The flight was packed solid which shouldn’t be a problem, but when you realize that if you are over 5’7” tall there is no room to do anything but sit uptight it changes the perspective. Especially when you are in a seat that doesn’t even recline. Those seats should warrant a discount really. It’s preposterous that you have yo pay an extra $60ish to get 10cm more leg room but have to pay the same price as everyone else when you have seemingly less leg room and can’t even put your seat back the wee bit everyone else can. Offer them at a discount on booking even. I know tons of travelling kids/young people who wouldn’t mind sitting like that for five hours if a nice discount was offered. The staff was lovely and the touchdown was stellar but the extreme close quarters is what has me pondering another means of travel whenever possible.
$4 for headphones to use the multimedia system, games that are boring.....small oat bar as a snack....Porter has better snacks and entertainment
I appreciated the fact carry on picked up at the checkinn . Service and check in super nicer.
Crew was great. The crew that came on in Montreal helped us look for a lost passport and could not have been nicer. Our only problem was boarding in Barcelona but was due to airport issue. Not enough staff to get wheelchair passengers to gates.
nothing at all. no headset for 5hrs to watch the entertainment, no snack
I did not get meals as I was asleep and nothing later
Nothing my direct LHR to YVR was cancelled and the extra time going through Toronto was terrible - the AC staff in Toronto were rude and unwilling to assist.
They put us on stand by even though we booked it on the air Canada website and had seats picked so that sucked. Flight was awesome nice having a free beer and a movie
They should improve their choice of food, we need a wide variety
Wonderful experience. Long distance travel is never easy but this flight was a treat. Flight crew was very attentive and friendly
Seats are absolutely not comfortable and large enough. There’s a limit and you stepped over it. I understand that there’s a business class, however for the price it costs, it’s just plain stupid for a 50 minute flight.
I had bad experiences before now was excellent I am glad they have business class again
Provide free food and drinks on an international flight. Add updated head rests
We found the chairs to be really uncomfortable. It’s also really unacceptable that no form of food or drink is included in a 6+ hour flight
We waited for one hour to deboard the plane after landing. That could be better
Horrible experience. Flight cancelled. Arrived at destination 12 hs later. No one gave us an answer or any information. Very very poor service. We won’t ever travel again with Avianca
Very uncomfortable planes , poor service on the plane , take your own water so you don’t dehydrate , in a 6 hs flight they sold one time food and beverage . 1 plane was delayed 6 hs , I lost a connecting flight . Then in the way back they announce a delay of 2 hs so I had to take a different flight to arrive on time for my connecting flight . Avoid this airline .
Business class seats did not lie flat. There was only powdered milk for your coffee....in Business Class!! Food was good.
Charging for WATER on a SIX hour flight in repugnant. Enough said!
Worst in 25 years. A 10 hours flight from Buenos Aires to Costa Rica and no free food! Then the food available for purchase was sold out in 5 minutes. I was travelling with two kids and wasn't ready to keep them happy with chips and cookies for such a long time. Avianca doesn't make sure that minors sit next to an adult so I was forced to pay 65 USD for each seat in a so called premium seat whic is exactly the same as the economy free seats. Never again with Avianca.
Delayed fly, employees at the counter not professional and lack empathy to help, crew inside the plane very rude and unfriendly my fly was delayed for 2 hours. For being this the first time I will say if there is not other option then I will fly with this airline. One more thing, the pilot never said a wakes the whole fly but until we are about to descend. Not a welcome message the wether at the destination and time to arrival. It seems that the airplane was flying by itself without pilots. Terrible.
Do not book with this airline. Flights delayed over 3 hours and no explanation. They keep changing your itinerary every hour.
Really bad. Uncommunicated stop in Trinidad & Tobago for refueling. Extra stop added 3 hours of discomfort without allowing off the seat. Not even water, or chargers or boarding groups.
Staff were unfriendly and rude. Was stuck on runway for 2 hours after arrival in Boston.
Horrible service. No communication from the crew as to why a 6 hour delay then cancellation
We waited in an overcrowded bus for over a half hour. It was uncomfortable. It would have been better to have waited in the terminal in a line
The food for sale on board has opportunity for improvement.
I paid extra for a comfortable seat in the second flight, but the plane didn't have those seats, the first one did
The Arajet person who greeted us initially was unhelpful & rude about the mandatory migration form which has to be completed digitally but the systems don’t work properly. The boarding gate was changed twice and initial boarding was delayed. Once on board we we had to wait an hour and a half before take off. It was hot and there was very little room for tall-ish people to fit their knees in. The crew were pleasant but working in a poor situation. The plane was delayed because we were waiting for people from a delayed interconnecting flight. Arajet must have known that before we were asked to board. Better information, decisions & communication were needed.
My seat was broken and the crew had to find me somewhere else to sit. The crew was extremely courteous about this
