Stewardess was not attentive at all asked for a bottle of water never came by 15 minutes later I asked her she said that she forgot there was only 12 people in first class and two stewardess unacceptable I ordered the fish was the last person to order. They said that they did not have any had to have a different item pasta at the inside of it because I was diabetic. Worst experience I ever had will never travel this airline again.

It’s got the tightest seats of any airline - my knees were smashed for 3 hours - absolutely awful.

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

30 minutes still don't have gate number, ask many people can't get answer.

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.

The crew was super friendly and helpful. The food was quite good. An overall positive experience.

the seats were bad and uncomfortable and the food was not tasty.

The crew was amazing. I appreciate the level of professionalism in the Iberia crew.

A more organized boarding experience and better food would have made the experience better.

Flight cancelled, lost a day of travel where we were trying to meet friends we couldn't meet. Iberia website is very difficult to navigate and has lots of dead links. If you do not speak Spanish it is even harder. Tried communicating on their WhatsApp and that was also close to impossible. We were told we'd be compensated 150EU's for this cancelled flight but there is no avenue towards rectifying this issue. I've had to take it up with my credit card to contest the charges and not pay for a flight that didn't happen but doubt I will ever be reimbursed for my two Ubers to the airport where we never even departed or the 150EU's we were told we would receive. I would never fly Iberia again. Clown show.

My long-haul flight experience with this airline was not very pleasant. Earphones were paid, and no eye mask or other amenities were provided. The meals were served in cardboard boxes with plastic cutlery. The restroom was unclean and ran out of toilet paper. However, the boarding process was smooth and well organized.

We experienced a delay of almost two hours before takeoff. For a flight of more than 10 hours, sitting on the runway for two hours is quite exhausting. The airline did nothing to attend to the passengers during that time. We were not given any courtesy drinks or snacks—only the bare minimum during the flight. The crew seemed very apologetic, but apparently they have restrictions imposed by the airline, because despite their friendliness, they provided strictly what was necessary and, of course, everything else was for sale. However, after a two-hour delay, one would expect at least complimentary beverages. In addition to this, the space between the rows of seats is inhumanely narrow. Air Europa should review this for such long flights and be a bit more considerate and humane with its customers.

I flew in business a couple of months ago, it was great, tried again in economy, it is the cramped seat I have ever been into, for an overseas flight across the atlantic it is inhumane to put passengers in such cramped space. Other than that, everything ok. Took a second flight from Madrid to London, also economy and it was roomy and perfect.

No WiFi on the plane. Crew was insensitive to my medical supplies and medicine in my carry on. If the crew was monitoring passengers putting 2 bags in overhead bins there would be room. We sat for 2 hours extra. Iberojet is horrible never again.

There was no water in one of the sinks in the executive area, which is unacceptable as we could not wash our hands after using the restroom

Like I said the experience was mediocre. Nothing special about this airline.

This flight was delayed by more than an hour. The seats are uncomfortable ans do not recline properly. I prepurchased a wifi pass, but wifi was not working on this flight at all. The food was bland.

Food situation was bad. Also movie choices when compared to other airlines was terrible. Seats very narrow. My tv didn’t work.

I was not allowed to cancel the flight, customer service is atrocious

Great staff, just very far from the main terminal, had to run to connect my flight. I had 90 minutes to spare. But my flight from Chicago was delayed also.

Food and entertainment were not available, so my rating on those items isn't actually correct. There should be a "Not relevant" or "Didn't use it" option.

I liked almost everything (e.g. ease of booking, price, punctuality, efficiency, friendliness, courtesy). A slam landing in Dublin airport took some of the gloss off it, though. Being able to paste here the text of the review of the same flight that I just wrote for Ryanair would make me feel better about Kayak too.

Delay in boarding with no explanation why. Stood for about 40 mins waiting to board

Rubbish moved my seat don’t know why same seat configuration cost me extra so me and my wife could sit together now I know why no paper ticket so they can do this

Slow and delayed boarding, including standing outside 15m in -3 temperatures, Late take-off approx 45 mins Very slow bag delivery approx 45 min - no explanation

The flight boarded nice and early and this meant there was no sudden rush at the gate. The only down side was the cabin was very cold 🥶

Nothing unexpected considering it is a Ryanair flight. It does the job. Nothing above, at all.

Flying from Newquay was an absolute dream! Would 100% recommend flights from there!

It would have been better if I was not ill so I didn't go and I didn't come back and I could not transfer my tickets to a later date as Ryanair stop flying from Manchester at the end of October till next year

Staff were very professional. Much better than the outgoing flight from Dublin. Seat cushions were practically non existent. Making for a very uncomfortable flight.

You need to make signage at Berlin Airport clearer. Having checked in online we had our boarding passes onlour phones. You do not make it clear that you need to check in again to receive a printed luggage tag. You get to baggage drop off and it says you can only do it with a luggage tag BUT not how to get this.

We were bumped despite seats existing on flight While checkin attendants were helpful Easyjet management was not. Only after threats were we allowed on plane at last minute. The online help desk was useless and waste of time (over an hour of useless chats)

It was good except they could offer free water and tea/coffe

Sat at rear of aircraft and was very cold. As a frequent flyer for many years, this is was the coldest I have ever been. Other passengers and some crew were complaining how cold it was. Sitting near the doors always risks being colder, just the way the aircraft works - but this was exceptional, bring a good jumper. Everything else was pretty standard easyJet - good value low cost carrier.

The best budget airline in Europe. Flight was on time, crew friendly and worked hard during flight and were able to meet our needs. Only downside (not the airline's fault), there were no rear steps.

It was transportation nothing more. I will give a positive rating over Ryanair. We missed our Ryanair flight the night before and received rude and unconcerned treatment from the Ryanair customer service. It was late. We were very tired and stressed after doing our best to get to the airport. The so called customer service ladies were completely unconcerned from the start. Aside from that, the flight to London seemed to be their opportunity for advertising. No time to relax as attendants were constantly in the aisle selling. I will never fly Ryanair again!!

Boarding and disembarking were smooth. Not offering free water was cheap ... I've never encountered that before on a flight.

Boarding could be better. To get through your gate but to be stood in a corridor for 20 minutes is not great.

The plane was postponed for over 2.5 hours, which meant that all four of us missed the check in time for our ongoing trip to Melbourne. We had to buy new tickets for 4 people as we had to forfeit the ones we had. The cost was really unfair. i understand that it was snowing during the first leg of the plane for that morning. Surely the cost could have been shared by the airline and not all by us. I could have bought insurance - but you can see how much I travel. I will need to chose more trustworthy airlines.

The true is that travel from London to Faro on 11/12/2025 by BA was cancelled, so I did not go to Faro, so i did not board easy flight. The mediocre qualification to you was because even when i bought an insurance, i could not change date neither obtain reimbursement. It could be ideal if you do something in order for me not to lose the purchase Thank you

Overall good, bigger chairs in the future would be nice.

I loved the food choices and the attentiveness of the crew but boarding was chaotic.

Great flight, last one out the air-conditioning was far to hot and the return it was to cold and then issued blankets. On the outward bowned the headset connector didn't work properly. You had intermittent sound from the audio socket.

My experience with British Airways was fine and dandy. Nothing truly negative to report. However, I was. asked to check my carryon bag all the way through to my desitination which prompted some huge problems. Thank goodness I kept a foldable-personal-item-bag in my carryon. I was asked to remove my valuable electronic belongings from my personal item bag, which was a camera bag full of expensive lenses and camera equipment, into another bag for the flight because it was "too big". Farbeit from me for asking further questions, but the bag was let through when I departed to Paris from America with no problems at all as I was able to explain that it was slightly oversized due to being a camera bag with a layer of protective foam which made it slightly larger. Still, this bag could and did fit perfectly under my airplain seat during my departure from America. On the flight back though, this was not the case and I was asked to remove highly valuable personal items, stow my camera bag in my checked bag, and then had to pay and overweight fee. Kinda bogus, but I was tired and wanted to get home so I complied. Regardless, it would have been nice to have had my bag retrieved during the London to Pittsburgh flight so I could put on new clothes and freshen up before take off.

The staff was extremely friendly and nice. Overall, the flight was pleasant, and the food was good. They asked me to check in my smaller cabin luggage suitcase in Mumbai as the flight was full. Fortunately, I had packed a spare set of clothes in my laptop bag so I was okay.

Flight was delayed by over two hours and that meant my connecting flight was in jeopardy but there was no acknowledgement or help from the BA staff

The gate agent made me check my carry-on in Denver, even though I've traveled all over taking this case on the plane. Beware folks. Food in Premium Economy was quite good - excellent blanket! Flight attendants on the Heathrow-to-Budapest flight on 3-27-2026 were quite snappy. I got a frown when asked to unscrew the water bottle cap for me (I had a cast on my right arm). Also woke up right when they were handing out biscuits. She had given my rowmates one and was in the process of giving water when I asked for a biscuit. She scolded me and said, "You snooze, you lose". She did give me one, but I thought that comment was uncalled for.

Business class on British Air with the Airbus 320 means the same seating as main cabin ( 3 - 3), but with the middle seat of each three-seat row blocked off to become a platform/table. This is decidedly NOT a business class experience. Other aspects of the flight were fine.

I Keep your expectations to low to middling with BA, or most European/ US airlines these days.

Wish the food and overall service was better. They treat Business class passengers same as economy
