Find cheap flights to Portland

Everything in Premium economy, the food, comfort and the whole experience

Nothing, except missing breakfast because for the first time ever, I was fast asleep on an aeroplane!!!

Staff of KLM were friendly.

Despite checking in online and selecting a window seat, I ended up in the middle seat of the middle row with two large neighbours and I had half of each in my seat.

Assigned middle seat away from my friend who was also assigned a middle seat. Overweight sprawler on either side made for incredibly uncomfortable flight.

It was on time

No entertainment for adults

Entertainment system

No food, beverage service very limited.

Dear Seema, We spoke just now. I had booked a flight from Reykjavik to Stockholm (via Copenhagen) through Kayak.com for 2 passengers, Tushar Kamat (myself) & Priyanka Kamat (my wife). I had indicated a travel date of 6th Oct during my booking, but for some strange reason,, the ticket got issued for 4th Sep (yesterday). My credit card also got charged for the full amount and I received an e-ticket yesterday. Later during the day yesterday, I received a mail from Flight Network (which I guess is the travel portal used by Kayak.com) stating that the 1st leg of the flight (Reykjavik to Copenhagen) on 4th Sep got cancelled. The mail from Flight Network is appended in the mail below. Firstly, my travel date was never supposed to be 4th Sep, and it was always supposed to be 6th Oct, since I am still in India and have not even started my Scandinavia trip. Secondly, since the 1st leg of the flight was cancelled by the airline, the 2nd leg made no sense for me anyways, since my end destination was always supposed to be Stockholm, and not Copenhagen. Since the cancellation has occurred at SAS end (and even the incorrect booking date seems to be an error not at my end), I would request you to organise for a full refund of the Reykjavik to Stockholm flight fare for me & my wife to me. This amount was charged to my credit card by Kayak.com so would appreciate it if you could either get the full amount refunded to my credit card, or organise for the amount to get transferred online to my bank account. I would look forward to your prompt response. Thanks, Tushar

Getting off the plane

Arrogance of crew, I guess it's what's expected and the norm nowadays

I have flown LHR - DUB a couple of times in the last month with BA and a couple more times in the last year from LHR-DUB and not once has the flight left LHR on time and landed in DUB on time. I find this very frustrating, they appear to always be delayed by 1hr + which make it very challenging to make onward travel plans and has resulted in overnight stays at my own expense.

friendly personnel

boarding procedure

My seat..... No row in front of it. Crew were excellent. Friendly and professional Had a TVs show I've been wanting to see, Blackish, which we don't get in the Uk

Choice of films. I've seen a lot of them and the rest were awful Why do flights always serve chocolate biscuits, chocolate ice cream, chocolate cake? Strawberries,carrots and humous, grapes, olives, would make a nice alternative for example. Hot food boring, tasteless

Sat in the aisle seat on the last row of the Airbus 330. Was somehow invisible to some of the crew who bumped me every single time they went past, forgot that I was supposed to get food, drinks or rubbish collected. Also three overhead bins were left open during take off. Entertainment is limited to 4 movies, 8 TV shows and radio, unless you pay an additional £4. Also this was the first long haul flight, charter or otherwise that charged for all drinks except tea and coffee served with meals. Would avoid in the future.

The staff were amazing considering we had an hour and a half delay and checked in to the flight manually! I felt bad for them actually, as it clearly wasn't their fault, but they are on the front line and had a deal with some very upset customers.

I had to stand in line for and hour and a half while the staff tried to figure out why the computer system wasn't working. When the system decided that it really wasn't going to work, we had to check in manually, which doesn't seem very safe to me! I had a handwritten boarding pass, and luggage label! The flight was then delayed further and we ended up being and hour and a half delayed. Again, the staff were amazing with what they had to deal with, but I do wish that there was a representative from Thomas Cook to talk to us while we were in line at check in. Tanoy announcements didn't cut it really.

Quick boarding, when it did eventually happen, almost 45 minutes late, due to late arrival of incoming flight.

I didn't like arriving at a different terminal and then having to walk through long corridors for nearly 10 minutes. I didn't like having to wait over 40 minutes for my baggage in a hall where the lights kept being turned off and on. I didn't like that there was no official there to apologise and offer some compensation, even in the way of a coffee voucher. I didn't like the fact that the luggage customer service guy couldn't get anyone in loading to answer his call, and that his only option then was to fill out a report. Not really much help to the guy whose wheelchair had so far failed to materialise. I didn't like the total lack of explanation or apology when it became clear that our luggage had seemingly been loaded on a later flight and that we were waiting for that plane to land. I didn't like that there are about 10 seats in the entire baggage hall, totally inadequate when a flightfull of people is waiting. Finally, I didn't like that it took 80 from the plane landing to my leaving the car park.

WE were delayed by a computer breakdown at Check in followed by the Captain informing us that some passengers had not turned up but their luggage was on board. We waited for a physical check on boar and then left the stand to taxi away only to be informed by the Captain that the luggage was still on board! We thentytaxied back to the stand for a fw more minutes to be told everything was correct.The passengers and luggage were matched.

Seating was comfortable with good leg room for my husband who is tall.We had a needy passenger beside me and the stewardess did her utmost to accommodate and make us comfortable for which we were grateful.

Breakfast was poor (a piece of cake ),and not enough tea/coffee offered during the flight.

Nice plane, lovely crew. A minor detail, but very pleasant: the ever-changing "mood lighting" in the cabin, the overall color changing every ten minutes or so. Surprising how much less boring such a small detail can make a space when you have to sit there for seven hours at a time. :)

Nothing really

Flight moved to split due to bad weather at Dubrovnik. No one at split was there to answer our questions. We missed our connecting flight from Rome to Budapest coz of the delay. Further our baggage was sent to Budapest when we clearly told them we missed our connecting flight and hence baggage should be sent to Rome.

Nothing

We missed it bcoz of bad weather at Dubrovnik. When we reached Rome after like 10 hrs from the scheduled time, we were offered another flight to Budapest the following day i.e.24th oct. however we couldn't take it as it was reaching much later in the day and we would have missed another of our scheduled flights to back home. The staff were unhelpful when we asked for a flight the same day. Hence we had no choice but to book another flight to Budapest the same night at an additional cost. Hence we would like to get a refund for the Rome Budapest flight which we missed coz of no fault of ours

The best aspect was the high quality and well considered children's entertainment pack. Lovely sticker albums and puzzles, as well as a cosy blanket that turns into a back pack

It's a shame that food is not included in the flight. The flight wasn't cheap or low cost, but for a long haul transatlantic airline to not provide food makes it feel budget

Seat 8G does not have a window.

Efficient, early, friendly.

Lack of lounge at Funchal is a downside

Good seat

Was made to pay for baggage although my hand luggage is within the requirements set by BA. It was fine in the gauge in Gatwick the week before. This is very disappointing.

Even for a 50 minute flight, drinks and sandwich was provided

Not time departure and cabin crew were effective and efficient.

Nothing really

Entertainment was good

Seats are very small

Extra luggage allowance (2x 23kg per adult) and children's entertainment pack. Children's television options are limited, but adequate

No food served - only soft drinks and tea, although it's acceptable for a such a short flight.

First class cabin, not as good as some middle eastern airles but, nevertheless good.

4 hour delay on takeoff

Gate staff controlled the gate area with regard q'ing an priority boarding. Cabin crew were friendly and professional. Flight departed on time and arrived early Breakfast was server 75 minutes prior to landing, allowing for a longer sleep.

Old cabin , old IFE , old seats Arrived early , even with the usual Heathrow stack, held up parking at gate due to departing aircraft in the T5 Cul de sac

?

The seat in this plane is the narrowest and most uncomfortable I have ever encountered in business.

We arrived in one piece.

I fly a lot and I understand turbulence. This was a very bumpy flight - the worst I have experienced. A reassuring word from the cockpit would have helped the more nervous among the passengers, particularly as the pilot ascended and descended and the FA was catapulted down the aisle. But not a word. Apart from that, it was a short flight, pretzels only and that's OK. No entertainment other than what you bring. The complete lack of knee room in Y was a discomfort.

Food was of a fairly high standard and so too was the entertainment. At least the Captain was honest in that he admitted KLM's baggage loading process was a mess and caused the delay.

A baggage loading problem meant that all baggage needed to be offloaded and then re-loaded......this took 2 hours and then another 20 minute delay due to congestion with air traffic over France! Where were the cabin crew during the delay? They may have not been onboard given their lack of visibility during the delay. The only time they appeared was to distribute a cutlet of water and a packet of dry biscuits. Inflight, apart from the meal service routines, on this 13+ hour flight the crew were notable for not being visible.

staff, airport

delayed boarding

Ease of boarding Quick flight Good crew

Baggage started to arrive at 13.30 , however the final bags did not arrive until 14.20. We were advised by handling agents that baggage had to wait until the inbound aircraft we arrived on was pushed back and on its way to Heathrow. Baggage delivery took as long as the actual flying time

Crew were courteous and efficient

Heathrow security undermanned; flight 30 mins late

Friendly crew in business class

Bed was angle lie flat. Meal service dragged on for too long.

Was good except for the food.

The hot snacks were bland to the point of being not worth eating and I didn't finish it. Probably attempting to be too ambitious with the available budget? I'd prefer a simple sandwich that focuses on quality. The food on the return flight was just as bad
