As always, it’s a pleasure to travel with KLM. It is one of my favorite airlines.
It was really nice journey i personally recommend klm flight
Crew is not the cheerful type. very slow meal service (this is their style as have flown this many times)
Couldn’t get boarding pass in SLC even with help from a redcoat, so had to find a desk in AMS to get boarding pass. Technical problems so not sure why. Very inconvenient. The KLM app is not as user friendly as most apps. Also had to wait almost an hour on the tarmac for a fuel truck, which caused us to miss a connecting bus in LUX.
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.
The flight was again delayed for more then 2 hours with some lousy explanation regarding the reason of the delay. Although the flight was delayed for more than 2 hours, no refreshments were offered (according to EU regulations). Last 4 flights on KLM - always at least 2 hrs late. So be prepared that you cannot plan anything with KLM.
Booked connecting flights with KlM. My serving flight was the furthest part of the airport. On arrival in Zurich. My two cases arrived but only one carry on belong to my son. His three suitcase didn't arrive. After enquiring we discovered they were still in Amsterdam. We landed at 11.12. We eventually left the airport just after one.
It was nice to be on a legacy airline, people try at least.
one of my bags was drenched with fish smelling water and all my new clothes bought at dublin and the 23kg checked in bag were all gone waste with very pungent fish smell and also having stains
Seats actually fit a human! Snack options were a bit lame but that’s ok
Thank you! Our flight was amazing! Short layover turned to be not just doable, it was so sufficient, fast, clear! Helpful informative boards and incredibly professional kind people in Zurich assisted in every step! I’m ver grateful to everyone there! 🙂🙏
The space is getting smaller and smaller … and I know Swiss cares about people. Why not be countercultural and make people with normal amounts of money feel cared for? That much more space or recline would make a big difference.. just a way for people to feel invested in versus having to forgo all comfort just because it is simply not financially feasible to cash out for more leg room and this and that? You would have even more people book with you and instead of having people fly like sardines you could fly a whole other plane? Innovation is Swiss! So be Swiss and come up with a revolutionary way to have “common people” fly extraordinarily;)
First flight was delayed slightly, immediately went to the desk to ask if we would make our connecting flight we were told ‘absolutely no problem’. Flight was delayed again. We went back up and they said ‘it might be tight, but you should be fine. We’ll move to seats closer to the front of the plane’ so we lost our window and aisle seat and were moved to middle seats. As we were getting ready to land the flight attendant let us know that they have already rebooked us on a new flight, even though we may have been able to make our original flight when we landed. We went to the desk and were told that our flight was the following day. The staff told us that they could send us to Frankfurt first and then from Frankfurt to Boston and we could either do that that night or tomorrow. We chose to go to Frankfurt same day. We were told that we would be able to collect our bags in Frankfurt that was incorrect. We were given a hotel but had no clothes, no toiletries, nothing as we were not able to get our bags and we were required to check even our carry ons. Overall bad expedited and Swiss pushed us off on to Lufansia air who is unable to offer us any credits or upgrades. Extremely frustrating and do not plan to fly with Swiss in the future.
the glutenfree food was not more than ok. oatmel is not considererd 100% glutenfree, which you served me. I would expect a better meal
Everything about Swiss was perfect . I found the business practice of kayak to be shady. We were turned over to an online travel agent called Aran Grant. We paid extra for economy comfort seats on our transatlantic flights including picking the exact seats we wanted. Upon check in 24 hours before departure we were assigned different seats . When contacting Aran Grant they were very pleasant and professional with the only problem being they could not help us. We had to each time arrive at the airport four hours early to get assistance from Swiss .check in agent. Both times they were very helpful and accommodating. . The moral of the story is we were left to fend for ourselves. Kayak and its agent AranGeant leave slot to be desired .
I took a long time to start boarding past the announced boarding time. It was the replacement flight for the flight we were supposed to take the previous day. That one was cancelled because not enough airplanes were planned to be in operation. I don't like that you have to pay extra for food and luggage.
This leg of the trip was ok, though the check in agent could have given us assigned seats. I have a feeling though that agent could not as it became clear later on. Please see below. However, the leg from Zurich to San Francisco was horrendous. We only had less than 1.5 hours to transfer to a different gate using transfer train. We asked at the business lounge and were told to see the gate agent. When we went there there was a long line. As we approached business class desk, we were yelled at and the agent said "I will not talk to you". After a long wait, we were then told our seats will be assigned at the boarding time!!! After a time, the agent announced for volunteers as the business class was overbooked. We did get seats in the end but were separated at which point, we just decided it was not worth trying to ask for seats. I am not sure I will ever use Arrant Grant. I understand the Arrant Grant need to charge commission. However, what Lufthansa charged $10315.80 Canadian dollars ($7316.17 US dollars) was so much less than $12670.80 Arrant Grant charged me. I think commission of $5354,53 US dollars is too excessive. Also, I tried to upgrade to First Class and was told that we had upgraded once already and couldn't upgrade again. So, a terrible experience.
As a European regional carrier partner of Swiss Air/Luftansa, Helvetic did a great job.
Food too spicy. Very late boarding. Premium Econ seat did not recline.
Flight was late and crew were unwilling to help with information on connections. Call light had been on for 61 minutes without tesponse.
Check in wasn’t the best since i had to go to additional security check. Waste of your and my time but i do understand. Worst part of the journey was broken seat, it was hard to sit on it for 7 hours. Someone need to check on cushions and replace them as i felt i was sitting on metal rod all the way. Food and entertainment was solid and crew was good.
Seats are very close together, little or no leg room. As a result it is difficult to move so your backside gets numb and sore
The staff on the flight were utterly brilliant; there was a young man who was particularly exceptional. Boarding was quick and seamless, and service was great! Seats were fab, as was the entertainment and its ease of access
i’m The staff on my flight were amazing as always, beautiful professional staff, they do amazing job. the food ? room for improvement
The agents at the boarding desk were not very helpful, however the hostesses on board the flight were great, the food was ok, and there were lots for choices for entertainment. I was stuck in an middle row seat which was a pain on a full flight, but otherwise the flight was great.
The man in front of me reclined the entire flight, including during meals, which was aggravating. My screen had issues with brightness and kept flickering in and out.
Still some confusion about my baggage which was disconcerting. It was nice that there was extra space on the flight for comfort reasons. Staff very friendly
Everything was smooth and the meal was delicious. I really appreciated that Aer Lingus still offers complimentary beverages, food, luggage and headphones. It was nice that the main meal also featured some items typical to Ireland including the wheaten bread and Kerrygold butter. I generally found the flight a quite relaxing and enjoyable experience.
The seats are so close that you have 0 room to move. Not acceptable for an 11 hour flight.
Most narrow seat of my life. Easyjet has larger seats. And as I just wrote in the last comment section - Seat 1A promises luxury after a great businessflight. Instead, it's narrow, the seatbelt is 20cm shorter than the one in 1B, it's just a joke.
