Very comfortable - thanks. Only small criticism was the delay in disembarking caused by the passengers in the front two rows chatting to the cabin crew.
Probably one of the best flights I’ve had! From entering the airport, to boarding to landing.
Plane had a maintenance problem two hours into the flight and we had to turn around. Alaska was nice to put us up in the Hilton in LAX but the cost of food in the city was WAY higher than our vouchers and the hotel had no continental breakfast. We ended up spending over $100 on food for our family in addition to the vouchers.
My Alaska Airlines trip from bend, Oregon to Portland, Oregon was good. Everything was well organized boarding was easy and the flight was quick. The only reason I rated the food and entertainment as mediocre is because the flight was too quick to have any food or entertainment.
Delays, delays, delays.... (and) Told no room for carry on after boarding B Group and told to drop off our carry on at door to be checked in instead. There was plenty of room left in the overheads above our seats right up to the end of boarding!!!!
The plane boarded on time. Takeoff and landing were smooth despite the wind. The flight was too short for any food, drinks, or entertainment.
Good, very quick flight so there was no food or drinks which is ok
Seats were the least comfortable that I can remember ever having. Seat location just across from lavatory doors was not a good location to say the least. Wife has a back problem and to have a seat that is no adjustable for posture was torture for the three plus hour flight
Portland reservationist required me to check bag… tho always been ok as carryon before this experience. She didn’t ask my name or destination, seat number; only looked at boarding pass. She then sent my bag to wrong destination: Idaho Falls instead of Bzn, Mt. I spent 1 hr in Bzn trying to get this straightened out and locating where my bag might be? The Bozeman customer service was great and figured out the error that occurred in Seattle. They were wonderful, filed a claim and located my bag. They also offered me compensation for my problem which was helpful. Missed my meds last nite and following morning. Hope this will be resolved later today. 🙁
I was able to upgrade easily on the way home to first class. No problems with luggage. Efficient time management getting us to our destination on time
They delayed flight because lack of staff then missed connection. Never flying with kayak or weather
WestJet claims that tickets purchased through a 3rd party (such as you kayak) they cannot make sure they mention the luggage situation. We purchased tickets that wouldn’t allowed any carry on. WHAT!? So ridiculous. We bought them and there was not one single place mentioning that. Then on our departure the WstJet attendant was a super nasty rude person. Very unprofessional, unpleasant. She should be reprimanded and given some sort of training but I believe that won’t change her nasty disposition. On our return was great, the front desk gentleman was really professional, friendly and helpful. He offered us to pay $18 usd each for our carry on backpacks as they were small (instead of $90 each at the departure, she could have mentioned but decided not to do so. Didn’t print my boarding pass with my full name as in the passport and made the flight delay because the crew needed to correct it).
Scrooge airlines spoiled my last chance at Christmas with my 95 and 92 year old folks. and rest of the family in Calgary. Ticket personnel would not let me on without a passport and I always visit Canada with my enhanced driver;s License when I travel from the US
Flight was delayed due to mechanical issues to the point that I missed my connection and had to wait for 6 hrs in Calgary... thankfully I wasn't in a rush or that would have been annoying
It was an awesome experience flying with Westjet. This was my first domestic flight experience in Canada.
The additional charge for the WiFi was not worth it. Streaming a football game was a joke as it continued to lag will be requesting a refund
Flight was delayed 1.5 hours. Baggage took 45 minutes to reach carousel
The quality of service at WestJet has really decline in the past couple years. Now they rarely leave on time and are full of excuses to obviously try to minimize their responsibility for compensation. Reality and what is mentioned at the gate for delaus rarely jive. If you apply for compensation even if appropriate, you are declined. They need to get back to doing the small things great rather than look for more reasons to grab money.
I had a guy behind me kneeing me in the back due to his limited leg room and the stewardess kindly relocated him. I was very grateful.
Flights were great. Food was great. More information about the requirements for plane transfer in Canada would have been helpful. I almost missed it.
Horrible I had a health emergency and couldn’t go Air Canada refused to allow me to reschedule
Really poor travel experience. My first flight was cancelled, which cut my international trip short and threw off my schedule. I will not be flying Air Canada again if I can so help it. The crew and in-flight experience was pleasant and enjoyable but the consistent delays and cancellations are not worth it.
Economy middle seat was so narrow that I could not sit back comfortably with passengers on either side of me. Over the 9-hour flight, with my body slightly twisted most of that time, my previously-healthy left knee became very painful, even though I got up to walk multiple times. The knee is still painful 3 weeks later. Otherwise, it was a nice flight, but I was crippled over my entire vacation.
On the Vancouver to NRT flight, The staff were condescending and withheld at times. There were times when they appeared to be more concerned with socializing with each other than appearing professional. I know it must be a hard job, but being chatty and handsy with each other in the public view only to be condescending to customers isn’t a good look.

No entertainment what’s so ever so you may want to prepare yourself. Our flight was delayed.
We were sent via the ac app to a wrong gate. And then got a boarding message to the original gate. Had to run through the airport to get to the gate just in time. Were they purposely trying to trick me? The day before flight was sent a message for free change of flight. Kinda suspect they oversold the flight.
The crew and food were very good. The plane was dirty..
It was absolutely awful in every week. A mechanical failure led to a 6 hour delay, cancellation and rerouting.
Had to buy headphones. Which is sad. I did not so I listened to podcasts and slept. Free beer is excellent a d those pretzels are great too. Overall I feel Air Canada slightly exceeds Westjet for overall experience. But still more can be done. Like allowing guests to view a movie for free.
