I enjoyed it, again I believe air Canada has better seating options and better drink options
Excellent communication from the staff. We actually arrived early. Very friendly and professional staff.
Some crew were unfriendly or in some cases just straight up rude.
one staffer was frustrated (it happen); the flight was late and the pilot mentioned they'll make amend but the snacks were the same, other than that the aircraft was clean and everything went smooth, no complaints
Flight delayed. Connecting to night flight was stressful but made it. Jusr in time. Ran.88Flight was fine.
We had a layover from YVR to Denver. We bought 4 bottles of Absolut Vodka at the YVR Duty Free for $116.20, after going through security and American Customs Pre Clearance at YVR, Vancouver. When we landed in Denver, United put us behind the American Customs as well as TSA again for some reason. We were forced to go through American Customs and TSA again. TSA confiscated our rightfully owned Duty Free Absolut Vodka bottles. Because United incorrectly forced our flight behind American border and TSA again, we missed the connecting flight. After United put us on a later flight, we eventually arrived in Chicago very late, with hardly any sleep. I am looking for compensation from United for our incorrectly confiscated Absolut Vodka bottles worth $116.20, as well as compensation for incorrectly putting us behind American Customs and TSA again, causing us to miss our connecting flight, making us arrive extremely late in Chicago.
From the first moment you interact with United Airlines, you can expect nothing less but extreme frustration. The baggage handler at the bag drop seems completely unbothered by the presence of customers waiting in line. No help was extended to load the baggage whatsoever. And if any of your bags is overweight by 0.01 pound they will make you re-distribute everything in your suitcase just to play power trip. When it was time to board no help was extended to customers to locate their seats. Moreover. It was a chaotic mess at the gate when it was unclear who should board first and everyone just bunched up, trying to get on the plane. I am sure the crew was doing their best to perform their jobs while being paid their wages however it shouldn’t be that hard to smile once or twice when you’re in the business if serving customers. It is a shame for the United States of America to have a flagship carrier of such low caliber. Our flight was also delayed by about an hour and a half due to further delays prior to our inbound flight. Being someone who has travelled for both business and leisure in Asia, Europe, and South America I have never experienced such poor quality of service.
Flight was late as pilot crew had to land at different airport in their previous flight. Passengers boarded and had to wait for pilots inside plane. Series of incomplete and unnecessary announcements by an annoying voice, rather than complete, informative announcements.
My suitcase was completed destroyed. The top part is broken and unusable now.
Overall good flight. The pilots were excellent. It was a nice flight, but the seats were a little uncomfortable.
Truly loved the experience. The older I get the more I appreciate the benefits of upgrading. 14 hours in the air and able to hit the ground running.
Plane had cargo loading issues which delayed us by an hour. Not sure when the crew found out about this but it became a real pain.
Flight crew was unremarkable. They were not friendly and had a harsh tone. Truly didn't make us want to make sure we got an air Canada flight again.
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.
Wonderful experience. Long distance travel is never easy but this flight was a treat. Flight crew was very attentive and friendly
The flight was right on time and we made our connections
The people were awesome, my only complaint is the lack of business lounges
So cold. Too cold to sleep. Too cold to get comfortable. Wearing boots and a jacket and still so cold that I would need to curl up if a plane actually had enough room to allow me to do that. Miserable.
Warning- Air Canada makes it almost impossible to get a refund if a flight is cancelled. My flight was cancelled due to a damaged plane. This airline then rebooked me for a later flight. I went on line and tried to navigate their site to rebook to another within my original itinerary and I had thought I had changed it the first time, but since their site is nothing like our sites here in the states, you had to closely look for the links to complete the process. Then came the other problem. Trying to get a $45 refund on check in baggage, that I had paid for one day in advance. I tried calling the airline's customer service. They stated they are unable to process refunds for this. They then referred me to an on line site. This site required you to answer a multitude of drop down questions that are not applicable to a simple flight cancelation. Then right when I think I am done, it asks for an "incident number". I then eventually fly into Vancouver BC International Airport and speak to 3 Air Canada employees. They then tell me they cannot refund me my check in bagge fee. Once again, they refer me to this ridiculous site . They then give me a code to list and tell me to use the airport code, plus the letters AC followed by the flight # to list as an incident #. I tried this and guess what, it failed. Kayak, if you're listening. Something is very ethically wrong with Air Canada's refund process, especially when one of their planes is damaged and a flight is canceled. I have flown for many years, every week for a long time period with many airlines. Please post this so the public can see this accurate assessment of their airline customer service failure.
Limited service due to turbulence, N/A Food and Drink. No entertainment
Flight was late and boarding was confusing because gate changed and I didn’t get a notification
Was a normal flight but it was delayed, and there wasn't an explanation.
Free wifi was available, but only some time, being at least 30 minutes into the flight. it would have been better that an announcement had been made about the delay.
We were not offered anything to drink in business class during the boarding process.
Boarding was disorganized and delayed because they overbooked and wanted people to give up seats then further delayed due to an issue with the plane. They did not load my bag and it took a day for them to return it. Flight attendant was lovely and the only positive thing about this trip.
a321 business class not up to transcontinental & international flight standards
BA is now my preferred way to travel. On ground staff in Canada, London and Nairobi were patient , polite and helpful with our group. On board staff went that extra mile to make sure we felt important. Best of all, no lost luggage! Highly recommend BA in fact have 2 more long hauls with them this year.
Flight from Miami to Tampa was canceled on sudden notice. No alternatives were offered except next day's flight in the evening.
I rarely vote ‘Excellent’ but this AA flight out of LGA was amazing. On time departure, early arrival, amazing crew, smooth flight, baggage came out quickly. It was the best airport/ flight experience that anyone could ask for/dream of. Highly recommend. I usually fly Delta but American Airlines really stepped up their game.
Crew and boarding very good. Food adequate. Entertainment not accessed.
It’s a new plane, but the most important detail is that the economy class seat doesn't recline—it’s completely fixed. The only one that reclines is in Comfort Class.
We had to purchase an upgrade to get reclining seats. There was no entertainment module.
Even though I we were flying Business, my wife was in a wheelchair and the lady in the counter told the airport employee that he had to make the line (this was a first for us). There was only snacks and a heavier option to sell. The staff in the plane was great.
As previously experienced neither check in staff nor cabin crew were friendly or welcoming
A flawless trip, great experience. Keep up the good work!
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
Business class seats did not lie flat. There was only powdered milk for your coffee....in Business Class!! Food was good.
