They lost my baggage and I still have not got it back. Disgrace

They lost my lauggage and I STILL HAVE NOT RECEIVED IT. NO ONE IS HELPING! PLEASE HELP FIND MY LOST LAUGGAGE

A disaster. Air France is a real joke. They overcharge us customers for absolutely nothing. Service was very poor, food was mediocre, entertainment non existent, etc. We paid thousands of dollars for our business class tickets and then we were told in Paris we could not access its lounge. Really Air France ? Congratulations on irritating your customers to the sky high level and ensuring we will do everything in our power to discourage others to travel with you.

They again did not offer any functioning WiFi in the transatlantic crossing.

The first half from DC to Paris was very good and the staff were very helpful and humble BUT flight from Paris to Mumbai was sad. 1) it was packed. 2) no space on head compartment 3) crews were unresponsive to the calls 4) one crew member literally banged the bottle of water after giving me glass of water. A little water splashed on me and she was unapologetic 5) with so many hours of flight, little leg space should be taken care else don’t fill your airline till brim which affects your crew and they remove anger on us. 6) huge line for washrooms. 7) 2nd half journey was pathetic

Flight was late over a hour just like the first one. WiFi was down.

Forty five minutes late for departure. Staff were pleasant. Food was adequate but not outstanding. Entertainment system was very good, as it usually is on Air France.

My only issue was my meal was inedible except for the sides.

Old cabine without flat bed in business for a 12 hour flight is not acceptable

Medíocre. The food wasn't good (although not bad, bad) and the staff wasn't kind. I asked for n extra blanket, the steward never came back, serving us roughly.

Take off and landing and also the crew were excellent, just we could not received one of our suitcases at Ottawa at the same time we got there, but the associate at Ottawa airport were very nice and helpful so we could receive it on 16th of September.

Flight was cancell at the last minute, We were rescheduled 3 different times and ended up barely making our connecting flight in Dulles ( an airport I will never voluntarily fly through again) The cause was a mechanical issue with air Canada. The many levels of non-ownership involved basically left us holding the bag. Flight was purchase on Kayak, who subbed it out to underpicerm who purchased it through United airlines , who subbed the outgoing to Lufthansa and the return flights to Air Canada. The efforts of the United staff in Lisbon and later in D,C, are the only reason this didn't fail completely. The worst single day of air travel I have encountered including trips that were cancelled. JIMD

Service was great. Flight was delayed an hour which made our connection very tight and stressful. But we fortunately made it.

flip down table not clean, lots of crumbs left on table from previous customer!

They served us 1.5 pieces of chicken nuggets with coleslaw..felt like a toddlers meal in business class. Why bother?

Boarding was terrible. We paid for business class tickets, which would give us “Zone 1” boarding. This should happen before the zones for premium economy and economy passengers start to board. However, the gate agents at Heathrow only had “Zone 1” boarding for about 45 seconds before moving on to allowe “Zone 2” and “Zone 3” to start boarding. We still weren’t through the line to board and many passengers from zones 2 & 3 pushed ahead of us to board (it was a completely full flight). When we finally did get on the plane, there were no overhead storage compartments for rows one or two in business. Apparently this is the way that Boeing 787 planes are designed, which is frustrating to pay thousands more dollars for a ticket and then find out that there is no space to store your carry on. Finally, we got food poisoning from the sandwiches and scones with clotted cream that were served in business class. Barely was able to get home to our condo in Toronto after the flight before suffering from vomiting and diarrhea. What was supposed to be a splurge on the end of our vacation in business class instead turned into a nightmare and the absolute worst way to end a trip.

Went on an earlier, standby flight, but was delayed so we only save 30 minutes getting to Toronto. AND we were in business class on our original flight but had to go in economy on the earlier flight because pilots and crew “had to” go business. What?!?! The paying passenger (I am Super Elite) has to go economy so they can dead-head employees? That’s messed up. As in my other posts, I only take AIr Canada because there is little other choice for the destinations I need to get to. But I am not proud to show my Super Elite tag on my luggage.

Flight was delayed due to mechanical issues with in-house entertainment. Strike one for the delay, strike two for no entertainment. Once we boarded we still had to wait while they tried to fix the entertainment system. Strike three was an issue with a passenger falling in the lavatory so no breakfast was served for economy seats. Not blaming the passenger but did the entire crew have to attend to one person? She walked off the plane by herself so she didn’t seem that bad off. Pretty much everything that could go wrong did but at least we got our luggage!

Worse. My luggage was carried on another flight, I was never advised that and had to wait 4 long hours to get my luggage at Pearson. The first flight was delayed, the layover at Munich was extremely short. I almost missed my second flight. Air Canada + Germans was not a good combo. I'm done with Air Canada, will never fly with them

Terrible. Frequent last minute flight cancellations with terrible rebooking options!
