    Check in and boarding was a nightmare in EWR but the actual flight overseas was incredible Love the lay down seats. Food and service was incredible

    Ooooo sooooo janky! Being a million miler has it perks. Not having to fly Janky planes is not one them.

    Come fly the janky skies. Deltas planes are newer but the seats thinner. Budget Airlines are newer but the crowd. Here at united you get the Comfort that only a well worn in plane can give you, like an old pair of jeans. The staff is generally nicer but these planes are 4/5 times flying beaters. Going to Newark for work good chance it's a nice plane. Going to Hawaii for your honeymoon. Probably a junker.

    This is a good United Airline location, flying into and out of Seattle. The flights going in/out of Seattle are always fall, but the process is a very efficient and I do not have a problem getting my bag or boarding/exiting the aircrafts. I will definitely flying in-and-out of Seattle's United Terminal again.

    This go around I was pretty satisfied with United. They sent my bag ahead of me thank god because my connection was 45 minutes. It stresses me out to have such a short connection. I was also excited when they gave me a stroopwafel! What a fun snack!

    They don't allow carry on bags on the plane UNLESS you pay $25-30 extra dollars to use the overhead bin. They charge $35 dollars for every checked...yeah, I said it....CHECKED luggage. You pay if you do and pay if you don't! Customer service with the kiosks was superb but unlike other airlines I have been on, they charge for everything. The app and kiosk are not up to date. They have upgraded seats available if you want to buy. The app showed us that our seats were picked out for us BUT if we wanted to sit in front, you had to pay $16-20-$30-47 dollars more. We had these tickets months in advance. We should have had our choice of seats then but "the automated computer" chose unsavory seats for us last minute. Oh, I want to add there are PLENTY of seats on this flight. I'm sitting right now "on a fully booked flight" with an extra seat beside me, behind me and I'm sitting in an extra seat! Do people travel without bags? Do they have their stuff shipped to their destination before they get there? I feel as though I've been robbed. American, Delta, Alaska and Southwest (20 years ago) would have never. I know where the money went. It went to pay all the bad actors for the safety brief. It must have cost them a fortune. Too bad it's not worth watching.

    My tiny personal item is all they allowed to bring onboard at United airlines
    Nata S.

    Any airline that we flew before allowed one carry on item and one personal item BUT NOT UNITED! They allow ONLY ONE personal item and that's it! They let me bring ONLY this tiny purse with me and they considered THIS personal item!! Unbelievable! I have no words on how disappointed i am right now with this flight. IM NEVER FLYING UNITED AIRLINES EVER AGAIN! They made us check in both of our carry on bags and charged $70 for it. So ridiculous! This company is all about ripping off people and not providing adequate customer service. Thank you UNITED! You lost me as a client

    I have had many flights over the years with United as well as most of the other domestic carriers and I have to say I have encounter issues along the way but if I dismiss the issues that are beyond the carriers control (weather, air traffic issues, airport issues, mechanical failure) just to name a few, United has had a pretty good track record compared to some of the others. They have always been proactive in dealing with any problems that I've encountered and has always been quick to provide me with options to resolve the issues in a fair and timely manner. I have been platinum elite or higher with United for many years and I can tell you from experience this airline is one of the best operating today. It's obvious that most of these negative reviews come from one incident and reflects the frustration of the ones involved. I have witnessed some of the events noted here and more times than not it turned out to be a misunderstanding on the customers part, believe me these carriers have a rule book and it pretty much covers every kind of problem a traveler can encounter with a protocol that addresses the issue, but in most case the customer doesn't like the solution and is filled with anxiety and over reacts because things don't turn out the way they think it should. I've found the best way to deal with these annoying situations is to take my seat in first class order a nice cocktail, put my head phones on and listen to some nice tunes and relax. I never expect the provider of any service to completely cater to my needs I plan out my own itinerary and destiny and let the chips fall where they may. Of course there's always room for improvement and I'm sure they will continue to strategize to increase their margins and as a stakeholder I'm okay with that...

    Flying with United is just exhausting. My first trip was a round trip FLL- CHI and it went well. In fact it was great - no complaints. Two stars for Glenn Coco. 10 months later, round trip FLL - SEA now I have to check in my carryon luggage and THEY DESTROYED IT. My heart is broken because I actually saved up for this luggage's and can't fathom what beast they had in the there with the bags. My connecting flight was 6hrs delayed over a fluid leak. Happy to not be on THAT plane. Thank you for catching that. NO THANK YOU however for not having a better plan in check for when this happens. Which I heard was a lot from your frequent flyers. My trip suffered from this flight as it took me a total of 20hrs to get from one city to the other. I got a meal voucher for $10 (while others got 2) and a $50 voucher for my next flight. I thought that was a joke until I had to change my return flight and the $50 came in handy. They also accepted my refund request for my original return flight which I needed to cancel. One extra star for Glenn Coco. You guys, the trip was originally $352 plus $60 (carry-on back to back) came to $412 this is without vouchers assuming the flight would've gone smoothly. American was $415 for the same route at the time and for saving a few dollars my whole trip was a mess. Be smart with your travels and note the hidden charges. SAVE YOUR LUGGAGE

We flew on miles and upgraded our seats to first class with cash. As a whole the flight was good and because we didn't have checked luggage, it was a breeze for us. Below is where the star rating was up and down. Customer Service via Phone or Chat: 2.5 Stars - needs major improvement. However, contacting customer service via phone can be frustrating due to long wait times or returning a call back. Also, I tried to communicate via their chat portal and if you don't answer within a timely manner (2 minutes), the AI Or person will disconnect with you. This happened on two occasions when I was trying to change flight date. I finally gave up. Flight - ATL -SEA 3.25 Stars The flight crew were pleasant and professional. However, AK has forgo the water at the seat in First class. We had to wait until most of the passengers were seated before we receive a cup of water. Our flight attendant was friendly, had a wonderful smile and professional but there were times, she waited a lot longer to pickup the finished drinks or meals. She seemed preoccupied with other duties. We weren't the only one that she forgot to bring drinks or pickup the dishes. Food: 3 Stars Breakfast was presented nicely and looked good. But the breakfast meal I had was ok. Though the meal was hot and it looked good, the ham was too salty and the potatoes had a little bit more Rosemary that I am use too. Coffee was so-so, so I requested my go-to drink of Cranberry juice. The other breakfast dish we had was the fruit and cheese tray. It tasted better than my egg, ham, potatoes dish. Both dishes were accompanied by fresh fruit and yogurt. SEA - ANC Food - 3.25 stars AK airlines famous cheese burger. The burger was good but nothing to write home about. Or am I? Served w chips, humid and veggies and chocolate cake. The humus was flavorful and hint of spicy to it. Cake was moist and had a deep chocolate flavor. To kick it up a notch, spread the humus to the burger instead of mayo or mustard. It made the burger more delicious! AK Airlines doesn't have IFE, but you could watch or text with their free WiFi. Also, there is $8 option. If you have a T-Mobile account then it is free. We flew on a 737-900 series. The first class seats were large and comfortable. After arrival to Seattle airport, we stopped by to talk w customer service agent. Cynthia (4 Stars) assisted us to see if we could change an our flight to ANC for an earlier flight. We had a 8 1/2 hour layover and we noticed there was an earlier flight. We were willing to seat in Premier or Coach instead of First Class. She contacted customer service phone line to get assistance. She thought because of our First Class seats, we would be able to chance the class seat but the person told her due we would have to exchange our first class for another set of first class seats on a different flight. The person couldn't downgrade us to a different class seat selection. Weird! She was surprised herself. We thanked for her assistance. So, I struck out on changing my flights (phone, chat, and physical person). So this where the overall rating is lower than expected. Addendum from SEA - ANC Our first class flight attendant was wonderful. Positive, lots of energy, professional and was very pleasant to talk to. Greeted us when we walked in, had our pre-departure drink within 10 minutes of be seated and had our preorder meals within the hour of the flight. She was delightful. Though the 737-9Max wasn't as clean as it should be. I brush off some crumbs from my seat and there were a couple of coffee stirrers on the floor near our seats. The first class seats are modern but not as cushy as the older seats in the 737-900 series plane. So, would I use them again? Probably, but strictly use mile or pay cash. I think using miles and cash made our flights more difficult to change.

To then be given Christine the hostile employee really ruined the end of our vacation. I hope this isn't in the training that Delta provides for employees on how to handle customers looking for other ways to get home. Christine is responsible for us considering other airlines when flying next time.

You will be pestered with emails suggesting to pay for this and that in advance to make your trip more pleasant or predictable. You MAY be asked to prove that your hand luggage fits in their size bins (there were two next to my gate with stern warnings, so you can try in advance). You CAN pay through the app in the airport if you need to convert your personal item into a carry-on but that will eat some of the savings. The seats do not tilt; because of that the seating area is actually wider and pant size 42 man comfortably fits with no intrusion to the neighboring space. IMHO 44 should fit too. Your flight crew WILL be nice and bottomless tea or coffee will be 4 bucks. The lavatory is, probably, not cleaned between the flights. I was first and the seat was already "sprinkled" and one of two rolls of toilet paper was already down to the bare core. Short delays are very common with Frontier (at least on LAX-SEA they are) but usually they recover most of it through the flight. My flight left 20 minutes late but arrived on-time. If you fly with just the "personal item" AKA small backpack 18x14x8", accept the toilet situation (I am not saying that they never clean, only that on my flight it was not - for sure), and OK with the need to walk / take a free shuttle from the gate to the airplane, you will save 35%. If you have carry on, you will save ~15%, and if you are flexible with your travel dates, you will fly half-price comparing to the major airlines. The caveat is the usual - no changes and no upgrades of anything.

Definitely made it a pleasant experience to change into pajamas without worrying about the "wet" floor.

Bag fees are tricky for me. If I have a short trip I don't need to pack a lot. No matter what you do, you do get a free personal item. That is really calling it too tight for comfort, IMO. So, for this last trip I did an upgrade on their website for $35 per way, per person ($140.00 total). My extra $140 got us assigned seating to sit next to my partner for both flights near the front of the plane for both legs. It also got both of us a free carry-on item each, both ways in addition to our personal item. More than enough for a 2-day trip! Considering the fact that, if you checked in a bag at the airport day of, it could cost you $65 per bag, per leg that feels like a great deal! I mean, even with the extra money my total ticket price is still under $200 each round trip. I can totally live with that! As for the flights themselves, it is still Spirit so keep your expectations reasonable (read:low). Both flights were delayed, but nothing too bad. Usual mix of some very nice employees and some mildly passive ones as well. Nothing too bad. Honestly, I can bitch all I want, but I know for the right price and a short enough trip I will use them again. 3 stars.

    ZERO stars. Spirit is unreal. First time flying with Spirit Airlines. Customer service at the check…read morein counter is not the greatest. You will pay an arm and a leg for baggage. Please update your baggage policy on the website, that would be courteous especially for active duty personnel. You get two free baggage but at the counter you are told to verify your ID at the time of purchasing.

    Turkish Airlines is a newer airline flying into Seattle as they only started nonstop flights to…read moreIstanbul in 2022. The airline is known for offering flights to the most destinations around the world. I flew on Turkish a few years ago from Seattle to Thessaloniki via Istanbul during spring break. For the most part, it was a good experience. The pluses are mostly with the in-flight experience. They use Dreamliner planes and serve tasty meals on all flights, including my short haul flights to and from Greece. The IFE system has extensive entertainment and they give all passengers an amenity bag on long haul flights. Lastly, the baggage allowance is generous as you can check in 2 bags. I do also want to bring up some items to consider booking on Turkish. My flight to Istanbul was nearly a hour late, but I still made my connection. Try not to book flights with short layovers. Also some of the connections have long layovers to destinations in the Middle East and Central Asia with flights arriving at odd hours. You may want to consider doing a stopover in Istanbul instead, which Turkish has a good program for. Lastly, gate security in Istanbul is extensive. So expect a thorough check of your carryon items before your flight. Overall, I enjoyed flying on Turkish. It is a well run airline with good fares to Europe and a great in-flight experience. However, you should consider travel time, especially layovers and the amount of backtracking needed to get to your destination when deciding whether to book.

    We flew Turkish Airlines from Madrid to Seattle in 2025, via Istanbul, and we had a great…read moreexperience. Our layover was long enough to be able to get to our next gate, and yet short enough to feel like we weren't wasting time. The flight was frankly luxurious compared to other long international flights. We flew to South America yearly for a while, and the economy experience on Turkish Airlines was like the Business Class experience on the unnamed airline to Montevideo. There were always two options for the meals. My wife was able to get gluten-free meals. The help staff was extremely friendly and helpful. It may well have been the best long flight experience in my life.

    Had amazing experience flying from Seattle to Helsinki to my home country Latvia with Finnair…read more Finnair expanded their flights and I was happy to see that I can fly trough Helsinki instead of Frankfurt to my home country out of Seattle because layover was shorter and it's also only 1 hour flight from Helsinki to Riga. Finnair partner up with British airways business lounge and it was very decent food and drinks (compare what I had with Lufthansa last year few celery sticks and a cookie). The lounge wasn't so big and one can hear some rude people speaking loud on their phones but it had a nice view of the runway. Our flight was on time and I was settling in my Business class seat after short boarding process. They welcomed me with the drink ( I choose their signature blueberry juice and Northern Blush cocktail -must try) and they also provide amenity kit (which was disappointing) It didn't had toothbrush or any socks, also their cream had very bad smell and texture. I hope they will improve that. The wireless phone charger didn't work for me because my phone has a case and it was not picking it up. Pillow blanket and pad were provided, also I noticed that I didn't got any slippers because when I was leaving the plane I saw many people had same slippers. Food was very good on the way there. I had for an appetizer crab meat with mayo mousse, caprese salad and nice piece of salmon with veggies. For dessert I had raspberry tart with tea. And plenty of blueberry juice- thats my favorite! (Unfortunately food on the way back wasn't great. They ran out of their signature drink Northern Blush at Helsinki which is Finnair hub!!! Smocked salmon on the way back was too salty and too smocked. Weird food options like shrimp quiche for breakfast or pork dinner which is not so appealing even to person that doesn't have any dietary restrictions. Both breakfast and dinner were bad, breakfast looked poor and tasted poor and dinner I couldn't even eat. Also why to serve cauliflower as a side on a long haul flights). Important to note seat doesn't recline but it lay flat! So you can't adjust it for a recliner like on other planes. Also belt is like in a car. But it didn't bothered me because I could adjust leg part of the seat but not the back. Entertainment was good and they had a lot of good new movies available. I wasn't bored at all! I watch Missis Harris goes to Paris (what an amazing inspirational movie) and The unbearable weight of massive talent. Bed was cozy and I had 4 h nap and woke up to breakfast. Hour and a half before landing in Helsinki they served us Breakfast which was very generous. It had cheese & ham, croissant, bread muffin, fruits, omelette, yogurt and mini jam. I was full and ready to spend 6 h layover at Helsinki! (Originally was 1h40m but then they changed it) Enjoyed my flight and definetely will consider again. Hopefully they will keep their good pricing compare to Swiss and Lufthansa!

I was a bit skeptical at first as I had originally booked with British Air, only to find out that the flights were operated by Finnair. Thankfully, there was clear communication regarding flight details once booked. Onboard, the cabin crew were exceptionally friendly and attentive, ensuring all passengers were comfortable.The meals served were well proportioned for "airline food." You must try their signature blueberry juice! There was a slight delay departing Seattle, but I had no issues with my connecting flight in Helsinki. All of my other flights took off on time, and we arrived a few minutes early each time. The only drawback is with luggage. My particular ticket was for carry-on luggage only. Finnair has a max combined weight of 8kg (~17.5 lbs), which can be difficult to meet with most suitcases. I used a light-weight travel backpack and just barely made the cutoff. Overall, Finnair exceeded my expectations, and I highly recommend them for anyone traveling from Seattle, WA to Vilnius, Lithuania. I will be flying with Finnair again!
