    Easy checkin on app and our seat in eco section. Staff are nice and pleasant throughout the terminal (maybe we're there early in the morning so), but easy boarding, no issues and take off on time. Seats are comfortable and all equipment works. We arrived 20mins ahead of schedule so can't say much.

    Delta is definitely one of the best airlines for me and my wife. Our trip to Orlando from jfk was good .The 2 and a half hours flight went smoothly, flight was on time and landed on time.we also flew back using delta the flight was smooth no turbulence, just a good trip some snacks and a movie made the flight a bit more fun. Definitely a good airline to use for our birthday destination.

    Delta one on the 767-300 is ... fine? For the price you don't get a huge seat and you don't get a huge, modern screen, but you do get nice staff, nice food (although didn't love everything coming on one tray on this recent flight, but that was maybe because it was only a 6 hour overnight flight) and a place to get a decent few hours sleep. I'll fly it again, but prefer their other planes.

    Once again chose to fly on Delta and haven't been disappointed yet especially when traveling first class on Domestic flights seats are comfortable and service has always been great and they usually have good food options which is always nice. Also the stewardess are always nice and very friendly which is always nice . I will always be flying with Delta as long as they keep the good options out there and prices are reasonable.

    I have been a loyal delta customer for a few years and currently have medallion status. I am a delta Amex card holder. I had never had issues with delta until today but the inexcusable lack of empathy and customer service after completely ruining a costumers day is almost enough to make me never give them business again. I had a flight booked from Jacksonville to LaGuardia with a layover in Atalanta for 3pm. I was coming from a cruise ship so unintentionally ended up at the airport at 9am several hours before my flight. Checked my bag, printed my boarding pass and went through security with no problem. After 2 hours of sitting in the airport my delta app had suddenly changed from showing my digital boarding pass to prompting me to check in again. At first I assumed it was just a glitch with the app and tried to check in again. However, it said there was an issue checking me in and to either call or go to a gate agent. I walked to my gate agent and asked why my flight was no longer showing. He then informed me there was a different direct flight to LaGuardia available and would I like to take that flight and get home a few hours earlier. I said that sounds fine but I wanted to make sure my bag got changed because I had checked a bag for the original flight. The agent radioed the baggage handler and assured me my bag was being moved to the new flight and wouldn't be an issue. The agent then printed a boarding pass and I noticed my seat was now showing main cabin not the comfort plus upgraded seat I had paid for. I verified with the gate agent if it was comfort plus and he assured me even though it was not comfort plus it had extended leg room like the comfort plus seat. Once we finally board I realize the reason it was extra leg room was due to being in an emergency exit row which would not recline. So I was downgraded from the seat I paid for to be put in a seat with no recline much further in the back of the plane. To make things worse there was no WiFi of any kind not even for medallion members on the flight so I had 2.5 hours on a seat with no recline or WiFi after paying for an upgraded comfort plus seat. It was also one of the dirtiest Delta planes I have ever seen. Then the cherry on top. I arrive in New York to find out I was lied to and my bag was never moved to the new flight. The lost baggage agent accepted no responsibility for the airline losing my bag and attempted to blame me that I "changed flights" even though I was told in Jacksonville they had changed my flight and I just said OK. This was not something I initiated or asked to happen. She never apologized and acted like they were doing me a favor offering to deliver the bag THEY LOST! I informed her there was absolutely no chance I was coming back to the airport at 11pm for a bag they lost so they absolutely would be delivering it to my home. Finally I called the corporate customer service number to file a complaint. Again I feel the customer service was no where near good enough and they did not want to accept any responsibility. I asked for the bare minimum which is a refund for the difference of the comfort plus seat I originally booked and paid for to the basic economy seat I was given. The customer service agent said they would put in a refund request and someone would contact me if it is approved. As someone who works as a hotel manager I know the importance of customer satisfaction and customer retention. While I understand things happen, if a customer does not get the exact product they pay for they are entitled to a refund of the difference, if not give a full refund as a courtesy to ensure customer retention. I have two international flights booked for the coming year that I bought non refundable months ago because I am a loyal delta customer. Before today I felt delta provided the best product for air travel and knew even if I have to change dates as a medallion member I can still change dates or get delta credit for future flights. At this point I would strongly consider cancelling my international flights and booking them on a different carrier. Due to having non refundable flights I will continue to give them my business for now but if I decide to buy future delta flights I will most likely purchase refundable and will cancel them immediately if I ever have an issue anywhere near as bad as this! I have traveled with delta exclusively for two years. I took connecting flights that took much longer than direct flights offered by other carriers. I would have recommended delta (or a European delta affiliate) to anyone over any carrier domestic or European for the past two years. While every airline can have cancellations, disturbances, and delays, the way you handle those situations are what matters. Delta handled this situation so poorly at most I can recommend delta with caution. When things go well they are great, but unfortunately when things go poorly they do not have adequate customer service.

    The air conditioning is blowing really well! I'll give them that credit lol The seats are decent. At least this plane, they were alright. We've been on smaller feeling planes. I got the end seat, so admittedly I do have more room to "hang out" into the aisle. They have a cool lighting system and the colors change throughout the flight. That's more esthetic though. Service was fine Flight attendant seems friendly enough. Movie selection was alright; they had the new Deadpool movie. Surprised they had that one lol

    It was 11 hours flight to Honolulu, Hawaii. It wasn't the longest flight I have ever flied. Can't compare to across Pacific Ocean flight that use bigger aircraft, newer model and more functional. Obviously pretty old airplane with not so much clean on the side of the seat. With my little experience about flying, I mostly bring my own meal or snack to be less expectation about food. Because I travel as a couple, I paid extra to be able to seat at the window seat for long flight like this. It was worth to see the sky, land and ocean when you take off and landing.

    I am a United person but given the cluster in EWR and air traffic control, I flew Delta from SF to JFK and might have to make the switch permanent. Flight on time both ways, great lounges and a separate security line with no one for DL One. Come on now!

China Southern rebooked our entire party on the next available plane which luckily was 3 hours later. They did this change without additional cost to us. I thought that was amazing because they did not have to do that! The flight attendants were excellent. They responded promptly and efficiently to everyone who pushed the call button.

Every seat has their own entertainment with a nice selection of movies, TV shows, and games. They kept the passengers stocked with pillows and blankets.

The first time, we were on a very old airplane. It was about a 10-hour flight from JFK to Tel Aviv, so it would have been nice to have had some entertainment. There was a TV screen from 1984 on the back of every chair, and it played movies that kept cycling through, AKA you could not control the start or end time of it. Coming home, we were on what I was told was a Dreamliner, and it was very modern and much better. Each seat comes equipped with an iPad type of screen and there was a large selection of movies, TV shows, and even books to choose from. The food was actually very good for the most part, for breakfast yesterday they fed us omelets and I don't eat eggs, so I asked for something else, but they didn't have an alternate (they said they had ran out). Since I can't eat dairy either, and the breakfast consisted of yogurt and other dairy things, I was stuck eating the bread and the small cookie. On the newer plane that we got, the seats reclined far back, which I thought was a good thing at first... Until the rude passenger in front of me put her seat down all the way for the entire 12-hour flight. I initially asked her to move it up a little bit and she did move it all the way up (more than I expected). Later, she reclined all the way back again, and I asked her to move it up a little, to which she flatly replied, No. She must have told the flight attendant that I asked her this, too, because the flight attendant then asked me not to "tell" her that she has to put her seat up. (I didn't TELL, I asked....) Other than that, the trip home was much better than the trip there, due to the modern plane and the snacks and amenities offered.

    So far my least favorite airline. Well, except for maybe United. I hate United. My first trip to…read moreIsrael. 11 hours. Started out getting on the plane thirty minutes early, all is well with the world. Sit down. Wait. Wait. Keep waiting. We left 80 minutes late. Guess how many announcements they made. I'll wait (I did already for so long). Yup, that's right, 0. We literally sat there from 11:20pm through 1:10am with not one announcement. So we finally take off, things are fine. About seven hours in, the elderly woman next to me tried to in-recline her seat in business class. Nope. Unsuccessful. So the staff comes and tries to fix it for ten minutes while she's standing next to them. She's 80 for chrissakes. Let the woman sit. So after over 20 minutes of this, they offer her first class, she wants to stay with her family, so they give her my seat and I take the first class seat. Yay. It's so....average. Literally the only difference between first class and business class is more leg room and better waitstaff. It's not special. So super long story long, coach would have been a nightmare, entertainment doesn't exist (there's a TV but it one from the 1980s with programming from the 19th century), there's no Wifi or outlets for an 11 hour plus flight, and the food isn't good. So why two stars? Well the seats are comfortable. I slept better on that plane than I do in my bed. I wouldn't go at all in coach, but business class is fine. And I felt safe which can't be understated. Back again and it's worse than last time. 2.5 hour delay with no announcement why. So for three flights, I've had waits of 1, 1.5 and 2.5 hours, respectively, and numbers of announcements of 0,0 and 0. My friend is in coach and he says that it stinks unbearably. It's also very warm, as the air isn't on despite us being on the plane for twenty minutes. I'm still not going to give it 1 star since I sleep so well in business class on these recliners, but this airline doesn't have much else going for it.

I spoke with two representatives for which when they went to try to book the line was connected but remained silent - they didn't respond further without telling me to hold. I then called back and spoke with a lovely man Derriek who was reportedly able to make the reservation and took my credit card information, but didn't give me a confirmation #. I called back and rep Porgy said he could not find my reservation. I requested to speak with a supervisor Gabby who also could not find my reservation and said we could try to rebook so in the process of checking flights and giving her all our information, she kindly went to check how much extra baggage would be, but then returned and noted that since it was an austrian air flight, she could not book for us (?!!!) She said I would need to call Austrian Air. When I told her that I DID call Austrian Air and that the phone redirected me to her organization which I thought was Luftansa. I asked for Austrian Air's number and she gave me516.738.4422. I called that number and received a recording that it was a customer feedback line to which no live person would answer (!!!) I left a message to notify them of the issues. I then resorted to a travel agency. However, when just double checking if the Austrian Air number really did route to Luftansa, I got representative named John, who said they were a "Miles and More" Star Alliance center who would be able to book any of the star alliance airlines including Austrian Air and Luftansa. But THAT call got disconnected. This was so crazy and wasted hours of my day. I'm very disappointed by these airlines and wish they had the decency to at least be upfront about whether they could book or not and do it in a timely/professional fashion.

    I am shocked by my own positive review of Austrian Airlines from exactly the same time last year!…read moreThis time, it was all largely awful as follows: 1- Tight, cramped seating that made the 8 1/2 hours really miserable. The aisles are so narrow that the flight attendants who walk aggressively, the carts, and other passerbys constantly knock into people in the aisle seats. 2- Barebones amenities: Poor entertainment choices on flights to and from JFK. Lots of 'B' movies and TV. 3- Poor quality food: Vegetarian dinner was simply pasta and tomato sauce- no vegs, no nothing. Breakfast was a hard sweet roll and the coffee was beyond awful 4- Filthy/dirty bathrooms! On most other airlines, the staff will check periodically to make sure the bathrooms are bearably clean. NOT on Austrian. How utterly disgusting after many hours in the air! 5- Hot and stuffy in the cabin with no ability to manually adjust air flow above our heads and the staff kept it warm- probably in the 80s. Who can sleep in such heat?? 6- Check in at the Vienna airport for Austrian Airlines is incredibly barebones. No personnel to check you in. Instead you must use the confusing machines, with only one assistant to help people use the many kiosks. The only personnel are the 2 people to receive your checked-in luggage. The Austrian Airlines experience was so poor that I now dread using them again if I want to return to Vienna. I probably would even chose using Luthansa with a stop, in order to avoid this really terrible airline!

    First time using this airline, I arrived at JFK at 11:15 am to find ITA check in was not even setup…read morefor checking in sign at counter said they would open at 12:30pm. Once they opened and were called to the counter with our carry on we were told we had to weigh our carryon and then wifey and I were told our bags were overweight fortunately the woman who checked us in told us she would not charge us for the bags. So I will say our individual person who checked us in was friendly enough. Gate 2 is nothing like Aer Lingus terminal 7 they have individual charging stations at each individual seat this terminal 1 gate a has 2 stand alone charging stations. Disappointing.Now the flight I've never flown internationally where the captain did not explain what he was saying in Italian to English at one point while I was asleep he made an announcement in mid flight in Italian but never translated so I went back to sleep since I didn't see people panicking. Once landing they have a very repetitive way of entering the country called EES just implemented in October of last year. Entry/Exit System. First YOU scan your passport not knowing which way to insert it is one of the problems once you do that the same machine takes your picture then you press down on a fingerprint pad minus your thumb and then your'e done... or are you now you go to a set of glass doors and repeat steps one and two then the first door opens and now you are standing in front of door #2 and must now use fingerprint pad again to get through door #2 sometimes it takes a while, then there you stand on line for the officer to acknowledge you lies took about a minute to look up and say you can go on through no longer stamping your passports. You are allowed to stay 90 days or else who knows. After all that now you can retrieve your luggage about a 35 minute process and luggage still hadn't started sending luggage up from plane.

    Never fly this airline. It will only depress you. Anger you. Age you. Frustrate you. Pain you…read more Make you cry. It is the worst airline on this planet run by the worst people. If you do not take this review seriously and you do choose to fly them, then do not complain when the trip breaks you. You have nobody but yourself to blame. You have been warned. There are so many options. And if it means you pay a little extra with another airline then trust me that's money very well spent. Peace of mind, comfort, and professionalism is well worth paying a bit more for. Again, do not fly this airline. It's not worth the aggravation and stress.
