Airline reviews

Seats were alarming close to the row in front of you. I didn’t do the measurements online, which I’m sure they’re available, but it seemed much tighter than other planes, but the airplane itself was well maintained and looked fairly new. My only complaint on the staff was that we’re on an international flight. Normally they give you wine with dinner and the flight attendant decided to pull some strict restrictions and wouldn’t give more than one glass of wine per person, and you could not share with your spouse, which seemed ridiculous when we have four people on the plane with us and only one person ordered wine asked for a second one and she said oh absolutely not. It’s only one per person Which on a transcontinental usually is not the case. They’re very attentive on making sure everyone is as comfortable as possible.

Boarding seemed a bit chaotic and we had to walk outside across the tarmac. Passengers of all ages had to drag carry on luggage up the outside stairway into the aircraft. There was no WiFi. Very uncomfortable crammed seats. Glad in-air time was only an hour!

There was no flight. I booked a flight from Toronto to Bordeaux with a stopover in Dublin. I arrived in Dublin and the flight number I had didn't exist and the flight going to Bordeaux I wasn't on. I had to book a new flight with a different airline for later in the day and pay out of pocket.

Very polite and helpful staff. Jet blue…ok, but not as helpful!..

Seat was very uncomfortable. The worst in all of my travels. It sagged in the middle, worse than anything any airline can offer. Not flying aer lingus again.

My Aer Lingus flight (booking ref # 2SU4LF) was the worst travel experience I have ever dealt with. My flight from Paris to Dublin was delayed by over 2 hours which caused me to miss my connecting flight back to the US. I was not able to be rebooked on a new flight for another 3 days. When I finally made it on my rescheduled flight, it was delayed AGAIN, causing me to miss my connecting flight from New York to Boston. At this point I decided to just rent a car since the next flight I would have been able to get in wasn’t for another 5 hours. It was a complete nightmare experience and I will never fly Aer Lingus again. I have requested a refund from the booking company I placed my order with.

Flight was cancelled. There were no Aer Lingus reps to help. I had to rebook my flight and find a hotel. Still had nothing from the airline.

They couldn't do through check-in for us. They took 2 hours to issue just one leg of the boarding pass. They had no idea to handle the case of passengers who travels to USA via Dublin airport. we had tough time time Dublin airport as boarding pass for the US flight was not pre-issued. Hope Aer Lingus will learn to handle such cases which they couldn't learn in in the past 50 years of the service.

There was a very drunk and disruptive passenger who was on the plane, right behind me. He was already drunk before boarding but was still let on the plane. He kept kicking and hitting the back of my chair the entire flight. It was an early morning flight and had zero rest on that leg

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

ontime and super quick boarding and disembarking. I made it in 6 min from airplane through passport control to the train platformin Cologne. Amazingly quick airport.

Their customer service needs an overhaul. I wish we could access them and the could be more helpful. Also, the website has been crashing and I had numerous technical errors. My flight was cancelled and we spent so much time trying to get help because the tech was failing.

There plane had a technical pricken so we had to disembark, but the replacement aircraft was provided within one hour so there was not much delay.

Miserable staff did not want to be there. Very poor atmosphere boarding. Then just basic flight.

We had a delay. That made me feel anxious because I arrived out of time

We were diverted to warsaw and there was zero information. We were just forced to disembark and off we go good luck the reat of the way. We all had to go our ways to find a way home!!!! Horrible horrible and it cost us alot of money to get a hotel and trains 4:30 pm next day.

all fine - did not have food - there was no entertainment

Long delay was made worse by lack of information and long time in queue waiting for the plane to arrive

Delayed delayed delayed and then cancelled very late not allowing for too much time to find a room for the night

Blood contaminated tissue was stuffed to the back of the seat in front of us.

LCY airport is an amazing airport and I love the flight from LCY to FRA with BA. Efficient, easy, comfortable and great luggage allownace with BA. I iused to fly predominantley LH, but the service and price - benefit ratio of Lufthansa has deteriorated a lot over the last 5 years. Whereas BA keeps an excellent service level with friendly staff.

Flight Attendant Karen Lynn was an absolute delight. She assisted in every portion of the services provided throughout the flight, aided with any and all concerns expressed by passengers, and even helped comfort an upset child who was one of five of a traveling family. This quality of service is what keeps me coming back to American. Thank you!

The airplane was old. Some things didn’t work out of middle seat was broken. The rest was OK.

The worst, flight cancelled because the aircraft was not full. Heathrow ground crew totally not helpful and arrogant. Lady proposed us flight with 40min layover instead of direct and said it is our problem of course she was unable to do anything as everything was beyond her control she claimed. after calling on hotline another flight was booked. Flight was cancelled last second so we could not take direct from Zurich but we had to stay overnight in London.

Very quick boarding. I was surprised we only got a small water and small thing of cookies, everything else was for purchase. No entertainment. Crew was excellent though.

Flight delayed in terms of boarding and Kayak was great in updating but the team on the groping at British Airways were really poor

A basic tea/ coffee and a snack could be provided especially for long distance flyers.

The information in the airport, and the app was different. Be aware. Different terminals in Stuttgart, so we had to walk a lot. It's a small airport so it wasn't a big deal, but it was ludicrous to see the error in the app.

Flight was delayed and there was boarding pass and flight information errors resulting in confusion and stress

Food was terrible , crew were excellent , IFE was dire . Overall comfortable seat and cabin. Nothing special .
