Flight lead was a gentleman with silver hair and he went out of his way to shake hands and interact with each passenger seated in business class. A medical emergency took place during our flight and he handled it with perfect poise and professionalism. He was gracious and confidently competent. Just what you want from a leader,
The flight was excellent, the crew was super friendly. The only complaint I have is, 3 of my zipper handles were broken and there were 2 massive scratches on the back of my bag
I did not use entertainment on board, so, cannot really evaluate. the flight was fine.
Outstanding even though the 330 was one of the oldest in the fleet. The difference was the attentiveness and responsiveness of a really experienced flight attendant. For airline food great variety of interesting choices and good tastes supported by a good wine selection.
As per usual when you Hit the UK it's a slow process through customs Not as efficient at Thailand for sure
The flight was delayed. The aircraft was unclean. Promised seat was not given due to change in Aircraft. Not one crew on ground was in a position to give any response. Amsterdam Airport is AVIODABLE Over crowded. Over Expensive. Poor Services.
Crew is not the cheerful type. very slow meal service (this is their style as have flown this many times)
Empty seats next to me - wish it had been for a longer flight!!
Flight was on time, staff are friendly and helpful onboard.
Terrible last row seats many seats available but no offer to move to better seat
Aircrew was very very supportive helpful funny and accommodating. The flight itself was very smooth the pilot was very informative and we were very comfortable with all of the accommodations and concessions that were given. Really liked the Hub in Dublin that allowed us to do US Customs before getting back into the US to eliminate extra hassle and Rush their staff was always accommodating and very informative with signage every step of the way
This was the worst experience I've ever had with an airline. For the first wing of our international flight, we were stood in a boarding line for an hour, which was taxing because I am disabled, and then my husband and I were split up, and I was placed at the front of the plane. A flight attendant took my bag from me, which contained much needed medicine, and placed it in the overhead compartment. Because I am disabled, I needed my medicine accessible, and without my husband to reach it for me, I was stranded. My husband had previously communicated this at the gate, and they moved his seat closer but still several rows away from me, and in a center seat where he couldn't easily get up and assist me. We would have even paid extra to select our seats and to sit together, but there was no option for this. Luckily another passenger gave up her seat so that I could be with my husband for assistance, but the flight was deeply uncomfortable due to the delay in my medication and the overall conditions of the plane. For the second wing of our flight, we had the same lengthy boarding line, and somehow my husband and I ended up in adjoining center seats, which were exceptionally uncomfortable. Additionally, my husband is 6'5'' and we were both placed in broken seats - mine was stuck in a reclined position, and my husbands was stuck in a cramped upright position, with our shared armrest being broken as well. Much of the front of the plane was completely empty, and another passenger had been moved up on request, but when I requested that we be moved up to empty seats, the flight attendant I spoke with declined, leaving us in broken seats and extreme physical discomfort for the duration of a transatlantic flight. Other services throughout the flight were spotty, including simple food and beverage service and trash pickup. Flight attendants routinely forgot my husband and I and only offered items to folks on the aisle seats, and when I requested water on one occasion (to take with my medicine) I was ignored. At the end of our flight, I was barked at by a flight attendant to put my seat back up - enraging because I couldn't as my chair was broken, and because my earlier request for an unbroken seat was ignored! If my seat needed to be up for safety reasons, then Aer Lingus' staff placed me at risk by refusing to move me to a seat where this was possible. It took us several days to recover from the physical strain of this trip - not at all what we had hoped, coming back from our honeymoon. Overall, this was a deeply unpleasant experience and my husband and I will be avoiding Aer Lingus as well as encouraging all of our friends and family to avoid Aer Lingus as well
Absolutely the worst at baggage handling. Our baggage still has not been delivered. They couldn't find it in Dublin then when we got to Edinburgh they said the 2 bags were sitting in Dublin. After spending an hour filling out forms at the counter. We left for our hotel, bags arrived in Edinburgh at 505pm using my satellite tracker. Tried calling the numbers provided, no answer to their 24/7 service. Next morning the bags are still sitting at airport, no movement. Called different number provided by hotel in Sterling, the said it's souly the responsibility of the courier service now and they couldn't help. Completely ruined our travel plans, we must find clothes to purchase today instead of going to the museums we had purchased tickets for. This loss is costing us thousands in already paid hotels and services. No one takes any responsibility. I'll be contacting legal services on our return. We will never forget and I'll be a social advocate to avoid using this service.
Boarding was efficient. What could have been better would have been the physical boarding process, which required going down stairs, or riding a shuttle to/from the plane.
Despite me ordering a gluten-free meal, they had nothing on board. If you have health restrictions, be careful! Otherwise just fine.
It all went very well, except for the ramp coordination upon landing in Boston. That, however, was resolved in fairly short order.
My experience with Aer Lingus was not too good. First, because of the last minute delayed flight from Amsterdam to Dublin we almost missed our flight from Dublin to Philadelphia. Secondly, the flight from Dublin to Philadelphia had very uncomfortable seats especially it was a very long flight. My buttocks were constantly in pain for sitting on these seats for this long. Lastly, the service in the plane was also slow. I asked for a second cup of water and the hostess told me he'll be right back with that where it took him over an hour to come back with water. It was warm in the plane and I was very thirsty. Overall this airline needs much improvement in their services.
This flight left about 45 minutes late, and arrived about 45 minutes late, which was enough to make us miss our next flight and trap us in Dublin for 24 hours!!
Delayed due to weather... fine. But then the board us. Rows 15 and back had to go down the stairs and back up the back stair entrance to the plane. No assistance offered. Then they inform us that we are delayed for paperwork for an hour. So why did we board? Then, about 45min later they inform us that it'll be another 60-90mins. Really? No wifi, no seat entertainment, no drink or snacks offered. And we were not allowed to deboard.
It was cold the whole flight. Luckily had Ski-Jacket with hoodie. The food was just boiled macaroni in 'ketchup'. Better bring your own BigMac. Assisted Boarding was SUPERB!
Had no disruptions or delays. Did not order any food.
I liked almost everything (e.g. ease of booking, price, punctuality, efficiency, friendliness, courtesy). A slam landing in Dublin airport took some of the gloss off it, though. Being able to paste here the text of the review of the same flight that I just wrote for Ryanair would make me feel better about Kayak too.
Take off was great but landing is always with a bump.
Staff were very professional. Much better than the outgoing flight from Dublin. Seat cushions were practically non existent. Making for a very uncomfortable flight.
They were extremely unprofessional and unhelpful at check in. They did not understand laws related to Spanish residents flying with family It was very discriminatory the way we were treated.
It's not the staff's fault. The cabin crew do their best but the setup in Stansted Airport by Ryanair is poor. The herding of people like cattle is unacceptable before boarding and is something that's in every airport but only in Stansted have I seen the queueing of passengers outside the plane on the tarmac and the crew only turning up with maybe 5 minutes to depart. This is a resource issue . Yes prices are good but seemingly comes with a price of poor treatment of customers. I'll pay more next time
Flight was fine, crew were good, cabin director spoke far too much; disembarking at Dublin Airport and entry into the terminal building was just dreadful, like entering the back door of a neglected factory building. What an awful impression it must give to first time visitors to Ireland.
all fine - did not have food - there was no entertainment
Delayed delayed delayed and then cancelled very late not allowing for too much time to find a room for the night
Worst experience ever. First time and last time with Ryanair. I'm not a cow.
