We are glinting with united , but over all very disappointed

better announcing at the gate prior to boarding and better organization of various gps

This time, I traveled in the economy, and it was surprisingly better than the eco-premium (food, comfort, and crew were noticeably worse in premium!)

Lots of water brought around by staff which is very important to stay hydrated on a long flight. There provided swiss chocolate icecream! The attention to detail is obvious. They really want to make their passengers entertained and comfortable.

overall the flight was good and we were happy they waited for us. However, our luggage didn t make it and this caused us a lot of problems.

This was an upgrade to business class and really enjoyed the experience. Much better than my earlier flight and thank you.

It was a pleasant experience accept temperature in the plane It was extremely cold in the airplane that I was shivering I got sick because of the extreme cold temperature on my flight

Crew was wonderful, snacks were so good and quite a variety for free, food was mediocre, big selection of movies and they kept lavatories pretty clean throughout the flight

It was unclear that additional passport control was needed before boarding. The seats were cramped and uncomfortable even for small persons. The arm rests were unable to be lifted completely out of the way and the media controls cut-out made them uncomfortable to lean on. One audio channel was not working on one of our seats.

Flight was very full and we had to checkin our carry on. Stuff however promised us that our luggage will be the first one to come out and it did

Liked the size of seats. Not much food offered given length of flight.

Do something about that crying baby the whole flight. lol

Flight was delayed 1.5 hours as crew was stuck in traffic...that is absurd that the airline would be transfering a crew by car through NYC during rush hour. I missed my shuttle bus and got stuck in Vancouver for the night. Airline did not offer a voucher

Very unfriendly crew, Air Canada should hire staff that are willing to do their job and be friendly to others. Unmannered flight attendants.

Appointment wasn’t so bad I think we really made us uncomfortable was that we had a lot of late flights going and coming back but overall the service was great

It was absolutely awful in every week. A mechanical failure led to a 6 hour delay, cancellation and rerouting.

It was all great! Everyone was pleasant and cheerful! I was happy to find that the seatbelt fit me....I found last year on another non-Air Canada small plane that I had to request a seatbelt extender and, as a fairly 'normal' menopausal woman who is definitely medically 'obese' and yet not unusually overweight, having to ask for a seatbelt extender was very uncomfortable. I was happy that Jazz, being also a smaller plane with smaller seats, that I did not need to deal with the discomfort and embarrassment because the seatbelt did fit me! I am grateful as even though this seems like a small thing, it has had an impact on me and I've since chosen not to go with that other carrier. I'm sure that Jazz personnel would have been very polite in accommodating me if it had been necessary, just as the other airline's stewards were, however it's in the 'not having to ask' that I have felt much more welcomed and taken care of. Thank you Jazz.

Sat on the tarmac with no ventilation for almost an hour, without a single word from the crew. Appalling. When Air Canada goes bankrupt, again, almost everyone in Canada will be cheering.

I was in Business Class row 7 on a 787-9. Both times I didn't get my choice of food. Otherwise, excellent!

The flight was delayed and made the connecting flight a last minute dash across Vancouver airport.

I barely made the flight. We had to take a bus to the plane and the plane smelled awfully of body odor. When the flight attendant walked by she smelled of body odor. It was incredibly uncomfortable.

The flight was ok, the flight attendants were lovely, the movies were good, the food was ok, and I am just sad because my luggage didn't arrive with me in Iasi because the flight from Vancouver to Frankfurt was delayed and then I barely made the rest of my flights. Also, there was no real support once I got off each of the flights. There was nobody to ask about gate or where to be and for example when I got off in Vienna to catch the flight to Iasi there was no screen where I could read the gate and time of departure of the plane. I was going crazy trying to find the plane to Iasi and I barely made it. When my luggage finally arrived home it was broken. The handle was completely broken and that was not so good. I am in a visit here, in Romania, and I will have to buy a new luggage.

They offered water and chocolate I would have preferred a sandwich.

Swiss air was a short flight to and from Frankfurt to Geneva. The crew was nice, and the service was fine. Would be nice if they had wifi available.

It was a very full flight, makes it harder for flight crew.

The connection to LYON was very tight. The flight was nearly finished boarding when we got to the gate

No one came to pick my mom up with the wheelchair

Well the flight was 3 hours delayed taking off which lead to missing the next flight in Newark and an overnight stay in a hotel (at my expense) for a next day flight, 1.5 hour long immigration line, etc. Let's just say my travel experience wasn't pleasant.

The flight crew, the on-plane service, and the food were fine. The seats lacked cushioning and were uncomfortable compared to other planes from recent flights. The plane was initially delayed one hour and that expanded to 1.5 hours. When we boarded, there was insufficient room for our carry-on bags, which added more time to disembarking from the plane. It appeared the Air Canada staff or the Toronto Airport staff were less than competent to handle whatever the issue was that caused the delays, which was never communicated.

Boarding was haphazard after people with small children or walking difficulties

On board was excellent—a remarkable positive change. Check in was horrifying. Forced to check in branded cabin baggage approved bags weighing 10 and 12 kgs each, because desk insisted these were not fit for overhead lockers. Got charged £160 for two bags. Behaviour of staff was hostile, motivated and rude. Wonder if BA pays commissions on collection, or borrows staff from Airport operator. Basle evidently is an airport used by budget airline— and customers are treated like consumers.

Everything was fine except not posting the gate number until 14 minutes before boarding. In an airport the size of Heathrow, that was unacceptable.

The least comfortable business class seat I have encountered for a while - very very firm when reclined making sleeping difficult. Cost cutting is visible everywhere - no offer to refill drinks (the wines were not good - so no real issue there :) ) Just not worth what BA charge

the old seats really need to go. they are not comfortable and outdated by many years. I waited over 40 minutes for my bag, unacceptable!

Business class to Istanbul. Packed flight. Cabin crew seemed incapable of differentiating between economy and business passengers with regard to access to the WC which meant whole flight I had people standing in aisle and leaning into my aisle seat, queueing for the front WC. Crew put it down to a lack of curtain between the two classes. The seats, for a 3hrs55 min flight were just standard seats with middle seat unoccupied. So nothing special apart from the food, which was mediocre. Aside from the roast chicken dinner (‘special’ traditional British menu option, which looked poor but tasted good I gather). However 2 king prawns does not make a main course salad.

Could have done with a 2nd round of drinks even if it was only to distribute bottled water

Flights were in time, everything was organized, food was really good!

Berlin airport one of the most inefficient we have ever encountered. We are in our 70’s and we were on our feet 1.5 hours and traveled 4800 steps )2 miles) just to get to our remote gate and security detours.thank god we were there 3 hours before our flight

Flight on time. Food was poor - low quality and hard to eat due to poor layout

Great crew! Average flight. T5 at Heathrow is not such as nice experience compared to other major International airports.
