Great to have economy + on JAL. Economy + has their own designated check in. You are also able to use their lounge which is very relaxing. There is food, desserts and drinks available as well. The seats on the plane don’t recline very much and the isle way is narrow when you need to use the restroom. The food was just ok, typical airplane food taste. The stewardesses were very nice and helpful. Two meals were provided, and the last meal was a fish sandwich. Too bad I don’t eat seafood. The smell of fish was not a welcoming odor in a confined airplane. Overall, I would recommend JAL, (LAX to Tokyo)
Crew was mediocre. Food was okay. Ground crew was terrible.
They moved my seat without my consent and they won’t refund the money I spent on it. I paid for a front row aisle seat and they moved me to a center seat in the last row of premium economy. They were very rude about everything and nothing like Singapore Airlines or Korean Airways which I flown before.
My experience with KAYAK was an absolute nightmare!!! I will never use your stinking company again, and I have been spreading the word. You stole over $1,000 from me. For the rest of my life, I will always steer people away from your dirty company.
Communication about delays was not very good. Crew and staff were excellent!
SAN-NRT was excellent experience with crew helping and assisting in all aspects of comfort. But NRT-BAN was not that comfortable with no blankets and pillows provided and treating it more like premier economy class. This has been the pattern I have observed where JAL uses non-trained crew, uncomfortable seats, restrooms not working, locking up window seats, business class comforts taken away on NRT-BAN route. Overall quality of service goes downhill on NRT-BAN flight. Not sure why?
I had a hard time checking in as my first and middle names lacked a space. The vendor spent a long time fixing it with the JAL. This should not have been a problem. Check in at ohare was good as Regina was very helpful and kind.
Dreamliner is an excellent aircraft. Great seats in business. Flight attendant Alex had a bored, sullen attitude in serving customers. Difficult to get his attention and very slow to respond to a simple request for water. Spoiled the experience a bit as the AA motto is “we’re here because of you”. Attitude needs some adjustment!
The best part was the staff. They are kind and gracious and made it a good flight.
Reasonable price, great service, highly recommended. i arrived well rested!
Ana business is worth it. Comfort, food and crew were excellent. Long haul but made it just a matter of time. Not sure how they can speed it up.
Paid for seat assignments that did not in any way match seats received, and had to upgrade at checkin
All was great on flight to Tokyo. The ROOM setup was very comfortable. Definitely will try to do again.
I thought I purchased premium economy but got an economy seating for an expensive airfare from Kayak. Not able to pay extra to upgrade at all
On time, food was great. Didn’t wake me up when they saw me sleeping and as soon as I used the toilet, they came up and asked me if I wanted dinner. Right on!
Though the flights to and from Tokyo were the longest (and some foods I found a little bit unappetising, but some I liked), and Osaka to Tokyo was very short (therefore no food or entertainment), I kinda enjoyed them and might use them again if I go to Japan again at some point in the future
Very nice staff and very good choices for food and drinks.
The flight took off at 10pm in Singapore (which is not an issue). However, the breakfast was served at 2:00am Singapore time to ETA of 5am SG time. Hence, it was difficult to get much of rest or sleep during the flight.
I was expecting to fly in a Japanese airline because that what I bought, very disappointed finding out the change of airline without any explanation.
The stewardesses were excellent! The food and service were great. I will definitely fly ANA in the future.
The friendliness of the attendants, and the quality of the service.
Food was terrible , uncomfortable seats, WiFi did not work, will never fly Singapore again.
They ran out of the second choice of food was stuck with fish
Service was top notch and the attention to passengers is great. Takeoff and landing was on schedule. Food selection is good
The usual excellent experience with Singapore Airlines. The airplane was on time and actually early to Haneda Airport. The onboarding experience was pleasant with no delays, perhaps owing to the fact that the flight was not full. Nevertheless, the air crew were their usual outstanding standards in serving the passengers.
Very good flight from Boarding to landing -efficient and comfortable with decent entertainment options
Overall, very good. The food was better than expected with the exception of the pork and potatoes dinner at the end of the flight. My family all selected that dish and did not set it. I tried a bite also and it was honestly terrible. Also, it would be helpful to know when the snacks in the back of the plane are available.
The crew and their service was top notch, but the plane itself seemed to be on the older side and worn out. Also, the food could’ve been better. 9 out of 10.
It was a middle of the night changeover, so we were all ready for sleep. Staff were helpful and managed a few hours sleep. Food options were good.
Excellent- a lot of food Disappointed with the premium economy pouch- did not have toothbrush and tooth paste or socks. Other airlines provide them
Boarding was too soon because we arrived 10’ after boarding began and they were already giving ‘final call’. We just made it. We were at gate 35 minutes before the flight. Also, the departure communication board did not list the flight at all so we didn’t know boarding had already started.
flight departure was late, with no updates on status of departure
This was our fourth domestic flight with Vietnam Airlines, and once again we found the experience very suitable. Check-in was easy and efficient. They did take our carry-on luggage, but that was fine. I’m actually happy not to deal with it on such a short flight. The flight was just over an hour, departed on time, and we climbed above the clouds into a beautiful sunset. Even on such a short flight, they served water, which we appreciated. Luggage came out into carousel in Nha Trang in good time and off we went to meet our GRAB. Also, Vietnam Airlines have easy to locate ground level offices in cities and towns where you can get assistance with staff. I liked this service as we did go visit one in Nha Trang. We would definitely recommend Vietnam Airlines and wouldn’t hesitate to fly with them again.
This is a very short commuter flight, so there is no food or flight entertainment. Hence, I marked it in the neutral flight left on time. The plane was full pretty much and it was a pretty easy flight overall very good.
Very good flight and very kind crew Only thing is I wish there would be a vegetarian option for the meals
Overall very nice airline. The seats were cloth unlike leather seats I am accustom to on planes. The food was adequate. I had to use a paper boarding pass as they do not like electronic boarding passes. I scanned my electronic pass, but the gate agent requested the paper pass. Luckily I had a paper pass, although my electronic pass worked and when the paper pass was scanned it stated I was already on board.
The plane had a technical problem it would delayed 10 hours but they just gave limited information and put all passengers into the Miracle lounge. Ther were not enough chairs and so on.
Ensure there is a choice of food for all customers and also enough food
Technical problems checking in. Had to wait a long time while they got things ready.
The most attentive crew and although we were a little late leaving ( missing passenger) flight experience more than compensated . Best flight attendants I have flown with in 50 years !!
They need to take training from emirates or Singapore airlines, it’s premium in pricing but poor in standards
Although I am a lifetime Gold Premier member on another airline association, I was placed in a inside passenger seat on both legs of my journey from SFO to HKG and onward to NRT. However, i was lucky enough to have befriended two other passengers (who were related) in my row (row 62) and therefore was kept entertained with conversation for a large portion of the overnight flight from SFO to HKG. Normally, on a Star Alliance carrier, I typically can have the seat of my choice (aisle seat) and also a Premier seat (wider and longer legroom). I was a bit disappointed that no recognition of my Gold Premier status was acknowledged by Cathay Pacific on either of my flights on Sept 26-27. The food was actually very tasty unlike the typical economy class menu. Also I appreciated that the dinner drinks were served first (prior) to the main meal on the HKG to NRT portion of my flights but drinks were served AFTER the meal had been distributed (less appealing for thirsty passengers). I was happily that there appeared to have ample cabin space for most everyone's bags ---although I did have to pay more than $400 in extra baggage fees as I had brought 4 bags with me Overall, I was impressed by the diligence and professionalism of the flight crew.
This review is based on other Asian airlines I used in the past year. Food going to Malaysia was bland and unappealing. Food coming from Malaysia back to the US was much, much better - tastier. Economy seats were not as spacious as the Airbus planes. Coming back from HKG, we were on a new Boeing plane and seats were very narrow, hard and extremely uncomfortable despite the fact we sat in the exit row. No offers for water in between meals though available in the galley. No garbage pickup. Movies were limited. All in all, flying Cathay seemed like flying a budget airline. Crew was pleasant and accommodating.
The legroom in economy on an A321 is wholly inadequate for a 6’3” man. Deeply dissatisfied.
There could have been more options on the entertainment section Nothing was available for non English speaking passengers
I wear hearing aids in both ears the infotainment system is hard to hear.
They downgraded me from premium economy to regular economy and me had 2 major lay over and had to have an emergency landing due to engine failure mid flight Don’t use them worst experience I have ever had still dealing with the trauma
Great entertainment system, the seat is a bit old style needs refurbishment
Boarding at the airport was not well managed. Otherwise, had a good flight sitting in the first row (which I paid for). Crew was pretty friendly, and flight was smooth.
Seats were very comfortable. Crew were excellent. Food very good.
