The flight was almost full, and the airline was not able to seat the family together, even though we tried to check in online 24 hours before the flight. The food was much better than what is usually served on airlines, and the choice of entertainment was quite extensive.
The flight attendants were warm and had a great attitude. They were helpful and attentive.
Only had fish option for food. I am allergic to fish and there was no veg option
Qatar airlines denied issue of any Boarding Pass to me at the Airport Check in counter, siting the reason that pre-booking of Covid Test appointment 'on arrival' at Kolkata Airport (CCU) was a mandatory requirement, even if I was not traveling from (or through) any of the 19 (nineteen) 'AT-RISK' countries notified by Govt.of India for the purpose of International Arrival. Moreover, Air-suvidha form of Govt of India which I had pre-filled with required documents, never asked me or redirected me to any Covid test pre-appointment site 'on arrival' by the international passenger. The QA executive at the Houston (Texas, USA) air-port check in counter informed me about this about this and said it has come from their internal memo. They even denied issuing me a copy or to take any photo of the same internal note. Though as per our understanding the same is not required as per Govt of India's latest guidelines in related to international passengers arriving in any of the Indian airports (including Kolkata). My subsequent telephonic call to Qatar Airways Customer Care centre also did not help. They only could inform me to send a mail using 'feedback' link in the Qatarairways official site and ensured that it would be replied within 12 hours. Even after making a complaint (through Feedback link in QA official website), I have not yet received any reply from them even after 4 days (besides an automated acknowldgement) of my complaint. In none of their earlier communication to me, neither Qatarairways nor by 'Kayak' / Indian Eagle, this requirement (even if it was mandatory) was ever been ever communicated to me. Suffered a huge loss due to this. Very much disappointed with the Qatar airways.
Wasnt full so that’s a plus. Staff were outstanding. Patient, curteous, responsive. Masks were enfoced which is great. I’ve travelled with young kids of my own and have had some rough experiences with them but there is ALWAYS some way to pasify a screeming child. Many parents on this flight didnt care at all. I was awoken by a toddler running past me, bumping into my elbow, screaming “tee non, tee non, tee non”. On these transcontinental flights, parents with little children should be given a special section, and parents need to be more reponsive to the issues causing their little ones to scream and cry nonstop for 16.5 hrs. Its not the kids’ fault. Also, why cant airlines get rid of static charged fleece throws? All that said, Qatar remains one of the better international carriers out there.
courteous flight attendants, great food, diligent attention to requests, clean, love entertainment options and the consistent notice of the planes advancement of flight(status of flight progress)
The boarding procedure was ABYSMAL. It is infuriating to be asked to "social distance" and wear masks when the airline is unable to conduct boarding in an organized and efficient way. The crew was totally incompetent in informing waiting passengers. No microphones. No digital display of boarding order. No staff assistance. Waiting for WAY too long with no explanation. It was perfectly awful. Food was eatable but completely tasteless. Not nearly enough liquid distribution.
Plussat: "Great Crew.. clean, new flight. Everything works."
Plussat: "The crew is very friendly and helpfu; the space between seats is noticeably larger than usual"
Plussat: "Crew did a great job keeping the long 11hour flight manageable!"
Plussat: "No comments."
Miinukset: "No comments."
Plussat: "Crew was good"
Miinukset: "Tvs don’t work. Uncomfortable seats"
Plussat: "Crew very hospitable and friendly."
Miinukset: "Food was mediocre quality."
Plussat: "Crew is good. Flight got delayed"
Miinukset: "Food is good."
Plussat: "I was at airport 1 hour before the flight time But they already closed the gate, and I missed the flight, and my return flight is gone too Omg to much for me"
Miinukset: "I wish you can do something for me Because the tickets is really expensive"
Miinukset: "More refreshments"
Plussat: "The crew was amazing and delightful."
Miinukset: "The crew was amazing and delightful but should provide food to kids first before even those special diet or vegetarians."
Plussat: "Staff was nice and polite and helpful to me. The plane is pretty much on time or little delay. The boarding is early but I guess it helps with getting everyone on board and be on time."
Miinukset: "There are 2-3 choices per meal for us to choose on the menu but some of the choice already gone by the time they serve us. I feel like menu is useless if we were forced to eat what have left."
Plussat: "The customer service and food were excellent."
Miinukset: "Next time I will fly business class for more space and comfort."
Plussat: "Crew etc excellent"
Miinukset: "In flight WiFi expensive and not reliable"
Plussat: "Liked the smoothness on boarding and the organization. Keep it up!"
Miinukset: "Attitude of some of the flight attendants and more entertainment."
Miinukset: "At Mumbai airport, during check-in I was told that my carry on bag plus personal item together should weigh not more than 7kgs!! I have never had any airline actually weigh my personal item (laptop backpack) before this journey. Eventually I ended up stuffing my check-in bags with everything I was carrying in my carry on bag before I was allowed to check in. The weird thing is, I was never told about this rule on my journey from the US to India."
Miinukset: "Took long time to provide food & water."
Plussat: "Confort"
Miinukset: "Same as above."
Plussat: "Overall the flight went well. Flight attendants were attentive and boarding went fairly quickly and flight was smooth."
Miinukset: "The bathrooms ran out of water. Not a great movie selection and almost didn't have any choice for lunch."
Plussat: "another whole row to myself which meant i slept for most of the flight. food was ok, not as good as on the first flight."
Miinukset: "headrest is no rest at all, very uncomfortable as it does not adjust other then up or down."
Plussat: "The plane had everything I could want."
Miinukset: "Unfortunately, the plane was late, prompting me to miss my connecting flight. These things happen, I understand, but most upsetting was the fact that Qatar Airways provided very little information to those of us missing our flights. While on the plane, when those of us with short layovers mentioned that we may be late, we were told "you'll be fine - they hold the planes for a bit." When we deboarded the plane from New York, we ere wrangled into groups depending on our destinations. Many of us assumed that we were going to be taken to our next flights as we had been told they would be waiting for us. The airline rep in charge of my group refused to tell us any information, however, only admitting after we got confrontational with her that we had missed our flights. She then offered no information about what would happen to us, telling us we'd find out when we got to the rebooking counter. Very unprofessional. I was told that I would have to wait for another 24 hours for the next flight, necessitating that I would spend the night in Qatar. I was put up in a hotel that was decent, but again that offered very little in terms of customer service. We were given an $80 meal allowance, but despite me not using it, I was nickeled and dimed in other aspects to where I ended up paying $20 to help reschedule a flight that I had missed in my destination country. The whole ordeal was a nightmare and mostly due to poor communication and very cold, almost robotic interactions with the QA staff on the ground in Doha."
Plussat: "Flight service"
Miinukset: "Comfort"
Plussat: "Great services"
Miinukset: "Boarding slow"
Plussat: "Nothing was wow! Liked politeness of one of the airhost. She was good with good english"
Miinukset: "Plane wasnt clean enough specially toilet."
Miinukset: "I’m a 6’3” in shape man. I selected the bulkhead seats for extra leg room. Great crew, but my shoulders stuck past the seat edge 3” on both sides."
Plussat: "The entertainment was good without any hiccups"
Miinukset: "The crew was in a hurry burry which didn’t give a very good experience. I would suggest the crew to be little more tolerant and make their customers feel good.foo"
Plussat: "Movies collections, friendly staffs"
Plussat: "Nothing"
Miinukset: "Crew is meek and doesn’t smile or try very hard. Flight was FULL of nasty Russian tourists. Miserable experience"
Plussat: "The flight attendants are always friendly and helpful"
Miinukset: "Flight was delayed for 4 hrs"
Plussat: "Very professional ground staff and cabin crew; very genuine and trained well. However, the first class food is absolutely subpar. Entertainment choices were great though & the lie flat seats are fab!"
Miinukset: "The food"
Miinukset: "Menevintä ruokavaihtoehtoa (kana) ei ollut tarpeeksi, taaskaan."
Plussat: "Let's just say there was nothing I didn't like"
Miinukset: "I have no comment"
Miinukset: "The customer service is terrible. They refused to accommodate me for a 19 hour layover with a complimentary airport hotel stay, claiming there was an earlier flight--that was still 12 hours away, that I would have to pay to book anyway. Pure scam to get you to pay to upgrade your flight, pay for hotel or be condemned to stay in there airport for a whole day. Never ever again! Don't fly them!"
Plussat: "Excellent service. Good seats. I like the 3x3x3 configuration which make the middle seat bearable."
Plussat: "Comfortable seat and good service"
Miinukset: "None"
Plussat: "Quick boarding/ friendly ground staff as well as the cabin crew! Food was great(even though I don't normally eat plane food) but I enjoyed their meals! Plenty of leg room with the seat compared to other airlines I have flown with! Free wifi on certain planes(even though for 15 mins, better than nothing!)"
Miinukset: "Could have a bit more choice of movies but wasn't bad"
Plussat: "Among airlines, theirs is one of the best. The have good leg room in economy, good food, good entertainment, and an excellent cabin staff."
Plussat: "On time, clean and joyful"
Miinukset: "N/A"
Almost the only airline that offers free coffee and bread even in short 1 hour flights
A heads up on filling in an e-ticket prior to flight departure would have been helpful.
Kiire oli nousuun mut kerettiin ksikki hyvin
Plussat: "Salimos a tiempo . El business es muy confortable"
Miinukset: "La comida horrible . No se limpian los baños"
Miinukset: "Klm is the best, even on a 40min they served small breakfast."
Plussat: "Decent price for economy comfort seat, 4A."
Miinukset: "The flight was delayed about 80 minutes and they did not informed until when I got to the Airport. I could have stayed more at home instead of the terminal. They have also changed the boarding gate.."
Miinukset: "Boarding was crazy. Could not everyone in the gate area."
Plussat: "Slow service."
Miinukset: "Better communication!"
Miinukset: "Staff rude and short"
Plussat: "the drinks"
Miinukset: "seat reservation. having to pay for luggage...."
Plussat: "Service is awesome. Food is great."
Miinukset: "People with short connection are affected by the 15 to 25 minutes delay."
Miinukset: "There was no wifi on flight"
Plussat: "Amazing services .. on time just exactly .. I feel really happy onboard KLM ❤️"
Miinukset: "We had 4 hour delay causing a stop over at 3am. So yeah"
Plussat: "Crew was great and professional."
Miinukset: "Entertainment controls were outdated and confusing to operate. There were no charging ports."
Plussat: "Comfortable seat, friendly crew. Crew were conscious of recycling which I like a lot as there is so much waste on flight. Anything we can do to reduce waste is very welcome."
Miinukset: "Food wasn't very appetizing, pasta didn't have much flavor and I don't eat red meat so the other choice wasn't an option for me."
Plussat: "The earphones for out two seats only worked intermittently, but the Purser, Lee-Ann handled it professionally and pleasantly. That was the only disappointment in an otherwise pleasant flight"
Miinukset: "The earphones could have worked!"
Miinukset: "I called for a crew member 5 times and waited 25 minutes for anyone to help me with just some water. I had to get up and go to the very back of the plane to ask for some water. The plane was hot and no air to be found. This was all after we had to get back off the plane before takeoff. It was terrib"
Plussat: "On time and friendly crew"
Miinukset: "Boarding needs improvement"
Plussat: "Once aboard the plane, all went well and I experienced excellent service from the cabin attendants."
Miinukset: "The flight was delayed (again!) for some 40 minutes and I was worried that I would miss my connection flight in Atlanata. Fortunately the pilot made up for the delay (probably costing the airline thousands in fuel). It seems these days that every KLM flight I take is delayed. This stretch goes back to 2015! Yet KLM prides itself as being punctual. Not the KLM that I have been flying!"
Miinukset: "Flight canceled, poor communication from the airline to the passengers. Møre than 5 hrs delay"
Plussat: "Flight crew very nice"
Miinukset: "Paid $70 for seat with more leg room and was the exit role to main entrance. No overhead space for carry on: broken food tray holder. People stepping on my feet. And gather in your space waiting for bathrooms. Window seat had no room for feet because of closed door"
Miinukset: "Very slow service at checkin, was not even available when I arrived at the airport"
Plussat: "Snooth and efficiënt with a KLM service"
Miinukset: "No entertainment"
Plussat: "Easy flight; loved the crew and their friendly customer service. Great food, kept everyone hydrated and fed."
Miinukset: "The movie options, as well as music and TV options were limited. There were no electrical outlets."
Plussat: "Seats were comfortable and there was enough room for hand baggage. I slept during the flight so do not have opinion on entertainment."
Miinukset: "Not able to charge my digital devices. When serving beverages and food, the same flight attendant missed me a few times. That was annoying but other attendants were very nice."
Plussat: "Easy to board and easy flight."
Plussat: "She was cheerful and genuine. I have dietary restrictions but was unable to preorder a meal. She went out of her way to find an available meal for me. I also saw her bring other passengers extra snacks and drinks."
Miinukset: "Cramped seating."
Plussat: "Fast boarding"
Miinukset: "The entertainment system wasn’t working for the whole 10 hour flight."
Plussat: "Flight was delayed for 15 min resulting in passengers rushing to make their connecting flights.but staff kept passengers informed."
Miinukset: "Flight departing late."
Plussat: "Good Experience"
Miinukset: "Nothing much"
Plussat: "Crew good flight was fine apart from delay due to fog in Amsterdam but kept informed"
Miinukset: "Flight was delayed due to weather in Amsterdam area"
Plussat: "Flight was delayed for three hours and was a very stressful flight"
Miinukset: "Flight was not on time and got to destination very very late pier management of aircrafts"
Plussat: "From pre-boarding, to boarding, to the food, and the attentiveness, everything was top notch! The cleanliness of the plane was only topped by the friendliness of the crew."
Miinukset: "The flight was marked at almost 11hrs but ended up being only 9...not a negative other than it meant not spending as much time on board!"
Plussat: "Flight crew was pleasant and attentive. Seats were comfortable for economy as well. We were allowed to check in extra baggage for free at check in which really helped since we would be catching a connecting flight in Amsterdam"
Plussat: "Jet airways flight till mumbai"
Miinukset: "Poor legspace in Klm flight till Amsterdam"
Miinukset: "Terrible service in flight and customer service wise .. app functionality was below"
Plussat: "Crew service"
Miinukset: "Flight delayed."
Plussat: "Price"
Miinukset: "Klm flight has very congested seating Getting information about eticket was pain"
Plussat: "Loads of leg room"
Miinukset: "Loved everything"
Plussat: "Wide selection of entertainment, food was good."
Miinukset: "Boarding unorganized, but that may have been more of a passenger issue then KLM"
Plussat: "Short layover connecting from US flight and luggage transferred ok to destination. Food option not great but at least they didn't charge for it unlike some other airlines. No entertainment but to be expected on such a short flight."
Plussat: "Boarding was very efficient."
Miinukset: "Limited movie selection. Crew seemed stressed. Gave me wrong meal and then swaped for the right one. I asked for Diet Coke and was given white wine. Food quality was not good."
Plussat: "KLM fed a sandwich even though the flight was only 2 hours. The crew was pleasant. Getting through the Amsterdam airport to catch a connecting flight with only an hour to do so was no big deal. Airport staff was pleasant and helpful."
Plussat: "Very good flight, excellent service and good food."
Plussat: "The crew was very pleasant and professional. toilets were very clean adequate overhead space"
Miinukset: "Very uncomfortable seats in Economy Comfort. Legroom and recline were OK but the seats were extremely narrow. No evening meal and breakfast was minimal"
I upgraded to business class and service was excellent. Only negative thing was poor selection of entertainment.
Everything was seamless getting through the airports. One of my flights was delayed and they reassured us our connecting flights would wait and they did! Service and food were excellent. The only thing lacking was movie choices, fewer good options than other airlines.
This is NOT a review for SAS or Kayak. It's a review for their booking service Chat Deal. I booked a flight via Kayak thru Chat Deal on SAS. Chat Deal incorrectly put my business name on the ticket, picking it up from the credit card, instead of my name which I had properly filled out on their form and proofed it carefully at checkout. That took an act of God to correct. Then, unfortunately, I failed my Covid test and couldn't board the flight to Sweden from Maimi. SAS stated I had to go thru the booking service for credit. Chat Deal was horrible to deal with and offered no help. They said my only option was to re-book. The problem with that is my trip was for a business meeting. I have no reason to fly to Sweden again as this was a one-time thing. Chat Deal had no interest in trying to resolve my issue. They say phone calls are monitored for quality purposes? Then listen to my recorded calls and judge for yourself if you want to use them. I like Kayak as a search engine, but they should remove Chat Deal from their roster of booking providers. I suspect SAS is a fine airline, but they should remove Chat Deal as well. I should have read their reviews before booking through them. The writing was on the wall. My bad.
i had such fond memories of SAS from the golden days of travel before 911 & Covid - it appears what ever all airlines can do to bleed you dry for what use to be free is ridiculous There were no beverages offered on the return flight from HAM/CPH/SFO and the food was beyond disgusting
Plussat: "Kummatkin lennot olivat ajallaan ja kaikki onnistui sujuvasti ja nopeasti. Ekalla lennolla ( HEL - > ARN ) henkilökunta oli huippu!!"
Plussat: "The flight attendants were very patient and attentive, the vegetarian meal was probably the best I’ve ever had on a flight. The plane was a little older so there was a (relatively) comfortable amount of seat room."
Miinukset: "Some entertainment option would be nice, but it was a European flight under 3 hours, so not much was expected."
Miinukset: "Don't remember this flight"
Miinukset: "I intensely disliked the 3 hour delay in Copenhagen!!! And that SAS offered the passengers in transit a meal voucher of only 50 danish Kronas, which was just enough to buy a tall Starbucks coffee drink but not enough to eat anything at the airport!"
Miinukset: "Late departure. No roof during queuing for loading and rain..."
Miinukset: "Forferdelig innsjekking, lang kø, kun en person som skulle håndtere alle. Bag drop aksepterte kun en innsjekket bagasje for 2 personer selv om vi skulle kunne sjekke inn 2 hver."
Plussat: "No problems. I was satisfied"
Plussat: "Flight was on time. Bathrooms were clean."
Miinukset: "Dinner and breakfast were terrible, especially for a long transatlantic flight. Attendants were curt. Movie selection was subpar compared to other airlines on similar flights I’ve taken."
Plussat: "Everything was bearly acceptable"
Miinukset: "I asked the stewardess if she could fill my water bottle and was actually told that only one glass of water per person was allowed! Next time I would try Norwegian Air, which is known as a budget airline."
Miinukset: "There was no food or entertainment offered."
Plussat: "We mentioned it was our anniversary and thought about moving up to SAS Plus, but the cost was not an option to us. She moved us up before we got on the plane! Extremely nice!!"
Miinukset: "No food or even water"
Plussat: "Leg room, bottle of water waiting at seat, as well as pillow and blanket. Large number of entertainment choices."
Miinukset: "Only one free drink per meal, otherwise only tea or coffee."
Miinukset: "Rerouted without consultaton - added an extra leg to my trip including a necessary mad dash to catch the make-up flight."
Miinukset: "It was exceptionally on time. Very informative captain without being chatty. Crew was efficient but not very friendly. Food was tasty and sufficient."
Plussat: "Free coffee in the plane"
Plussat: "Smooth flight, boarding was seamless."
Miinukset: "Expensive rates on luggage"
Plussat: "The plane from SFO to Coppenhaggen was modern and clean. The flight crew was friendly and efficient. I would fly with them again."
Miinukset: "The seat was not well padded for the bottom.@9 m"
Plussat: "Only that it was the shorter part of the trip."
Miinukset: "Seat was tight and did not recline at all. Back was killing me. Flight attendants came across as rude the way they spoke to the people. No entertainment at all. Not even water was offered."
Miinukset: "No food, no entertainment"
Plussat: "This wasn't a very long flight and I didn't eat or drink anything so there isn't really that much to say. But I can say that nothing was a problem at all"
Miinukset: "There were no problems"
Plussat: "Punctual and very cordial staff."
Plussat: "I have no complaints. Will recommend SAS to all my friend. Thank you."
Miinukset: "I do not like the way they conduct their business from the office never returning phone calls as we are trying to get our questions answered. Would also be nice if the airline would use JFK instead of Liberty in Newark. Thank you."
Miinukset: "This flight never happened"
Miinukset: "We couldn't check in online because we had an infant in arms. So we tried to check in there. There were 3 different terrible queues. One to use the machines, one to check bags and another for special situations. We tried the machines, didn't work. A rep told us to go to the special situations line. There was a rep there that was trying to prevent people to getting into the line because it was sooo long (1+ hr). So we tied the machines again. Didn't work. So we convinced the guy to let us in the special line. It was nuts. We waited as our flight got closer and closer. Right when it looked like we might make the flight, one of the TWO reps left. When we finally made it, they said we wouldn't make the flight. We rebooked and had to pay extra. WORST travel experience ever."
Miinukset: "When I checked in I was told I had no bag allowance and had to pay 70 euro to check my bag. I feel like this was very sketchy on kyaak's part since it must have been on the fine print. I will be more cautious next time. Sas was otherwise fine."
Plussat: "The movie selection"
Miinukset: "To be boarded and wait for more than 45 minutes inside the plane for a second pilot."
Plussat: "Friendly staff. Good food. Movie/tv options were excellent."
Miinukset: "Didn't like that I had to order vegetarian food option in advance. I would forget to do so before the flight. Despite that, I was still able to eat most of the meal since there was salad, bread and dessert which was filling enough."
Plussat: "Crew and plane good. Friendly and English was excellent."
Miinukset: "There was a delay because of a software issue. They had to shift people around manually because of it. Baggage Fee was extremely high (> $50)"
Plussat: "Service, etc."
Miinukset: "Boarding... the first 20 or so rows were called then "All remaining passengers..." causing considerable pushing, etc. MUST board by sections, etc..."
Miinukset: "When purchasing the ticket there was no mentione that bagage was NOT included something which I assume when flying with an All Star airline. Ended up paying an extra 70 € for my luggage - not happy."
Miinukset: "Had to pay 70 euro to check 1 bag at the airport!"
Plussat: "The food was not too bad and the menu options were alright. I love using the complimentary ear buds."
Miinukset: "Could use some improvements on comfort and efficiency"
Plussat: "Was able to selct my seat"
Miinukset: "Had to pay €70 to check in luggage - most expensive ive ever seen! No beverages other than coffee and tea abailable, water could be appreciated"
Plussat: "Quick Flight"
Miinukset: "Just a long layover, but what are you going to do"
Plussat: "The flight was good : excellent pilot and crew. Good takeoff and landing. Short but sweet flight."
Miinukset: "Leg room is a nit short for tall people. Everything else was great."
Plussat: "Introduce meals even to economy class"
Plussat: "Easy boarding, food equate for economy, entertainment fine. No wine or beer inc,used in economy but not a big deal. Excellent seating if you know what to chose."
Plussat: "connection was easy and quick"
Plussat: "Passengers nice"
Miinukset: "Food options not everyone eats chicken"
Plussat: "Passenger"
Miinukset: "Not much talk from captain about local weather and time."
Plussat: "It was quick. Can't rate food or entertainment as I didn't use"
Miinukset: "Seats v cramped and even w a window seat I was squashed by big man next to me. Lucky it was a short flight"
Koneen tarjoilun hinnat olivat kalliita
Matkustamohenkilökunnan toiminta ja käytös ala-arvoista
Oli kylmä. Aika moni aivasteli tai niiskutti 12 tunnin lennon päättyessä.
Ihan hyvin toimi kaikki, paitsi jalkatilaa oli melko vähän pitkälle pohjoismaalaiselle.
Tuntui kuin lentokenttävirkailijat olisi olleet TET-harjoittelussa. Ongelma ei tietty ole Finnairin henkilökunnassa vaan Münchenin kentän virkailijoissa. Oli kuin kaikki olisivat ensimmäistä päivää töissä. Todella heikkoa toimintaa.
Henkilökunta oli ihan ystävällistä. Koneeseennousu oli hidas. Tarjottavat ovat nolla-arvoisia, vain lasi vettä ilmaiseksi, ei ole toimiva konsepti ollenkaan.
Kone lähti myöhässä ja henkilökunnalla turha puheripuli kovaäänisiin
Hyvä, nopea lento, Hki lentoasemalla hyvä palvelu
Finnairilla hyvä henkilökunta, kaikki sujui tosi hienosti lennolla.
lentoemännät hoiti tehtävänsä hyvin. Koneen ilmastoinnissa oli vikaa, tuli vilu.
Lento aivan täynnä ja bourdauksessa ei mitään järjestystä. Tuntuu siltä, että Finnair sijoittaa pariskunnat erilleen ilman erillistä maksettua paikkavalintaa.
Premiere economy -luokkaan voisi kuulua ruoka
Tehokasta, mukavaa, uutta ja miellyttävää. Homma toimi. Hyvät unet!
Lento 3h myöhässä. Informaation kulku hidasta ja sekavaa.
Lähtöselvityksessä oli vain yksi henkilö, mikä ei vastannut lainkaan tarvetta, koska hän oli ERITTÄIN HIDAS - ja hieman tyly (?). Passeja hän pyöritteli todella kauan ja tavasi hitaasti kirjain kirjaimelta nimemme niistä ja vertaili kuvia meihin. Tuntui todella oudolta. Lisäksi tarranauhat taisivat loppua kesken ja hän joutui hakemaan niitä muualta. Meillä (kolmen hlön perhe) oli ainoastaan yksi laukku menossa ruumaan, mutta virkailija yllätti meidät vaatimalla myös käsimatkatavaramme ruumaan, koska tilaa olisi kuulemma liian vähän. Luonnollisesti olimme pakanneet kaiken säännösten mukaan ja tässä hässäkässä ruumaan joutui myös elektroniikka, jotka olimme jättäneet käsimatkatavaroihin. Virkailija ei huomannut kysyä asiasta, emmekä me kiireessä muistaneet sitä. Lisäksi jouduin todella vaatimalla vaatimaan, että sain yhden laukun käsimatkatavaroihin, koska sairastan diabetesta ja astmaa ja olin pakannut matkalla mahdollisesti tarvitsemani lääkkeet ko. laukkuun. Ehdin jo hieman hätääntyä asiasta, kunnes virkailija "armollisesti" tuli sen verran vastaan, että antoi minun valita yhden kolmesta laukustamme matkustamoon. Ymmärrän tilantarpeen, mutta olisi ollut todella järkevää kertoa jonossa odottaville etukäteen, että tällaista vaaditaan, jotta muutenkin todella tiukalla ollut ollut aika ei olisi kulunut turhaan säätämiseen turhautuneitten jonottajien odottaessa selän takana. Asian olisi mielestäni voinut myös hoitaa hieman kohteliaammin. Lisäksi huomasin koneessa, että hyvin harvan kohdalla oli vaadittu jättämään matkustamoon tarkoitettuja laukkuja ruumaan - ainakin lähes kaikilla oli yksi laukku/hlö mukana. Hämmentävää. Yllättävää kyllä kone pääsi kuitenkin lähtemään matkustajien puolesta ajallaan, vaikka jonottavat pitivät sitä mahdottomana. Lento sujui muuten hyvin, paitsi jalkatilat olivat todella surkeat verrattuna menomatkamme koneeseen.
Not so good: I pre-ordered an Asian veg meal and was given a vegan meal. I wasn't given any headphones and since everyone around me was using their own, I assumed it was no longer a freebie. Later found out other passengers had been given them. No online check-in available as code-share flight. Good: AA agent at Heathrow airport was incredibly helpful and even checked in my hand luggage for free (I was travelling with hand luggage only). Arrivals process at Phoenix was efficient and fast.
The flight was very comfortable but we ended up paying an extra $300 more for each ticket for seats and baggage. We should have been told in big bold letters that there would be extra charges for everything else.
Vähän myöhässä muuten kaikki sujui loistavasti
Kone oli kolme tuntia myöhässä.... Meitä pompoteltiin portilta toiselle. Ilmastointi oli olematon.
Finnair on lentoyhtiönä nykyään aivan perseestä! Siirtävät esim lentoja 2 päivällä eteenpäin eivätkä kerro matkustajille edes syytä! Laitoin kyselyä asiakaspalveluun jo maaliskuussa 2022 ja lentomme oli 27.5 ja en ole vieläkään saanut vastausta miksi lentoa siirrettiin.
Asiakkaita suositellaan menemään kentälle hyvissä,ajoin, mutta finskin lähtöselvitys ja bag drop portit avautuvat, aina, liian myöhään. (munchen)
Edelleen toivoisin edes kahvia maksutta, Air France osaltaan tarjoaa jopa pientä syötävää ja muuta juotavaa.
Lento oli lähes 3 tuntia myöhässä emmekä saaneet mitään tietoa mistään. Emme saaneet myöskään vouchereita.
Seat allocation or lack of availability is a mystery. My wife and I had to sit apart from each other, and teenage children elsewhere but I checked in at the first possible opportunity (24 hours to flight) and at this stage 95% of all seats were gone. How is this possible? What can I do differently next to to be able to sit together with my ffamily on a long haul night flight?
Kaikki toimii suunnitellusti, ruokaa tai viihettä en käyttänyt.
Järjestelyt toimi oikein hyvin matkakumppanin boarding pass dokumentti katosi turvatarkastuksen jälkeen puhelimesta jokin spammi yritti latautua , mutta passilla koneeseen 😊 Kone ilmeisesti hiukan kovassa käytössä, istuin muhkurainen. Henkilökunta oikein palvelualtista ja ammattitaitoista ☺
Hieman enemmän jalkatilaa
Lähtöselvitys hidas vimeisimmillä tuli kiire lähtöportille
Ystävällinen henkilökunta. Kaikki ok.
Check-in jonoa oli aamulennolla, mikä on pienellä lennolla ymmärrettävää. Kaikki muu toimi mainiosti.
Henkilökunnan ystävällisyys oli hyvää, mutta pienille reittilennoille Suomen sisällä olisi mukavaa saada pikku suolaista.
Kun Finnair ei tarjoa muuta kuin mehua ja vettä niin olisi mukavaa että edes voisi ostaa jotain vähän laadukkaampaa syötävää kuin nuudeleita!
Ilmainen kahvi olihan kiva. Lento myöhässä yli 2 h Hesan päässä odotettiin rappusia. Huh huh. On se vaikeeta!
Lähtö myöhästyi 55min. Oli lähellä että olisimme odottaneet 1,5h koneessa, mutta saivat uudelleenreitityksen.
Henkilökunta oli tosi ystävällistä ja muutenkin koko koneessa oli hyvin rauhallinen tunnelma. Tosin kone oli hyvin vajaa.
Ei mitään hyvää Finnairilla, ei edes ruokaa tai snackseja lennoilla. Ja lennot myöhässä, kuten tämäkin oli taas.
Tässä odottelen laukkua vieläkin niin missähän olis parannettavaa!
Tällä lennolle kaikki sujui hienosti. Henkilökunta toimi ammattitaitoisesti ja lentäjät olivat huippu ammattilaisia, nousut ja laskut olivat hallittua. Kiitos Finnair.
Jokin ongelma saapuessa jolloin bussikuljetus ja kävely toisesta päästä kenttää… kangasmaski käskettiin vaihtaa kesken lennon vaikka osa oli ilman saapuessakin koneeseen Lentolippujen kaivaminen oli haastavaa,sitten keksin liittää finskin appiin
Minulla oli aivan kova nälkä ja halusin ostaa lentokoneessa leivän mutta valitettavasti minä olen nuori enkä omista luottokorttia ja en saanut koneesta mitään koska normaali electron maksu kortti ei kelvannut eikä käteinen kelvannut..
What a great flight. Would do it again without question.
The flight itself was fabulous. The problem is that when we landed at Heathrow, we were unaware that we would be stuck in an hour long security line that made us miss our connecting flight. You should not be allowed to sell a connecting flight package with only an hour layover in an airport that requires extra time to get from point a to point b. It is also a giant airport with multiple terminals. We had to take a shuttle bus from the plane to the terminal which added an extra 20 minutes to our transit. All of this caused us to miss the first three days of our vacation in Israel because every other flight was oversold. It’s a nightmare! Do not fly through Heathrow on BA unless it is your end destination.
Plussat: "Friendly staff"
Miinukset: "Fly on time"
Plussat: "Flight was not full, so despite a sub-par Business Class product the flight was very pleasant with empty seats all around"
Miinukset: "On line check-in/seat selection was a disaster"
Plussat: "We had a long delay that the crew did their best to mitigate while still on the ground in Heathrow, and the Captain invited children to come up and tour the cockpit while we waited! Things like that alleviate any anger and frustration we may have had, and the flight was excellent overall."
Plussat: "Crew and airline was fine"
Miinukset: "Due to the way the flights were booked, even though I flew on the same airline on both legs of my trip they were two separate bookings causing me to wait in line for two hours in Heathrow to get my bags and check back in. I will probably never use kayak / kiwi.com again."
Plussat: "Comfortable new plane, friendly staff."
Miinukset: "Not having over an hour delay followed by buses to disembark resulting in a missed connection."
Miinukset: "not ONE single smile !!!!"

Plussat: "It's a non-stop from Austin to Heathrow. Flight attendants were helpful and professional. Flight was on time."
Miinukset: "This 747 should be refurbished or retired. I've traveled this flight on 777s and newer 747s. This plane was an embarassment."
Plussat: "Friendly and helpful cabin crew, even on this short flight. I liked the fact that the Captain stood outside the flight deck to say goodbye to the passengers. A nice touch."
Plussat: "Entertainment selections were good."
Miinukset: "Screen was not working properly and very hazy, grainy and full of grids."
Plussat: "we took off and we landed"
Miinukset: "Checkmytrip kept giving different information about the flight. once on board with delay first officer said they would try to make up time. Soon it was all about air traffic control. said that FlightConnections would be working on flights for this with missed connections. not true - nothing done while we were flying, and landed"
Plussat: "crew was nice and friendly food was good bit old aircraft so little bit less comfortable"
Miinukset: "Checked-in baggage got mishandled and haven't got any response from British airlines after 24 hrs of complain filed. and on top of it their website is not working can't update my contact details and also cant track status of my complain."
Plussat: "Nice crew, short flight, comfortable seats."
Miinukset: "Only a small carry-on allowed and one SMALL purse. Also, there is a charge for beverages unless you are in first class."
Plussat: "Excellent space and timely departure and arrival."
Miinukset: "Food needs work and movie/tv selection could be expanded. Desired dinner selection was unavailable and second dinner option was extremely salty."
Plussat: "Nothing"
Miinukset: "Everything... including from London to Venice I need check my small luggage and they broke all . The small and the big one how I can be reimbursed for the damages? I need throw in the garbage both luggage’s now..I am really mad about it."
Plussat: "Great flight and services"
Miinukset: "It was all good"
Miinukset: "We paid an extra $60 to select seats up front and they moved our seats to the back of the plane without notifying us."
Plussat: "The efficiency of the boardign"

Plussat: "Scum bags wanted >$5k to change flights, daylight robbery"
Plussat: "Very pleasant crew"
Plussat: "politeness"
Miinukset: "cold"
Plussat: "Welcoming crew"
Miinukset: "Too warm, one of the seats did not recline fully, very poor choice of entertainment"
Plussat: "Flights were on time, staff was courteous."
Miinukset: "leg space was inadequate, air conditioning was not adjustable, choice of indian movies was not very good."
Plussat: "Timely boarding and arrival. Friendly service."
Miinukset: "The entertainment was not really good - very few movie options. Food was so-so, not really anything as good as it can be."
Plussat: "Everything on time. Crew had a smile."
Miinukset: "USB charger was not working in seat 34f."
Plussat: "I require a wheelchair for getting around the airport. When I first checked in at LHR, they claimed to have no record of my wheelchair request and my seat change, despite my very clear notations of who and when these were made. They did have a record of my paying for one suitcase. The agent at LHR promised to make these corrections so I would not have the same problem when returning to London. Furthermore, to turn this into a humiliating situation, at the gate I was informed that the jetway was broken and they would have to find some other way to get me onboard the plane. I cannot believe that British Airways has no contingency plan for a situation like mine. After many discussions between BA reps and ground crewmen they decided to bring me down in a lift at Gate 34, though my plane was at Gate 32. I was then loaded onto the freight platform of one of those food delivery trucks and driven over to my plane. The truck backed into place and again I hoisted up to the plane. However the plane door was locked and we had to bang on it for them to finally open it. To my great embarrassment I helped down the aisle to my assigned seat, looking back at the curious looks and glares from all those passengers who had no explanation for the delay and humiliating scene. Officially the flight was listed at 28 minutes late, when in reality it was 40 minutes till we taxied away from the gate My return flight from Brussels was little better because the changes that were supposed to have been entered at LHR never were and so I had to go through this whole routine again costing me over one hour in delays. Fortunately I was able to board the flight through the jetway and did not have to be hoisted up again, and delivered like freight. How would you rate these flights. I had problems with every single British Airways flight!!"
Plussat: "Extended information from the captain was very nice"
Plussat: "Got food poisoning from flight or Italian restaurant at terminal 3"
Plussat: "The trip was adequate in all aspects for a short haul flight"
Miinukset: "N/A"
Plussat: "the plane was clean"
Miinukset: "3 hour delay, no communication with customers regarding delay or connection. Once we finally arrived st Heathrow for the 2nd leg of our journey, we were put on a later connection, no apologies whatsoever from any of the employees. Overall we spent over 4 hours in the air. We were never served even a glass of water or a bag of pretzels. The seats were very tight with very little leg room, and I am only a 5'6" female."
Plussat: "Left late but arrived on time"
Miinukset: "Had to pay for water (unless you wanted bathroom water) and juice or coffee."
Miinukset: "Boarding the plane. I do not know why the airlines load the people who are at the front of the plane first. Load the people on the back of the plane first. That way, when you call the next section, the people in the back are not blocking people as they enter. An alternative is to call people in sections based on where they sit in a row. If you have window seat, you should be called first. Why? Because so many passengers who have aisle seats have to get up to let people with middle or window seats get in. So, they hold traffic up as people are trying to get to their seats. After window seat passengers get called, then call middle seat passengers, and last, call aisle seat passengers."
Miinukset: "We purchased upgrades to an exit row seat because my knee locks up when cooped up for that long. They changed the plane and I understand that happens but they denied our refund request with 7 days deadline to re-request. So now we have to spend valuable vacation time dealing with their incompetency"
Plussat: "I was prepared with my smart phone and iPad and external batteries, turns out I needed none of those things! What a pleasant surprise for the in flight movies, music and tv to be perfect. I didn't even have to use my external battery on the flight because there is a perfect USB port in the screen in front of you. The food was as good as airplane good gets, the plane incredibly comfortable and staff was attentive. I don't love the long flights but this BA flight is now my go to anytime Im headed to Europe."
Miinukset: "Massively cramped seating. BA needs to work out if it is the national carrier or a budget airline. The seat back of the passenger in front, when reclined, basically trapped me in my seat and made the entertainment screen very hard to see.The crew were efficient but quite rude to the passenger next to me when she hesitated over a meal choice. I will go quite a long way out of my way to avoid traveling on BA in the future, based on this experience."
Plussat: "Al parts of flight expertly handled by staff, especially cabin people. Thanks for a great flight, VA."
Miinukset: "The seats on this British Airways flight were so tight and pitched forward that my knees were jammed into the seat in front of me and I felt as if I was being launched forward the entire flight. Not comfortable or safe."
Plussat: "I wish the menu can be more kid friendly. I enjoy the food no my kiddos"
Plussat: "We didn't crash."
Miinukset: "Rude, entitled and lazy employees. Zero recognition of Emerald status. Forced me to check my bag which fit the onboard limits and flew on 3 flights, incl one on BA - on this very same itinerary."
Plussat: "Nothing"
Miinukset: "Missed the flight and the next flight was to expense had to take a train to my destination and pay $400 extra dollars. Was at airport and checked in 2 hours early sitting at what seemed to be the only London flight going out. Our flight was not listed on the computer monitors and we checked it several times. Our names were not announced over loud speaker and no one helped us to rebook."
Plussat: "The flight attendants were courteous and friendly. Boarding was easy."
Miinukset: "The designer of the business class seats used by British Aiways is surely an acrobat who flies no longer that's two hours. And those at British Aiways who bought into this design probably don't fly at all. Passengers who are sitting in a window seat must literally walk over the passenger in the aisle seat in order to get to the aisle. Flight attendants must serve the passengers on window seats right over those sitting in the aisles. The seats are narrow, and if you're sitting in the aisle, you don't even have a space to put your bottle of water or reading glasses. I can go on and on. This is my last flight on British if I can manage."
Plussat: "Service was very good."
Miinukset: "No choice of main dish for lunch."
Plussat: "The service was excellent and I loved the unlimited movies!!! Great perk!"
Miinukset: "Even though we had assigned seats we did not get them. Flight was late to depart and really close to lose our connection flight, which for a flight that is less than 1hr you are hoping that should never happen."
Miinukset: "flight out of brussels was cancelled due to bombing of airport which was understandable. But instead of re-booking me on the morning flight out of Amsterdam BA made me wait until 5pm to fly out. Luckily I got standby on an earlier flight but it was a headache ."
