Short comfortable flight. Like many European and US based airlines - expect a budget airline experience even on full service airlines

Short comfortable flight. Like many European and US based airlines - expect a budget airline experience even on full service airlines

uneventful, good economy section, friendly staffs, good food, safe flight.

More leg room than I expected, comfy seats, complimentary soft drinks when requested.

The seats are very uncomfortable. They never have tomato juice. Usually late

Finnair was not able to get our luggage on a connecting flight and there was a substantial delay of two days to obtain our lugguage. They did not communicate well, and we had to travel a significant distance to finally get our luggage. It has been a very negative experience.

On a more than 8 hours flight was only one meal included, which I have never experienced before. Always two meals on the overseas flight. It was very weird.

Business seating is soooo uncomfortable. You can sit straight up or lay down. You need pillows behind you because the back doesn’t lay down. Those are need to “prop” you up. The chair has no padding whatsoever. Food was gross. I’ve eaten on Finnair before and the food was exceptional. This time it gave 2 people in our party diarrhea. It was the chicken dish. I took 2 bites and didn’t eat anything more. The flight attendants were nice. You needed an additional lounge in Terminal D at DFW Airport. After waiting 40 minutes to enter, we finally gave up and went to a bar across from the club doors. I’m unsure if I’ll ever book a Finnair flight again.

It was a good flight, very comfortable seats for sleeping in business class. Probably the most comfortable business class seat I've ever had (20+ times in business class on various airlines). Service was good, but the only downside is my screen didn't work and it had to be reset multiple times to get it to shut off. I had to block my eyes because the screen was white almost the entire flight and I wore an eye mask when I slept. But when eating and reading in my seat, my eyes hurt because the only way to turn the screen off was reset it and the screen would only be off for a few minutes at a time.

Everything was wonderful! AirBus seats are more comfortable to sleep in as compared to the Boeing planes.

Great. It was awesome to have boarding from the front and back of the plane as it made the process go very quickly

The Airline was wonderful, passport check at the Copenhagen Airport is a nightmare , coming and going.

The airline and crew were incredible, the premium plus option was very comfortable, and the food delicious. I would recommend flying with them!

Probably not much to expect from a European domestic flight but it helps if they check the airplane for safe travel before boarding people. We had to stay on the tarmac and go back to gate for some sensor malfunction and refueling for two hours.

Flight canceled and rescheduled a day early when I was still on a boat in the Mediterranean. I was never notified that my flight was canceled.

No free Wi-Fi. I have SkyMiles but not a high status, having an account has been enough for Wi-Fi on other flights, but this one was going to charge me to use it. Also turbulence was really bad toward the end, but I didn't count this in my ratings since I know Delta cannot control the weather - it's 2026 and lack of WiFi alone is enough for a poor rating.

The only negative thing was boarding a Copenhagen-bound flight in Toronto. The middle aged woman at the desk gave me some bad time, claiming they wouldn't allow me to board the flight, switching to russian in the process. After I asked her to speak English and explained her that I had to reroute with the airline due to flight cancelations that where beyond my contro and will be leaving the Shengen zone promptly, she told me I had to check in my small bag because the flight was full and they needed someone to give up their cabin luggage. After I refused, she told me she would have to check my bag if it fits the allowed dimensions, which it did. I understand she's not an SAS employee, I understand she needs to check the documents and also make sure there's enough room for overhead bags on a plane. What really made me mad was her hostike tone and the beyond poor communication skills. Basic politeness would go a long way.

I could make online check-in anywhere. Check-in was complicated I could use your app for and it was hard find information for check-in for airline checking in their app. After hour I had to go anyway to make check in the airport. Rest of the flight was more than good

I paid for the seat with more leg room but on the day of my departure my seat was changed. I brought it to the airline costumer service and he was able to change it back. The person sitting next to me had the same exact issue.

Great experience. Typically do klm to Amsterdam but may start taking this flight in future - greatxexperience.

I was pleasantly surprised as it was my first time flying with them. The seats were comfortable with more legroom than usual. The service was great too! The entertainment was good but could use a few more new movies.

It was a very easy process and my children were very happy about the flight.

Landing in Toronto, special access in Toronto not well co-ordinated !!

We were told every hour that the flight was delayed until finally late in the day the flight was cancelled. We had to wait in line over an hour to finally get another flight. Once on the flight the host was ridiculously incoherent in the loudspeaker in flight - very inhospitable. Not happy with our experience.

French speaker should have an intelligible accent 4.5 hour flights with 2 hour delays should have more than a granola bar included

Flight was late from Vancouver to San Francisco but they never announced

Bad, we had 3h delay without clear understanding, which lead to missing my connection flight.

My only issue was the cost of the flight. I paid close to $900, and I’ve never experienced that before. Plus I had to pay for wifi on the flight. Otherwise, everything else was fine.

Delayed twice then cancelled at 02.00 in the morning. Left 300 people to sleep on the terminal floor overnight. Zero communication due to zero Air Canada staff.

Flight was "over subscribed" which is Air Canada speak for "we cancelled the earlier yyc-yvr flight so we now have more bums than seats".

Original flight was canceled by Air Canada and next day they re scheduled and paid by hotel and taxi cost, but it just so tired for waiting and I have some school exam that I couldn't prepare it at all.

Waiting area on top of stairs before Boarding the bus wasn’t great. Took a long time to load the bus to gate.

Worst airline I’ve ever flown. Delayed 5.5 hrs, missed connecting flight, and missed an entire day of vacation. Zero customer service

Only serving 2 small coffee in 7.5 hrs flight with very limited choice to order food.

Booked with Kayak… Economy Class it said. I had filtered for 1 checked bag. Get to boarding and it says I have Economy Light w/ no checked bags. $136 each way for baggage now. Do not use smartfares.com. Very misleading and a terrible start to this trip.

Overall good. I was surprised how easy it was to get from plain to plain in such a short time. Food choices were not so great and quite expensive. Entertainment was ok. Flights were smooth.

Staff in flight and at the airport were very helpful. A short time between flights made it stressful to get to the connecting flight and we probably would not have made it without the staff’s help.

The staff was really friendly and was comfortable. I found it disappointing that we were never offered any snacks while on the flight. For such a long flight and the amount we paid for our ticket that was unacceptable. Not sure if I’ll fly Icelandair again.

One small complaint: people in economy frequently were coming through the curtain to use the saga lavatory.

I liked how easy my transfers between flights in Keflavik were. I would have appreciated more food options in Keflavik.

On time and crew were good. Our seating arrangements in biz class were messed up, separated us as a couple and bulkhead seating not good for long legs.

In business on the top-deck of an overnight transatlantic flight. A family with uncontrolled young children were there too. All night they were running around up and down the walkway while squealing . . .

Boarding was weird. They boarded two flights at the same gate at the same time. So mass confusion for the non English/French speakers. So many people at such a small gate. Like every other part of this airport you have to walk miles between everything. Gate to plane was a 5 min walk :) several long flights so I was worried about my steps but ended up walking several miles here so worked out.

I never got to Lufthansa because of Air Canadas negligence.

The flight got delayed 3 hours from Montreal and we missed our connecting flight so it was a long journey

The service and food was excellent. The remote control for entertainment did not function properly.

All was good, except my USB charging did not work, so my phone got drained and I could not charge it. Same happened to my neighbour.

A bit more space? Not practical, I know. I felt squished in but part of that could have been the man sitting next to me.

The plane (Mitsubishi CRJ) felt old, creaking and not very new. The crew was okay. Hot water provision was broken so hot beverages could't be served.

Not bad. We had preboarding tickets but the preboarding was badly managed. We lined up behind all the parents with little kids etc and when we got to the front of the line the attendant deliberately turned away from us and ignored us until I asked to be allowed to go to the gate. She started telling us that we had to wait until I told her we had preboarding then she let us through.

The flight was half an hour late, which is the new normal in Europe. Friendly crew.
