A few months ago I left a rather interesting review about this place, and while that did happen I…read morejust have had a change of heart and wanted to thank you for the highlights of the situation such as finding us a hotel to stay in and send back half of us a day earlier, also for the drink and sweet treat you gave us as compensation as they were very delicious and what I've come to realise that all that happened created many memories for my classmates and I as those moments helped us bond over shared experiences so it wasn't all bad! And you made us have a quite nice flight back with good seats aswell which was a highlight

First, the flight was delayed with no updates. At the posted boarding time, we knew there was an…read moreissue because they hadn't even provided a gate. When we finally were told to board, we were yelled for not having our passports ready, even though it was a local flight and we were not told previously to have them out. We were flying business class, and the seats did not even have extra leg room. It was a short flight, but business class amounted to sitting in front and receiving a snack and drink. Then we arrived in Madrid, where after 90 minutes, we started to ask, and an employee told us they were coming and we just have to wait, but we hadn't even given him our flight number yet! The next person we spoke to confirmed they were lost. They told us that we could buy replacement clothing and essentials and we would be reimbursed. Over the course of 3 days, they never contacted us, forcing me to call them repeatedly for updates, only to be told to go buy more clothes. The only instruction we were given was to avoid "luxury items" which we did. In the end, we sent in all our receipts to be told that they were reimbursing less than half our expenses because "only 2 of 4 bags were delayed for 2 days.." When I corrected them that 2 of 2 (all) bags were delayed for 3 days, they said that did not change their reimbursement calculation. I will avoid Iberia at all costs in the future and recommend everyone do the same.

I didn't expect much from this discount airline but didn't expect to get ripped off…read more Upon check-in, we weighed our 2 lightest bags first which we paid for in advance. Upon weighing the 3rd bag, the agent told us we would need to pay for it which I expected. What I didn't expect was that it would be $80! I later found out that bags are priced by weight, so the agent could have charged us for one of our lighter bags. I also found that we also could have openned up the app right there and paid another $15 for a 3rd bag. So I'm pissed that we got a sh!thead agent who knowingly charged us more than she had to. This is certainly cultural for the airline where they do not instill in their employees the need to take care of their customers best interests. Honestly I would probably fly them again if it was really cheap but only because I know better about their baggage scams and crappy customer service.

Can I give Vueling less than 1 star? So many negative reviews on this low-cost carrier and I…read morethought that won't happen to me. I was wrong. I had an issue with 2 carry-ons that complied with cabin baggage requirements, and even paid $25 each at the time of booking to check the bags in the hold (carry-ons were $15 each; I didn' care if I paid $10 too much). But they not only refused to let me carry them on, they charged another $130 (not a typo). The gate agent told me I could file a claim and get a refund, which turned out to be false. After weeks of trying to convince Customer Service that I paid for the bags to be in the hold -- and that's exactly where they put them -- they prevented me from talking with a supervisor, denied the claim, and refused to issue any refund or even partial credit for future travel. (You'd think that'd be a win-win, as I'd be spending more money with Vueling and give them a second chance.) Now, no way I'm flying Vueling again, and I'd caution you to avoid flying Vueling unless you're a glutton for punishment, hidden fees, and awful Customer Service.

We flew Ryanair from Sevilla to Valencia (and back). It is true that you constantly feel like…read moreRyanair is trying to screw you over- from the requirement that you print your own boarding pass (or else they charge you) to the rules about luggage weight and size (if your bag is too big, they charge you) to the reminders that if you are not an EU resident, you must stop at the visa check desk before proceeding through security (or else they charge you). When I finished reading through the 10+ emails Ryanair had sent me in advance of my flight, I felt an intense wave of anxiety. But, truth be told, both of our flights were painless- no one was really checking the size or weight of anyone's bag (admittedly, no one had anything insanely big), the flight staff was friendly (and I actually felt bad for them having to constantly sell things - food, drinks, lottery tickets, BioParc tickets), and the flight was on time. For a budget airlines, they are way better than the American alternative (looking at you, Spirit Airlines). So, in short, play by their crummy rules, and it's a cheap and convenient way to get around Europe.

Easyjet, depending on which airport you're leaving from, is a hit or miss. You are flying into…read moremajor airports, but the staff vary by country in Europe. When we were flying from Madrid to Lisbon, someone got sick on the plane and they held up our plane for 4 hours! To get 3 people off the plane! It was ridiculous and no updates on what was going on! Another time, when the flight from Nice to Marrakech was cancelled due to the rain. They kept us on the plane for 3 hours. Another 6 hours to get our hotel and taxi vouchers for the night. Another 3 hours wait to get a taxi and get to our hotel. Logistics for this airline is just nonexistent. In Madrid, we didn't have a sticker for the stroller and the guy at the desk told us to go back through the gates to get one when our flight was leaving in 15 minutes. We argued with him and he finally got us a ticket from his desk! We missed a flight leaving Marrakech and the next flight was in 3 days. Seriously!?! We had 20 minutes left until the airplane left but they wouldn't even let us get to the gate. I get that my husband was the weirdo who got the time wrong, but make exceptions sometime instead of giving people the only other option to be stranded in a city for 3 more days! Next time, stick with the trains when leaving a city to go to another country nearby.

I have flow with AirEuropa about 5-6 times, all connecting through Madrid. I specifically chose…read morethem since they are a SkyTeam partner, and they offer pretty cheap fares. You're able to bring on a personal item and carry on baggage (they also don't seem to weigh carry on bags, unlike budget carriers). Notably, as a SkyTeam elite member you get a free checked bag and seat selection for regular seats on a basic economy ticket. Pretty good benefits, when things go right. Well the drawbacks are that AirEuropa has been late on half of the flights I've been on, specifically the Madrid-Barcelona route on their Boeing 787 (Flight UX7703), which seems to have a bunch of mechanical problems. The times I've been on this route, it's been delayed due to mechanical issues. Other routes I've been on (Malaga, Lisbon, Frankfurt) are on their 737, and I haven't had as many issues with those flights (if any, a very minor 20-30min delay if any). When you factor flight time, going to the airport, security, and then add on top the delay, it's definitely faster taking the train vs flying MAD-BCN in the experiences I've had. Even though AirEuropa is considered a "main line" carrier, its domestic European routes do not include any amenities (eg no free snacks or drinks). But this is to be expected as it is part of the growing trend of lowering costs by the European air carriers, to be competitive with budget rivals like Easyjet, Ryanair, and Wizz. Now this begs the question? Would I fly with them again? Yes, but not on the Madrid-Barcelona 787 route. I don't recommend this route. I have had too many big delays on this route, that in the future I would prefer to avoid it. But other routes? Definitely, if the price is good.
