As per usual when you Hit the UK it's a slow process through customs Not as efficient at Thailand for sure

There were no charge points for phones on the economy seats. The seats were comfortable overall. Food was okay.. flight was on time

The crew were unprofessional with a racist element. I was physically abused as well from one of the crew members

Empty seats next to me - wish it had been for a longer flight!!

Flight was on time, staff are friendly and helpful onboard.

Terrible last row seats many seats available but no offer to move to better seat

Delay and had to run between flight to get my connection due to this delay but besides that the overall experience was ok. I arrived with just an hour of delay.

The immigration hall in Amsterdam was understaffed, so passport checking was slower than it should be for a major airport. They need to get the automatic readers up and running for non EU passport holders. Waiting in line after a long flight feels a bit abusive.

First of all we couldn’t check in online, then we learn at the airport we were on stand by for KLM’s mistake of overbooking. The seats were not comfy at all. Our luggage got lost.

Ad experience - been flying many years with them but they are losing out to other carriers with their service and bagage / seating policy. My 2 12-yo kids were not placed with the parent. Absurdity.

They lost my bag and I still have not received it

Communication on the delay, rebooking and how to get a hotel was poor. Mails, airport check-in and transfer desk said different things.

Safe and stable made me sleepy and I slept and dreamt 😂😂😂😂

Worst airlines either. First leg was delayed because of crew not available. My connection was missed so they booked me automatically the next day! But, impossible to get anyone on site, web site does not let me access my reservation anymore, confirmed by useless agents over the phone. My 2-leg trip with part in business class arriving at 4:10pm ends up in an awful 3-leg arriving at 9pm the next day with no way to even choose the seats and of course at the very end of the plane. I can understand problems arrive but the way Air France handle it is just unacceptable. You are on your own. Apparently getting you to your destination is the only thing they consider their duty. The customer experience and fatigue is none of their concern. And I have a status with them. I will reconsider my priorities when flying with Air France and encourage everyone to do the same.

Excellent, Lima to Paris. But Paris to Amsterdam, delayed, missed my flight and KLM treated its missed flights passengers very badly, terribly bad. No hotel accommodation given. Passengers were told to find their own hotel accommodation and claim at reasonable rate and left the booth and literally with armed Police Officers listening to passengers complains. For three hours, after moving by Uber from hotel to hotel and calling and booking online, no hotel was available. I had to return to the airport and seat/sleep on the benches, suffering the cold, and rats running around until my new allocated flight the next day. It was the most terrible KLM treatment even seen and being a Business Class passenger. Still mentally suffering to date as a result.

3 hour delay but out of their control. App said I get vouchers but when I applied for them, they were nowhere to be found in my account

I bought business class tickets but the seats are exactly like economy with no comfort seats nor an empty seat next to me provided. Very poor, low quality airline.

The food was great and the service and attitude was amazing!!

It was a great experience. The only thing I would have changed was that the bathrooms were never cleaned and they got very dirty.

Old airplanes small seats expensive tickets, not as expected overall and not comfortable according to the price

Flight was fine - however my husband's checked in case was damaged, and mine still has not arrived

Excellent lie flat seat for premium economy! Great staff. Bad food . Not so great entertainment. My bag didn’t make it either.

The boarding procedure got confusing because they wanted to weigh everyone’s carry-on. Apparently mine was 3 1/2 kg over their limit. I didn’t know they had a limit. And at the check-in desk, nothing was said about this. They wanted me to check the carry-on at no charge and that would have been fine except then they told me at my connection in London I would have to go outside to baggage claim retrieve my bag, and then recheck it. In other words, they could not check it to my final destination, only to London. I told him this was unacceptable so after a few minutes of discussion, they came back and said that my bag would be OK to carry on the plane. It seems that if you have a connection then the weight is not as important. Then when I actually went to board the boarding agent said I needed a tag indicating that my bag had been weighed, even though she had just five minutes ago talked to the same person who cleared me. Lots of confusion seems like a very bad process. They need to improve this.

My flight being automatically moved messed up my travel plans, and I had to quickly find an alternative mode of transportation. I couldn’t get a refund from any of the companies involved. Kayak, Ibiza, or Vueling. I am still unsure of how to settle my concern.

I've taken British Airways before and it has been great. On this trip to Spain and Portugal we had two BA flights. On both flights we were taken by bus from the terminal out to the plane on the tarmac. There were many older folks on these flights, and to ask people in their 70s to lug their carry-on and personal items up the long mobile staircase to the plane entrance, is very disturbing. I won't be taking British Airways in the future. Many people on these flights were very unhappy.

The food on the flight was of marginal quality. Small bits of chicken, instant mashed potatoes and some carrots. The rolls were very dry, nearly inedible. The seats were quite small and didn’t allow for any shifting of position during the flight. There was limited leg room.0

Terrible customer service. I booked business class and the counter agent didn’t bother asking me about any choice or preferred seat, basically assigned me that last seat and couldn’t even answer if it was a business class seat. Also iberia lost my suitcase on my flight from JFK to MAD with the layover in BCN. Useless customer service at the counter. Thank goodness I happened to check the baggage claim area of the next flight in…there it was.

Delayed. Mismanagement of gate lines. Passengers arguing with eachother as a result of lack of organization by airline. Avoid this airline.

Left on time, arrived on time, despite weather, excellent service and food

It was fortunate that the flight arrived in London in accordance with schedule, and the luggage was promptly transferred to the luggage carousel. However, I find it concerning that even minor issues in economy cabins are prevalent within the industry. American Airlines, in particular, appears to have the least legroom and feels more crowded due to the proximity of neighboring passengers. Additionally, the crew’s adherence to protocol is inconsistent. While they may enforce certain rules set by the FAA on a select few individuals, they often overlook numerous violations, such as failing to reset seat recline during landing.

The whole experience was excellent, O can say out from Miami the best airline to travel with for any European destination. Since the ground staff to the inflight crew attention was great, service on board 10 of 10. Finally the 380 is very confortable and nice to travel.

All crew except 1 were excellent. When I asked assistance with business class seat conversion to a bed (not being familiar as never used before but have numerous times with other airlines) crew member helped very reluctantly. I should have told her that business class seat conversion is totally different in each airline such as Delta, New Zealand Air and United. Sorry it was my 1st time with America Airlines. Now I know, I won't bother asking assistance in future.

I had a mixed experience on this flight. The plane itself was comfortable, the flight was smooth, and the entertainment selection was excellent with plenty of movie options. However, the service fell short. I had an entire row to myself and fell asleep with a blanket over me. A flight attendant, Karleigh, woke me up to see if I had my seatbelt on, which felt unnecessary given the situation. Meanwhile, trash sat uncollected on the tray at the end of the row and was never picked up. During the second meal service, no one woke me up, and when I used the call button multiple times, there was no response. I eventually had to walk to the back to ask for assistance. There was also a long stretch without snacks, and when I requested something savory, I was dropped off sweet options, which wasn’t ideal. Overall, while the flight itself was comfortable, the lack of attentiveness and responsiveness from the crew made the experience disappointing.

The seats in Premier Economy were very comfortable. The food was better than average. The way British Airways handled our seating was atrocious.

The flight attendant does not pay attention to my "call" button more than 3 times when I need a drink.

Flight delayed, connection was not at gate listed and so missed, staff were rude at Heathrow, phone tree stupid and difficult, took me 21 actual hours to reach my destination. Almost lost my hotel reservation after walking in a strange city alone after midnight because they would not put me up in a hotel at sfo or heathrow. I will never fly BA again and will tell all people and Instagram followers never to fly BA.

British Airays fails to enforce its own guidelines regarding carry on size limits. There were MANY passengers with full suitcases stuffing them into the overhead compartments leaving no space for others, like me, who adhere to the posted sizes. I had to put my carryone bag into my foot space, in additon to my carryon personal item, leaving me cramped for a seven hour flight. I was in physical pain, and I attribute this entirely to staff unwilling to enforce limits. The infotainment system was horrible. the touchscreens did dot work correctly, and there was no information on system operation. I am 77 years old, and a lifelong movie-goer. I recognized ONE movie (and not much better TV shows). It seems that BA saves royalty money by limiting its move and TV selection to absolute rubbish. The FlightAware program is the worst informationsystm I have ever seen, it is completely worthless. I pay attention to the safety briefings...in the event of an emergency, one is supposed to assume the "brace" position, except the seats are so close together, front to back, that it is not possible to assume the position without striking the seat in front of you. at age 77, and a lifelong traveler, this is the worst flight experience I have ever had, and I will never fly British Airways again

Overall ok. Best part has always been the sundae dessert.

I’ve never been on a trans-Atlantic (or Pacific) flight where the seats don’t recline—not even a little. I asked my seat mate when BA starting doing this and he said “Oh, a few years ago.” I couldn’t sleep, with my head falling forward waking me continuously, and came off the plane incredibly stiff. I booked a Premium Economy seat to get a more comfortable seat, which was worse than most basic Economy seats I’ve ever booked.

Nice aircraft. Good crew. Delayed departure from Houston, but arrived on time in London. Main thing I don’t like about flying BA is having to transit through security in London Heathrow. A major pain!
