Fine, the process or boarding was a bit slow but the flight itself was quick and smooth. Not over booked and pleasant overall

Fine, the process or boarding was a bit slow but the flight itself was quick and smooth. Not over booked and pleasant overall

More check-in counters or faster processing. I arrived early but got to the gate just in time to board the flight, I didn't even have time to use the bathroom. The plane was really dirty, encrusted dirt is everywhere and the plane smelled bad when I entered.

I couldnot board the flight since my previous flight from Lisbon to Madrid arrived too late.

The flight was on the time and everything was very smoothi

Asientos y tener espacio para maleta de mano y no tener que facturar

Pros: "You can always expect reliable and in time service with Avianca."
Cons: "Outdated aircraft, limited space."

Friendly crew who apologised and explained reason for delay. Good on board service. Rather cramped seating. Late departure.

Was not aware that Aer Lingus was like the cut-rate services in the states, with no food or beverage (other then 3.50 Euro coffee) and no screens for entertainment. Was a great flight, but not much in the way of services.

Both flights late. Almost missed connecting flight and flight staff not willing to help expedite us off the plane.

during a very rough flight, I was forced to sit in a last row seat, fell asleep, and was forced to return to my assigned seat after the turbulence. The stewardess then used that seat to sleep.

I didn’t realize Aer Lingus was a “nickel and dime” kind of airline where you had to separately buy all the amenities you wanted. The push to purchase duty-free beauty products was off-putting. And our row had the least amount of leg room I’ve ever dealt with on a flight.

We couldn't talk to aer lingus we had issues with the flight change and aer lingus made us talk to kayak

Very pleasant staff, there was some turbulence but the captain was very apologetic and gave notice where possible.

Flight was great. Had to wait almost 100 minutes for luggage (some problem in the delivery). This may not be an Aer Lingus problem, but an SFO problem.

Loved it! Best airline to fly with. Nice crew, good planes, good food!

Great customer service. Frequent updates from the pilot. Smooth flight. Good entertainment. Meal service.

The flight left Tanger two hours late and I missed my flight to Geneva.

This was such a bad experience. Iberia in Paris Orly refused to issue the boarding pass for my connecting international flight. They were evasive but said it would be dealt with in Madrid. In Madrid there was no help, no transit desk, I almost missed the flight trying to get the boarding pass and only at the gate they told me they had downgraded me. I really felt abused.

The connection required us to travel from terminal A to terminal E with very little time in between flights. While waiting in line, we were called to the service desk to provide our passports. We provided our passports at time of check in, assuming that American Airlines doesn’t communicate well with Iberia, this was a headache.

Almost great...Need more signs around the airport, especially in Italy Marco Polo.

HORRIBLE. 3 hours delayed. Crew did not communicate properly and was rude to passengers enquiring. Delay caused multiple passengers to miss connections.

Boarding was messy, without adequate priority assignments. Information at boarding was poor. One of the agents to whom I asked why group 2 was boarding after groups 3, 4 and 1 (in that order) replied: Orders of the captain. If you want to know the reason, ask him”. That was a ridiculous response.

1. The flight was late and I did jot get the seat I paid for. I paid for extra leg room and a window seat. I got a middle seat without extra leg room. 2. The customer service representative was not helpful. Explanation: many passengers arrived to the service desk in Madrid near baggage claim to rebook our flights. (We all missed our connecting flight due to delays in JFK). Upon arrival, ghere was one service agent and one line-business. After about 25-30 minutes the agent left and we could see her making a phone call. After about 5 more minutes, 2 other agents arrived. During our wait, another line formed for main cabin customers. We were told to go to the other line, even after waiting around 30-40 minutes. This would have been disastrous for ghose of us who had been waiting for so long. The agents need more training.

One of our bags did not make the connecting flight in Madrid. We have not received any word today on its location. Seats were so narrow and uncomfortable!

I am very happy always when I fly with Iberia.

A bit noisy. The seat was suboptimal and there was too much noise in the service area. Some if the crew members were less than nice; others were great.

I liked nothing. An extremely uncomfortable flight, staff were rude, no ice for my drink. 4 hours of misery

the boarding took a really lo g time, we were standing on stairs waiting to walk out to the plane. Seats are uncomfortable but it’s ok for a short trip. There is no entertainment. Follow the rules and will not have any problems or extra charges

The check-in process is very confusing. The company charges for everything, but tickets are low priced. I probably wouldn't take the airline for a flight over 3 hours. The seats are uncomfortable. There's no net on the seats to hold things like headphones, a folder or anything.

You have improved through the many years I have flown with you. But you still nickle and dime your customers. I paid extra for carry on and priority boarding.

Lord knows why they had us start boarding when the plane wasn't even there, staff weren't welcoming and the couple next to me travelling with a young child had a nightmare with the baby changing facilities.

It was raining and we got all soaked because the staircases didn’t had a roof

Good service for a budget trip. No problems at all

Would be better if there is phone charging ports available

We arrived at the airport by taxi so as to be there two hours ahead of take-off. On arrival I received a message stating that the flight would be 85 minutes later than planned. An hour later another message stated that it would be a further 20 minutes late. There was no mention of the almost 2 hour delay once we boarded. Needless to say, they didn’t trumpet their “arrive-on-time” signal. At least we got there eventually.

I haven't had a ok flight with Ryanair in so long!
