    Crash trucks in Reno

    Still surprised this airline is in business with as many complaints they get. Never heard back from them. I do tell people about my experience with them and I will walk or swim before ever considering flying with them.

    My seat was completely torn from the base before the flight. But flight attendant said it's ok. In what world is it ok?

    Mmmmm...a closer look at my delightful view on this miserable flight.

    I'm trying hard to imagine a way in which an airline could be worse. With even the most creative minds intentionally trying to come up with a way to make the experience more negative, I don't think they could do it. I give myself 1 star for having been so short sighted as to book a flight with Spirit. I travel often and this was a sad mistake on my part. As is abundantly clear by the comments here, the luggage fees are obscene. Checked bag, must be under 40 pounds...$60. Carry on....$60. So an additional $120 for basic luggage? Gross. Sitting in the plane for around an hour with a mask on before we finally take off. Drink cart comes up the aisle and I am genuinely thirsty and oxygen deprived. I ask for a cup of water and she says "That will be $3." I laugh but she can't see it because of the mask. Then I realize she was serious. What a joke! Another flight attendant tells me it's due to Covid protocol. This was ironic to me because A. Delta was able to provide me with a cup of water for (gasp) free just two days earlier. The kicker for me, was staring at this nasty glob of hair and bugs stuck to the back of the head rest in front of me. Covid cleanliness anyone? This felt like a low budget scam every step of the way. I will never make the mistake of booking with this "airline" again.

    Brand New airplane with No Wi-Fi or anything else.

    If I could give this airline no stars I would! 1st and last time ever flying this airline. I purchased 2 checked bags thinking I purchased 2 carry on bags, but was asked to leave the line and once I talked to the guy at the gate and explained the mistake and that I ended up the only person with a bag, but I was told that even with purchasing 2 checked bags I unfortunately still owed $9.00. Once on board the airline the flight crew talked down to us like children and even got rude to passengers they thought weren't listening to them

Unfortunately, I experienced the worst service by the first class steward today on 09/23/26 (Flight AS 410). As I entered the plane's cabin, there was no welcome or greeting. I was told, not asked, to put my hand-carry and purse in the storage above my seat. It was very small and I had difficulty placing the bags in the bin. No assistance was offered by the steward. It was obvious I was struggling with the bags. Without going into too much detail, it was also clear that I had a handicap at this time. I was told, again, not asked, to make sure I could not have anything with me. And to take a seat. I felt extremely uncomfortable and rushed. The female steward was outright rude and condescending towards me. To make matters worse, the first class seat appeared not to recline more than 2 inches and the treatment and service I received during the flight was not representative of any ticket price, first or coach. In order to watch a movie, I had to use my cellphone and earbuds. No screen or iPad was provided here. Not much service of any kind was provided here in first class. I have received and experienced far greater service with other airlines in coach and comfort seats. The restroom is narrow and small as well. During the entire flight, it appeared that the flight steward had an issue with me and my flight companion. My worst experience so far on an airlines. Shame on you Alaska Airlines, please do better.

What I really struggled with was the horribly cramped seating; It's been a long time since I felt that restricted on any airline with such a small amount of "personal space". I was looking to connect to the in-flight WiFi and use my laptop to get some work done throughout the flight. I lowered the tray table and sat my laptop there, but had absolutely no room to move, and I had to apologize to the passenger on my right (I was in an end seat) as I brushed him with my elbow a few times when trying to reach certain keys. Also, each time the person in the seat in front of me would lean back, the screen of my laptop would get crunched between the tray table and the upper part of the seat. Luckily the WiFi was adequately fast and I was able to get a lot of work done during that 5 hours in the air, but I did so while feeling really restricted. I realize carriers have been moving seat rows closer together so they can fit more in and thus make more revenue, but this Delta flight was ridiculous. Had I been taller or had a wider arm span, I'd have really struggled.

You will be pestered with emails suggesting to pay for this and that in advance to make your trip more pleasant or predictable. You MAY be asked to prove that your hand luggage fits in their size bins (there were two next to my gate with stern warnings, so you can try in advance). You CAN pay through the app in the airport if you need to convert your personal item into a carry-on but that will eat some of the savings. The seats do not tilt; because of that the seating area is actually wider and pant size 42 man comfortably fits with no intrusion to the neighboring space. IMHO 44 should fit too. Your flight crew WILL be nice and bottomless tea or coffee will be 4 bucks. The lavatory is, probably, not cleaned between the flights. I was first and the seat was already "sprinkled" and one of two rolls of toilet paper was already down to the bare core. Short delays are very common with Frontier (at least on LAX-SEA they are) but usually they recover most of it through the flight. My flight left 20 minutes late but arrived on-time. If you fly with just the "personal item" AKA small backpack 18x14x8", accept the toilet situation (I am not saying that they never clean, only that on my flight it was not - for sure), and OK with the need to walk / take a free shuttle from the gate to the airplane, you will save 35%. If you have carry on, you will save ~15%, and if you are flexible with your travel dates, you will fly half-price comparing to the major airlines. The caveat is the usual - no changes and no upgrades of anything.

Do note that if you fly with a partnering airline (in this case, mine was Royal Air Maroc from Casablanca to Doha), check in process may vary. Service: Very attentive and friendly staff!

Everything was so so delicious and the menus itself had so many options to pick from Seating: I had Seat 8 (rear facing) and honestly, can't really tell the difference once flying in the air. The privacy door was chef's kiss and it just felt amazing to have your own space. Seat itself was very comfortable. One thing I would recommend bringing if you want to work on the plane is a HDMI cord! You can hook your laptop to the bigger screen :) Bathroom: Very spacious and always so clean! Definitely made it a pleasant experience to change into pajamas without worrying about the "wet" floor. Comparing this experience to the one Emirates business class flight I took in the past, I would say Qatar Airways definitely won with the food and service.

The airline is known for offering flights to the most destinations around the world. I flew on Turkish a few years ago from Seattle to Thessaloniki via Istanbul during spring break. For the most part, it was a good experience. The pluses are mostly with the in-flight experience. They use Dreamliner planes and serve tasty meals on all flights, including my short haul flights to and from Greece. The IFE system has extensive entertainment and they give all passengers an amenity bag on long haul flights. Lastly, the baggage allowance is generous as you can check in 2 bags. I do also want to bring up some items to consider booking on Turkish. My flight to Istanbul was nearly a hour late, but I still made my connection. Try not to book flights with short layovers. Also some of the connections have long layovers to destinations in the Middle East and Central Asia with flights arriving at odd hours. You may want to consider doing a stopover in Istanbul instead, which Turkish has a good program for. Lastly, gate security in Istanbul is extensive. So expect a thorough check of your carryon items before your flight. Overall, I enjoyed flying on Turkish. It is a well run airline with good fares to Europe and a great in-flight experience. However, you should consider travel time, especially layovers and the amount of backtracking needed to get to your destination when deciding whether to book.

    Had amazing experience flying from Seattle to Helsinki to my home country Latvia with Finnair…read more Finnair expanded their flights and I was happy to see that I can fly trough Helsinki instead of Frankfurt to my home country out of Seattle because layover was shorter and it's also only 1 hour flight from Helsinki to Riga. Finnair partner up with British airways business lounge and it was very decent food and drinks (compare what I had with Lufthansa last year few celery sticks and a cookie). The lounge wasn't so big and one can hear some rude people speaking loud on their phones but it had a nice view of the runway. Our flight was on time and I was settling in my Business class seat after short boarding process. They welcomed me with the drink ( I choose their signature blueberry juice and Northern Blush cocktail -must try) and they also provide amenity kit (which was disappointing) It didn't had toothbrush or any socks, also their cream had very bad smell and texture. I hope they will improve that. The wireless phone charger didn't work for me because my phone has a case and it was not picking it up. Pillow blanket and pad were provided, also I noticed that I didn't got any slippers because when I was leaving the plane I saw many people had same slippers. Food was very good on the way there. I had for an appetizer crab meat with mayo mousse, caprese salad and nice piece of salmon with veggies. For dessert I had raspberry tart with tea. And plenty of blueberry juice- thats my favorite! (Unfortunately food on the way back wasn't great. They ran out of their signature drink Northern Blush at Helsinki which is Finnair hub!!! Smocked salmon on the way back was too salty and too smocked. Weird food options like shrimp quiche for breakfast or pork dinner which is not so appealing even to person that doesn't have any dietary restrictions. Both breakfast and dinner were bad, breakfast looked poor and tasted poor and dinner I couldn't even eat. Also why to serve cauliflower as a side on a long haul flights). Important to note seat doesn't recline but it lay flat! So you can't adjust it for a recliner like on other planes. Also belt is like in a car. But it didn't bothered me because I could adjust leg part of the seat but not the back. Entertainment was good and they had a lot of good new movies available. I wasn't bored at all! I watch Missis Harris goes to Paris (what an amazing inspirational movie) and The unbearable weight of massive talent. Bed was cozy and I had 4 h nap and woke up to breakfast. Hour and a half before landing in Helsinki they served us Breakfast which was very generous. It had cheese & ham, croissant, bread muffin, fruits, omelette, yogurt and mini jam. I was full and ready to spend 6 h layover at Helsinki! (Originally was 1h40m but then they changed it) Enjoyed my flight and definetely will consider again.

I was a bit skeptical at first as I had originally booked with British Air, only to find out that the flights were operated by Finnair.

You must try their signature blueberry juice! There was a slight delay departing Seattle, but I had no issues with my connecting flight in Helsinki. All of my other flights took off on time, and we arrived a few minutes early each time. The only drawback is with luggage. My particular ticket was for carry-on luggage only. Finnair has a max combined weight of 8kg (~17.5 lbs), which can be difficult to meet with most suitcases. I used a light-weight travel backpack and just barely made the cutoff. Overall, Finnair exceeded my expectations, and I highly recommend them for anyone traveling from Seattle, WA to Vilnius, Lithuania. I will be flying with Finnair again!
