Cons: "Old plane, walking distance to board the plane is so far"
Pros: "Amazing in business class"
Pros: "Cabin crew services very friendly"
Cons: "Mediocre food, old movie list mostly. The biggest complain is both duiring the CGK T3 international outbound and inbound flight makes you walk the whole length of t3 from the departure gate as the plane for this international flight was parked at the most corner part of domestic terminal. No travellator, no buggy. Terrible for the elders.and bi assistance can be seen"
Pros: "As above"
Cons: "Nothing"
Pros: "Flight was normal. Nothing special. Flight wad on time."
Cons: "Boarding didn't commence as started"
Pros: "The female air crews. Indonesian female air stewardess are simply beautiful and shapely!"

Pros: "Probably the best food I’ve had on a business class flight."
Cons: "Entertainment just OK. Garuda lounge in Bali dire"
Cons: "Garuda played loud “music” on arrival so we couldn’t watch the entertainment system. Getting onto the flight was horrid with long long long wait on the bus to go from terminal to airplane. Food was ultra salty and dreadful."
Pros: "Clean, proper plane."
Cons: "Unhealthy food, full of sugars and fat."
Pros: "Smooth flight on time including lunch service. Good entertainment system. Friendly attentive crew."
Cons: "Low quality food. On arrival in Bali walked a long way inside terminal down corridors and up-down stairs without anyone guiding disembarking passengers and without signs guiding us. We even passed other passengers in the halls boarding their flights. So disorganized!"

Cons: "I'm a bit get bored with the food."
Pros: "The flight crew was amazing, as always. Boarding was fast and simple. And the flight wasn't packed so there was plenty of room."

Cons: "Jakarta Terminal 3 directions are not properly set up. Confusing"
Pros: "Great experience, friendly staff, great food. (I travelled business class)."
Cons: "Boarding started late. Needed to wait quite some time in the corridor, without further explanation. Likely because of a rain leakage, but there was staff, who could have explained it."
Cons: "Boarding staff don’t have a clue. They are there for the airline not to help the traveler. Problem is they are the only carrier in the area. That being said.... they are better than Lion Air but that is not saying much. No real choice...."
Pros: "Absolutely nothing - your Arline’s cancelled our flight and could got us out in 1 instead of 3 days late. You even tried charge a change fee or $ 800 more for business class Tix to depart earlier!"
Cons: "see message above"
Pros: "Other Airlines that sent extra planes to evacuate their patrons!"
Cons: "Garuda canceling my flight from Bali to Singapore and not rescheduling it for 3 days despite the Airport reopening the next day after a short closure for Volcanic Actvity"
Cons: "Waited for over an hour for the last bags to be loaded to the baggage carousel at LAX, only to find out that a CZ employee standing two feet away from me had a sheet of paper with the owner names of four pieces of luggage known to be "stuck" in China. Bah humbug!"
Cons: "....the food a little bland - but the constant bringing of refreshments and food made up for this .....overall - great work !!"

Cons: "Nothing much."
Pros: "Staff, food, seats."

Pros: "Flight was good, easy to board, friendly service, reasonably comfortable. On time."
Cons: "Having to change my ticket was a nightmare. I had to call Garuda in the U.S. and after 45 minutes, was told I had to call Indonesia who took another 45 minutes to process the change. All of this cost time and money, not only for the ticket change but for the calls."
Pros: "Poor selection an d or updated often enough!"
Pros: "Nothing"
Cons: "Staffs separate seat from parent and kids. Crazy."
Pros: "We were warmly greeted and quickly checked in ...very efficient. The plane even left a bit early...don't be late!"
Pros: "the food was good, but the use of SO much plastic is horrible."
Cons: "the plastic used for the food. Super wasteful, cheap and flimsy! Indonesia (in general) needs to step up their game on protecting the planet and not destroying it. Set an example, especially since you are offering flights to Raja Ampat. One flight attended (name started with KOR...) was not friendly and helpful at all. I asked if could safely store some fragile items and she said put it in the overhead bin. I said it would get destroyed and she just stopped the conversation and asked me to go to my seat. That is not helpful, nor is that good customer service."
Pros: "Orderly, on time, efficient boarding"
Cons: "The meal"
Pros: "Pretty on time"
Cons: "The food is bad"
Pros: "Cabin was in good size, crew was friendly and professional, in flight entertainment was top notch."
Cons: "Boarding was late. When we got to Soekarno Hatta, it took a while before they could open the door of the plane and let everyone out because they were waiting for some equipment (the stairs i'm guessing). Then they put us in a bus which took a loooong time to get to the right terminal. I was sick at that time so this was very inconvenient."
Cons: "Jet Airways (partner company on flight) waited 5 days before putting my lost bag through customs on arrival in India and made me wait 3 hours, after the 5 days, to receive it. They gave no explanation, no apology, and actually sent an employee from another company to deliver my bag after I had waited that long."
Pros: "Service onboard as usual was excellent"
Cons: "Late arrival of the aircraft resulted in 40 minutes delay of our departure time."
Pros: "Professional Crew and Excellent Customer Service"
Cons: "One hour delay"
Pros: "Professional and Excellent Customer Service"
Everything spoken was in Malay only
Excellent value for a budget airline
Cheap flight, on time, great staff. Great budget airline.
New planes, competent pilots, friendly staff.
Layout and space in emergency exit row.
The worst kind of budget airline. To be honest....the plane was not that bad. Would have been good to have some food choices and some water. What was by far the worse is the passengers/customers that this airline attracts. Coughing and spluttering all over one another with no masks. Just disgusting. Pay for a better carrier and get a better class of passenger.
Cons: "More food variety"
Pros: "A nice experience overall. Flight was quiet so plenty of personal space."
Pros: "Everything went smoothly from check in to arrival. Bags were delivered timely. Flights were on time."
Cons: "No entertainment options. Little to no food service."
Pros: "The crew are ok. They should find jobs with other, better airlines."
Cons: "Flight delayed on both legs. Delay management horrible, call centre was worse."
Pros: "Average flight"
Cons: "Changed the time of my flight early by more than 2 hours, with no communication. I therefore missed the flight. I was informed there was a flight that evening but they refused to move me as I had booked through an agent. Waited more than 6 hoursnin the airport for next flight and was offered only a meal voucher worth £4. Later flight was delayed, resulting in me missing my friends pre wedding henna party and arriving more than 8 hours late. Not a single apology given!"
Pros: "Except for a 1-hour delay, overall the flight was good, smooth and enjoyable. Loved the inflight meal. For the price we paid we got meal and 30kg baggage allowance, we thought that was just value for money. And they departed from KLIA and not klia2 which is more convenient."
Cons: "Flight wasn't on time to and from HKG."
Pros: "The staff were very kind, the seat had a great amount of leg room."
Cons: "There was no alcohol on the flight."
Pros: "Getting out of the plane"
Cons: "getting in the plane. No working tablet. Poor food."
Pros: "For the price that we paid, it included 30kg baggage and refreshment (orange juice, water, coffee, a slice of pizza and a muffin) - it was worth it. The legroom is spacious, the seat was comfortable and the cabin crew was awesome. Flight was on time, check in was acceptable (considering people travelling from Bandung has a lot of check in baggage due to shopping)."
Cons: "Nothing."
Pros: "The service is good in general."
Cons: "The boarding process could be improved."
Pros: "The 32" pitch giving more leg space, better than MAS and AirAsia on that count. Good baggage allowance."

Cons: "No in flight entertainment (movies)"
Pros: "The seats are more comfortable compared to the other budget airlines."

Pros: "I have flown Malindo before and I have been happy about tbeir customer service."
Pros: "In flight meal."
Cons: "Got told luggage would go straight to bali from origin in Nepal. Waited at baggage check in jarkata just in case. Sure enough, our baggage comes out. Transfer to domestic terminal was almost impossible since we were given no information and our flight number changed completely. All of a sudden it was batik air not malindo, which has a completey different terminal. Will not be travelling with malindo again."
Pros: "Check in and boarding we're both quick and easy. There were unsold exit row seats on our flight and the flight attendants lets us change seats. The in flight meals were quite tasty."
Cons: "The beverage options were limited and mostly consisted of different flavors of fruit soda. The flight attendants sprayed the cabin with a strange aerosol before landing. Trash was not collected during the flight."

Cons: "Delayed"
Cons: "Cabin very hot. Aircond broken??"
Pros: "Horrible, tv not working. I asked for no vegan and they forgot to bring my food. After I mentioned, they finally brought and was vegan! Plane very unconfortable and old. Totally different than the connection place that was way less time on air."

Cons: "Evrything"
Pros: "Good legroom and friendly crew"

Pros: "Every thing in the flight was excellent."
Cons: "Except at the airport service at Kuala Lumpur.You have to make sure to announce , when you change the gate."
Pros: "Boarding process was great, who went in first just as supposed to be so minimizing crowded in the cabin alley."
Cons: "No on-flight meal available to purchase. It's lunch time and the airline expected everyone had lunch before?!? 15 minute delay, understandable. Seat pocket was not cleaned, someone spilled chocolate drink before and the cleaning service missed to do the job."
Instead of the flight attendants talking to each other they should have been monitoring the passengers. The person beside me took a phone call literally 30 seconds before the plane landed. As we were going down the runway ( from landing ) a person in the row in front of me and behind me made phone calls; CRAZY
Pros: "The crew was excellent, especially the stewardesses."
Cons: "Their wifi service is ridiculously expensive $32 and it doesn't work."
Pros: "Nothing"
Cons: "No delays"
Pros: "The leg room"
Cons: "Boarding process"

Cons: "Seats are very tight if you are over 5’6"
Pros: "Crew were good"
Cons: "Flight was late."
Cons: "Flight with Scoot are not very well organized. for as large a fleet and number of flight locally should be better. no onboard entertainment nor refreshments. Staff not very personable either."
Pros: "GREAT CREW AS ALWAYS THE SEAT WAS COMFORTABLE AS ALWAYS."
Cons: "FOOD WAS ORDINARY NOT WHAT I ORDERED, MY NEIGHBOR IN THE CHAIR OPPOSITE HAD WHAT I WANTED AND IT LOOKED DELICIOUS"
Pros: "Friendly crew. Toilets kept clean. Nice ambience with the cabin lighting."

Cons: "Overpriced drinks and snacks"
Pros: "Extremely rude."

Pros: "Clean"
Cons: "I am not sure why they were delayed."
Pros: "The Business Class bed was nice"
Cons: "The whole experience was terrible. Scoot decided to - delay flight by 45 minutes without telling me. I discovered this by checking myself - chartered a Singapore Airlines Boeing 777-200 and then reduced then quality of every Business Class service (no entertainment system videos or music, no alcohol or soft drinks - only water, only Economy class food. There was no apology from Scoot (who are a subsidiary of Singapore Airlines) and none from Singapore Airlines. There was no suggestion of any refunds or other compensation. Truly a disgrace. I will never fly on either Singapore Airlines or Scoot airline again. I am seeking further compensation through Australian Fair Trading and through Class Action Lawyers (as this impacted every passenger on this flight, not just Business Class)"
Cons: "You can choose your seat but when you pay you can choose a seat and I don’t like this"
Pros: "There is nothing to say this is a no frills airline and that is what you get. Departure was on time and arrival was also on time. Food on any airline isn’t good at least on airline i fly. The important thing is getting there safely and this airline company does that."
Pros: "It was a good flight"
Cons: "The long delay......"
Pros: "Organised well. Clean plane. Excellnt comms from pilot and staff presented well."
Cons: "Could not recline chair"
Pros: "Overall it was a good flight."
Cons: "No offer to book my seat assignment during the booking process. A kiosk check-in would be a nice addition."
Pros: "The Staff were friendly and efficient, considering the flight time being very short. The Flight Crew got us to our destination 10 mins ahead of schedule, considering also that we were 15 mins behind sitting on the runway for take off, which in effect meant they made up 25 mins. Fantastic job. The Aircraft was clean and well maintained. The seats were comfortable in economy for me, but unfortunately my Husband being a larger tall man was cramped and didn’t have a lot of room to move."
Cons: "As the flight was very short the choice of food was limited and the selection was not good, as the choice I required ran out at the first two rows, which were not occupied by many passengers at all. A very light passenger load. The pricing was a little high for the snacks and tiny bottles of water."
Cons: "I didn't realise I was going to be in such a poor airline after booking through the Singapore Airlines website. There was hardly any space, food options were limited, there was no entertainment, they even charged for water! Equal worst airline with jetstar"
Pros: "boarding is thru gate and not tarmac"
Cons: "food are expensive."
Pros: "on time and departed early"
Cons: "none. is budget airline"
Pros: "great check in staff fast boarding comfortable temperature in cabin very good crew"
Cons: "n/a"
Cons: "The flight was delayed for over 30 mins."
Pros: "Nice aircraft, on time departure and arrival"
Cons: "reclining seats only in business class, not lay flat. pay for everything except the bathroom"
Pros: "Nothing"
Cons: "Flight crew’s attitude. The fact that there was no overhead space and the crew didn’t Check additional bags. Had to stove the bags u def the seat and there was no room to stretch my legs. The flight crew had the most pathetic attitude and was rude beyond imagination."
Pros: "Singapore to Hanoi flight."
Cons: "Boarding is thru T2 airport bus which brings all passengers to Flyskoot plane parked somewhere. Not good for those with strollers. Will avoid Flyskoot if going to Hanoi."
Cons: "We were given just one very small water about 150ml and told we have to pay if we need more water. Restriction on providing drinking water in Business class seems unfair. Please reconsider"
Pros: "i did not see any entertainment."
Cons: "The process to check and pay for a bag at the airport was ridiculous. We waited in line to check the bag, found out that since we hadn't paid for it ahead of time, we could get the bag checked but would need to go stand in a new line to pay for it and could not have the bag tag until this was done. Then the new line only had one agent working all of the people who needed to pay for their bags. When we got to the front, we were asked to pay the bag fee with a credit card and the processing fee in cash. Since we were only connecting in Singapore, of course we did not have cash. She could not process the charge, walked us over to a new desk and a new line where they processed the bag charge without the cash fee (how this wasn't done initially, I have no idea) and finally, we were finished with the check in process an hour later."
Cons: "Temperature in cabin too warm on outgoing flight"
Pros: "Being a budget airline, you really get what you pay for. Seats do not recline. Minimum legroom. I was thankful that it was only a 1-hour flight"
Cons: "Stiff, uncomfortable seats without controls. Just adequate legroom for a 5’3” person"
Cons: "It was moving a lot!!! :\"
Pros: "check in - fast via machine. boarding - organized. crew helped out with baggage. flight - took off on time after short taxi and landed early"
Cons: "equipment could use refurbishment"

Pros: "The cost was cheap"
Cons: "There wasn't much room for someone who is 6'4''"
Pros: "Crew was cordial, helpful and patient."
Cons: "There was absolutely no complimentary service at all, a bit unusual compared to flights we've taken in the past (domestic and international). No offer of free water, what's up with that?!?! There was no entertainment on board for an overnight flight, no blanket, no pillow."
Cons: "This was a return flight I was taking. But even though I paid for a bag when booking, Kayak only booked the bag on the flight over. It there for cost me $48 to book the bag on at the airport one way back. For some reason when I was paying they could not take for the full amount on my CC and so I had to go change money as $8 had to be paid cash (very strange). The flight was very uncomfortable. I could go into detail but now I’m just ranting. Not happy. Won’t be doing that again."
Cons: "I had lost my luggage from Singapore to Maldives’s airport"
Pros: "Scoot Business is excellent value for money. 35 seats at the front of a Dreamliner with comfortable seats and some recline. The flight took off on time and landed in Sydney on time. I will go again."
Cons: "Not much really. It does not compare with Business on the national carriers but at half the price what do you expect?"
Pros: "Boarding was quick and plane embarked on time. ScootBiz seats pretty comfortable although don’t seem to recline much more than economy. Overall good flight though."
Pros: "On time. Service on board simple. Crews are friendly"
Pros: "Nothing"
Cons: "The manager at the ticket office harassed my friend about his VISA- wasted 2 hours of our time saying his visa was not valid when it was. Then she finally gave him a boarding pass. As we hit the gate, she chased us down to yet again, say he couldn't board because of the same reason. She told him when he got back to Hyderabad that he would be charged as a criminal & be held in a cell all alone without a way to commicate to others. It was absolutely absurd!! We made it back to Hyderabad and like we knew the whole time, his VISA was fine."
Pros: "Scoot upgraded to a bigger plane, and as a result had more empty seats"
Cons: "flight was delayed by almost 2 hours due to operational problems. despite that, there were still passengers who were late to board, causing more delays. no apologies from Scoot. plans were derailed."
Lugagge got left behind and didn’t arrive to KL. Missing or delay lugagge, yet no feedback or update
Pros: "Excellent value"
Cons: "Less adders to the base fare"
Pros: "Very disappointed with overall experience. Booked on Kayak, received confirmation but then when I got to the counter to checkin my booking was cancelled and Kayak wouldnt do anything about it. Referred me to airline and basically "not their problem""
Cons: "Kayak could have assisted with problems."
Pros: "Seats very uncomfortable"
Cons: "Allow enough time between flights first of all. I almost missed my flight from Jakarta to Bali. It took me 20 hours. It was an absolute nightmare from beginning to end in every aspect of the word nightmare. Never again."
Pros: "Crew very efficient, seating comfortable compared to other Spore-KL Budget flights."
Pros: "Few flight attendant were cool"
Cons: "Free luggage"
Pros: "void babi"
Cons: "void babi"
Pros: "Because the flight is so short it is hard to evaluate. But overall it was smooth and quick."
Cons: "It was a little hard to determine which zone was boarding when you came in midway. Had to wait a while to figure if your rows were called to board or not."
Pros: "The detail of booking didn't show has paid bag fee.so confuse .And also kayak keep on asking want checking bag....."
Cons: "The night before the flight, I tried to add more to my baggage allowance and the website would not take my credit card (I was within the correct time frame to add the extra baggage). When I explained this to them, they did nothing. The additional cost of 9 kg of baggage doubled the price of my flight. Never again. There are lots of other choices out there and I will choose something else. May karma bite them in the butt."
Pros: "Everything was generally fine"
Cons: "They wouldn’t allow me to check in and couldn’t explain why at SIN airport. Later the lady at the airport info desk clarified it was because of possible volcanic activity in Bali. Seems like the people at jet star might of known this instead of assuming their system was broken?"
Pros: "Nothing"
Cons: "The staffs are very rude and not helpful at all. They cancelled my flight just because i did not book the flight out of philippines and had to wait in the airport for 5 hours to get my baggae after they cancelled my flight. Very very dissapointing."
Pros: "Crew was friendly and smiling throughout the trip."
Cons: "The flight was delayed for one hour because the plane arrived late, but there was no notice about it, or any type of announcement about the delay"
Pros: "The only positive of the flight, was that they accidentally gave me exit row seating."
Cons: "I didn't like that I paid almost $100 on bag fees for one basically empty check bag. They do not offer anything to drink on the flight at all. Not even the un-bottled water. If you want anything to drink you have to pay them for it. The entire flight all they did was try to pedal their over priced junk. The best part of the experience was getting off the plane and knowing that I won't ever fly with them again."
Pros: "Low price, aisle seat"
Cons: "crowded seating"
Cons: "At least offer your customers some water wow"
Pros: "On time. Crew nice and polite."
Cons: "Seats are comfortable but seat speace not so comforz"
Pros: "Crew are ok."
Cons: "No entertainment at all on a 4 hour flight. At least some funny clips or comedy would be suffice. A complimentary drink and some snacks would do too. Price is very deceiving. Luggage price should be included in the price. You book your flights unknowingly that you have to pay for a seat and luggage. leg space is very confined for a 6foot person. Would not recommend this."
Pros: "NOTHING!"
Cons: "We had to pay over $165 USD for luggage. On a 7hr flight we cldnt even get water w/o paying for you"
Pros: "Nothing"
Cons: "My girlfriend and I purchased tickets on Kayak to Malaysia. The price seemed decent and we got the hours we wanted...there was no option to add baggage when I was booking the ticket so I assumed the baggage was included (like on many international flights.) When we got to the airport, our flight was over two hours delayed...We wanted to switch to another flight instead because we had a whole day planned, but they said because it was through a third-party we were not able to do that and there was no way to contact kayak directly. So we were forced to wait and when we went to go check in our luggage they tried to charge us $60 for 15 kg and $20 for every additional kilogram. They said it was too late to get the online price (which was half of that amount) My luggage was 25 kg which amounted to an additional $200 which ended up costing MORE than my round trip flight. Jetstar is the worst airline I have ever flown. I emailed kayak for a refund or some customer support after the nightmare we dealt with ON New Year’s Day and still have yet to hear back about this matter. Going back to solely booking airlines directly or through Expedia because at least you can get in touch with them when things go wrong."
Cons: "No complimentary drinks on flight. Not even water. $4 for bottled water."
Pros: "Getting off the plane."
Cons: "Can't believe I paid $4 for a bottle of water after buying a ticket, paying extra for checked bags, and had to sit on the tarmac for 45 minutes waiting to take off."
Pros: "The airline was very cold."
Cons: "I was frozen for 3.5 hours of flight."
Pros: "I used Jet Star for the first time. Everything went smooth and easy from booking to onboard. It was easier than what I thought and made my trip very casual."
Cons: "Easy to get onboard"
Cons: "I had only one baggageto check in and was forced to pay 30 min before the boarding time."
Cons: "Just a glass of water would be so nice....but how can you lock someone in a metal tube for 2 hours or more and not give them a glass of water if needed....and to have to pay such a big price for a bottle of water is cruel.....we are talking water!!"
Pros: "I had to postpone my flight and I couldn't make it so I canceled my flight and I didn't get the money back."
Cons: "Sneaky baggage fees. Low allowed baggage weights. Charged for in flight soda."
Cons: "I heard bag fees were high, but so much worse than I expected. The baggage fees for my wife and I cost more than the flight, almost $300 USD. Will NEVER fly Jetstar again."
Pros: "nothing"
Cons: "I did not like the fact jetstar did not includ checked baggage for an international flight. i ended up having to pay about 55usd more. moreover no food no drink. i will never fly international with them again. after all i could of flew with some of the best airlines for the price i ended up paying. *got stuck in singapore airport for 10 hours *flight was super cold so a person would have to spend extra money on the comfort kit"
Pros: "The initial price tag"
Cons: "Hidden fees for assigned seat, bags weighing more than 7kg, boarding the flight from the back to front."
Pros: "Nothing"
Cons: "Outrageous baggage fees. I paid over $200 USD for 2 bags. This was so much more than the actual flight itself. I was never told how crappy Jetstar's baggage policy was and I will never fly them again. In fact, it makes me bitter with Kayak even though it doesn't necessarily reflect on you. You should never recommend this airline EVER AGAIN!!"
Cons: "Crew was more in the way during boarding than they were helpful."
Pros: "On time, great cabin crew and clean aircraft. Smooth flight."
Cons: "Checkin at the SIN airport is dysfunctional. Especially for the hub city of Singapore. Go various places and to pay for a bag the only had one person at the service desk. There was a long line of people going to various places with various issues and they only staffed the service desk with one person. Consitently that person has always been rude and non emotional. JetStar either needs to replace those staff are double if not triple the help at the service desk."
Pros: "Price. Punctual."
Cons: "No frills."
Cons: "I tried to book luggage online but it didn't let me do it. I ended up having to shelve out more money at the airport. It is hilarious that the luggage cost more than the airline tickets. The airline staff at the counter laughed and asked me why didn't I do it online? Well I tried and I kept on crashing on their website."
Cons: "I booked a flight from SG to TLV via BKK. Jet star was my first flight. the confirmation mail had one booking number that wasnt JetStar. i coulnt use online check-in."
Cons: "Very expensive baggage fees. We paid over $80 for two small bags that were too heavy to carry on. This is not advertised well at all. Nothing is included. You literally have to pay $3 for a cup of water on the flight. No peanuts, no juice, no water, no bags included. I'm surprised the toilets didn't cost something."
Pros: "Food choixes, terminal of Changi"
Cons: "Little legroom"
Pros: "Great!"
Cons: "Seat too cramp! Hahahaha Overall is still great!"
Cons: "Was reallocated a Malaysians Airline flight due to missing connection entirely due to Qantas delays. That flight was also delayed departing Singapore. Overall a horrific flight"
Pros: "Had to pay $60 to check luggage after they said it was fine and when left the counter going to gate someone stopped me and made me return to the counter and pay. Very inconvenient to be told everything is fine then someone stopped you to return and pay looking like you did something wrong...very unattractive and would not fly this airline again."
Cons: "Would rather pay more for a good airline who will be ok with my cabin luggage than for a less inexpensive airline who makes me feel like a criminal and have to pay extra for luggage."
Cons: "They doubled my flight cost with one checked bag, served no complimentary food or drink, and couldn't speak English. They also didn't give me an immigration form which delayed me and caused problems at the airport. Chairs uncomfortable, overhead announcements unintelligible, no entertainment available whatsoever even if you're willing to pay, pretty bad overall."
Pros: "Boarding was awful as many people ignored the announcements and mobbed the gate. The crew needs to handle them better by telling them to get in line. I understand it's a part of Chinese and Indian culture to just shove and push your way in, but this wasn't either of those countries. The crew needs to make the passengers follow instructions and act more civilized"
Maybe there was something wrong with pressure sensor or something. my ear was very uncomfortable and many babies were crying like hell. It happened during landing.
Ground crew clueless, delayed flight gate change without communication. Horrible experience. Will not fly Vietjet again.
The actual flight was ok, everything else terrible worst airline in South East Asia, delayed twice and eventually took off late again, waiting in room at gate before flight no staff there no information about second delay, jammed on bus with doors closed waiting to be taken to the plane, just a disgusting airline, do not ever rely on this Vietjet will always cancel or delay your flight, and it’s not cheap when you see luggage price and other add ons, if possible try to book a better airline Bamboo air etc
No in flight entertainment, no food, not even drinking water, uncleaned flights, smelly bathrooms, and above all no baggage allowance, they charged us 53700 yen for the baggages.
No, comment Me and my family at the boarding gate more than 30 min early but the flight delayed and they still leave without us.
Pros: "Worst Airline Ever"
Cons: "Vietjet needs to update their refund policy"
Cons: "We left 1. 5 hours late! The only food on the plane was prepackaged chemical foods and the only vegan option was a porridge they pour water over ($2)."
Pros: "N/A"
Cons: "Get more Customer Services training for the better and for the next level of international services provider...."
Cons: "Flight was delayed - be on time"
Cons: "Avoid at all costs. Delayed both ways. On the way out of Danang they would not even tell us what time the flight would be departing despite numerous passengers asking. On the flight, a crew member stepped on my foot with her heel. My foot was NOT in the aisle, she has stepped in to get past a colleague. She didn’t even stop to apologize. Her colleague apologized and said I’ll get you a glass of water. She returned after a good 30 minutes with a paper cup of water. There was no enquiring how I was or if I needed anything. Will NEVER fly them again!"
Pros: "The food is good. Air crew is nice."
Cons: "Worth for money we paid"
Pros: "The crew was very nice and helpful, comfortable seats and the airline seemed well run for a discount carrier."
Cons: "Getting to and from the plane, they use a bus and only had one bus so we was packed in like cattle on a truck"
Cons: "Airport reception is inexperience, could provide us the info we need. Luggage charging 2 for 70kg which is retarded. If you pay online or declare online it gives you discount, unfortunately that doesn’t work on visitors. The check innprocuedure was ineffective and waste lots of time"
Pros: "It was on time for a change"
Cons: "The seats are uncomfortable. We requested 2 aisle seats. Given the ok, and then found out we were seated window and middle. How did that get lost in translation?"
Pros: "Quick flight"
Cons: "It was a quick flight from dalat to hmc. So I didn't expect a lot. But they charged for water and there were no tv's."
Pros: "Flight Cree good"
Cons: "Seats, no jet ways to board or deplane"
Cons: "Baggage policy ridiculous. I was prepared bc I’d heard about the 7g rule but still had me running around almost missing the flight to pay the fee at a different location than the check in desk. The other location had staff on a break. Then no one else at the check in wanted to accept payment so that I could move on to boarding. Staff not friendly about the whole process."
Cons: "Crew members playing video games while waiting on the Tarmac.. very unprofessional.. driver of shuttle should be fired for not paying attention..."
Pros: "Plane was clean and boarding was efficient. Good value. Flight was on time."
Cons: "Online booking experience was confusing as I was rerouted to Kiwi. Tried to pay for both bags at time of booking but was told due to a technical issue I had to pay at the airport. When checking in was forced to pay in cash. More of an inconvenience and caught us off guard. Plane was old and seats were very small and uncomfortable."
Cons: "Flight was delayed an hour and a half without any information as to why. Major grievance was baggage policy. My wife and I have been traveling Asia for the last 7+ month and taken 35 flights to 10 different countries. This is the ONLY time we were told we needed to check our bags (which are both soft-sided and weight ~7kg). Apparently our small backpacks also counted toward the carry-on limit, which would have been fine if not for the following two contradictions: this was our THIRD flight with VietJet Air (one from Siem Reap to Hanoi, Hanoi to Da Nang, Da Nang to Ho Chi Minh) and we didn't have to check baggage the first two. We also saw at least half a dozen people get on our flight with either bags larger than ours, or carrying three pieces of luggage. Either enforce all the rules for everyone, every time they fly the airline, or not at all."
Pros: "Good pilot and crew, comfortable seats because we were given the ones right behind the exit row seats with some leg room."
Cons: "Our original flight time was delayed the first time, and then it got delayed AGAIN about 45 minutes after we got to the airport!"
Pros: "Nothing"
Cons: "Confort"
Cons: "My flight was from Bangkok to Busan, via Hanoi. I was planning to transfer at Hanoi, but Vietjet did not offer transit service. I had to pass immigration (exit the country), then reenter. Luckily Korean citizens can enter Vietnam without visa; otherwise, I would have lost my luggage. Terrible service."
Pros: "Uneventful flight. Nothing worth writing home about. No food, no entertainment, no hassle either."
Cons: "VietJet Air has the habit of not announcing delays until after departure time. It was funny to see the billboards announcing: "On time", then "Boarding" when there was no aircraft in sight. On the Arrivals billboard, it showed the in-coming flight as "Landed", when it most obviously had not landed, and there was no information about when it might eventually arrive. With slow operations, we boarded 40 minutes mate and arrived a full hour late. The schedule had been 9:00 PM; days before flying it was pushed back to 10:00 PM. We actually were at the gate at 11:00 PM. VietJet Air is unfortunately the only airline operating a late flight from Pleiku to Ho Chi Minh. No competition means no pressure to be on time."
Pros: "Flights were on time and worked well for us. Flight attendants were helpful"
Cons: "The charges for each checked bag were annoying. We are a family of three and traveling with a 26 Kg kid but paying full price for our seats. With one checked bag the additional 4 Kg in the bag resulting in an upcharge seems foolish. Other passengers weighing 4 times as much pay the same ticket price as our smaller lighter weigh child."
Pros: "Was on time and cheap."
Cons: "I received a text saying the departure time was delayed 5 hours but that was not true. Don't know where or why the text."
Pros: "Relatively cheap but you get what you pay for."
Cons: "They are super strict with the luggage, and you have to go through multiple steps. Operations are poor. Flight was delayed."
Pros: "I waited 30 minutes in one line just to ask a question about luggage weight. A staff member told me to switch to another line next to me. I asked her three times if she was sure I should change lines. She insisted I move, only to wait in another line for 20 more minutes! There WAS NO ONE WORKING AT THE COUNTER! I found her again and she told me to switch. To another long line next to me and I had enough. I had to yell at her and make it clear that I was not going to wait another minute. I said I am going to the front and I’ll be next. I asked my ONE question about weight. It took 15 seconds and she should have handled it for me from the start."
Cons: "Staff that doesn’t listen and just points to a line when she demonstrated that she speaks some English. Don’t treat foreigners like idiots. They are generally very smart and have a valid question. Learn to LISTEN to your customers. A customer complaint is a gift. It’s up to you what you do with it."
Pros: "Nothing too special to say here. One nice thing was that the lady that checked us in let us carry-on our overweight bags."
Cons: "I wish they had in-flight entertainment, but it's not that big of a deal."
Cons: "Attendants gave the first three rows drinks, but didn't give the rest of the passengers anything."
Cons: "I don't like how the lineup was at check in. You go the counter to check in. Then go to another counter to limeuo again to pay for your bags. Then lineup again for checking in. Very frustrating and confusing. Flight was almost three hours delayed and they refused to change to earlier flight. Service was poor and staff spoke very limited English. Will try to avoid this airline in future. Not a great first time experience."
Cons: "This airline was impossible to get in touch with. THey we're not at all accommodating to my request to change the flight time and sleazily rip you off with what is written in the small print."
Pros: "Good value, and the planes were on time (We took a couple of VietJet flights). Staff was courteous and friendly.Inexpensive! Free bag."
Cons: "Somewhat arbitrary rules about how much your carry on can weigh. I don't really get why this makes much of a difference anyway, as the bag will be on the plane anyway."
Cons: "I am an average height United States male; never have I been so restricted by seat space."
Pros: "Airlineseriously delayed… Triples an hour duration flight… Delayed 2 1/2 hours seriously delayed… Triples an hour duration flight… Delayed 2 1/2 hours"
Cons: "Caroline is wonderful once the plane is able to get into the air"
Pros: "nothing"
Cons: "many delays, no associates anywhere in the terminal to address any issues even though they say repeatedly to see an agent if you have questions, horrible airline that does not deliver the service that is paid for"
Pros: "Not much"
Cons: "Bus instead of ramp boarding. No food or drinks provided. The carts raced by us and did not stop to ask if we wanted a purchase. No leg room in seats."
Pros: "Nothing"
Cons: "Have an error in system. I can't join the flight"
Pros: "Reservations were relatively easy to make on line and relatively easy to purchase on-line."
Cons: "Purchasing tickets this way can result in a lot of confusion upon arriving at the Airport. Without any documents that the Check-in Counter can use to process Check-in, the traveller will find out that a visit is required to a separate desk to obtain your reservation number scribbled on a scrap of paper to take back to the Check-in Counter (after waiting on line there again) so that the agent can find your record and proceed with check-in. This two step process is confusing and not immediately obvious to even the seasoned International traveller. Good thing I'm not easily flustered!"
Cons: "There is no entertainment in flight and baggage check in is an issue ."
Pros: "Clean, efficient, new aircraft, very good value"
Pros: "Schedule and price were reasonable."
Cons: "Extremely noisy announcements, much louder than necessary. Poor boarding information. Incorrect gate info and poor messaging."
Pros: "Cheap fares"
Cons: "Late. Terrible boarding process, agents showed up 15 minutes prior to scheduled departure time, and then put a final boarding call on the message board everyone had a lineup in a long line and no rows called just first come first serve. Male flight attendants were rude."
Pros: "Check in and boarding processes were actually ok this time! Decent timeliness and decent comfort level on flight."
Cons: "I understand that a budget flight will sell food and drink for money, but I feel it would be common courtesy if they at least provided water free of charge if a client asked."
Cons: "#Delayed for about three-quarters of an hour. #Cramped seating. #Coffee unpleasant. #Male crew abrupt."
Pros: "We were very pleased with VietJet Air. Check in went smoothly. Our bags arrived quickly after landing. Good start for the next leg of our journey."
Cons: "Kayak allowed us to book a flight that was impossible to make. We had two separate VietJet flights (one from Da Nang to Hoh Chih Minh and the other from Hoh Chi Minh to Bangkok). When I booked through Kayak, I searched from Da Nang to Bangkok so I thought they were booked on one ticket but they weren't. We had to get my bags in Ho Chih Minh and completely re check-in for our flights to Bangkok within a 30 minute period after deplaning. Luckily the flight to Bangkok was delayed and we had a nice counter representative that bended the rules and allowed us to check-in after check-in had closed but this was a very disappointing experience with Kayak. The representative said that had we booked through the airline website, the system wouldn't have let us knowing we didn't have enough time between flights to get our bags and re-checkin. I would think that Kayak would know this."
Cons: "Crew did not allow me to sit on emergency exit seat even if I am 1'97 tall, no health restrictions, and all the seats wow empty. They also charge a lot for anything over 7kg"
