Business class points redemption - good value for points paid, dubious value if out of your own pocket, domestic class business product okay for this length of flight. The flight left and arrived on time, crew were good, aircraft was a bit old and tired, but still miles ahead of their competitors in Virgin and Jetstar.

Airline running better than post Covid, proper boarding process now implemented, some aircraft feeling a bit old and tired, crew fine, online experience better.
I tried to check in online but was unable to do so. I stood in line for nearly two hours to check in. American Airlines was understaffed. When I finally got to the kiosk to check in, I was still unable to check in. No AA staff was available to help. Finally one of the airport security agents who was helping passengers became of lack of AA Staff told me: “I think the reason you can’t check in is that you are starting your name with an upper case letter when you write it. Just write it with all lower case letters.” That did allow me to check in. HOW COULD ANYONE POSSIBLY KNOW THAT IF THEY USE AN INITIAL UPPER CASE LETTER TO SPELL THEIR OWN NAME, AA WOULD NOT ALLOW THEM TO CHECK IN?????? Then I had to wait in line over half an hour again to drop off my baggage. Although I arrived at the airport 3 hours early, by the time I got to the gate, they had already started boarding.
Was bumped to a later flight because of inefficiency on part of the airline.
Inflight entertainment, poor that there are no headrest screens on aircraft used for an international flight.
Delayed QF59 flight once again, Qantas doesn't fail in maintaining there delayed departures and arrivals. USB points do not work nor do the power point sockets on the plane, Qantas staff admitted that on the flight. Don't expect to your charge devices. Saving grace, was the ice cream. Bottom line, if you expect to fly to HND and make it on time avoid Qantas and if you're interested in ice cream - visit 7/11.
Their aircraft are old and amenities lack way behind other international carriers leaving from BNE. Even in economy
Airport and crew experience was excellent. We had to queue for the runway - no one’s fault, but it did mean we were 30 minutes late leaving
Overall good experience with flight and airport wheelchair staff. Also got Indian food in the flights
I liked the service, the menu, and the comfort of the seats! Even tho we were seated by the bathrooms, the reclining seats and movie selection was very good, my husband and I didn’t mind at all
Flight delayed by 90 min making for a 2 am check in at destination hotel.
I did not noticed baggage was separate - I had assumed international flights included luggage, so it surprised me I had to pay to check a bag.
Everything could have been better from the planes not being delayed to the rudeness of staff to it was just horrible will not use kayak again or Air Canada I can't see what would ever change my mind now
No room when you sit. Fell very cramped. Food was only ok. Service was acceptable. Entertainment system was very buggy.
Bad service as well. Another 3hr delayed flight from chicago to Charlotte.
The food on this 5 hour flight was a cookie or pretzels.
luggage and cary on were extra, as well as seat selection. $240.00 was added to the final price tag.
It was good except I was sitting beside a bigger gentleman so I didn’t have much room
The space for seats were uncomfortable and lack of leg room . I paid extra for more leg room. I’m not a big person.
Everything was good. Except Broken looking escape/exit doors over the wings need tending,
