    The Qatar airlines service from JFK was very professional and the checkin was not confusing. Everyone that assisted me from Qatar airlines were all polite. The food on the airline was good. The hospitality all in all is a 9/10. I would fly with Qatar airlines again !

    It was a horrible experience my first time flying Qatar Airways. , my flight was delayed 45 minutes at JFK, I didn't sweat it because I would still have another hour before my transfer flight took off at Doha. But no, it took an additional hour and 15 minutes of flight time. Did the pilots have a light foot on the gas? So, I missed my connecting flight to Davao via Manlla. I went to the Qatar service desk, and the best they could do was another flight, that left 8 hours later at 3 AM, with an additional 4-hour layover in Cebu before I got to Davao. which meant I will be in Davao close to midnight and I would lose a whole day of vacationing. Keep in mind if I was willing to do 12-hour layovers I could have saved hundreds of dollars on my plane fare when I first booked my flight. Since this was all Qatar's fault the least Qatar Airways could have done was let me stay in the lounge while I waited, but no, I had to sit in an empty terminal with nothing to do for 8 hours. I also had to sit next to an obviously sick passenger coughing and sneezing on a 12-hour flight so 2 days after I got to Davao I got sick too. I vow never to step near Qatar Airways again for the rest of my life.

    I flew Qatar Airways business class to Zanzibar, Tanzania as a graduation gift. My graduation gift was a trip to Africa. I flew in Qatar's QSuite which was such a glorious experience, I may never want to fly economy again. Lol They offer a welcome drink on arrival, complimentary pajamas and slippers, an all day menu you can order from, and seats that recline into beds. The QSuite has a door you can close giving you the ultimate privacy. I got the best sleep ever! I almost didn't want to get off of the plane. The QSuite is like a vacation in itself. The food was delicious, and the entertainment was great. Words can't describe my experience so I'm hoping that my photos can. If you're ever in a position to fly business class, even if it's just to experience it once in your life, it's a must do!

    Note this is not Qatar airways but this is the terminal (8) which Qatar airways uses at JFK Airport. I had to take off a couple of stars since I tried calling the airlines on behalf of my friend and it was faster for me to almost drive from Albany than anticipate them to pick up your call. I waited for more than an hour for someone to answer the call, which was left unanswered even after I reached the airport.

    This holiday season, I am thankful for the OneWorld alliance and the code-share partnership between American Airlines and Qatar Airways. I purchased my holiday trip from American Airlines, and my flight was operated by Qatar Airways. On the 12+ hours' flight from JFK to Doha, I was in the window QSuite (more like a cubicle with a door), and had the best sleep I had ever had on a plane. The bed was actually comfortable, and the privacy added to the comfort. The flight attendants were extremely gracious and solicitous of the comfort and enjoyment of all the passengers. The food included hearty options, such as braised short rib, as well as lighter options, such as sliders and finger sandwiches (the latter as part of the afternoon tea offering). One downside (which I actually didn't mind too much because I really needed a good night's rest more than I needed internet access) was that the in-flight WiFi did not work, despite the captain having reset the modem / router multiple times. The layover at the Doha airport was also quite pleasant, especially at the spacious Al Mourjan lounge with the excellent food offerings. Qatar Airways claims to have the best business class service of any airline in the world, and so far, I can't disagree.

    I definitely will fly with QA again and again. I joined the club! It's pretty similar to Singapore and Cathay Pacific Airlines, with excellent service and airlines. I like the preferred seating or economy premium, where I paid slightly more but not the price of a business class. The interior lighting is pretty impressive, burgundy to purplish. It's their color code. I flew Boeing 777 from JFK to Kuala Lumpur with a transit in Doha. I flew 777 many times, but this one was one of the best. Newer version because the old versions leave it out to other airlines lol kidding! Boarding at JFK was slow at waiting time but smooth once they started calling each zone. Doha to KL was via QA Airbus. When I returned, they put me on Malaysia Airlines from KL to Doha because they partnered with MH. I made a stopover in Doha for three nights. There's no Yelp in Qatar, no yelping, so my Doha experiences will not be available on Yelp. Check my TripAdvisor in a few days or a week or so. When you fly Qatar Airways internationally, do the stopover package and visit Doha. It was worth it! QA has the amenities I wanted on the plane. I got free WiFi for being a member, or you can pay $10 for the entire flight. Not bad at all. Their entertainment choices weren't a lot compared to Singapore Airlines, but how much can you watch when what you plan to do is sleep on a night flight. QA serves some great meals and snacks. I didn't make any meal requests this time because I saw the menu before booking the flight. I ate everything I ordered from the menu except some desserts that I tried a bit to clean my palate. Great menu. The bathroom was clean. Hamad International Airport in Doha is one of the best airports plus super clean. There are a lot of staff members who assist you from the time you arrive in Doha to making transit to another security checkpoint and also at the baggage claim areas. You won't get lost here because the staffers are so helpful and efficient. Thanks for making my journey worthwhile by getting me to Malaysia to see my parents safely, especially my Mom, and flying me back to NY safely. Thank you QA!

    SERIOUS WARNING -- JETBLUE VACATIONS & CHASE…read more Our experience with JetBlue Vacations on June 19, 2026 was extremely disappointing. We paid in full in May for a package including a flight from New York to Los Angeles and an eight-night stay at the Orange County Airport Hotel in Santa Ana, CA. Before arriving, we called the hotel to advise that we would be checking in late, only to be told they had no room available and not to come, despite our prepaid reservation. When we tried to resolve the issue, hotel staff were rude, dismissive, and hung up on us. We immediately contacted JetBlue Vacations, but despite repeated assurances that they would resolve the situation, they took no action. After 1:00 a.m., we were forced to find another hotel ourselves at approximately 2:00 a.m., pay a last-minute rate, and incur duplicate hotel expenses. After weeks of communication, JetBlue still failed to make us whole, leaving us approximately $700 out of pocket, plus significant stress and lost vacation time. We then disputed the charges through JPMorgan Chase and provided documentation proving we had prepaid for both the flight and hotel and that the hotel accommodation was not provided. Chase ultimately told us that Visa declined the dispute. Despite our documentation and repeated requests for assistance, we felt Chase failed to advocate for us or protect us as customers. Our warning: Think twice before booking through JetBlue Vacations, consider avoiding the Orange County Airport Hotel, and carefully research Chase's dispute-resolution process before relying on them for significant travel purchases. We paid for a vacation and did not receive what we purchased. JetBlue Vacations, the hotel, and Chase all had opportunities to do the right thing. In our experience, none of them did.

    FATTIES AND WOKE LISTEN UP…read more This is my second time flying Spirit and my first time flying it out of LGA. My first time years ago out of EWR was solid and I'm happy to report that they've only improved. Spirit is known for the nickel and dime bait and switch but reading is fundamental and they've seemingly abandoned their most pernicious policies. READ ON to learn how to get the most value of of this airline: They have a product called Spirit First which includes The Big Front Seat. It's the equivalent of a first class domestic seat on legacy airlines. Comes with unlimited free snacks, beverages, and alcohol. The seats are wide and pre-reclined. BUT WAIT - purchase of this experience also comes with a personal item, a carryon, AND one free checked bag. Gone are the days when Spirit would financially ruin you for having a bag that was 1/2 inch too long. I even have a specially sized Spirit duffel from yesteryear that was compliant with their old "underseat" baggage rules. Let it go - we don't need it anymore. They've normalized lol. Anyway no one sits in the BFS because Spirit flights are so cheap in economy class. The flight I took to Chicago would have been under $100 if I stuck to economy. However as I'm fat and value not getting DVT as I cross over the Great Lakes, I sprung for the full GFE. Listen to me: this same itinerary on domestic first class Delta would have cost me $805. On Spirit it was $337. Be cute if you want but there's nothing cuter than saving $500. In LGA, Spirit leaves out of Art deco Terminal A. When we pulled up I actually thought I was in the wrong place - I always thought Terminal A was for decoration lol. But it's the dedicated Spirit terminal. I got from my car to seated by the gate in 5 minutes. FIVE MINUTES. Bag drop was a breeze, security was done in an instant, and the gates are 100 paces from security. All of the airport staff and airline employees were super nice. On board the great experience continued. Fat and Woke Stuff: Traveling as a fat flier is so nerve wracking. Small seats, mean passengers, inaccessible everything. However the Big Front Seats restore dignity to the process. Be advised if you may need a seatbelt extender, don't book rows 1 and 3 of the BFS as those have inflatable belts. Spirit has a detailed webpage that explains this so PLEASE READ it before selecting your seats. Spirit had a bad rap in years past because of its money grubbing tactics. I think it maintains one because of how it has democratized cheaper travel esp on shorter routes - and people don't like those that they think do not "deserve" to move about the country or world freely. Let me speak plainly: Too dark and too poor. Notice how whenever there's footage of an in-flight fight or disturbance posted online people are like "MUST BE SPIRIT!" Whole time it's a flight somewhere in western Europe smh. My flight crew was mostly Black and Brown and returning to EWR on the way back, many of the passengers were as well. I dunno about you but being with my people makes me feel safe, seen, and cared for. This airline is an incredible value. The planes are new, staff is friendly, and the BFS rival any of the bigger players in domestic first class. The Spirit infrastructure is much improved too. There were tons of employees by the kiosks ready to assist and the app is simple to use. I will not hesitate to use Spirit First again for my trips to Chicago. Economy class, however, can go to hell. Ain't no way that little bit of seat pitch is safe.

    Spirit is a great deal. You will find spirit beat most of the flights on Kayak. So if you find a…read morenonstop flight you will get a great deal. Plus if you're going out of LaGuardia Airport New York City, It's Terminal A and And even though it is an old Terminal and it did not yet go through Construction like the other terminals, I prefer it because it's smaller and there are not long lines and walk to TSA is very short. Spirit Airlines doesn't have the best or most friendly staff but they are getting better because I find that quality of the staff are not as professional or experienced. And the technology at the gates are old. For example they didn't bother to announce that a flight was taking off and due to already delays it was difficult to know what they announced if they announced anything bc it wasn't done over the loudspeaker and it wasn't posted on the screens. The LGA airport Spirit used to have the most rude and disrespectful TSA staff. For example they would yell at you for no reason and holler at you to "stand over there, put your hands up" and talk to you like you were a prisoner who just murdered your son. The attitudes and total bullying was widespread across the board for most of the female TSA staff including managers and thought it was ok to abused customers. So I complained 3x to managers in 2023. And one flight attendant - another female was so rude and yelled at me to close the window and I didn't know why I had to do it so I asked her nicely and she just sucked her teeth and shut it really forcefully in front of me. No manners or respect. And the Gates at Terminal A for Spirit are not cool in summer bc it's jam packed and not enough seats and not good food and not enough bathrooms and not many charge stations. But beyond all this the price of the tickets are pretty amazing so I can't complain esp after they upgraded all the seats to vinyl leather and it was comfy and new. No the seats do not recline but the seats are wide enough and if you buy a comfy first class type seat for $20-$75 depending on the flight, it's huge. Just pack very light and make sure your suitcase is as small as a backpack or you will be charged. See pic for a good guide on what you can count as a personal item for free. And make sure you prepay for a carry on item bc it will be much cheaper when you book the flight. At the gate it will be an added $75 or so. Oh and if you get upgraded to a better seat they have a middle seat blocked w a table. See pic. . I booked one way tickets on spirit in 2024 for $21 per person from Chicago to NYC (ORD to LGA). Can't beat that.
