TAM is a real disappointment. We had to jump on a crowded bus for a 6am flight - although there were at least 15 available fingers that could have been used by our plane. Then, we were placed on row 30 - the last row of the plane, despite having purchased the tickets a long time ago and being TAM gold plus members. Note: worse seats on the plane. Great way of rewarding your frequent flyers TAM ! I now remember why I stoped flying internationally with TAM and moved to American, United, Swiss, Lufthansa and BA. TAM has no respect for its customers.

I do not speak Spanish or read in Spanish When asking for help, people were hard to find they spoke quickly and pointed a lot directions for where to go and what to do we’re unclear. Which made my traveling uneasy.

It was confusing because I got a notification that my gate was changed when in reality it wasn’t

I loved how polite the crew was even though some of them wasn't the best with English that they still done everything they could to help me with my needs food was amazing

It was ok for the most part, it is missing something

Hostile flight attendants. Second flight with Jose so much better. Arrived 1/2 hour early. Thanks.

Tough flight with turbulence… I was told by a fellow passenger that it is common. Nonetheless, very stressful. Cordial staff.

Pros: "Nothing as we could not take the flight."
Cons: "Allowing the option to change your ticket date, but failing all debit and credit cards payments offered, actually means that they are not allowing flight changes due to COVID related issues like they say they do. We had to book new tickets with another airline to get home."
Pros: "The crew were good."
Cons: "I wanted to change the returning day, but the charge was too much. More consideration for the client."
Pros: "Entertainment"
Cons: "You misled people not telling I have to pay for luggage"

Avianca flights to Galapagos and back and well organized and on time.

This is the Spirit of Latino travel. And don’t even get me started on customer service.

I flew with my service dog unfortunately they didn’t allow it to flight on the canine, but ok, the only problem was that when I arrived to Quito it took 1 hour to deliver my dog, they were supposed to deliver it the moment we get off the airplane.

Flight attendants to show up on time, offer drinks and food.

Avianca was organized in boarding and disembarking and all announcements were made in both Spanish and English 👍🏼

Pros: "The crew was nice. I had the front seats ehich were super comfortable."
Cons: "My wife lost the fly for delay in the first fly from Cúcuta to bogota"
Cons: "Got to the gate to check In no one was available called no one answered on the line on hold for 4h till some one picked up the phone and they wanted me to buy a new ticket"
Pros: "Cree was horrible handling the delayed flight eventually postponed until the next day"
Cons: "Better handling of the situation and not keeping people 2 hours in a plane with no air conditioning"
Pros: "The people on the plane were great."
Cons: "The San Salvador airport is chaotic and not user friendly."
