Make sure your booked flight is not air rouge. Plane is smaller, very tight leg room and limited overhead room for carry on luggage. Not a comfortable plane to ride on.

Air Canada is terrible. Don’t expect you will arrive on time and plan for this.

It was horrible. The flight crew was unfriendly and the food was absolutely horrible.

It was horrible. The flight crew was unfriendly and the food was absolutely horrible.

Absolutely horrible. The fight member crew or not very friendly and the food was horrible.

Terrible experience will never fly Delta again. Delayed flight with total disorganization and inept crew who wouldn’t communicate.

Will try never to fly Delta international again. Flight delayed and staff completely inept in dealing with it. Would not communicate, rude, completely disorganized. Once we reached Seoul the staff there had no idea what to do with us and led us around the airport from one pointless line to another. They were clearly not told how to manage the situation even though they had hours to make a plan. Never again.

Food tasted pretty good. Boarding was very smooth and efficient, compared to all other airlines I’ve been on. I have flown EVA, Cathay, Asiana, British Airways, and many USA brands. Cabin attendants were also efficient and professional.

Overall, very uneventful and pleasant experience. Most importantly, no delays.

The flight crews were extremely professional helpful and courteous. Departure and arrival times were accurate. No delay. Thanks

The flight crews were extremely professional, helpful, and courteous. Departure and arrival times were accurate. No delay. I will use K airline again. Thanks

We were seated at the back and that was very uncomfortable for me with the turbulence we experienced on our way to Chicago.

Everything about Korean air is great, hands down! Will always prefer this airline from other carriers.

Cathay was not the problem. The problem was the customer service from Kayak/Underprice. Will never book through Kayak again.

The crews were smiling all the time with soft tunes when they spoke; the food was excellent. Thank you!

Cathay flight was fine, Amsterdam airport was a nightmare, spent way too much time walking to our next connection, no travelators.

Was a nice experience, crews were nice and accommodating. My only complain is the super tight leg room for the economy class.

The crew is amazing, very attentive. They went above and beyond when we had a small spill. the food on this trip was not nearly as good as other Cathay flights. The economy seats are very comfortable, but when the person in front of yo reclines, you need to recline to see your screen or be comfortable.

From Chicago to Hong Kong was great., but from Hong Kong to manila we had hard time looking for the gate of our connecting flight. There wasn’t hardly any sign.

Cathay Pacific helps me with the planning due to weather delays. Well planed flights.

Cathay Pacific handle my plane delay very well. I will book with Cathay Pacific again in the future trips.

It as great, my in flight entertainment was malfunctioning though.

Flight crew went above and beyond to make sure the flight was enjoyable for us!

Overall good flight. The pilots were excellent. It was a nice flight, but the seats were a little uncomfortable.

United airlines was top for my last trip in every way

Booked a united Air flight with option to pick seat , then found out was on an Air Canada flight with assigned seat , then they wanted a several dollar charge for some 25 cent value entertainment listening ear device

Connection coordination with Star Alliance partner could be better. Lots of check in setup was not interlinked between operators.

The free snack options are pretty pitiful for a 2.40h flight.

Basics were there, but a 5:15 flight with almost no food ans no entertainment, it is quite long.

Onboarding process was great and efficient. Plane was very new and entertainment choices were great. The only complain is no meal despite it was a flight that is longer than 6 hours.

My connecting gate in .Chicago was across the aisle from my arriving gate. Otherwise I would not have made my connection. So that was very fortunate.

Bad, they delayed my flight, lost my connection flight had to stay overnight for the next flight and missed a lot of important meetings. 1 day totally lost!

Flight was delayed due to weather and clogged toilet. Had to deplane. Flight was 3 hours delayed. Crew was awesome and offered water and snacks.

The flight was on time and shorter time arrival than planned. I was an ultra basic passenger and understood one personal item on the plane. The announcements of one personal item and zone 9 boarding certainly felt like we were separated from the rest. Actually zone 9 passengers should be boarded second; we are not blocking aisles and can be seated much faster and deboarded faster too.

Still sitting in a hotel when I'm due for work

Delays happen but communication and care were very low on what ended up being a long day.

Never been on a long haul flight that didn't have on flight entertainment. I hope the way back is better !

Very easy boarding. The on board snacks were not good.

They canceled the flight with no reason given they should not be in business

We had a 44 minute layover ( ??? ) to change planes for our flight to SRQ. We landed at Concourse D, and the SRQ plane was located at Concourse B, as we were told in Toronto. We got to "B4" as directed by ( Delta Help ), in less than 10 minutes, only to see the flight we booked to leave at 2:28, was showing "DEPARTED". Back to Delta Help, got an extremely obnoxious and rude clerk who gave use two options, next flight leaving 5:20, on "B12", (STANDBY). or (CONFIRMED), leaving around 8:PM, not sure of the exact time because they took our seat request and gave us another boarding pass minus the exact time. We had been waiting hours for the 5:20 flight and at the very last minute a group appeared and were allowed to board. When the "standby" folks were summoned, several were allowed to board ahead of us, even though we were there much earlier. The clerk, who gave his name as Markus, a black man with a beard, was the most arrogant. rude and condescending individual in existence. When I asked him to repeat his name he said "what did it sound like?". Had I been thinking I would have answered to me it sounded like (markasshole) which is exactly what he was. When we originally got to that gate and asked for advice, he went on and on telling me he could only comment on the flight that was in progress, that ATL was a big airport, and treated us, both, in our 80"s like we were children unable to understand the process, and directly in my face in a loud voice, shouted exactly what we were already aware of. Not one ounce of consideration for our problem, of just trying to get home. When he called out the names of the remaining "standby" people, he left several go before us, even though we were there waiting hours earlier. He called out our names, John and Nubia, looked at us and shouted out that he only had ONE, and with a grin on his face, let another standby board, and told that person that she got the "lucky" last seat, still grinning, meaning we had to wait once again for the later flight. This obviously prejudiced and biased poor excuse of human beings needs to find a job he is better suited for, perhaps dog catcher or janitor, IMHO. This entire fiasco put us home more than 7 hours later than previously indicated on our original and paid for flight schedule. If Kayak continues to offer flights with different concourse locations and with only a 44 minute layover, they might also consider a more reasonable and reliable time frame for layover. It was a horrible experience and considering alternatives to this service is paramount.

Plane was tooo small, making cracking sound felt lime its breaking down. No tv, wifi doesn’t work. Only 2 restroom

Flight was re-scheduled for the next day. No voucher for a hotel offered. Boarding was delayed by almost 1 hour. No free meal or even water was offered on board. When tried to purchase a coke, was denied because they didn’t accept coins less than 1 euro denominations. A young male flight attendant was especially rude and unhelpful.

My connecting flight was switched without proper notice. Spent the night at the airport. Missed my hotel room and rental car due to this inconvenience. Trying to remain positive.

On time, boarding was quick. Leg room plenty, entertainment choice great. Friendly hosts too

Speechless! How professionally running. I am so proud of Air Canada 🍁 👏 ..

Easy airport. Luggage was late coming in but was handled quickly by excellent and helpful folks at Lost Luggage who got my luggage to me by 7 am the next morning! Bravo!

Everything but the actual plan was good. I would expect a 5hr flight would have at least chargers for mobile devices. Especially considering since the airplane had no screens for entertainment either. Seats were tighter than usual too.

The service was excellent from start to finish. However, it’s best not to order a gluten free meal because they combine it with dairy free, fat free, low sodium, and every other specialty diet variation that exists, and serve you boiled chicken and mashed potatoes for lunch. Yuk!

I hadn’t noticed that I was on the budget carrier so I suppose it’s my fault. But that’s a long flight to have no entertainment and few food options,. Only one drink service offered during the entire flight.

Female flight attendant was SO wonderful. Funny and entertaining g and engaging. Great flight

I liked the plane, a Boeing 787. Having to buy food on a domestic flight (although now common on other airlines too) is an irritant.

After several delays, the flight was canceled. I was “lucky” and able to get rebooked on a flight that left two hours later. The flight itself was fine although I didn’t like my meal. Flight delays and cancellations are far too common on Air Canada.

Window button was broken and display on seat is not functioning properly
