Bad check in experience. Dirty ancient aircraft. Truly awful food and this in Business/ First class.
Very friendly and helpful staff on board and United was excellent when I missed my onward flight due to the delay in London. Very well organised meant much less stress
First time flying with UA and it was a great experience. Thank you
Staff on board was excellent. Positive upbeat helpful- like it used to be.
United has come a long way, it’s been a fantastic experience traveling with them.
The flight attendants were very rude, beyond comprehension. I took a business class from London to SFO for the first time on United. When I asked for a second piece of bread during dinner, the serving attendant threw a 3rd bread on my plate and said, “here. You can have this one too”! I couldn’t believe the rudeness of the attendant. Most all attendants were very rude, unhelpful, sing the food was absolutely disgusting. Never fly United internationally in business class. My flight back to SFO was a nightmare!!
For both flights I requested a gluten free meal, they didn’t have one nor were there other options.
Our experience on United Airlines was extremely poor. The plane was extremely cold throughout our entire flight- which multiple people complained about- and we had to wait 2 hours to get a blanket which was too thin and barely helped warm us up. As well as this, none of the entertainment features were working so we had to sit through a roughly 10 hour flight with nothing to keep our attention, including the actual flight path screen. It was an extremely disappointing experience and I would hope that this gets fixed if we ever choose United Airlines again.
Cabin crew was very friendly, requests were satisfied promptly and cheerfully, and the cabin was reasonably clean when I boarded. The United lounges at Newark and Heathrow are always well-run and comfortable, especially Newark. I look forward to the new lounge that will be part of the rebuild of Terminal 2 at Heathrow.
The senior flight attendants were amazing. Totally different vibe from other carriers. Easy 10 hour flight in Business Class. Great food. Good humor as well.
Poor service. Check in person at the COUNTER was ruthless and threaten to call police instead to look for better plan or actions. VERY MANERLESS lady. KICKED US OUT OF OUR RESERVATIONS. ABSURD
There was very little premium experience. The check in was awful with a 40 minute line and service making me feel like I was putting them out. The lounge and gate experience was scattered and not well organized. the only good thing was the seat. Food was bland and barely edible. Overall I found it wasn't premium at all rather a cheap low class experience.
My seat was at the very back of the aircraft, and there was no overhead space available near my seat. The flight attendant told me to go back towards the middle of the aircraft to store my carry-on luggage. I politely explained that I would do so once boarding was completed and the aisle was clear, as passengers were still boarding behind me and it was impossible to move against them. However, she kept insisting that I go back immediately, speaking to me in a very rude and aggressive manner. The situation escalated unnecessarily, and I found her attitude extremely unprofessional and unacceptable.
The seat configuration was insane. Horrible. Had to jump over sleeping people to go the bathroom. The food was the best we’ve had in any Business class.
Our plane was delayed for an hour because they had the wrong tow truck that pulls the plane out of the gate. An hour late just to find the right vehicle that pushes the plane out of the gate area! The delay made us barely make our connecting flight but of course our luggage didn’t make it. So no luggage when we arrived at our destination.
Best: Flight attendants. Worst: Bags took forever to receive at LAX despite being tagged Priority - at least a 35 minute wait.
It was one hour 15 minutes late taking off so we missed our connecting flight in Philadelphia.
Crew did a great job, but aircraft was old and bitterly cold. Arrived early in CLT but had to wait for 30 mins for a gate. I knew in the plane what time we were arriving 8 hours before landing and it's basically an American Airlines airport, think they would have had space for an international flight lined up lol
This aircraft was much better than the one we took two weeks ago to Edinburgh. The legroom was fantastic (two rows in front of our seats on the last trip), the seats were more comfortable, and the overall experience was improved. The movie selections are awful, unless one likes violence, intense contention, and sexual content. The so-called family films are limited to animations in spite of the many quality live-action films actually geared towards families. A note to Kayak and the survey engineers engaged to gather meaningful data for future passengers and possibly their clients: in many instances, the data you gather is skewed because you provide no "N/A" options, which forces one to choose an option that is not representative of the experience. I recommend your surveys and questionnaires undergo a serious review and update so that the data you collect is meaningful and represent accurate conditions and responses.
Cabin crew were good Food could be a lot better
I paid for Business class and was given a window seat. The problem is there was a rude inconsiderate person directly beside me who told me she didn't want to be woken during her 8.5 hour sleep on the overnight flight. I had to use the bathroom and was unable to get over her seat to use the bathroom. This was poor seating for a business class passenger. In addition, no one helped me with the screen to watch TV, so I wasn't even able to watch the screen. This was the most miserable flight I've ever taken. Economy would have been better for someone needing to use the bathroom.
Dear Air Europa Baggage Claims Department, I am writing regarding my baggage claim, reference number JFKUX13455. My baggage was delayed and was delivered to me later than expected. When I received my suitcase, I discovered that the suitcase itself had been significantly damaged. Unfortunately, when I opened my suitcase, I also discovered that many of my personal belongings were missing from inside the suitcase. Several items that I had packed before my journey were no longer there. In addition, three cartons of cigarettes that were packed inside my suitcase were also missing. The missing personal belongings include the following items: - Prada sunglasses — $450 - Ray-Ban sunglasses — $300 - Dolce & Gabbana perfume — $185 - Three newly purchased clothing items from Turkey — $200 - Two pairs of slippers — $280 - Coach handbag — $395 - Newly purchased suitcase — $75 Total value of the listed items: $1,885 The suitcase itself was newly purchased, and I have the original receipt showing the purchase price of $75. I also have purchase records and credit card transaction records for several of the missing items. The three cartons of cigarettes were also packed inside the suitcase and were missing when I received my baggage. I have photographs of the damaged suitcase and supporting documentation regarding my purchases. At the moment, I am unable to upload all of the photographs and documents, but I can provide them as soon as I am able to do so. I respectfully request that Air Europa consider the delay of my baggage, the damage to my suitcase, and the missing personal belongings and other items from inside my suitcase as part of my claim. Please let me know if you require any additional information or documentation from me. I am prepared to provide receipts, purchase records, photographs, and any other supporting evidence necessary to process my claim. Thank you for your attention to this matter. I look forward to your response and to a fair resolution of my claim. Sincerely, Çiğdem Karasu Claim Reference: JFKUX13455
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.
Boarding was a shitshow. Had to bus to the gate. No separate bus and boarding process for Business Class.
Need to pay for a cup of water. No food. Need to pay for headsets.
Everything should improve! Service like a low cost but prices like a premium airline. Crew in general with bad manners arguing for everything. You pay for priority access but then they use buses, so your loose your advantage to put your carry on first. That was the purpose for paying for priority. Bording is a nightmare, people accessing the plane for bothering doors, front and rear, no matter which line do you have.
Terrible experience - we won’t be flying with Air Europa again
Impossible to check in via the App. Kept on getting emails offering upgrade. When followed through not available. Wasn't any food anyway.
Great experience, I just wish airline seats were more comfortable in general.
I was in flights from sap paulo <-> Madrid, the last one 11/15/21, That takes around 10:30 hour. Can you imagine that is served only a POOR meal after one hour of flight and nothing more??? We don’t have any service (besides in the morning a payed kart) or crew working in anything more than masks control. You need to pay for water / coffee is reasonable ? Even if you consider as low cost flights that you payed around U$ 700, courtesy and education should be showed by crew, things that Air Europe should learn to their employees on the airplane, a very rude people!!! It was not with me, but a complain for a lot people around. I have never been treated Like this before. Air Europa your journey will be short walking in this road. I, a constant traveler, will never more flight with you. I don’t need this kind of services!
There was confusion over the electric wheelchair. Though it was categorized and double checked at checking the gate seemed confused by the chair.
Boarding was a mad rush as people still had issues with boarding passes and groups 3- 7 were asked to board when travelers were still stuck behind the document check. Food was one of the worst I’ve ever had in an Economy flight. The crew was very friendly though
We were delayed 2 hours because the crew was late. They need better planning by the crew, we had to sit in uncomfortable seats waiting for them.
Difficulty to check in online, but well handled at the airport. Flight delay was unfortunate. Crew was adequate but not what we have usually experienced from BA. Seat was not comfortable.
Charging $300 to be able to pick a seat next to your wife was nothing less than extortion.
I’m very mad because I paid an extra $105 to change seats to an exit row with more leg room. The app clearly showed a gap in between the seats in the row I changed my seat to and I paid for it. When I boarded the plane, it wasn’t an exit row seat and no more room than my original seat. I feel like I was ripped off $105.
I had a great experience , crew was great and enjoyed the entertainment options I will be booking my next International trip with them .
Front desk was closed at 6 pm, I was unable to get my boarding pass and as such missed my connecting flight home.
Overall a great. However, the seating is way too narrow, for guys with any shoulder width. Luckily the crew moved the guy next to me, or it would have been miserable.
The plane was not well maintained. The entertainment system didn’t work properly, eg moving map. Many of the seat controls did not work. Cabin temperature fluctuated considerably during the flight. The seat allocated was poor, it was noisy and offered no privacy. The perfume in the toilet triggered severe allergies. Crew was very goid.
It’s a new plane, but the most important detail is that the economy class seat doesn't recline—it’s completely fixed. The only one that reclines is in Comfort Class.
The seats were the worst I have ever flown Too narrow, did not recline and the actual seat was hard as a rock. I will tell all travelers to stay away from Avianca flights.
Staff are the rudest in the industry … awful customer service … will never fly Avianca again
Horrible experience. Flight cancelled. Arrived at destination 12 hs later. No one gave us an answer or any information. Very very poor service. We won’t ever travel again with Avianca
Usb plugs for charging your phone does not work in every flight. uncomfortable chairs even in higher categories.
The check in is the only positive thing in Avianca. The seat is the most uncomfortable I have traveled, the distance is minimal.
Almost we lost our connection from Bogota to Aruba 🥴 Because we get out late from the plane of Medellin
Worst in 25 years. A 10 hours flight from Buenos Aires to Costa Rica and no free food! Then the food available for purchase was sold out in 5 minutes. I was travelling with two kids and wasn't ready to keep them happy with chips and cookies for such a long time. Avianca doesn't make sure that minors sit next to an adult so I was forced to pay 65 USD for each seat in a so called premium seat whic is exactly the same as the economy free seats. Never again with Avianca.
There is no food. There is no in-inflight entertainment. The seats are cardboard. The airline is a living hellscape.
I paid extra for seats up front, I expected unless the beverages wold be included,
