As I wrote earlier, poor planning and/or communication. At least twice, we were told that we would be boarding in less than ten minutes, only to have the flight again delayed at least another hour.
Staff and aircraft were good. However, weather in Houston lee to a ground stop. We were looking at circling behind three other planes until the stop was lifted. Pilot said we didn’t have enough fuel for that. So we flew on to New Orleans as the closest port with immigration and customs staff. Landed there and sat in the plane for two hours plus while staff was sorted. Turned away by ICE. Waited for pilots to be switched out, but after they were approved by ICE. Then had to wait to get a runway because so many planes were ahead of us. Finally took off and flew back to Houston. We all missed our connecting flights because it took too long. Hotel voucher from United was only a link to booking site. Total BS. Finally got a flight out the next day after a night without sleep because all the Houston hotels were booked by rodeo and spring break crowds.
The food is terrible. The same pasta or chicken with bad taste and presentation
Always wish for more healthy, gluten free options. We have to bring our own.
Wonderful and fast TSA checkpoint. The line was fast and our gate was close by
Mostly the experience was good except for the flight changes made by UA which meant longer layover in DC
The flight was delayed, it took longer than anticipated because of weather, and they broke my luggage.
Did not even get on board. Was told I needed an esta agreement. Was not aware of this when I booked the fare and not told about them
Check-in was a little confusing. I paid for extra luggage, but when i checked in the system didnt seem to know. Arrived in Paris early after a late departure. Luggage arrived on the same flight with no apparent damage.
The crew’s attitud was not good, only worried for pilot’s comfort, so I ask myself why do I pay so much for so less. The plane is old and broken. I will rey another airline
I’ve wasted 7 hours of my time because of the delayed. ;(
It was good to receive a card for my birthday
I had a great time flying with Air Canada on my 16+ hour journey over to Korea. The food was wonderful they had all kinds of options. Keep up the good work Air Canada I will most definitely fly with you again.
Arrived at our connection to find out all 4 of our seats were moved in different parts of the aircraft. Traveling with two small children, this was not going to work. We spoke with the gate attendant and she was not helpful and downright rude. They could only “accommodate” having 2 seats together and this was an international flight. We will not be traveling with air Canada again unless there are absolutely no other options.
To be honest, nothing went well. Our flight was cancelled and we had a total nightmare trying to find out information of what to do. We had $2000.00 in frozen fish that we had to locate and then fight with Air Canada to get a hotel for the night that had a freezer. It took over 5 hours to resolve and 5 levels of management. We went from the customer service desk to a manager, to a lead manager, who had to contact Toronto, who had to wait for an answer from another level of management as to whether or not they could put us up at a "business class" hotel since it was the only option and we were "econo class" passengers. The vouchers we received for food barely bought a supper and breakfast and although the hotel was nice, our fish was definitely not cared for from start to finish and after a once in a lifetime fishing trip to have it end the way it did was such a disappointment and Air Canada, well, they really didn't care.
Boarding staff provided up-to-date flight information. They were professional and courteous. The flight was on-time and comfortable (adequate leg room). Early landing and orderly exited the aircraft. Ground baggage handlers were quick to offload carry-on bags. GREAT EXPERIENCE WITH HK EXPRESS
After two unsuccessful landing attempts, was diverted to Guadalajara for over 6 hours with very little communication/explanation from the crew. Also not allowed to deplane. Awful way to begin a vacation.
Good experience. Especially after the long 14.5 hour flight from hell from Sydney.
Flight was delayed for 4 hours for crew unavailability. I had to switch on another flight
Maple Leaf Lounge morning food could be more carried and substantial. All AC portion well managed, clean and on schedule
They should provide water to passengers who ask for it
Avianca is not what it used to be. So disappointing
why did we have to go through security mid flight
Fly was cancel on the las minute wiht out tell me
The fees for baggage were outrageous. $130 for carry on and $150 for check in for an international flight. The seats did not recline. We were not even offered water. Had we known all of this, we would not have booked Avianca at all.
I did not like anything, first time I use company and for sure it will be the last time, they charge for simple operations that any other average airline wouldn't charge.
It is better at the jfk than my home country. It was very easy and everything was on time.
Flight attendants to show up on time, offer drinks and food.
Voo longo nem mesmo água ou gelo é servido, se quiser tem que pagar. Embarque é péssimo, mau atendimento.
50% of flights book with Avanca have issues either reschedualed cancelled and their actions further supports their poorly managed airline do not use them only if there is no other options
I paid for one piece of checked in luggage, but TAG said it wasn’t paid for, so the charged me a high price for it.
My reservation indicated that I has luggage allowance of 35lbs per person but the airline mentioned that this allowance was only for the rteurn leg of the trip and c harged me $244 additionally for the flight ! This felt like a bait and switch and the complaint is more to do with losing trust in booking through Kayak if the details displayed cannot be confirmed and trusted with the actual airline
It was fine, however they didn’t provide an accurate time for the delayed takeoff. And at the small local airport where we departed, you couldn’t go through security much earlier than the flight. Given the delay, my flight was waiting in the lobby of the airport for a long time. The airlines never told us when we could all travel through security. This was a nuisance because many of us were forced to sit on the floor of the lobby instead of the spacious gate waiting area.
It was a short flight. Seats are small but the flight to Peten is less than an hour.
Allow for not applicable in your survey if there is no food or entertainment on a very short flight of only one hour
Notsure if it was an issue with the airline or Guatemala Int airport, but boarding information, times posted, and boarding to aircraft where contadicting n confusing - relied on gate airline staff n fellow travelers.
The flight was cancelled 2 time as. The airline was stranded me in Guatemala with no solution.
My flight was cancelled 2 times with no solution left stranded in Guatemala.
Boarding was long and messy. No food was offered on the flight. No entertainemnt. Clean flight however.
