the TSA line was ridiculously slow."

Pros: "Good choice of video programs."

Cons: "The flight attendant took 25 minutes to appear, and had enough time for one round of service. First class, at least you should get two drinks. Fly basic economy, there just isn’t any reason to fly first class."

Cons: "Direct flight, on time arrival"

Cons: "The airline booked us on two flights from SLC to BWI. Unfortunately, our seats on our original connection were released so when we arrived at our gate our only option was to split up and take middle seats - even though we had paid over $100 ea. for upgrades. Delta offered nothing for this. One of the flight attendants was in a terrible mood - she was cold and rude and would not even look at passengers - which her fellow crewmates noticed and tried to compensate for."

Pros: "The crew was organized and made us all laugh, and had a great personality."

Cons: "I upgraded my seat and paid extra for one with more room. And I wasn’t impressed with my upgrade, doesn’t feel like more leg than regular seats. Comfort was below average."

Pros: "i fell asleep until we arrive to STL."

Pros: "Our original flight was delayed and Marika, at the Delta gate of another flight to the same city, was able to get us on the flight that was going to our city. We were so grateful to get home before the winter storm! We appreciate your staff and the help their quick, efficient manner to get us on a new flight!"

Pros: "Good food. Great service"

Cons: "Small seats. Crowded."

Pros: "I got upgraded to comfort + which was great. quick flight, was even early"

Pros: "Leo was friendly and helpful, a wonderful presence on the flight."

Pros: "Delta made the experience great"

Cons: "Flight was delayed almost two hours"

Pros: "On time departure; good updates by flight deck; luggage arrived unscathed."

Cons: "Once beverage service was complete, flight attendants retreated to the back of the plane. On a 4-hour flight, it would have been nice to have someone come by and ask if we needed anything, such as water, coffee, or juice. Granola bar was good."

Cons: "The crew could have been more friendly"

Pros: "Over all the flight was smooth and great"

Cons: "Kayak, the confirmation email that was sent was incorrect, ended up flying delta - had a scare when checking in at the air europa desk and the attendant says "theres no flights to Malaga" - after further investigation from the staff, we found out it was a Delta flight and NOT and air europa flight"

Pros: "Delta is always running behind."

Pros: "I got to destination. Baggage claim was quick."

Cons: "Flight was delayed due to waiting for a tardy flight attendant. Landing felt a little hard. No announcement about baggage carousel prior to disembarking."

Pros: "For a short-haul flight on a small CRJ, it was the most pleasing and comfortable flight. No delays and everyone was pleasant from ground staff to flight crew."

Pros: "Great (seemed like unusually friendly and helpful) crew. Plenty of carry on baggage room."

Cons: "Seats didn't recline. Plane hot initially and couldn't be cooled down until airborne."

Cons: "Always a delay with Delta"

Pros: "Did not eat or use entertainment."

Pros: "Entertainment was fine."

Cons: "Food variety for lactose intolerant. Crew was bare able."

Pros: "Nice chairs with built in pillows. J"

Pros: "Everything was smooth. Short flight, but they offered us refills on drinks, which I've never experienced before. Polite staff, great flight. Thanks!"

Pros: "Excellent flight. Nice new aircraft."

Pros: "Crew service was excellent"

Cons: "Crew weren't really friendly. Special menu food wasn't great"

Pros: "On time, nice crew."

Cons: "Delayed flight for 6 hrs. and acts like it is just business as usual, perhaps it is for Delta"

This was by far the worst experience flying I have ever had

This was first flight of the day and it was delayed they indicated because they did not have the equipment to start the engines. How does that happen. This caused a 50 minute delay. Also no information was provided by the ground team before boarding which went into instant accelerated mode as groups 1-6 almost at the same time. It was chaotic.

Pros: "If I could choose my seat"

Pros: "Crew was friendly and nice."

Cons: "Delayed three hours with no communication or compensation. Poor customer service"

Cons: "Person in front of me had seat reclined from take off to landing. Nobody checked. Nobody told him it had to be upright during takeoff and landing. I believe that is a safety issue. Isn’t that why the flight attendants are there?"

Pros: "The planes took off on time, and arrived early. Couldn’t ask for more!"

Cons: "Seats were uncomfortable and legroom was bad."

Pros: "Great entertainment and crew."

Cons: "The seats are too close together. Sure, I could’ve paid extra to have more legroom, but the flight was already expensive enough. Please spread the seats back out a bit and charge us all the same price."

Pros: "Crew friendly and accommodating, even on short flight"

Cons: "Good - no complaints."

Pros: "Old aircraft, ok flight, on time"

Pros: "Friendly and attentive crew. On time."

Cons: "6 hour mechanical delay"

Cons: "First flight delayed 45 min, then cancelled. 2nd flight 3 hrs later."

Pros: "My connecting flight from london arrived late and the crew made sure i made it onto the flight to stl even though I barely made it to the gate on time."

Pros: "Flight was pleasant and all the crew members were courteous."

Pros: "Great pilot. Outstanding control over the plane. Arrived an hour and a half before originally forecasted three days prior."

Cons: "Flight was delayed almost two hours due to crew staffing issues."

Pros: "Flight crew very friendly."

Cons: "Everything was as expected. 1 star on entertainment as there was none. Would have liked to have been able to get 3 seats together without extra charges."

Cons: "It was nice. And boarding was good too."

Cons: "the fly got delayed for more than 3 hours."

Cons: "There was just an announcement that the refreshments will be served shortly but there were no refreshments. Take off and landing was horrible. Flight was shaking way more than usual."

Pros: "It was easy to travel"

Cons: "Too many delays. Having to de-board after boarding."

Cons: "Plane was not board on time. Delayed taking off."

Pros: "The middle seat was empty I had an aisle seat. That was wonderful."

Cons: "No wifi screens for books or movies but I had my iPhone."

Cons: "The hour delay due to maintenance and fueling."

Pros: "Why would a jet this size wobble all the way across the Atlantic! The pretzels were even stale, and they served a "pizza" that was a stale mini loaf with sauce and a little mozzarella. People were starving when breakfast was served. The thermostat fluctuated from horribly hot to freeing - for 14 hrs. The crew slammed things down on table trays, grumped, were giving harsh orders to patrons rather than gently directing them. These ladies do not enjoy their job. I am done with Delta. We were also an hour late taking off due to a door on a cargo hold not closing. I was embarrassed that our Aussie friends experienced this as their first American flight."

Cons: "Food, attitude of flight attendants, comfort of cabin. Pilot took charge of thermostat issue and kept us informed in a friendly manner regarding the status of our take off and flight progress."

Cons: "Seemed to be an unnecessary delay in departing a half hour late"

Cons: "I nearly missed my flight because I did not have a seat for a flight that I bought a ticket for at full price. Which, would lead one to believe that I would have a seat on said flight. However, coming to the gate an hour before boarding the personnel working gate the said he was having computer difficulties and could not get me a seat and it would be 10 min. I continued to return till boarding to find out I had no seat and I was on standby. Upon going to customer service they replied the airline oversold tickets and every airline does this as if to make this practice ok. Well being in sales myself and if I were to sell x amount of product to one customer ( or several) I better make sure I have it all there to deliver. People rely on you schedule wise. It nearly shot a meeting I had to make in the foot. Very disappointed with the airline and the way things were handled."

Cons: "Forced to check my carry on. Took 30min for the bags to come out on the carousel. Which is why i never check my bag."

Cons: "Unmotivated crew, uncomfortable seats."

Pros: "very friendly staff"

Pros: "Nothing to expect from Domestic fight."

Pros: "Entertainment, 110 plugins for devices, internet."

Cons: "only free meal option was cinnamon cookies."

Cons: "This was my return trip with more delays due to maintenance issues of the aircraft. 10/17/16 flight 1585 was the outgoing flight delayed five hours on my departing trip. I waited at the baggage carousel 15 minutes for my bag after over an hour delay due to switching aircrafts. With a flight arriving this late in the evening with the low volume of bags checked (due to checked luggage charges), this should not be the case. Five minutes to gulp down ginger ale."

Pros: "All flights were on time Greatly enjoyed the trip"

Pros: "On time, arrived early."

Cons: "Seats too close in front of you."

Cons: "Again out of snacks and she skipped our row for drinks. Again small issues but what else are they doing?"

Pros: "Flight was on time. Plane was clean. Staff very professional."

Cons: "Attempted to make my connection which was in another terminal. Could not get onboard as they shut the doors. My rerouted flight was in a different terminal. Overall a very disappointing travel experience."

Pros: "It took off on time and life was good."

Pros: "The plane has improved greatly with their comfort and leg space"

Cons: "With checking my luggage my bag fee was waived a total of seven times this trip because I'm a military wife to see my husband overseas who is serving a year in Saudi Arabi except this past time on October 2nd at DCA airport. Spoke with the Supervisor Ralph who stated it was against policy. How stringent is this policy if it was waived seven times previously? Policy needs to be reviewed with entire staff. I will no longer use American Airlines because their military convenience and policies no longer seem to favor the military. My husband also after speaking with him will also no longer use your airline including all his members he overseas when they return after their year tour."

Cons: "The Flight Attendant never gave me back my credit card."

Cons: "Crew was very grumpy and not accommodating to families (ours and others). No wifi or outlets."

Cons: "The actual flight was fine. It was the delay, followed by what seemed changing info on when it was happening. Every 30 minutes it changed. Five minutes before the flight, the info board said it had been moved to 9:40pm and was changed from Gate 3 to Gate 30, a very long distance to get to. However t"

Cons: "With the exception of delays due to thunderstorms all was excellent."

Cons: "My name was on both reservations, i did not notice this until my wife and i tried to check in. They would not change the name on one of the tickets to my wife, Kathleen. So we had to cancel the entire reservation. I have trip insurance with Allianz, and am trying to get a refund for the tickets. If"

Cons: "Tight seats, no access to actual WiFi unless you purchase a yearly or monthly plan"

Cons: "The flight was a little early which I truly love! Everything else was just fine."

Cons: "Boarding could have been better. If you have 5 groups you should have 5 lines — not 2. Also the terminal in Holland was extraordinarily cold."

Pros: "The crew was very helpful and kind."

Cons: "The entertainment app did not allow me to watch any of the quality programming and my seat to Chicago was extremely cramped and did not recline."

Cons: "Several delays for maintenance and then plane in our gate when we landed"

Pros: "Economy plus was so roomy and the crew was very attentive and nice."

Cons: "Space a little cramped.for spmepne 6'3""

Pros: "Everything was really smooth sailing."

Cons: "Everything was great! The Charleston airport is small yet very nice inside"

Pros: "Check-in process was smooth"

Pros: "Lots of leg room for a regional jet."

Cons: "AC was not very good. Very warm on flight."

Pros: "The flight was actually with United not Lufthansa."

Cons: "It was like they changed our Lufthansa flight to United. I was not able to get our seat until the last minute at the counter. Luckily the crew was good and helpful atherwise I could not even sit with my husband. My chair was broken so I had to sit very straight. The screen was very tiny like only half size of the one on Luthansa flight. The food was only so so as well but that was just my personal taste."

Cons: "Delayed due to a late crew member. Arrived 2 hours late into O'Hare making for a very tight connection. Other than the delay, all was fine."

Cons: "Flight attendants seemed completely unwilling to accommodate any requests outside of their "service time"."

Pros: "Staff in Syracuse where awsome from the guy at the united check in Guest to the TSA Gal who had to give us a patdown super sweet and helpful."

Cons: "In both airports I was wheeled to gates and left in the way of people coming and going. I tried to get the attention of airline employees and when I did they told someone else and so I sat for between 40-60 minutes."

Pros: "The actual crew on the flight was lovely and apologetic, did everything they could to help us despite the delays. At least that's something."

Cons: "Delayed for over an hour but not notified of the length of the delay in a fashion which would allow me to drive the 2 hours to Chicago in order to make my connection. Repeatedly told the connecting flight was the last one out of the entire airport to my final destination. Heard other travelers discussing that they had been rebooked onto an alternate airline and then found a later flight on Kayak, walked up to podium and asked to be rebooked on that specific flight, which they grudgingly did. Of note, I was repeatedly reassured that they were "sure" I would make my connection without a problem and to stop worrying so much. My flight left out of Madison 2 minutes after my connection departed Chicago. I usually fly a different airline, whose flights out of Madison were all on time that day, and will do so in the future despite more expensive ticket. The actual crew on the flight was lovely and apologetic, did everything they could to help us despite the delays. At least that's something."

Pros: "Flight was on time and boarding was smooth."

Cons: "The crew weren’t as welcoming. No leg room at all."

Cons: "Extremely small plane. No tv in headrests or on plane, Not enough room for everyone's carry on, no usb charging ports, don't offer unlimited snacks and beverages. They did not offer ANY drinks or snack on this flight which is ridiculous."

Pros: "I was impressed that he came into the cabin to talk to us face-to-face instead of just over the intercom. He was friendly and humorous at boarding, and completely serious when he needed to divert. Explained clearly why and kept us informed of next steps."

Pros: "We loved the small terminal at Sky Harbor, with the cute little discounted parking lot, no more that 100 feet away. We loved the location of Avis Rental Car, directly across from the baggage pick-up exit doors, at Regional Southwest. Our flights were all on-time, and the crew was extremely professional."

Cons: "No need for reclining seats. These cause a problem with leg room, for the person behind the "recliner.""

Cons: "Other than sitting in the airport for 4 hour and changing to 3 different gate and not getting in till 7:30. Need I say more"

Cons: "One of the crew members was late to arrive, so boarding was delayed. However, The gate crew was amazing, very communicative and apologetic. During the flight the attendants seemed very agitated, I think a smile would go along way to improve the attitude of everyone. I also work with the public, I get that it is challenging, but I do believe that the simple gesture of a smile sets the tone."

Pros: "Clean aircraft, swift flight"

Cons: "Seat was changed to last row/middle seat (not what initially booked or confirmed with online check-in). Before takeoff, attendant moved all passengers in back row to alternate seats. Which meant that I was no longer traveling with my colleague. Unfortunately, that made our intended meeting time impossible."

Pros: "United Provide good service"

Cons: "The flight delayed"

Pros: "Very short flight seating was normal for what I expect as a guy my size"

Cons: "I couldnt figure out their wifi to check on my connecting flight. I could get other stuff to work on it but couldnt find flight information"

Pros: "The crews and staff were competent and helpful."

Cons: "The seat pitch and width isn't worth the price of the flight. Some passengers winced some when they saw where they would be seatied in the cramped cabin. For the plane type, I would think not much can be done for the width, but the tight seat pitch is very tight for most of the people that fly."

Cons: "I'm 5'3 and could not even lean forward to rest my head on the table in front of me because there wasn't enough room. I shouldn't have to pay an additional 95 dollars to have what was previously considered a normal seat with normal leg room, especially after loosing 6 hours of my life due to United flight delays during the course of my trip."

Pros: "very kind flight crew, no complaints coming back!"

Cons: "We did have one seemingly annoyed flight attendant on the way to NOLA from Chicago, and older woman. Seemed like every question we had was a burden. Everyone else was really nice, though."

Cons: "My flight to LAX was delayed by over two hours and I had to call and reschedule. I was rescheduled to an AA flight connecting in Chicago. The flight from Chicago to LAX was delayed by over four hours!"

Cons: "I never made it on the flight due to weather conditions they couldn't even hold the flight, and then when I have to get my own accommodations had to pay for my own hotel that is not cool"

Pros: "Comfortable seats with plenty legroom."

Pros: "Flight and service were great."

Cons: "United it terrible at letting you know flights are delayed. Got to the airport and found out my flight wasn't going to take off till 2:45 which was 4 hours later then my scheduled flight. I asked the ticketing associate why it was delayed and she said that it was due to crew issues. At least let me know that the flight is delayed so I didn't have to get to the airport 5 hours before my flight took off."

Pros: "Some gate agents were very helpful and friendly with making (gratis) layover changes due to weather issues in my original layover city."

Cons: "They don't assign seats ahead of time, in FCA...too much "juggling" people around prior to boarding."

Pros: "Pilots and some flight attendants were kind and friendly."

Cons: "On the return home, I was seated in the last row right next to the lavatory. I was bumped into at least 25 times by other passengers and flight attendants. I would suggest removing the aisle seat on both sides."

Cons: "Unfortantely their was a mechanical problem that delayed the flight. I understand that failures occur, but only having one mechanic available to work this problem is not good. What happend to the two person concept when working on critical aircraft systems? Pretty hard landing at Chicago."

Cons: "No alternative options given. Slow response. No retrieval of email confirmation after purchase of trip. Flight was delayed and no notice was given. Rental car had to ordered last minute and was left without room and board for the night. Had to call again for actual co formation of second flight because no notice was given,"

Cons: "The seats are so narrow in coach that the man with broad shoulders that sat next to me could not help being in my seat. I needed to be able to sleep, since it was an overnight flight. This was not possible."

Pros: "The flight attendents were attentive and did a great job."

Cons: "Customer service was rude to us about our carry on. It was fine on the way to Boston, but made to pay and check it on the way back. other customers had bags our size but we we're rudely told "you need to go pay for your bag that's it". The bag fit effortlessly in the top on the way there."

Pros: "guess that the only thing I liked is that there was no problem during the flight."

Cons: "When we landed un Houston it took forever to get off the plane. It was unclear where to get my luggage. I had to leave it to pass through TSA to run and try to catch my flight from Houston to Chicago. When I arrived at my gate I got there just in time because they were starting to board the plane. I was uconfortable sitting between two men. I traveled alone. When we landed in Chicago, took forever to get to the gate so we can get off the plane. There was no entertainment, at least for me. My phone was way low in battery and ai couldn't watch anything."

Cons: "Delays, had to stay overnight in Chicago since we arrived 6 hours late"

Cons: "For reasons known only to them, United managed to separate the reservations of my wife and mine. Having paid for the trip with the Mileage Plus Explorer card, the first checked bag is free for each traveler. At the kiosk check-in at Logan, the machine wanted to bill us $25 to check my wife's bag. It took another 20 minutes to get this rectified."

Pros: "Crew was very nice."

Cons: "Plane aisle was a tight squeeze with carry on bag plus seats were very close together, and I'm a small person at 5'1". Otherwise flight was good."

Cons: "There was no air circulating on the plane the entire flight. The plane was over 90 degrees when we got on. Everyone on the flight asked for the air to be on and we were told it was. No air was coming out of the vents. Horrible flight."

Pros: "The availability of free entertainment on the plane was a positive. The stewardess also was accommodating in giving me both a soda and water."

Cons: "We arrived 1 hour early to a line for checking bags that did not move for nearly 1 hour. There were staff behind the desk that were standing around on their phones and meanwhile there were lines longer than I have ever seen just waiting to be helped. The fact that check in etc was all in one place at the MSY is baffling. I paid ahead of time to check my bags but still had to wait in line behind people who had not even checked in for flights that appeared to be stopping in at least two destinations. Once we finally got to the counter, the staff member informed us that they were re-routing our trip. No apology was offered. When I conferred with my travel companion about the best option to re-route, the employee said "Sir I am speaking to you. Not that man." I tried to explain that this man was my travel companion who I needed to travel with because we were in-fact going to the same destination and had planned additional transportation together and that I needed to know if there was room for two people on this flight so that we could proceed onto our route together. After being interrogated about why my companion was not on my reservation, the employee told us that 12 people would not make the flight we were supposed to be on. She then took our bags (we have now been in line to check bags for almost 1.5 hours). Fast-forward to the return flight. We are supposed to depart at 7:15, but were delayed to 8pm, then 8:30, then back to 8pm, then to 8:25, then 8:40, then 9pm between the times of 11am and 8pm. Our trip to the airport that included two trains was significantly more stressful as these projected times were changed because we went from being on time to late to on time all within the span of an hour. The employees on the return flight were helpful in making up for the numerous delays but the confusion that seemed to hover over the company made me feel like nobody cared about whether we reached our destination."

Pros: "Piolet communication, safe smooth landing inspite of horible turbulence."

Cons: "4hr delay, late on serving snacks, small aircraft, no tv, no phone charge system in the seats like other airlines/planes has."
