This was my first time flying with Southwest & most likely my last time booking tickets with them…read more I travel pretty often with a little one & have been since he was a newborn. Southwest does not accommodate young travelers/families like other airlines. While they do offer boarding, it's after groups A & B. I'm also used to leaving a car seat at the gate for pickup as soon as we get off. As soon as we entered the plane, I asked the flight attendant if I was fine to leave my car seat there & they agreed. Southwest also has an open seating plan, meaning you don't have an assigned seat, you just pick one once you get in the plane. After we found seats & stowed out bag, they called out on the speaker of whose car seat was at the gate. I raised my hand & they were like why wasn't it checked. I said I confirmed several times it was good to go. I didn't appreciate being belittled by the lady (not sure of her name but she is at the desk in the picture. Had Southwest made their rules & policies about car seats clear, I would have properly followed them. This flight felt chaotic from the time we lined up to board until the plane took off. While I can appreciate the reasonably priced flights during the holiday time, the customer service & family friendly flights are just not what Southwest is about.

Southwest Airlines has always been our go to airline because they had the two bags fly free deal, but recently that has ended so my feelings about flying different airlines has changed.

First timer! Well I…read moreused Spirit Airlines to fly to Jamaica in September 2024. Well it's January 2025 and I guess Spirit is exciting the chat. IDK. Nevertheless, this was my husband and I first time using Spirit and I loved it. The only hiccup, for my husband, the seats did not have enough cushion. Luckily, we traveled from Norfolk to Orlando and then the next day Orlando to Jamaica. Therefore, our flight times were not long at all, but that was his only complaint. Oh no snacks - no free snacks. Just bring your own and you'll be fine! Myself, I have a lot of internal cushion, therefore, the seats were fine for me, but I get his point. Now they offer different seating with extra comfy seats and extra cost. But flying Spirit the goal is to save where you can. Overall, if I have the opportunity to fly with Spirit again, I will. I am a fan of direct flights! And Spirit delivered! The flight attendants were friendly too! I hope Spirit doesn't go!! Have fun and enjoy life :)

This week I will log my two millionth mile on Delta. Over the past 30 years I've had my share of…read morefrustrating flight delays and cancellations - too many to mention - however when travelling over 100k miles per year I've learned those are just part of the process. What stands out to me about Delta is that I chose them as my airline all those many years ago (I went to high school about a mile from the current southernmost runway at ATL) and it seems that they are always working to get better and better at taking care of me. Thank you Delta!

The Delta staff at Norfolk International Airport went above and beyond during an unexpected delay…read more Our flight from New Orleans to JFK had to make a detour and land in Virginia due to ice and snow on the ground, and the aircraft wasn't equipped for such a long delay. The team in Norfolk stepped in immediately, bringing pizza pies and cases of water for everyone on board and making sure passengers were taken care of. Their kindness, organization, and genuine concern turned a stressful situation into the best experience we've ever had during a delay. Truly outstanding customer service. Flight DL1968 12/14/25

This is a very pretty, modern, well maintained airport, only about 25 minutes from Virginia Beach…read more There's a huge passageway that connects the terminal to parking garage and rental cars. The main lobby area has few restaurants, shops restrooms, and even a small kid's play area. The glass ceilings brings in lots of sunlight. They have an airport logo sculpture for visitors to take pictures. There are two concourses in the airport. They have big signs with airline names on each concourses entrance. The security screening was quick. Inside the terminal there were more shops and restaurants but we didn't see any airport lounges. At the gate, there were clear signs for each flight. But the building and interior seemed older than the main lobby section. The boarding was smooth and the flight left on time. Good work overall by the ground crew.

Norfolk International is what I would consider a medium sized airport. There are smaller and there…read moreare much larger. Major renovations are happening at present. Some airlines require you to fly smaller planes out of Norfolk with layovers and plane changes at a hub. There are convenient direct flights such as Delta to LaGuardia in NYC. This is an important flight for me. Another direct flight is one my sister took for many years on Southwest from Nashville. My earliest experiences with flying were in really small airports, some of which probably no longer exist. You haven't lived until you've flown a single prop plane that shook all the way up and down then landed in Greenville, MS stopping just as it reached the levee of the Mississippi River.. When I moved to Atlanta in 1971 my flying experiences completely changed with Hartsfield-Jackson. My first encounter with Norfolk International was when my then 4 year old son & I were coming to meet my already relocated husband to look at houses. My son flew with us a lot from Atlanta. So his experience was with the busiest airport in the world. As we taxied to our gate he said "Oh look, a baby airport. Have you ever seen an airport so small? Isn't it cute?" The more I shushed him the louder he became. People started looking at us. I thought "These people are never want us living here." Forty years later the airport has grown. A new terminal has been built, parking has been expanded with more expansion in progress. An extremely convenient "Park & Wait" lot has been built for those waiting to pick up someone at baggage claim. A new rental car building is in planned and in progress. The airport is convenient, close to my house and meets my needs and those of my family flying in. Forty years later it's served me well.

I've never had a good experience flying American. My flights with this airline haven't just been…read moreflying from Norfolk International. They go back to the time I lived in Atlanta and flew out of Atlanta Hartsfield Jackson International. I've always experienced delayed flight. There have been other times the flight has boarded then sat on the tarmac for over an hour with no water offered. My worst delays were in Philadelphia. My worst tarmac experience was at Chicago O'Hare. Flying from Norfolk International requires taking an American Eagle flight to airports such as Charlotte & Reagan National to change planes. The layout of the Charlotte Airport makes flight changes difficult. I've run from one end of the airport to the other to make my flight. My sister recently came on American and experienced a long delay leaving for Reagan due to activities in DC. This would only be my airline choice for a flight if there were absolutely no other choices available.
