We were very offended Reserva check in agent in Calgary. Erroneously profiled and reprimanded for using Reserve line . Hadn't even looked at tickets. We were in fact Reserve passengers
Even tho the flight was a bit delayed the team was apologetic. Everyone was friendly and efficient.
Everything was good except the fact you charge more for a carry on bag vs a check in bag and to top it off in US$ that was not impressive
Our flight was cancelled at the last minute for maintenance reasons and we were rebooked on a late flight when we purposefully booked our flight to be home early due to work.
I love the 2 seats per row. More room. The crew were excellent.
Staff were excellant. Only snacks served. Some turbulence so we were offered Free beer or wine.
Thanks for giving a beer to everyone in the seat infront of me and then telling me that I can’t have one because they are going to land. I guess I need to pay for a seat and then pick one in the very front of the plane
Only packaged snacks were served. It was a flight at lunchtime and a hot meal would have been a great.
I didn’t make my flight due to poor weather and I had an accident driving there. I tried to get my money back or even credit and nothing. I have an entire flight both to Florida and back that I paid for and no one will give me any money back. I know this isn’t just Porter and it’s 3rd party- however airlines should allow these companies to take money for things they don’t get. I’m so upset. Who can afford a full flight they never take?
Nothing , two weeks of dealing with booking glitches on porters side , as our main international carrier was fine ,we were assured. When we got to check in everything would be smooth , we were confirmed there would be no issues, guess what happened? After an hour and a half at check inn we were told there was technical glitch involving payment we may not be able to fly , which would have set off a catastrophic chain , the undue stress on my family was unbearable .
My screen was broken so now movies, etc, but I didn’t really mind. They did work on it, so good effort on their part.
i was not able to take my flight because the information i needed to book my dog correctly was not provided
They never sent me a confirmation to say my flight time had changed so I cut my holiday short by 6 hours Had to pay over 50 American for my luggage to be checked on the way home and that’s more that it cost on the way there. Arbitrarily charging more for the same thing when the passenger has no options is shady The cabin was an icebox going there and back, if all the passengers have their gloves on and their hoods up that should be an obvious sign to turn up the heat
We were treated well by the staff at the airport and on board aircraft. Delay was uncontrollable due to the weather. Had to wait for another gate as we were late landing in Fort Lauderdale.
Porter airlines was good. I didn't have the best experience when booking through airfare assist however, as I got no final confirmation from them that the flight was booked until I called them. Even then, the confirmation code they gave me was incorrect and couldn't be used for check in. On a positive note airfare assist was actually picked up the phone relatively quickly when calling
The flight crew were very good, polite, and professional. Unfortunately, the rest of the experience left much to be desired. The food was extremely bland—almost tasteless. We chose the non vegetarian .The lasagna was just plain pasta with a tiny garnish and no seasoning. It felt like eating starch only, The bigger issue was with luggage and space. We boarded with three tickets, and while the seats in front of us were nearly empty, all the overhead compartments had already been filled by passengers boarding to the back. This left us and many others with no overhead storage for our carry-ons. Our bags couldn’t fit well under the seats either, which meant we lost the little legroom we had. The result was a horrible, cramped experience—sore knees, no space to stretch, and no way to rest or sleep comfortably. According to the crew this was a rather normal thing. It is obviously normal that people board with handbag and carry on but they should be only allowed to use their overhead compartment and under their seat not the way it is managed that all the spaces in the front of the plane being occupied by the people sitting way back in the plane.
This has been the worst experience I’ve ever had. Basically, I lost my round-trip tickets because one of my last names was missing, and you didn’t allow me to correct it. I had to purchase a full ticket again. Once I get home, I will start legal proceedings against you.
Not so much porter it's your site! Not good
The connecting flight lay over was 4.00 hours, the gate agent booked me on the next flight which was about to depart at no extra cost.
I think as another discount flyer they stepped up the bar. I think they should stay around for awhile
I like the idea of a non-overnight flight to Europe.
There was no food but a singular cookie for a flight that was over 5hours??? Yeah not fun I was starving and again super cramped plane and you guys need to get planes with screens too, WiFi is nice but common we need more
I didn’t have any food but my Prosecco hit the spot. We left on time and the crew was friendly.
The plug in to charge our phones are all loose my block would not stay in!!
This flight was better than the first. Two of the flight attendants were wonderful at supporting m through nausea and vomiting through the flight. No tv, no food, very interesting. I’ve never paid for wifi (just the $3 chatting) until these 2 flights. This experience has changed my opinion on layovers. Idk if I’ll ever do one again
It was good, flight was on time, boarding was smooth and done in zones, food was good too but there was no form of entertainment. Luggage’s were intact. So an overall good flight
It was okay overall, but it was a 4 hours flight and the only thing we got was snacks, I really expected breakfast.
Entertainment was the only issue. I did not have app & not equipped to watch movie on my phone. Used to other carriers with access to a screen for viewing. Other than that, everything was fine.
My wife and I both use canes. Although I had checked in 24 hours before the flight and noted we would be checking two roll-on bags, the machines at the check in area did not produce luggage tags, and staff were unwilling to help unless we joined the long queue, a very difficult challenge. We opted to take the bags on board and, of course, were relieved of the jells and scissors in the bags at security. On board crew were then unhelpful in hoisting the bags into the overhead bins.
Long flight - free food options not reasonable. Drinks fine. Good flight crew.
Other than flights being cancelled and 3.5 hours late causing missed connections it was ok.
I would like to review the next flight from Toronto to Fort Myers as it was a disaster!!
Seats too small and too cramped, I have stomach cancer and I threw up after the flight . No advance boarding for disabled people. No aisle seats available for disabled people who have to use the washroom frequently. No space for cabin baggage for disabled people who have to carry bulky medications or equipment to use on the flight. Baggage rules and fees are ridiculous. I have been an aeroplan member for 30 years and I fly frequently, but from now on I will choose offshore carriers. .
Every person and every experience with Air Canada was excellent. All customer service was outstanding and done pleasantly. The notifications through their App were timely and informative. This airline shines. All other airlines should take training from them.
Better than usual. We’ve flown air Canada for years at least once or twice a year and used it to bring our Canadian American son back and forth from USA and Canada and Europe and we have had MANY bad experiences with late flights, missed connections, boarding issues, for almost 10 years. Just lots of bad experiences. This one wasn’t bad at all. It’s simply what we expected. Even though the first flight this time was 45 min late in leaving due to a maintenance issue, that didn’t mess us up. But all else was fine so we were pleased.
All good, but plane outdated, seat uncomfortable, food that we had was 4 out of 10. Crew was great!
Lack of crew staffs to handle emergency medical situations that ending no meal served and only hot water and bag of pretzels served for business class!
The app and the information given at the counter did not match
The experience was pleasant overall, but my row was entirely missed by the snack / drinks service and the audio port for the entertainment only worked for one of my headphones due to a defective audio jack.
I am a senior and I was travelling with 2 other friends and they got their email for check in and I didn’t then when we went to checkin my boarding pass had me as standby so you can imagine that I was in a panic wondering if I was coming home to Ottawa airport with them or not. I finally was able to get help at the counter and she was very helpful, but this worrying takes all the fun out of a great vacation. I certainly will not be flying anywhere again. I know this isn’t only Air Canada’s problem but thanks for letting me rant.😁
