Airline reviews

The wine was low quality Finnair label stuff in small bottles and only one small bottle each. Embarassinng. A competing airline served me two generous glasses of a nice South African Shiraz from regular wine bottles, a Beck's beer, and a generous Dewar's White Label on the rocks. Cabin service was good and polite, plane interior was beautiful, but cramped.

All good- I love BA and the professionalism of the crew and pilots.

Great flight- smooth, nice crew, nice clean aircraft, departed a little late but arrived 10 early.

It was listed on my ticket as Finnair but there was no indication that the flight was Finnair. In fact the number was even different. There were no employees there until exactly 2 hours before so we had to wait in line at Iberia and hope

Sorting on line would have been appreciated Onward information on flights missed No ability to get seating arranged before we got to gate Very unfriendly at gate

The flight was Finnair but there was no indications anywhere that the checkin was for Finnair also. There was no one to ask. I think at a minimum they should list the code shares so people don’t stand in the wrong line for an hour.

I booked the flight with Finnair, which made the arrangements for downloading a boarding pass unnecessarily complicated. I wouldn't do that again. Instead I'd book direct with AA.

Flight ok, but me and other two passengers didn’t have connection with the entertainment in our seats. So, no movies, no games, no music… for 9 hours. The crew just told us that there’s nothing they can do but I noticed during the flight that there were empty seats, so they could have offered to us to change seats. Customer service could be better.

Had a nice flight to London on BA will fly with them again in the future

Finnair cancelled my flight 12 hours prior to leaving for Helsinki. They stated there were mechanical problems. I had to scurry around to find a new flight that would meet my needs for arrival in Helsinki. Luckily I was able to find alternate transportation through Lufthansa/United.

The Priority check in in Toronto rivalled the poorest I've experienced. The young woman at the desk (7:30 AM, YYZ) was unfriendly and abrupt, behaving as though we were interrupting her day. Her inch long fingernails said it all....I really don't belong here. Other than that, WestJet personnel provided a good travel experience, especially in flight. I must say that the repeated announcements about the cabin being full and how folks should gate check their bags became tedious. WestJet should just offer free checked luggage and charge for carry on suitcases. It would save a lot of time and the voices of the gate agents.

Wish there was an option to book a fellow traveler who is not necessarily paying on the same booking. Then the airline could consider placing us together. It was a long flight to be separated from travel buddy. The first meal, a luncheon I think was ok with warmish pasta and a tiny salad. The second meal, a midnight snack (hard to say because of the time change) was really awful pizza fold-ups, and no option for folks who cannot eat cheese.

It was a 35 minutes flight. Didn't expect much. You should add a 'not applicable' option to your survey.

The back seats are crowded and at times uncomfortable. I guess that’s part of the price of paying less for a seat.

It was okay overall, but it was a 4 hours flight and the only thing we got was snacks, I really expected breakfast.

My journey from Rome to Seattle contains two parts, first from Rome to YYC then transfer YYC to Seattle. First part from Rome to YYC was wonderful. Fly on times, easy boarding and comfortable seating and good meals. Second from YYC to Seattle is terrible, delayed three times before boarding. No meal, no water, no entertainment. Landed in some corner of airport , walking in bitter cold night and taking the bus. My friend told me that Westjet is the best airline in Canada, I doubt it

Keep better track of bags. Not sure how they got lost. Also not sure why it took two weeks for us to get them back. Had to buy a bunch of necessities because they were packed.

They lost our luggage and didn’t return it until 15 days AFTER we got back.

Our trip was booked to be 2 hours after arriving in Calgary but it was changed until the next morning forcing us to stay overnight in Calgary with no compensation

Adequate though food was not great and no alcohol abailable

My flight was from Charleston, SC to Halifax, NS with one layover and the same on the return. My flight to Halifax was good! The employees at check-in were helpful and friendly. No issues there. My each leg of my flight to Halifax was pleasant. The air crews were excellent, professional and courteous. Arrival in Toronto was uneventful, and the gate agents were friendly and helpful. The same for my flight to Halifax. My return trip was not so pleasant. The flight from Halifax to Toronto was great, with everything I mentioned above: friendly check-in staff and gate agents and quick boarding. It is when I got to Toronto that things went off the rails. In short my flight to Charleston was cancelled about an hour before boarding due to weather in Charleston. I received a text stating I would be rebooked within the 1/2 hour, and I was... on a flight at 6:40 pm the next day, more than 24 hours out! I absolutely could not stay in Toronto that long as I had to be back in Savannah for work. I went to the Air Canada service desk and here is where it really came off the rails for me. Please understand that up to this point every Air Canada employee I had interaction with was wonderful. However my experience with your service desk left much to be desired. As I stood in line with about 30 other people one of the agents announced that for those of us whose flight was cancelled that we had been rebooked, and to please follow her so we could be "escorted out". I turned to someone in line and asked what that meant, "escorted out"? They had no idea. As someone who has limited international travel experience I had no idea what to expect. One of the passengers asked her about accommodations, and was told basically that the cancellation was due to weather and therefore not Air Canada's problem (paraphrasing, but that was the message). She then proceeded to herd a group of passengers to be "escorted out". No other explanation. I waited in line to talk with one of the agents, and happened to get the same agent who had just taken the group out. I told her I could not wait for another flight 24 hours away and asked if they could try and book me on an earlier flight. She handed me a card and said there was nothing they could do and to call the 800 number to try and get another booking. She was extremely short with me and acted as if it was a bother to answer my questions. She said that I needed to be "escorted out". I asked her what does that mean? She explained that the international side of the airport closed at 10:00 pm and that we could not stay in the terminal overnight. I then asked her where I was going to be escorted to, to which she answered "the curb". The curb... outside of the airport? Yes, the curb. That was all she said. I left the desk to call the 800 number to rebook my flight. The gentleman I spoke with on the phone was pleasant and very helpful, and was able to get me a flight out at 7:55 am the next morning with a connection in Chicago. Absolutely wonderful experience there. I then proceeded to walk through the terminal to find my way out so that I could get a hotel for the night (another $225 I was not expecting to spend). I didn't realize that I could not exit the terminal without being "escorted out". I, and several other passengers, found our way at the far end of the terminal which was, apparently, closed to all except domestic Canadian travel. We were not aware of this. We were approached by a young lady with Air Canada and told that we had to turn around and we were not permitted in that section of the airport. She was abrupt and quite rude about it. Not a pleasant person. I made my way back to the service desk so that they could escort me out. About an hour after getting my flight taken care of I received another text that my morning flight had been delayed by 45 minutes. Not a huge deal as I was able to make my connection in Chicago, but it did put me on edge expecting another cancellation. My flight from Toronto to Chicago and then to Charleston was with United Airlines. The flight to Chicago was pleasant. I was fortunate enough to have a seat to myself. The flight from Chicago to Charleston was on a smaller plane, two seats each side, and the individual next to me was not a small individual. I had to press myself against the wall of the plane as I had zero space. Other than that the flight was fine and, again, the crew professional and courteous. I hate to complain because I know that airline employees, both on the ground and in the air, deal with some crazy things and many unpleasant passengers. I get it. I am in hospitality and I absolutely understand, and am appreciative of your associates and the jobs they have. It's not easy and, I imagine, quite stressful at times. Every Air Canada associate I interacted with was wonderful and do your airline credit, aside from those that I just mentioned above. It's not hard to answer a question, even if you're having a hard day. I also understand that things happen that are beyond the control of the airline. Weather, mechanical issues, passengers acting up... I totally understand. When it is all said and done Air Canada got me home safely, for which I am most grateful, and I am grateful for all of your associates who were professional and courteous during my journey.

Very poor. Flight was cancelled last minute to deploy the plane for another route

Unable to initiate refund/reschedule the ticket #worst experience #lost 900$

The flight was actually good the staff was all friendly, but I have to give it a bad rating because my luggage was damaged and I was not able to claim that it was damaged. I only realized it once I got to my hotel and when I tried to contact Air Canada it was almost impossible. The number give to make claims is only for US & Canada yet I was in Seoul, when I tried contacting the number for Seoul I was once again told to call the other number or to return to the airport (which was not possible at the moment). So very disappointed that there was no way to claim my damaged bag and now I have to try to get a new bag while on vacation.

Horrific, we bought our tickets 6 months in advance and paid extra for specific seats close to the front. There was an equipment change to a larger plane ( more seats), identical configuration, you would believe they could honor the seats we purchased. Unfortunately not, and they sent multiple alerts from 11pm to 2am, keeping us up all night. Eventually my husband was moved to the back of the plane with 40 rows, 10seats wide, 🟰 400 people ahead of him to deplane. ( we had a time constraint we had to catch on landing) I don’t mind a middle seat if it is my husband or travel partner, but if I thought there would ever be a chance we would be separated. I would choose an isle. There was no one we could contact as we were at sea, with no cell service. Once docked, We went to the airport an extra hour early, no help at all Air Canada check in counter told us we don’t work for air Canada, call Toronto. Horrible service all around. When you pay for seat selection, don’t count on it with Air Canada. ☹️

Air Canada cancelled our flight from Paris to Montreal with less than 24 hours notice, completely ruining our plans for the last day of our trip. Their associate tried to help by rebooking, but there was only one option available from Paris that was impossible for us to get on. There was no compensation for the disruption, and in fact, we had to pay an additional surcharge after losing money from another flight we had to cancel in order to accommodate the change. Before arriving in Paris, our flights were changed 5 times, but we had more flexibility while still on home soil, so the changes were manageable. Very unpredictable company and poor customer service.

Mess up with not assigning my husband a seat when our two tickets were purchased at the same time. They put us on standby. We were almost bumped off the plane at the gate before departure. Luckily someone volunteered to get a later flight.

Prepaid for my seat selection over a month in advance only to be told when I arrive at the airport that the plane has changed and no pre-selected seats would be honored and refunds would not be issued immediately. Was forced to separate from my traveling companion Air Canada. Unsurprisingly was no assistance in this whatsoever. Plane. We got switched on to also has no entertainment options available

Easy booking process and great follow up notifications. Need to improve boarding process and flight crew should be more personable and friendly with passengers.

The flight itself was ok the staff was great and so was the inflight food. The biggest problem was that my luggage was damaged (the zipper pull from both sides of the zipper where completely ripped out) and I didn’t notice at the airport but at the hotel and when I tried to make a claim it was not possible for me because I have to either call (which is difficult because I’m in another country) I tried to call every nombre given to me but the one that I need I was never able to contact and going back to the airport was not an option. So it’s basically impossible to make a claim if you are abroad. Very disappointed that there are no other ways to claim a damaged bag and now I need to buy a new luggage while on my trip.

Loved the food (vegetarian in our case). Super pleasant. We're in our 60s/70s and not speedy anymore but I never felt rushed. Entertainment choices very current, personalized, and fun. Asked to change seats with a man who had paid for his seats as well but something had occurred in process so he was two rows away from his small daughter. Staff was very efficient at mediating the exchange and gave us a beautiful little travel pack as a gift to agree to it. The seats were comfortable but reclined a bit much for my comfort. I'm glad I'm not claustrophobic as the person in front of me reclined to the max and I felt very enclosed. Very efficient crew simultaneously as super pleasant.

Boarding was a zoo. London ground crew was useless. Poor communication regarding where to line up. We were group 2, and everyone was jammed in together. Ground crew didn’t seem to care.

boarding needs to be streamlined load the back of the plane first

Horrible flight attendant in back of economy that screamed at me, have already reported to United. Horrible food - for Gluten free, why would you assume the person is vegetarian? I was served some kind of horrible curry bean paste and multiple cold rolls and soggy vegetables with no seasoning... um no!

Overall great flight experience- on time, lots of food and movies.

I was at the airport on time , I checked in my luggage . The plane was delayed and the gate was change. The flight board did not give information . I did not get chance to fly. I am going to make a claim for it

We were helped whenever needed and had a pleasant flight.

Air Canada from Edmonton to Toronto was disappointing but Lufthansa from Toronto to Frankfurt was excellent.

Never flown with LH before so all in all wasba good experience. Also good to know that approx 24hrs prior the flight opens up for being able to organise the seating free.

It was a short flight, no real service (which is okay). Very bumpy because of weather.
