The plane was old with small storage areas that had problems closing/latching and not enough storage for everyone, and worn, damaged seats. Service was great but feel a little unsafe on such well used planes.

The plane was old with small storage areas that had problems closing/latching and not enough storage for everyone, and worn, damaged seats. Service was great but feel a little unsafe on such well used planes.

Great staff. Wifi is terrible. Signing up for skylines is a painstaking process. Had to call customer service just to get my flight itinerary and confirmation sent to me. Consistent delays. A well staffed company that is run so poorly. Upper management needs to be renewed.

Boarding is, as it always is… horrible. Gate lice. Slow moving zones. Too many people with carry ons

Rode in a smaller plane and short trip meant no snacks, no free wifi or tv. It was only 30min flight so honestly wasn’t a big deal to lack these items.

Kind staff. Snacks are small but that’s the new normal.

I sat in comfort plus. It was fine. Seats were comfortable. I got drinks and snacks.

Good and consistent Printer in lounge did not work for me :(

All fine save for the abominable catering. Really gone downhill. We found it all inedible.

I appreciated friendly service from check-in, to boarding, to in-flight amenities! Attendants were accommodating and helpful. Thank you! Elaine

Was unsure of this flight due to high winds in CVG from Hurricane Helene. Crew did a great job of getting us to CVG safely.

You ant watch TV if you don't have a device, the seats have more space, and the snacks are different.

Flight was empty so had a whole row to myself. Still had to wait to get the bag due to the negligence at Palm Springs departure.

Amazingly comfy flight - I had upgraded for a reasonable price and it was worth it. The food also was good.

Random carry-on baggage inspection before boarding for NO REASON. The crew kept talking loudly the entire time, making it impossible to rest. When I asked the crew for something, they said they would come back later but never did. It was an EXTREMELY UNPLEASANT and UNCOMFORTABLE flight.

Only thing that I liked it that I got to my destination safely, otherwise American Airlines stinks.

Ok. Got us there safely and a bit early. Need food available on this long flight. Almost 3 hours.

It was good overall but the prices of snacks are ridiculous.

Flight was delayed multiple times and I chose to switch to another flight that had a layover. I finally arrived 7 hours later than I was supposed to.

Flight overall was good. Landing was a little rough, but could be attributed to the rainy weather.

Plenty of overhead space but forced to check my carry-ons both legs

Seats are poor. They do not lean back. They do not even have pockets on the back, making it impossible to store a phone or a coke bottle. If you opt for basic economy cheap seats, they stick you always in the middle or window seat, even though there are unoccupied seats on the aisle. And then there is the nickel and diming. No carry-ons. And checking your carry-on is $70. At the end there is no price advantage but there is plenty of aggravation.

The seats were comfortable and not as tight as i would have expected. Would have been nice to be able to recline my seat, which was not available. Some form of free snacks and drink option would be appreciated as well, even just a water and small bag of crackers would have been better than nothing at all.

Bad seats. Very uncomfortable. Crew was fine. Too much upcsharging

WiFi could have been a little more consistent - otherwise a phenomenal and positive experience. The 1000 mile giveaway was awesome!!!

Flight was on time It was a good flight overall

Check in at dtw was understaffed and chaotic. Flight itself was smooth. Airplane seats seemed newly upholstered and comfortable, flight attendants attentive.

More groups for smother boarding, I didnt have any food. and there was no entertainment

- flight attendants not very friendly. - Paid for WiFi and plane didn’t have it working , never got a refund.

Fast check-in. Went through security quickly enough. Got their early. And the crew took care of my seating at the gate. The cost for 1 checked bag is ridiculous! $79!? Cmon!! The seating on the plane was very cramped, like sardines. I did not want to pay extra just to pick a seat. Might have to next time.

The flight was delayed and the announcements were hard to hear, but the crew was great
