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
Reserve check-in was very slow compared to regular check-in. Internet was slow
I had checked in online the day before but was instructed to collect our boarding passes when we arrived. I am not completely comfortable using the automated Kiosks and always enjoy the nostalgia of speaking with someone when checking in for a flight. Upon doing so however, we were immediately asked,"did you check in online already?" To which I replied, "yes, but we were asked to retrieve our boarding passes upon arrival." She then said, "that's what those machines over there are for. We really encourage people to use those." That unfortunately sparked a series of shortness and overall poor behavior in my opinion from the woman who checked us in. I understand it was early in the morning but I am always excited to experience flying and that interaction has unfortunately left a bitter taste in my mouth to the point I will forever now hesitate to book with Porter again. Thank you for taking the time to read this. Cheers, JD
Porter is the airline that does care. All trips with Porter have been smooth and relaxing. The extras are the customer appreciation. The others just don’t do that.
Delayed by 5+ hours and they give a voucher for only $20 CAD which isn’t even redeemable at any place with edible food. Then took almost an hour to clean craft after it landed. And nonsensical boarding delayed even further. We didn’t leave until 1:30am….
I travelled in Business class for the first time and wish I could do that again.
At 6'2" the seat space was very cramped for economy. Otherwise good.
During the pre-departure safety briefing, the flight attendants rushed through the mandatory safety announcements in both official languages, making it difficult for passengers to clearly understand the instructions. Given the importance of these messages for passenger safety, this lack of clarity was concerning. Perhaps use a recoded message to alleviate this concern. Additionally, the flight attendants appeared to lack the professional attentiveness typically expected during a flight. Rather than focusing on timely and courteous service, they seemed more engaged in personal conversations than in addressing the needs of passengers. I hope this feedback is taken constructively and helps in maintaining the high standards of professionalism and care that travelers expect from a national carrier: AC.
Some help when I asked but everything was so confusing to figure out otherwise. More clarity to direct through procedures needed!
It was awful. For a 37 minute flight time,we had 1:30 hours delay. If someone had a connection flight he or she couldn’t reach for sure. The only positive point was online check in.
It went well until they lost my baggage in Toronto. Bagging tracking stopped after my bag was unloaded in Toronto. My bag tag has been inactive since. I had over a 2 hour layover and there is no excuse for lost baggage with that time frame and only after one flight
The flight was on time, staff were professional and friendly. It was a great traveling experience overall. Thank you!
We were “bumped” from our rebooked flight after having a boarding pass and seat assigned. No explanation except that the Air Canada Service rep said that they “f’d up”. This is after a previous 5 hour delay in Amsterdam.
Not being allowed to use anything other than visa to buy food is embarrassing and upsetting. I have a debit card which has actual money on it to be used immediately but they only accept Visa which has theoretical money. I was hungry and they had food and I had to go without while Everyone Else Around Me Ate. It was horrible and unfair.
