Hilariously tiny tray table
Peter P.

I'm not sure what to think of this airline. On one hand, the flights to Florida are dirt cheap ($170 round-trip from Indianapolis to St Pete). On the other hand, they really nickel-and-dime you on everything. You don't get a carry-on (you only get a personal item 2hich must fit u Der the seat in front of you) unless you pay $20 (each direction). The better option (if you have a lot of stuff) is to check a bigger bag for $25. There are no complimentary beverages or snacks during the flight (a bottle of water is $2) and they don't take cash. Seats don't recline at all and there is no in-flight entertainment. This is really basic transportation. My flight was tolerable because I brought my own entertainment (tablet downloaded with videos) and beverage (purchased at the terminal prior to boarding). Also, I chose a seat in an empty row so I could put my backpack (I didn't pay for a carryon or checked bag) in front of an empty seat.

this is currently how long i have been on hold with allegiant after they cancelled two of my flights leaving me stuck in Florida with 100 $ compensation for my flight and no new flights made until tuesday. i was supposed to fly back saturday so i could be back for college, but now i am going to miss class. 3 hours to wait is outrageous and who knows how much longer it will be. 0 stars from me. update: i got freaking tired and hung up after 4 hours of waiting. absolutely ridiculous.

If I could give Allegiant less than 0 stars I would. NEVER USE THEM!!! Somehow they managed to notify me two days ago that my flight today was delayed 1 hour from 2:30 to 3:20pm, yet somehow they failed to send me anything today, the day of my flight, telling me it was delayed 9 hours from 3:20-midnite! Me and my 6 traveling companions (along with a dozen other passengers) found out upon arriving at the airport. As if losing an entire day of my four day vacation to celebrate my little sister's 30th birthday and eating a days worth of hotel cost wasn't enough they told us there was nothing they could do. They said we were notified by email and phone, and then blamed us for not signing up for "email notifications." When I showed her the email notification I received for the 1st delay two days ago and their b.s. $50 voucher on a future flight email from today (like I would ever choose to use their garbage service ever again!), which was the ONLY communication they sent today - nothing anywhere in there about a delay- to prove I was signed up for email notifications all they said was "we'll let the people who send those notifications out know." We asked them to rebook us on another flight and she said "we don't do that." She said if we chose to take another flight with another company we could call Allegiant's customer service number and submit receipts for what we "feel like they owe us" but that it's unlikely they'd pay us the difference for the new tickets. To make it worse, the supervisor told us they couldn't guarantee that the midnite flight wouldn't be cancelled as well! So this company, that I paid a TON of money to MONTHS AGO, asked me to sit in an airport for an additional 9 hours because of their communication ineptitude, with no guarantee that I'd even get a flight at all. My family ended up dropping another $4000 for one way tickets on Southwestern and will be following up with Allegiant's customer service. Thanks Allegiant for wasting my time and money, and for being crystal clear about how few f's you give about your customers.

The staff at the gate was very rude to multiple customers, including but not limited to, me. They…read morehad already barked at me to check if my perfectly reasonably sized carry on would fit in the provided compartment. I obliged, sliding my bag easily into the slot. I waited until I could get one of the gate agent's attention, whereupon she came over and physically checked it herself, then told me "yeah, it's fine." I went back to the seats to wait for my zone to board. When my zone 4 was announced and I got to the *same*agent who had checked the size of my bag not more than 10 minutes ago, she again asked me to check to see if my bag would fit. I politely (truly. I was) told her I had already checked it and that *she* had already said it was fine. She looked at me as if I was lying to her, at which time my companion spoke up and said "we're not doing it again." Yes, I realize this was rude but we were irritated. She rolled her eyes and waved us off, and we boarded where my bag *easily* slid into the overhead bin. The flight attendants were much nicer, and the flight itself was fine, but first impressions go a long way, and this 3-person gate agent impression was deplorable. Will have to remember this and decide whether the cheaper flight is really worth the frustration next time.

My experience with Frontier was disappointing from start to finish. The customer service at…read morecheck-in and during boarding felt passive-aggressive and unprofessional. Instead of helping passengers, staff seemed more interested in publicly shaming people over bag sizes and carry-on policies. Multiple times, employees used the microphone to call out passengers for having the "wrong" bags in a tone that felt condescending rather than informative. During boarding, staff would interrogate passengers about what type of seat they purchased, as if it somehow justified how they were being treated. The entire process felt hostile and unnecessarily confrontational. I understand that airlines have policies, but there is a respectful way to enforce them. Frontier's staff made customers feel like an inconvenience rather than paying passengers. Traveling is stressful enough without being embarrassed or talked down to in front of a crowd. There are plenty of airlines that manage to enforce rules while still treating people with dignity. Based on this experience, I will not be flying Frontier again and would not recommend it to others.

Recently tried Spirit for the first time. Overall the flight was okay. Spirit serves a purpose like…read moreany other thing does. If the ticket plus fees save you $100 or more dollars it could be worth it. I recommend that you sit up front and fly early. The drama usually happens the later it gets & on the back of the plane. Also would suggest that you have everything you need because they not helping without a fee. Make sure you can make the flight, check in on time, able to check in at the kiosk to get your boarding pass and tags for bags if you have any to check. Spirit is very specific about their bag sizes & weight so make sure that you have the right size. You could go to your local airport to verify your luggage fits in the space. Your checked bag cannot be over weight if so that's an extra fee. Make sure the checked bag is under 40pounds. Lastly, refreshments & internet, services come at a fee as well. The first 4 seats seem to be their first class without the curtain & superior service. All my flights were delayed as well so be patient. I think the employees of Spirit make the most the announcements due to the people being impatient. Safe travels

Reading through the other reviews, it seems pretty clear that people only write reviews when they…read morehave had a bad experience. The thousands of travelers who have no problems, or minimal, don't bother to write about it. The airline did what it was supposed to do. What's to write? My wife made arrangements through American. We had a connecting flight in Dallas that took us to our final destination. We had a connecting flight through Phoenix on the way home. Overall, we had a positive experience. She had handled shopping around for the best deals that would get us to our hotels and when it was time to go, she used one of the kiosks and soon had our boarding passes. We checked our luggage quickly too. I think the only problems we had were due to a problem with the plane in Dallas. They detected a problem and had to bring another plane instead. I was fine since the new plane was 10 seats wide, had onboard charging stations, each seat had its own entertainment screen, and since we were flying to the middle of the Pacific Ocean, the plane was working properly. So glad they didn't take a risk with our safety. Sure, it costs us two hours in Hawaii, but I would rather be alive for the rest of the vacation than take a chance with an improperly working one. Sure, the process of charging for every extra like baggage and full meals adds up quickly, it's the price we drove the airlines to by making the no-frills airlines so popular just to save a buck. It's competition. No sense complaining about it. I don't take a lot of trips, so it is hard to say when I would use American next. But based upon my most recent trip, I would have no trouble flying with them again. Review #2390

The worst! I've been flying American Airlines exclusively for 15+ years as an Advantage member but…read moream done with them after our most travel experience, which was nothing short of a nightmare. Long story short, American stranded my wife and kids overnight in Chicago and San Diego (without luggage) while en route from Indianapolis to Phoenix and I had to purchase them tickets on Southwest to get them from San Diego to Phoenix. As a result, it took them 2.5 days to get from IND to PHX and we lost two days of spring break. The worst of it is that American refuses to offer us any compensation, even after filing several complaints with customer service. American Airlines customer service representatives Carla Roman and Chad Brunstein have refused to adequately respond or take my complaints seriously. Find another airline because this one sucks!

The confirmations not only reminded me of the actual time of my flight, but when I could check-in, as well as delays and gate changes. Three days before my outbound flight back to Chicago, I was informed via text message that my flight had been canceled due to FAA-mandated airspace restrictions during the government shutdown. I reacted immediately, booking a new flight which ended up being an earlier time than the previous. It is situations like that where I appreciate updates because I would not have wanted to find out the day of. Now rather than download the United Airlines mobile application, I visited www.united.com where I was able to check-in for my flight early, as well as send my boarding pass to my phone via text in the process. As someone who had just a carry-on bag with me, it allowed me to head straight to TSA rather than to see a United Airlines agent once I arrived at Indianapolis International Airport. As for my airport experience, TSA was not crowded at all despite it being Indianapolis International Airport. I always dread going through security because of the possibility of congested lines, but all went smoothly! The only things I removed from my body were my jacket, and my bracelets placing each item inside either the bin, or my jacket pocket. After that, I was well on my way to locate the gate. The United Airlines gate was easy to find, thanks to posted signage within the terminal; the gate appeared professional with a very well-maintained seating area in comparison to other airlines I have flown out of. I rarely encounter boarding areas with clean seats and no trash left behind, which is just hard to unsee. I loved that there were charging outlets that worked because it gave me the chance to charge my cell phone before boarding my flight back to Chicago. Whether it be the individual booths or the workstations, I was grateful to see so many areas and seats with charging outlets. Boarding with this airline was very painless! Announcements were made which gave me the time to browse around the terminal prior to the time my boarding group boarded. It was by far one of the best boarding experiences I have ever had out of my many times of flying. I feared that my flight back to Chicago would be delayed, but thankfully it was not. With having to change my flight 3 days ago, I was very concerned and glad that it did not happen. As for the airplane interior, I loved that the seat was spacious enough to where I could adjust myself while seated. I had an acceptable amount of foot space to where my military-style backpack could fit underneath the seat in front of me. There were no charging outlets within my seat, but thankfully I was able to charge my phone prior to boarding the airplane. While onboard the flight, I got some rest during this short flight back to Chicago, which I am grateful for. Onboard, the only communication I had with the flight attendants was the boarding flight hello, and the airplane departure "thank you" and "goodbye" greeting. In closing, I am very open to choosing and recommending United Airlines to a friend, relative or colleague after this experience. Safe travels, and blessings to all that read this review. ~ Good vibes coming your way ~ Thomas G
