Have your passport ready; it’s requested multiple times! The Rome airport is enormous- not easy to get help answering questions on where to go and how to get to security and gate for boarding. AerLingus at Rome airport is actually on offsite part of terminal. We walked forever to get to our gate “E” then we were put on a bus to shuttle us to where the plane was. Again, more walking- if you have a lot of carry on with you or can’t walk so far it’s a challenge. They need to advise trailers at check in to get to their gate Early to allow for all the extra walking and shuttle time needed.

The flight boarding at Dublin Airport was a negative experience. Another passenger admonished me for cutting in the "B" group line, so further direction on how to proceed in the queue would have been helpful for travellers who are not familiar with Irish airport protocol.

Bring snacks. Double check with the airline that everything is in order. Never go through large airports like Heathrow with any layover that’s less than 3 hours. Small airports are preferred for layover like Dublin or Brussels.

Dublin airport was great for an American due to the American TSA 'precheck' area so we did not have to go through customs in America. Problem though: I wanted to see shops and restaurants in Dublin. An attendent told me there were shops and restaurants after USA Precheck but there really were not. there was ONE overcrowded restaurant with very few food options and there was a duty free shop and that was it. There should be signage allowing people to choose to go to the main airport before doing the USA Precheck and being stuck in this place with few amenities.

Heathrow seems to have a lot of plane traffic so make sure you have a good cushion of time if you have connecting flights. I had a 2 hour layover but ended up having to run to make sure I got to the other gate in time.

Make sure you have enough time on your connection because even though the gate agent in Naples assumed we would not clear customs in Dublin and we would just go gate to gate because we are on Air Lingus the whole way and we would clear customs in Los Angeles, but no, that was not the case we had an hour and 15 minutes and barely made it because it was a long walk off the jet way on a bus to the terminal a long walk until we got to immigration so they did put us through customs in Dublin and then we did not go through customs in Los Angeles.

Baggage checking was very slow over 30min with not a massive queue. Gate was very late to be announced and priority boarding with young child was overlooked due priority boarding queue being so long. Airport is nice with great amenities and facilities in the terminal, but long walks to gates if travelling with a young family.

I think I previously submitted my feedback about flight lead Katherine in a different field by mistake. Please see those comments. Comments for Hyd to AMS are it was good. The flight lead and service met expectations for satisfactory high quality service but the flight lead did not stand out as exceptional as did the leads on the other two flights so I don’t remember anything specific one way or the other besides the fact I was satisfied.

The flight lead and service met expectations for satisfactory high quality service but the flight lead did not stand out as exceptional as did the leads on the other two flights so I don’t remember anything specific one way or the other besides the fact I was satisfied.

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,

It was really nice journey i personally recommend klm flight

The crew were unprofessional with a racist element. I was physically abused as well from one of the crew members

I appreciate that KLM was proactive in informing me of the 2 hour delay which enabled me to replan my travel. It was a bit stressful not knowing whether my connection from Montreal to Ottawa was happening. But the ground and air crew did a good job at comforting and assuring me.

This portion of the flight was through Indigo. A local carrier. So all economy seating. No real service some refreshments for purchase standard economy stuff.

This fight left ahead of time which meant it arrived early which was great. Staff were very professional, but as with all these Short hop Flights the food was a disappointing snack There was no entertainment on this flight, but I did not expect any

The food & entertainment really stood out in terms of quality. The nasi goreng & chicken satay were absolutely delicious. It’s great that KLM feature international cuisine.

Seats were comfortable crew members support was very good but AVML ordered or selected by us needs a lot of improvement.

Flight left a few minutes late, but that's it. I wish the seats could be wider and recline more.

This was an absolutely exceptional flight. The flight attendants were extremely attentive and very friendly. They seemed to go out of their way to make us comfortable and to make sure that we had everything we needed., We were in business and were very happy with the size and the details for our pods. We would definitely recommend Finnair and will definitely be flying with them again.

Crew very lovely. Arrived an hour late due to bad weather. We were given new tickets to an other flight but it could have been organised better, so we did not have to run through the whole airport to.

Do not use KAYAK or Finair for future travel. Unless you purchase the tickets directly from the airline, you were going to have a difficult time checking in. Kayak canceled my flights twice and ended up causing great difficulty in me getting back from Europe because they double sold my tickets between American Airlines and Finair. The event caused significant delays and led to me having to rebook my flights.

Crew were professional and responsive. Food was mediocre and breakfast could do with revampinmg

Our previous flight was delayed but they waited for us to board.

It was a pleasure definitely going with Iberia on my future travels

The wine was low quality Finnair label stuff in small bottles and only one small bottle each. Embarassinng. A competing airline served me two generous glasses of a nice South African Shiraz from regular wine bottles, a Beck's beer, and a generous Dewar's White Label on the rocks. Cabin service was good and polite, plane interior was beautiful, but cramped.

Flight ok, but me and other two passengers didn’t have connection with the entertainment in our seats. So, no movies, no games, no music… for 9 hours. The crew just told us that there’s nothing they can do but I noticed during the flight that there were empty seats, so they could have offered to us to change seats. Customer service could be better.

Boarding was a shambles, with no proper line or queue and multiple groups joining at the same time. Overhead space was limited. Seat spacing (width) is not generous. My neighbour was invading my space, before he even spilt his drinks over me (twice!) as he struggled to contain his meal on the table. The main meal was very poor. Choice was simply chicken / turkey - the crew didn't know exactly which - or vegetarian. The chicken meal was really poor quality - uninspiring and tasteless; and very little offering of drinks. Half the crew were friendly, half really need to cheer up.

Check in was awful. Missed our flight because we waited to check our bags for over an hour. Only one or two agents available. Plan on 3+ hours if you fly out of Madrid. Won't use this airline again.

Awful customer service. What you are told 100% depends on who you talk to.

Baggage handling was poor. Baggage was delayed. Communicating updates on finding and delivering the baggage was poor.

I love flying with them, the long-haul was fantastic. The short flight from Dublin --> Switzerland was horrible though. Most narrow seats I ever had, first and only time in my life I couldn't even close the seatbelt in seat 1A which was very embarrassing so I had to sit in the middle, because that seatbeld was 20cm longer. No idea why seat 1A would have a much shorter belt, it's just ridicilous. Also I hate the fixed seats, way too narrow.

Despite me ordering a gluten-free meal, they had nothing on board. If you have health restrictions, be careful! Otherwise just fine.

The first flight was delayed and left us with a tight connection from Dublin to LAX. We would have made it and only had carry on luggage, however we were turned away and not allowed to go to the gate because they gave our seats away!

I was not permitted to check in online and there was no one at the check in desk at FCO when I arrived, so I could not get to my flight. Did not receive compensation of any kind.

Boarding was messy and the flight was delayed an hour

Food was mediocre, but as expected in economy class on an airline. Wrap was ice cold , my son’s served by a steward on the next aisle was warm . As expected, but at least heat the food up a bit. No frills, but it’s economy. Excellent free WiFi was a bonus

The overall sports experience wasn’t even OK. The fact I canceled when I was on my way to get food at the airport again this was a international flight. I was out of the country and I did have work the next day. It was very inconvenience and very last minute and it was very poorly communicated.

Informed of delay the day of flight resulted in us getting to our destination hours later. Had we been notified earlier plans could have been rearranged. No airline employee could tell us why there was such a delay. Smells of trying to hide the real reason Food was not offered to us. Stewardess walked right passed us offering others drinks and food. I thought on a short flight maybe they paid for it so I didn’t ask. Turns out they should have offered us something Seats were very hard and uncomfortable

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.

I really like to fly with Lufthansa. It is comfortable and reliable. The crew are polite and sensitive

The crew was very nice. The equipment on the 747 felt old.

very small seats the scree did not work. I could not watch anything for 9 hours.

Business class was roomy and comfortable however, the entertainment screen was very dark and hard to see.

I like the service and the efficiency. I am lactose intolerant and the lactose intolerant meal in business class was not astounding. Also, the business class fully reclining seats are not that comfortable.

Overall excellent service and Frankfurt Airport was very efficient and clean

The flight was cold, no enough blanket and the crew said that they can’t change it. I got very sick in the flight . Most of the kids were coughing.

Terrible experience. I was stuck in Germany for two full day because your flights can't leave on time. You guys suck!!!

plane was late. flight was very bumpy most of the way

Liked: Video entertainment options were generally good (sufficient choice of good, recent films). Could Have Been Better: 1. Both the SFO-Frankfurt and Frankfurt-Milan flights were significantly delayed. 2. Dinner was ok, although included no choice other than pasta (no meat). Quality of breakfast seemed very below average (just an unpalatable, bread-heavy vegetarian sandwich that many passengers seemed to discard after only a bite or two) 3. Crew performed their duties perfunctorily, but seemed a little stiff/impersonal. 4. Space between seat and seatback of the passenger in front a bit cramped.
