The staff was amazing. Best service I’ve had on an aircraft in a long time. Was not particularly happy with the food. Flight was at 10:50 and left home too early for breakfast and wasn’t able to purchase food at airport and felt for sure I could get some breakfast to buy on airplane. Nope as food was served around 11:30 and only one choice left (I was at 22C) so ordered the chicken dish thinking I’m getting a hot meal but cold chicken with rice and carrots etc. I was looking forward to a croissant sandwich and a hot cup of tea. The FA was kind to explain they were serving dinner at that time. She was lovely Other than the disappointment with the food the staff was amazing. On my return flight I will make sure to eat and take some food with me so I’m not hungry or disappointed. This was my second time ever flying Porter and will consider checking them when I next come to visit my daughter. Have to say it again best crew I’ve ever experienced on a flight and I travel quite a bit. Thanks.
I didn’t receive any help when they messed up and wasn’t honest and the supervisor did absolutely nothing to help me so I had to buy another ticket at $537
Due to a known technical error that Porter has not fixed in over a year, I was unable to check in the children on my reservation online and had to do it at the airport. Upon check in, there were no seats together, which was an issue as we had young children. The gate agent did manage to seat us together by moving other passengers, which was appreciated, but the other passengers were never informed, leading to confusion and delay upon boarding. The flight was over an hour late; no explanation or apology was ever issued. The bags on Porter take a long time to arrive--over half an hour at Hamilton on my inbound flight, and not much better on my return to Edmonton.
3.5 hr delay for a 1 hr work flight. No information as to why the delay until 20 mins before boarding.
This flight to St. Johns was really good. Boarding was a breeze. We left spot on time. Seats were actually pretty good. Recliner further than I expected. Three more flights to go we will see if this is the status quo for Porter.👍
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.
Staff were excellant. Only snacks served. Some turbulence so we were offered Free beer or wine.
The check-in staff, boarding staff, and flight crew were all very friendly. Really miss the Porter lounge in Ottawa.
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
Chaotic boarding, but mostly my issues are with Toronto airport
Bluetooth to use earphones with the onboard entertainment system failed. WiFi worked at least.
Pilot missed Fredericton airstrip on first go, so had to ascend again, turn around and try it again, successfully, albeit a little jittery...perhaps a new or inexperienced pilot. Not the greatest Air Canada experience. Delayed us even more.
The floor plan on the website indicated I was selecting a seat at the front of the cabin with ample leg room. In fact, I was in the row behind it. I should have wondered when the seat was free to upgrade, but it meant I traded an aisle seat three rows back for a middle seat, which was quite cramped. The Internet didn't work and the live TV didn't work until the last half hour of the trip. On a night of World Cup soccer games, not good.
I was through check-in right away and on the plane before I knew it perfect in every way
Flight was oversold. Seats assigned to multiple passengers. Delay 1 hour to sort out.
Comfortable seats with good leg room. But not screens on seat backs.
The flight was delayed and my luggage did not arrive. I paid the luggage fee in advance. Luggage was delivered the next evening but it was the wrong bag. 48 hrs I still do not have my luggage.
Wouldn’t allow my carry on because it just did quite fit the gauge Yet seen larger carry ons in the overheads The overheads were somewhat empty Lots of children Felt the flight attendant really didn’t have a real grasp on what she was trying to accomplish 6 people per row x say 40 rows - number of child = number of baggage allowed It’s all good though/ bring small backpack next time
My flight was canceled and next one was 1 hour later. The gate was changed 3 times.
Air Canada makes you cram tour carryon in a sizer - completely unnecessary. Staff is generally ruse although flight attendants on the plane were nice this trip. Even though we sat at the front of economy class and paid extra for the tickets even my wife felt crowded with little leg room. I a six feet tall and it was extremely uncomfortable for me.
