Can't blame United Airlines for an ATC-related construction issue affecting flights into SFO. One passenger was being extremely rude, cutting in front of people who had already been waiting in line, acting as if she was the only person affected. Latoya, on the other hand, was incredibly professional and patient while explaining the situation, something that was completely outside the airline staff's control. Even though my wife's and my connecting flights to SFO and Zurich were delayed, the team was clearly working hard to help everyone. People really need to understand the difference between what employees can control and what they can't. Latoya handled the situation excellently despite dealing with a very self-centered passenger complaining nonstop about making it to Dubai (boooohoooo) read more

They suck. Never again. Here to check in. They are closed down with huge line. WTF is going on here????? No windows open. What kind of crappy airline is this??!!!??? Can't even print tag for bags. read more

Flight from Chicago to Sacramento. It was an uneventful flight, which is what you want. The flight left on time and arrived early. Boarding went smoothly. We were in boarding group 4 and there was still room for roller bags. On flight they came with full drink service twice and water service once. The snacks they gave out were good. Fruit bars, something, and a chocolate snack. We didn't purchase any snacks on board. They had free movies if you used your smartphone, I forgot earbuds so I couldn't listen. No turbulences so it was a great flight. read more

Flew here from Denver on the way to Lake Tahoe. Ample, spacious and friendly. And had numerous food and local outlets. Terminal 2 is convenient to local transport. Good enforcement measures on the pickup areas. As airports go, this smallish airport is better than many mega airports. read more

ZERO REVIEW-UNITED INTERESTED IN PROFIT NOT PEOPLE PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE will someone call me back? Shortly after a door flew off a Boeing 737 in January last year, my wife and I were delayed 3 days in Newark, NJ. I have spent over 30 HOURS talking with United Airlines Baggage Specialist departments, and emailing with customer service representatives over the last several months. I cannot even receive reimbursement for our food, clothing, and hygiene products we had to buy ($569). I have emailed the receipts to customer care. Customer care continues to say United baggage department will care for these receipts. Then United baggage says something entirely different. Tonight in my (3hours and 7 minute) phone conversation, I did receive a new reference number for my wife to be compensated. Jerry, a baggage specialist, gave me the number Xxxyyyzzztttyyy When I was transferred (by Jerry) to the department that he stated was going to handle my wife's compensation, the next specialist stated she only dealt with "POST BAGGAGE COMPENSATION" and that I needed to speak to someone in "MID-TRAVEL" baggage compensation. I asked to be transferred to said department, and the United rep said, "that they do not have a phone number for mid-travel baggage department as it is just like United Customer Care and does not have a phone number ". My wife and I are disabled retired missionaries. I have been treated so poorly by United Airlines that I have asked a local news station in Sacramento to help me look into this matter. United Baggage compensated me $250 in the form of a travel voucher. Tonight I was told that my wife would be compensated the same $250, that's it. When I was transferred again with the new reference number mentioned above with absolutely no resolution. I was told that Customer Care would need to pay for our dining receipts and a division of United Baggage would pay for our clothing and hygiene products. An attachment for the $250 compensation to me said that by accepting it United was released in any further interest in the matter. But I had no way of not accepting it as it was credited directly to my miles account. So, to recap. We checked in at Newark airport on January 10, 2024. We turned our bags in at the check in. The flight was initially delayed 8 hours. We did not have access to our clothing or travel items until we finally arrived in Sacramento on January 12. United did give us a small amount of food vouchers for the 2 nights and 3 days we were stuck in the greater New York area. The vouchers almost paid for each of us to have one meal a day. Can someone from United Airlines call me and make this right, please? All I am getting is a complete run around. I just don't understand how a company with such a good reputation as United could completely care less about our flight delay of 3 days? Tonight I asked to be connected with United Airlines legal department only to be told that like Customer Care, the legal department does not have a phone number. CAN SOMEONE AT UNITED AIRLINES PLEASE HELP ME GET THIS TAKEN CARE OF PROPERLY? Please make this right I EXPLAINED TO UNITED WE ARE DISABLED MISSIONARIES LIVING ON HUMBLE MEANS. AND YET I HAVE NOT CALLED ME BACK! They left us for 3 days, and I was so sick I almost had to got to the hospital as soon an arrived to our destination. THIS HAS LED ME TO BELIEVE UNITED DOES NOT CARE read more

NEVER, EVER, EVER will I book a package trip with United Packages or Booking.com again. This trip turned into a nightmare thanks to the complete incompetence of United Airlines Packages and Booking.com. I'm a single mom of three. I saved and worked hard to plan a special trip for my son's 16th birthday -- something he'd remember forever. Instead, it turned into chaos, stress, and heartbreak -- and ended up costing me thousands of dollars more, all because of their miscommunication, negligence, and complete lack of accountability. I booked and paid in full for flights and hotels for four people to Japan. Everything was confirmed. But the moment we arrived, the entire trip unraveled. At our first hotel in Tokyo, I was told the reservation was only for 2 people, not 4. I had to pay extra out of pocket just to stay the night. I assumed it was a one-time glitch. I was wrong. At the second hotel, it got even worse -- Booking.com hadn't paid the hotel at all. I had to pay for the entire stay again, or we would've been out on the street. No help, no apologies, no accountability. At the third hotel, again, our reservation was only for 2 people. They wanted to charge me for a second room just so my kids would have a place to sleep. I was done. I had no choice but to cut our trip short and fly home early, devastated and drained. Since coming home, I've been begging for help -- providing all the receipts, screenshots, proof of payments, and charges. But all I've gotten is the runaround. Hours on hold, bounced back and forth between United and Booking.com, and zero answers. Their customer service is robotic, dismissive, and completely unwilling to take responsibility for the mess they created. I've lost thousands of dollars, precious family memories, and all the joy this trip was supposed to bring. My son spent his 16th birthday watching his mother stress, cry, and try to keep it together in a country we were supposed to enjoy together. This wasn't just a trip -- this was something meaningful for my family. And they destroyed it. All I want is a refund for the charges I never should've had to pay, and for these companies to take ownership of the pain they caused. If you're reading this -- please don't make the mistake I did. Never trust Booking.com. Never book a package with United. They will take your money, leave you stranded, and ignore you when you need help most read more

Flight from Sacramento to Chicago was okay. The plane had those seat screens to watch movies for such a long flight. They provided snacks which weren't that great. The good thing about their beverages were that they gave you the whole can or bottle. The flight back to Sacramento however was different. We got an older plane. There were no seat screens and the seat chargers didn't work. Which resulted in a kid behind me throwing a tantrum due to boredom the majority of the flight. Also it wasn't a smooth flight like the first one. read more

I'm not even going to say they have the worst customer service. I can only say they have no customer service!!!! I purchased flights from Sacramento to London and then Reykjavik back to Sacramento. They used a third party airline, air Canada for the leg from Reykjavik to Toronto, and Toronto to Washington DC. We were trying to determine our seat assignments for the Canada segments because they weren't reflected. After much time chatting with UA their response was call Air Canada there's nothing they can do to help me. Here's a news flash, I didn't make my reservation, you did. I didn't pay several thousand dollars to Air Canada, I paid the money to UA. And you gladly took my money. How you source your flights is up to you, but at a minimum you cover service for the entire trip. this forms my opinion that United Airlines has no clue what customer service is. No wonder they are not the number one carrier! read more

Corona response plan: Fill plane to capacity Yep! The plane was filled to capacity. We flew from SMF to DEN for a change of planes then on to SGF. We took a smaller plane to Branson MO. We have a WorldMark resort there so that will be our home for 4 nights during the Labor Day weekend. We had such a bad experience on our first time flying United that we were hoping for a much better experience this time and, guess what? It was actually better this time. Traveling changes during COVID-19: Boarding fewer customers at a time. After preboarding, the rest of us boarded from the back of the plane to the front. We were given a packet of a sanitizing wipe as we boarded. Snacks and water were provided during the two hour flight. We were also given a choice of soda or juice. When we deplaned we were in groups of five rows at a time so less crowding. We were required to wear masks throughout the entire flight. There were no mechanical issues and we even took off and arrived a little early. Review #1327 updated read more

Last month we flew from New Jersey to Sacramento. We paid $2500 for two first class tickets. The entertainment system on the plane was down and all the power outlets were not working at the seats. The service and food were well below average. On top of that, when we arrived in Sacramento, one of our bags had the wheel ripped off and my golf travel bag had several rips in the material. Our third bag ended up in Cleveland. I repeatedly complained to United and they extended a $100 flight credit which was a joke. We will never fly United again. The services on the plane were horrible, the baggage handling was a beyond horrible and customer service trying to resolve this for us made an insulting offer. Mike - Granite Bay, CA read more

Crazy Trip From Sacramento To Houston On Cramped Jet SITREP I really miss the 90s when jet-travel meant better customer service, more in-flight amenities, not getting nickeled-&-dimed for every aspect of the flight, etc. etc. etc. THE SETUP If you haven't traveled on United Airlines ("United") recently, not only is: * The extra 2nd carry-on bag monetized; but, * So is the FIRST bag of luggage; and, * So is your boarding group to get onto the jet; AND, * So is your seat position in the jet aircraft itself. Wherever there is a category aspect to air travel (boarding, luggage, seating, aisle vs. windows, etc.), there is now a separate $ dollar-amount attached to it. DOMINO EFFECT This is where traveling United really requires you to cross-reference your entire itinerary. On this specific flight, I had LESS than 45 minutes in a layover to catch my flight - ON United no less - from Houston to Savannah. If the layover had been 2-4 HRS, I could care less about my placement in the boarding group, or where I sat on the plane. But not wanting to miss my next flight, I had to responsibly pop for each and every cost-upgrade from: = (deciding before the flight) to NOT do any checked-in luggage, = to pay $51 to move up from Boarding Group #8 to #4, = to pay another $150 to move - within the SAME class of section still - from Row #24 to Row #8, etc. etc. https://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/united-airlines-sacramento?userid=3mNz5nQFTIBQm0oU5mBR0w All to just make sure I could get my ass off of their plane, and take my ass to their NEXT plane which - because they are masochists - they put at a gate in another terminal practically as far away as they could make it. BANNER WEATHER DAY! No fault of the airline, but WHAT A DAY to travel from East-to-West or West-to-East! There was a storm front system in the Midwest that caused all of the transcontinental aircraft in the U.S. to shoot down to the Houston Traffic Control Area in order to get past the storm. https://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/united-airlines-sacramento?select=vlf1y8Nw-s0GHm1MZyg68A&userid=3mNz5nQFTIBQm0oU5mBR0w Our flight plan, per se was not one that would have been delayed due to weather directly, but it WAS delayed because of the increased TENFOLD traffic congestion caused by all the other flights hitting Houston. https://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/united-airlines-sacramento?select=vlf1y8Nw-s0GHm1MZyg68A&userid=3mNz5nQFTIBQm0oU5mBR0w Ce la vie. RETROSPECTIVE Upon some reflection, United IS a reflection of the entire flying industry (save Quantas and SouthWest), and although these are problems in the entire industry, United IS a leader in the industry and bears much responsibility for cheapening the metrics of quality air travel. "It's just lost that loving feeling...." THE LOWDOWN United Flights are such Inconvenient "Conveniences" when taken as a whole. But hey, TWO STARS - for 1. taking off in one piece and for 2. landing in one piece. And do I feel bad about leaving those TWO STARS? Hell no, cause if you check above, that's still above their OVERALL rating. *Zing!* read more

Got what I expected...on time, drink and a snack, no surprises. Thanks for getting me home for thanksgiving.

Thank you United airlines for always helping me in crazy situations and helping me to get to my destinations safely and on time. You guys are amazing and have always gone above and beyond for our family. When Crowdstrike had its avoidable disaster and a family member was stuck in Denver because all systems were not go, United stepped in and helped them get a hotel room. And when a family member purchased economy plus seating for another family member because even though they were a 1K member, they didn't know if you as a 1K member are flying with family members, those family members are able to receive economy plus seating without paying for the upgrade from economy seating, you informed us and you refunded us!! I don't know any Business who would do this!! Thank you for being honest and kind and decent!! Abdul in Houston is the Service member who helped me and I thank him from the bottom of my heart!! God bless! read more

Literally, the worst experience. I had a flight with a layover. The first part of the flight was canceled the week of departure. You have to rebook that portion.. There was some verbiage that they or you will rebook.. The flights available to make it to my layover to my connecting flight weren't feasible. I tried calling. The wait was typically over hours. To chat with an agent-- hours. I could open a chat at 11am and not get an agent until 730pm. When I finally spoke to someone and I explained my first leg of my trip was canceled.. the agent did not have that information. I said I received a text. The info on my app shows it canceled. I was never rebooked or told other than it was canceled. How does their agent not know this information? Further investigating on the agent's part, I am correct. I bought a non refundable ticket so I cannot be refunded. Even if they canceled the first leg of the flight? It's non refundable. If I did not hold my ground on this issue, I'd be assed out. If there is no reasonable flights to make a connecting flight to replace the one that was canceled on the company's side, why would you tell me I am not eligible for a refund? It doesn't feel good to have to complain. I would purchase a refundable ticket if it was possible to cancel on my part but when they cancel on you.. that's a different story. If they cancel, I should be able to get refunded. Ultimately, I got it.. but it took quite some time trying to speak with anyone and then convince that person I deserve a refund. read more

The check-in counter was easy to check in except for once you follow the computer screen prompts to check in it tells you to wait for it and send it, no one showed up. How are you to 10 or 15 minutes and still no one showed up so I just walked up to the counter and they did it there. So it seems like it wasn't even worth it using to check inFlight was great playing was nice and it has plug-in seats to keep your phone charged read more

We booked our honeymoon trip 4 months in advance & had our seats together but when we got to the airport, they moved us. Its not our fault that families didn't select their seats as they purchased their tickets or that families bought tickets knowing they didn't have seats together, I understand that families with small children need to stay together but why did you punish us? They family sitting next to me didn't even have small children, they had 3 teenage boys, you could have moved them but instead my new husband & I had to sit on 2 separate sides of the plane...ON OUR HONEYMOON!! To add insult to injury, we we're on a 5 1/2 hour flight & all they served was a wafer cookie the size of a quarter & a small drink. Really?? Fast forward to our arrival, like I said earlier, you sat my husband & me on separate sides of the plane so we had to exit 2 different sides of it so we started our honeymoon at our destination actually looking for each other in a strange airport. I am so angry & so unimpressed with your airlines! If I could give less than 1 star I would have read more

Flying on United last week, headed to continue more fireman training in Texas. Discovered my seat like this. Flight attendants didn't want to give me anything to wipe this mess up with. Made me wait for 20 minutes to get a wet paper towel. One I cleaned it up, it took another 20 minutes to take the dirty towel. Then when she had gloves on, she wouldn't take the towel from me. I was in the window seat and unable to get out, so I threw the towel in the aisle where it remained for another hour. I reported this inside the to United's website and have had very little contact. Flyers beware!!! #flyunited read more

So I am a United 1K who was used to flying out of a United Hub. I moved here from SF a few years back and I was not looking forward to flying out of a smaller non-hub airport. I should have written this review earlier, but I can tell you that I have not had a bad experience with United here at SMF. The staff are always friendly and very attentive. I have come to know many of the staff members who often greet me and remember me because of my constant travels. I typically get to the airport for the first morning flight. I tend to get to the airport around 3-3:30. The ticketing counter does not open up until about 3:45 - 4:00 AM. The lines to the ticketing counter are well laid out. There is a 1K/Polaris line, a Premier line, and a general line. When they open up in the morning, the lines seem to move pretty quickly. Not once, have I had a bad experience at the ticket counter. Moving through the airport after check-in, you go upstairs to the TSA security area. As is standard, there is the general TSA line, a pre-check line, a line for known crew members and airport employees, and a premium/first class line. After getting to the United gates, they have the lines laid out with the different boarding groups 1-5. As is customary, they call out the pre-board groups which consists of people who require assistance or extra time with boarding, active military personnel, Global Services, family with children 2 and under and then the boarding groups. It's a very smooth boarding process in my opinion. This week however, United instituted a new boarding process with the typical pre-boards and now 1K members are part of the pre-boarding. Group 1 includes Premier Platinum, Gold, and those seated in premium cabins. Group 2 includes Premier silver, United branded card members, and those who have purchased Premier Access or Priority Boarding. I flew out before the changes were instituted so I boarded with the old United process. I'll update the experience at SMF when I take my next business trip. The gate agents are the same agents that I often encounter at the ticketing counter so I always get the same level of friendliness and attention that I am accustomed to. Whenever I return, I usually check bags so I have to go to baggage claim. I'm sure most will agree that it can be a frustrating experience. It's kind of a hit or miss in terms of TTCB, Times to Claim Bags. If I fly in at a time when there are no other arrivals, I have gotten my bags in as fast as 10 minutes. Whenever my flight arrives with other flights, then it can become a lengthy wait. That is more a component of the airport infrastructure and not United itself. The only thing that I could ask for from United is a better notification system of which baggage claim my bags will be sent to. Often times, I wait at baggage claim 1 and then I have to pay attention to which carousel starts up and then I have to look at the monitor on top of the carousel. I wish that United would announce on the PA or even show on the arrivals board. I honestly have nothing bad to say about the United team and experience here at SMF. I have to say that the team here seems to be a lot friendlier and pay more attention to you as a customer than at a larger hub airport where you can get lost in the multitude of travelers. I love to fly out of SMF now and I am grateful for the positive experience every time I fly into and out of SMF. read more

Last time ever flying United. Fare was purchased thru work, no way to do anything other than basic economy. Then try to check in and it says I have to check in at a kiosk because I have no bag. Get to airport and attendant says I have to check my tiny carry on for $35. Pay the $35, get thru security, sit down, check boarding and find I'm in the middle when I reserved an aisle. If I could give no stars I would. Do better United. No wonder you will never ever take the top spot, ever again... read more

No issue getting in and out. Gate agents and check in counter were all very helpful and friendly. Only drawback was that they need a lounge in this location, particularly since it is a good option to fly direct into from the east coast instead of busy SFO. read more

when I arrived to the airport, I headed to the check in desk for United airlines. I was stopped by an United employee telling me I had to check in at the self checkout. I have an accommodation and flown several times with it so I knew I couldn't check in at the self checkout and explained my situation to her. she still insisted I check in at the self checkout and told me she would help me. after attempting for a while she still couldn't check me in at the self checkout like I told her so she told me to check in at the check in desk like I tried to in the first place. so she wasted a lot of my time holding me back for no reason. also after I checked in, I was told i had to wait around the check in area for awhile and couldn't go thru to my gate yet until they confirm my luggage read more

Horrible customer service at the kiosks. I choose not to check in any bags and thought my check-in experience at the kiosk would quick since all I needed was my ticket. Wrong! I put in all my information and the kiosk asks for a United Rep to scan their ID in order to verify that I have no carry-on bags. I waited five minutes, saw the United Reps help out many folks who did have luggage. When I saw no one was coming, I asked one of these Reps to help. She right away says "Go check in on a kiosk, then I can help". I told I was at kiosk. She said "Go to a kiosk where everyone else with check-in luggage is using". I told her I don't have any check-in or carry-on luggage; I only had my personal item. She ignored me at that point and helped out someone with their luggage. If you're checking in luggage, then maybe you'll get a better experience than me. After a few more minutes, I found another Rep. She basically gave me an attitude as if I was inconveniencing her. I was the easiest guest to help - I only needed my boarding pass **face palm** I haven't used United in decades and now I'm seeing that I haven't been missing out on anything. read more

Great job, United! There are some places in the nation where it just makes sense to fly United. Some of the smaller airports in the Northern United States only have 2-3 airlines to choose from. In my recent travels I picked United and hoped for the best. I was blown away by the amount exceptional service! I came home ready to make United my airline. Let me point out a few WOWs. My first flight from Sacramento to Denver. It was very easy to get in and off the plane. I had multiple choices for in flight entertainment (including a screen in front of me with Bluetooth capability). United is partners with TMOBILE which meant free WiFi for me. Denver to Bismarck was a smaller plane with great service. On my way home, United was able to put me on an earlier flight with no price increase. It was super easy to change my flight from the use of their app. Along the way they texted me gate changes and had great communication. Thank you United Airlines! read more

WORST AIRLINES AND CUSTOMER SERVICE.!!!! My wife bought two emergency tickets, I had sworn never to fly United again.

On my way back to Sacramento, I pressed the button for assistant. After 10 minutes, the assistant comes over and inquires who pressed the button. I kindly requested for water. because the airplane was super hot and I was getting headache. The flight attendant stated she'll give water when it's my turn. Anyways, that took additional 15 minutes. When it was my turn, then I requested water and juice which they served warm. I requested for ice and additional glass of water since I was dehydrated. The attended looked at me and said I just gave you water and juice. I showed him empty cups. He was shocked that I dranked both in less than a minute. Everyone in the plane were complaining it was utterly hot. And the attendant were serving everyone room temperature drinks. Recommendations: Please turn on AC in the plane and give water upon requests. Customers can die with dehydration up in the air. read more

Terrible airline, terrible customer support. You better hope there are ZERO complications to your planned flights or you will be dropped like a hot potato and ignored like a panhandler.

Cross your fingers you only need to book the tickets and all goes as planned or you're in for the worst airline of your life. read more

I am so tired of being nickel and dimed. I recently had a flight and my bag handle was busted on arrival. I didn't notice until after I picked up the bag from their bag claim office in Sacramento. I was sick, exhausted, and then had to dig out of a mountain of work. By the time I was able to call it was beyond their arbitrary 24 hour rule by a few days and they wouldn't give me any compensation at all for the broken bag. This, combined with constant delayed flights, I think I am just not going to fly United. I hope their company crashes or that maybe the workers take it over. These businesses ran to the ground by accountants and lawyers are so frustrating. My bag was on Flight 2468 to Denver and then Denver to Sacramento. I however was put on Flight 1870 to SF and then Sacramento because the original flight to Denver was delayed due to not having pilots.... But you already know United is not the best. read more

Update to prior review for United. Magically after my post they "found" the missing luggage. It was tagged to a non-existent Alaska Air flight. But they wouldn't give a delivery date or time. To be sure of getting the luggage they make you drive from Sacramento to SFO before midnight to have a chance of getting it before they put it in their delivery queue to be delivered at some future , unspecified date--with no guarantee it wouldn't be mysteriously lost again. But this experience is what I've come to expect from United. read more

This company has to be one of the most incompetent, unorganized and unprofessional that We've ever dealt with. (Actually, it's my husband having problems this time) He is traveling overseas. Looking at air fares, times, etc. united seemed to have the route that was more convenient. He booked his ticket, over 2 weeks ago. Paid for his additional bag ($100) and printed his information. He noticed something was not showing on the paperwork (pre-paid second bag), so he called to be sure that they had documentation that he paid. Big mistake!! While they pull up his confirmation number they did something that completely changed his flight, seat and destination. He didn't know this until he re-printed his new information that was supposed to show that he paid for his bag. He called back, this time, they canceled the whole third leg of his flight. Again, he doesn't see this until he checked online. Tomorrow is when he leaves for the airport. He is, as I am writing this review, once again on the phone with united trying to fix not only the baggage issue....again/still, once again, his ticket was cancelled (3rd time) for his last flight to his final destination. EVERY TIME he called something changed on his flight/ticket. I am not exaggerating when I say he's had to call at least 15X in the past week alone! Once he thought the issue was solved, he'd receive an email confirmation with the incorrect information. Our family flies quite frequently. Never have we ever had an issue with any of the other airlines. We will NEVER fly united again, and will warn friends, family and anyone else that this airline is sub-par at best. Their customer service is awful, they don't know how to do their jobs. It is obvious that their responses to questions are being read from some kind of training form. It will actually be a surprise and a miracle if my husband actually checks in his bags, and gets on the correct flights and both he and his luggage arrive at the correct airport. DO NOT FLY UNITED!!! Believe me, it's a major headache that can be avoided by choosing any other airlines read more

The worst airline ever. Flight got cancelled, No notifications no courtesy call. Booked the flight because it was direct. Now we have two connections. Waste of our time. Will never fly again. read more

Ah United Airlines. How nice is it to write reviews on our favorite airlines. For a good moment I actually stayed away from United because of the scandals that happened a few years back. Recently the airline has made great strides in improving customer service and passenger first attitudes. I fly in and out of the bay to visit family and normally fly from SFO or SMF. (San Francisco, Sacramento International) I love the connecting flights, especially the ones to SFO and LAX since I'm able to enjoy the United Club lounges there. I remember flying with Pan Am back in the day. There was that excitement with the jet age and flying was fun. Now since I fly with United, I feel that same excitement experience I felt back in the early 80's. Majority of the time the airline is on time and is located in terminal A with the other legacy carriers of the US. I can definitely say, I love the Star Alliance! read more

Horrible airline. Specifically took a simple flight from Sacramento to Los Angeles and let's see, flight was delayed, attendants were rude and arrogant, plane was dirty and smelled like feet. Actually scary that over head doors kept popping open and no baggage was even in them but the attendants could not get them fixed, what else is malfunctioning? Asked for bottled water got a cup of half way filled no ice Luke warm water. Bathroom literally had dried fecies and urine on toilet. Mirror looked like someone spit on it and no one cleaned it. I couldn't help but think this is the greyhound of air travel. Took luggage over an hour to get off loaded. Horrible airline I will NEVER use again. read more

United airlines check In is the slowest. It's slow to the point that it actually beats dmv. We have been waiting in check in line for an hour and we had literally 10 people ahead of us. That's why you should come to the airport 2 hours ahead because no one knows what might happen read more

I hate to pile on the already atrocious reputation of United Airlines, but there just isn't much positive to be said. You could blame much of it on the state of the airline industry as a whole, but United plays a part in that, and in my opinion they are one of the worst when it comes to offering a decent flying experience. Since this is a review of this particular United hub and not the airline, I'll say they are just the slightest bit better. The employees aren't as unusually grumpy as at some of the bigger hubs, the lines not quite as bad. But the good stops there. There is no lounge, the seating aboard the plane is tight, no meal offered, etc. Factor in extra time to get on and off the plane when following more busy routes. read more

I will never book another United Reservation again! If I could give them no stars ... I would. I purchased a no - refundable ticket and got it right before the flight that warranted surgery. I had my physician write a letter of explanation and was denied a refund. Outside of COVID-19, this would not be an issue. The email received said that illness is not considered a refundable scenerio. Only scenarios that involved them cancelling or inability to accommodate a cancellation would be the only way they would refund. Such poor customer service. Beware... don't get ill.. they are sharks.. and won't refund your money... I'm going to file a report with other reporting agencies ... read more

It was all good! Friendly staff, luggage got lost but not a big deal. Food was good but could used warmed up a bit more. Very responsible staff. Offered them a tip but they wouldn't accept it. Wish they had seats for those over 6' though. read more
