    My rating is 4.5 stars. Nearly two weeks ago, my flight heading home to Toronto was cancelled. I was completed checked in at Minneapolis-Saint Paul Airport (MSP) when I got the news. My flight was on Air Canada (AC). What I like about AC is that it books you on alternative flights when your original one is cancelled. I got my new itinerary within an hour of getting the official communication that my flight was cancelled. You simply need to confirm that you are good with the itinerary or contact the airline to revise it. I had two flight segments. My first one was on American Airlines (AA) from MSP to Chicago O'Hare (ORD). I'd then take an AC flight home to Toronto. My flight out of MSP was at the crazy time of 5:30 am. I basically slept from midnight till just past 2 am, chilled a bit, and then left for MSP with an arrival time of 3 am. I don't remember every flying on AA. I did like the check-in process. I spoke to a woman in the check-in area and she confirmed that I was in the right lineup. I got a wonderful check-in agent. She found me in her system using my passport. I had to pay for my one piece of luggage that I was checking in. The transaction was smooth. She was great letting me know that my luggage was fully checked through to Toronto. She tagged it. She printed out my boarding pass and let me know what gate I needed. I noticed that my regular north security gate wasn't open. I asked if it would be or if I should try the south one. The north security gate opens at 4 am. I had ten minutes to kill. The south one is always open. It was good information to know. I thanked her, wished her a good day, and headed over to the south security gate. I've never been there. Why not give it a go? I had lots of time to kill. A lot of eateries at MSP don't open until 5 am. My flight boarded at that time. Luckily, I wasn't hungry. The woman at the check-in counter was awesome. She let me know that I was boarding at gate D3, which is between two Delta gates. She was right. It was the only AA gate on concourse D. The boarding process is by group number. I was in group 8, which was pretty close to the end of the numbering system. AA folks handling the boarding process were extremely efficient. I typically have my boarding passes in my passport. One of the AA female staffers looked at my passport, said that I didn't need it, and then proceeded to broadcast that message over the speaker system. Really? I felt it was such an unnecessary and extreme move to mention that over the speaker at 5 am. I wasn't even at the point where I show my boarding pass to the AA person. It's how I roll. Both my boarding passes are in my passport. My second one requires showing my passport. Anyway, the man who scanned my boarding pass was friendly. I had no problems putting my backpack in the overhead compartment when I got on the plane. I sat in my comfy seat. It had a USB port for charging. I was happy. I fell asleep. I don't remember the plane taking off. I woke up at 6:23 am. My timing was impeccable. I woke up in time for a beverage and snack. In a sleepy haze, I ordered a Diet Coke. The man with the drink cart was so nice. I got a full can and a cup with ice in it. I also got Biscoff cookies. I love AA. I would fly again with you just for Biscoff. My flight landed in ORD at its scheduled time of 7:15 am. I took a nap from the time I had had my light snack to the time the plane touched down. I had a great experience on AA. Minus the over-the-top passport announcement, I'd be happy to fly on AA again. (499)

    My flight to Anchorage originated with Minneapolis to Chicago then Alaska Airlines from Chicago to Anchorage. This was a short little over an hour flight. I checked my bag and it made it to Anchorage. I also let them assign my seat and as a nice surprise, I got exit seating! They give a full can of pop and biscoff cookies. No compaints.

    Okay, i purposely waited until i completed my there and back flight with AA. My experience GOING to Chicago was fabulous. I couldn't locate my "recorder" number since it isn't listed that way on the email and asked an associate to assist me. He went over and beyond with his customer service. Very helpful and kind, professional and personable. The gentleman who assisted me with checking my bag was also very helpful and he was cute too... so that helped at 5am ish. LOL The airplane ti's self had cushy seats and we watched free movies. Coming BACK from Chicago was HORRIBLE! My flight was delayed 5x! I was scheduled to leave at 740pm Sunday evening, but we didn't leave until after 1am early Monday morning. *insert eye roll* The girl at the counter had no empathy and was not very friendly and seemed irritated with me for asking if they planned on cancelling the fligh upon their 3x delaying the flight. I had no attitude, but was quite ready to board the plan. Her snarky response made me stare at her, like a raging mother ready to snatch a kid up, but the lady that I am, kept my mouth shut and i stared... without blinking... until she was uncomfortable and I slowly walked away. By the 5th time delaying the flight and a shift change and 3 gate switches, the last lady finally gave us our first apology for the delay. I did send AA an email complaint wand was provided a $100 voucher, but I'm still not happy.

    Customer service with a stick up the @$$!

    Sun Country Airlines - Consistently Reliable and Truly Minnesotan!…read more As a native Minnesotan now living in San Diego, Sun Country has always been my go-to airline. In the beginning, I chose them because they offered a convenient direct flight home. Something every parent traveling with a baby truly appreciates. Over the years, that one baby turned into two (now 12 and 9!), and every summer, our family flies to Minnesota on Sun Country as a yearly tradition. This year, an unexpected family medical event required me to travel sooner than planned. I called in to make changes to my ticket, and while Miss Heidy wasn't able to waive the fare difference, however she went above and beyond to help. She patiently walked me through options, including combining our family's Sun Country rewards points to make the new ticket more affordable. That level of understanding and customer care means so much. Especially during stressful times. Thank you, Sun Country (and Miss Heiydi!), for continuing to make travel between my two homes a little easier and a lot more personal.

Long story short, I had a flight to ORD that was diverted to MSP and we had to deplane and leave to hotels outside of the airport. Upon returning to the airport roughly 6 hours later, security did not have an active flight entry to reference. So after walking for 20 minutes to get to security, the TSA agent said I needed to go back to the American Airlines counter to have them generate a physical ticket. So as I am walking out, I am met by this gentleman who can be best described as an undercover Miami cop with the charisma of someone who isn't afraid to make his presence known. He gave me one direction, "follow me and act like you're supposed to be here." I didn't understand the message until he started moving people and going through lanes and checks without really explaining anything to me or the others he was moving. He escorted me all the way to the American Airlines counter and had me cut in front of dozens of other passengers. When the issue was resolved, he walked me through the long security lines and had me jump again to the front, where they scanned me in and I was soon at the gate. The dude was courteous and cool and the whole ordeal took less time than it took to get me through security.

And now I remember that incidents like this are why I don't fly Spirit. What a poor excuse for an airline.

Their fares are very low because you have to pay al-a-cart for everything such as bags, food and drinks, ect. however the airline staff were the most friendly that I have seen in a very long time! Check-in process: you can check in on your phone and check your bag for no cost or you can print your tickets at the airport which I believe costs 10 dollars each. This was a very quick and easy process. Also for checked bags they cannot be over 40 lbs or you will get charged extra, but they have scales before you get in line that are all the same weight measurements as the one by the bag check people. Boarding: this was a very quick and easy process they called the boarding zones and we got on the plane. On the flight: the only thing bad was one of the lavatories was out of paper towels but they had water in them (someone said they didn't) the seats don't recline but I prefer this as I hate people leaning in my lap. They come through for drink and snack services the only difference is you have to pay for soft drinks and water too but they do have deal bundles where you save money which is nice. Overall I really enjoyed my experience with spirit and will fly with them again and recommend them to others.
