Airport closed until 8 PM. We had to wait to enter. KlLM 107 birthday so there was an unexplained ceremony for flight staff which delayed boarding. Flight was comfortable in business class but didn't have pods.
Other than the airline changing my aisle seat to a middle row, all else went well.
Ad experience - been flying many years with them but they are losing out to other carriers with their service and bagage / seating policy. My 2 12-yo kids were not placed with the parent. Absurdity.
KLM remains a quality flag carrier airline which maintains its standards whilst all their competitors are lowering theirs.
This portion of the flight was through Indigo. A local carrier. So all economy seating. No real service some refreshments for purchase standard economy stuff.
Delay, luggage didn’t arrive. Had to go the next day to collect it
The plane. Airbus A330-200. Comfortable for a 7-hour flight. Seats seemed to have more legroom. I was in row 17. Flight was operated by Delta but was better than expected.
The flight was again delayed for more then 2 hours with some lousy explanation regarding the reason of the delay. Although the flight was delayed for more than 2 hours, no refreshments were offered (according to EU regulations). Last 4 flights on KLM - always at least 2 hrs late. So be prepared that you cannot plan anything with KLM.
Mostly fine. Minor delays departing and arriving. Quite a cramped plane, not so much as regards legroom but very narrow seats. Quiet nice food. Non-working USB charger. Flight attendants were helpful but not particularly proactive — one had to work to get their attention (but all was fine once they notice you), very Dutch style:)
At the transit could be less time not like 12 hour 6 hours the mix should be 4 hour, thanks
Relatively good experience from the polite professionalism of ground and cabin crew to the efficient service on board. The quality of the food served was really good and the portions just right for the flight time.
Frankfurt airport customs for terminal Z is ridiculous. We've been through there twice. Each time we have stood in line too long, had a photos taken a total of 4 times, finger prints innumerable times. This was all suppose to make things faster. And having to do this even though our first flight was from an EU country was a waste of time and a great deal of frustration. It was better before.
There was stewardes who was walking up and down the alley and keep spraying room refresher on people heads. It was terrible. Not only was it keep filling on my face plus I smelled like a room refresher after all my all clothes.
The new buisness class pods are 100% worth it. Loved it.
Pretty bad. No welcome drink (the Lufthansa signature drink they advertised but did not serve). No 2 round of beverages. No coffee to end your meal. No snack before landing on an overseas flight. Mediocre everything and unattentive staff. Munich and Frankfurt as connecting flight airports are terribly big (20 min walk for transfer!) and confusing. Will not fly again.
Flight was delayed by 40min and when we eventually boarded, there was a mad scramble to save time. We were told no hand luggage would be accepted and it must be checked in. I was on a connect flight so wanted my hand luggage with me for the next flight. They were so rude at the gate and didn’t want to let me take my cabin-approved bag on board. I had to go buy a bag and transfer the essentials to take into the double connect flight. Once I was on board I saw there was ample space in overhead bins. I asked to go fetch my bag which was literally outside the aircraft in the walkway. That was not allowed. On board, Lufthansa is actually a low-cost airline for continental flights. Buy your own snacks. This surprised me because they are part of Star Alliance Airlines and on my domestic flight with SAA I received a drink and a snack box with sandwich and dried fruit on a 55min flight. The seat pitch on Lufthansa is also smaller than for the Middle Eastern and Asian airlines so comfort was not great for me who is 1,85cm tall. The third connection with SAA was a dream - friendly staff, quick and easy boarding and overall pleasant experience.
My girlfriend had a health emergency and couldn’t board the flight. I asked for a refund, but you only offered half of the purchase price as a refund. Very disappointing.
My first two flights were late. I missed my last flight. The next flight was not until the next day Seating on large plane was uncomfortable. In the center row, there are posts that do not allow you to spread your legs. The entertainment center did not respond well. . Food was okay. Though there was much confusion about where the special meals that. People ordered(not me) went
I got an email from Lufthansa saying that because the flight was full, I could check my cabin bag for free. When I tried to do that, I got charged $75 because it was 'overweight'. Other people who did not check their bags didn't get their bags (that were much larger than mine) weighed. Nor were they denied boarding. This is a scam, right? Expect to see this review EVERYWHERE!
All good. Boarding was on time and everything was well organized. The flight was on time so overall I had a good experience.
