Flight from Munich to O’Hare was great but it was on Lufthansa, a UA partner. It had more legroom than United, seat slid forward to make reclining more comfortable, they offered free drinks. United offered none of this. Oh and the food was superior to United’s which honestly, sucked.
It was very good. the food was varied and tasty, the movie was the same, maybe I would recommend changing the movie selection every month because my flight to Amsterdam was in September and I came back from Munich en October they are flights so long and we need something to see. But however I liked flying with United
premium economy is expensive but worth it for the comfort and food on a long flight
We couldn’t take the direct flight back home in Florida because the flight in Palermo was delayed flor long time and keep us inside the cabin without moving the plane. The plane from Munich to Orlando was still there when we arrived to the gate but they said it was late for us to board the plane. We rushed the most to get there. It was a bad experience and got back exhausted and with pain in all muy body. We are seniors 72 and for us was very bad
Seats are complete BS for 10 hrs. The guy at counter canceled our return flight from europe. Lufthansa on the way back made United look like a trailer park gathering. If given the opportunity, I will never fly united again. Lufthansa seats werent much better to be fair but the service was a 10 out of 10. Incant express how difficult umited made my trip.
The flight was canceled. I couldn't get on another flight. Meal voucher wouldn't work. The whole experience was a clusterfuck.
Food was not great. Small seating area for business class
I missed my flight and had to buy new tickets Rome- Boston
Crew was great! Good meals. Had room to stretch out
Horrible, absolutely horrible. The airline overbooked the flight, did NOT assign seats and boarding was a hot mess with lots of confused passengers. There was no "large plane" gate for us, the 500+ passengers were squeezed in a small hold room area, and multiple busses had to shuttle us to the other side of the airfield, where boarding of the plane, that was parked on the ramp, took place in rain. The old plane had a broken seat, that the technicians tried to fix - with no success - resulting in a 50min delay. The flight attendant with heart shaped earnings with German flag was screaming on the passengers without a reason, was extremely rude and entitled the entire flight. The food was junk. I hope I don't have to fly United ever again.
I really liked that the pilot stay Ed touch with us during the flight, about bumpy weather coming up & during it. He spoke slowly enough we could hear him & it was comforting. The flight attendants had to take their seats a couple of times so it was nice to hear the pilot. The flight attendants were amazing. They all seem to work well together and to have good spirits when dealing with us. Much appreciated.
Better to not serve food if those are the options
Better entertainment & food options more may be adding chicken option or on vegetarian side good quality pasta
The crew was extremely supportive and helpful for my mother that needed wheelchair support.
There was nothing wrong with the handling of the flight MUC - YYZ - the crew, from the cockpit down, just did there job, nothing more! What a sharp contrast to the crew, from the gate to the flight itself on the flight YYZ-SJO- you could tell, they liked their job and it showed - nothing extraordinary - the just created a pleasant atmosphere
Liked having internet over the ocean. Arriving meal was not sufficient.
I personally rather pay a little more for direct or direct layover flights when flying overseas. As in the past, I booked with Lufthansa/Air Canada, with whom I never had a negative experience, and unknowingly ended up with Discover Airlines, “the new leisure airline from the Lufthansa Group” ( as quoted in Lufthansa website). Had to pay extra for check-in luggage (first time ever, flying overseas with Air Canada and/or Lufthansa). Also had to pay for alcoholic beverages ( another first ). Seating was very tight and therefore rather uncomfortable. Entertainment and food was good. For above mentioned reasons, I will try to avoid flying with Discover Airlines in the future.
Worse. My luggage was carried on another flight, I was never advised that and had to wait 4 long hours to get my luggage at Pearson. The first flight was delayed, the layover at Munich was extremely short. I almost missed my second flight. Air Canada + Germans was not a good combo. I'm done with Air Canada, will never fly with them
Worst experience ever! Will NEVER use Kayak or Air Canada again!
Lufthansa canceled flights 8/17 (3:45pmLufthansa 412 from MUC to Newark EWR)and removed them from airport info displays or past flight records as never existed That is fraud--- so it cannot be documented and refunded-after thousand of passengers were kept in a plane for 3 h and then abandoned them in Munich on 8/17 without any rescheduled flights or hotels accommodation -they try to get rid of them by sending them to air Canada or other airlines to get out of airport-rude /Nazi style customer service-intentionally left Lufthansa desk unattended by staff even thousand were standing on line for hotel vouchers that they never got. I have video and pictures I was forced to pay for taxi-double ways -hotel room and another ticket with another airline to be able to leave MUC after 24 h Lufthansa had no solution for that flight cancelation that by law they must reschedule or bring another extra plain to serve the passengers that paid the trip I documented this fiasco abuse and will be reported to USA dept of transportation and Fl customer service our state representative -my family will never use Germany as a flight option
I didn't like anything about this flight. The only reason anyone drinks Jack is because you ran out of Woodford. You should know to stock more Woodford. When you wait of first class hand and foot from the minute they get on the plane 5 feet from me but then start service from the rear of the plane so main cabin plus gets the scraps, that's how you get people to stop flying your airline.
The flight was normal, until it wasn't. I fell asleep after boarding, woke up still on the ground, the flight couldn't leave the gate due to mechanical issues, including a/c failure. The air felt thin, similar to high altitudes, not sure if that's why I fell asleep but it happened to the passenger next to me too. They hooked us up to external air but it didn't seem to help much. They finally decided to deboard us after nearly 2 1/2 hours. We reboarded about 45 minutes later and landed about 3 hours 15 minutes late. Some passengers got water or something but I was never offered either. Honestly, with that big of a delay, they should have provided full service to make sure their sweating passengers had fluids. Yes, it was a typical over 90 degree day in Texas. The lady in front of me said she was getting a heat rash. It was rough . . .
Flight was delayed and so much of inconvenience related to the gate change.
Flight was smooth and on time: however, this flight was filled with advertising. We got it over the speaker system both when we took off and when we landed. Flight attendants were handing out sales flyers when we landed. It was not a good look.
The flight was delayed almost three hours. I understand delays happen from time to time, but this flight was delayed no less than 10 times. I wish the amount of time of the delay was more accurate, versus delaying in 10 or 20 minute increments many, many times.
Delayed by 5 hours and I had to wit in the airport for more than 6+ hours.
technology worked well and everything ran smoothly. The seats are quite cramped so please don't try to re-engineer the cabin to squeeze more bodies on board.
Flying in the United States with the major airlines has become so underwhelming. A 2-3hr flight in most other parts of the world with the major carriers of the area comes with newer, CLEANER aircraft and significantly better in flight service in terms of both staff attitude and a actual meal service.
Delays experienced in boarding/take off due to incoming plane delayed. However, the boarding time/depart time in the app was significantly delayed in providing these updates. Usually not updated until an hour after we should have already boarded. Poorly managed.
Arrived early picked up my bag in a few minutes- great trip - thank you
Flight was ok but the food was poor, and the business chairs were not comfortable.
Great experience in Saga Premium. Food was tasty and felt fresh. Seat was comfortable (enough) - would have wanted a layflat seat.
The flight itself was excellent, but getting to the plane was literally an exercise in pain. My wife needs a wheelchair and can only stand/walk for short periods before having extreme pain. We had to take a bus to a loading platform and use a terrible elevator to get up to the plane. Meanwhile the rest of the bus were using the stairs. This meant the people who needed to sit down were stuck standing at the end of the line while everyone else boarded. My wife was in agony.
It was amazing. I sat in First Class as a Saga Premium member, and my service was top notch. It was wonderful. I only recently joined Saga Club since I do travel to Scandinavia often and enjoy flying through Reykjavik on Iceland Air versus other ways of travelling to Europe. This was my first trip sitting in first class, which I honestly wasn’t expecting!
There were no places to sit at the gate. Most people had to sit on the floor or stand waiting for the gate to open and board. We were told we needed passport and the person hardly looked at them. Maybe for 2 seconds. No announcement made asking to board by row or group. On a 5.5 hour flight the crew only came through the cabin 2 times offering water and buy everything else. For the price of the ticket at least offer free soda! The airliner was very comfortable
Crew was wonderful. I knew going in that the seats were not lie-flat in business class, but they reclined less than I expected. To save on waste, you have to ask for which pieces of the amenity kit you are interested in, which they will gladly give to you. Flight was fairly short, so no issues. I did have one piece of luggage not show up at terminal on landing. They were great about looking for it. Found it...it actually did make the flight and was listed as "not picked up" (?????--we stayed over an hour looking for it, including in the odd-sized baggage claim.) Since "not picked up" they will not ship to my house and I have to go back to airport, which is in another town. I probably could have pressed this issue, but headed back to airport for another flight anyway, so will pick up then.
It didn't happen. Icelandair cancelled the flight from Nuuk, Greenland to Reykjavik, Iceland so I couldn't fly to Portland. Additionally Icelandair rebooked me on a flight that got cancelled too.
How can the airline deploy the oldest 757-200 with a broken down entertainment system and no WiFi for a cross Atlantic 7:50 hr torture chamber experience?? My seat 3A couldn’t be reclined. The footrest was flimsy and useless. And there’s no leg support unlike their newer 737-Max which they lavish on intra-Europe routes. Shame!!
I’m considering never flying with Iceland Air again. The seats in economy are torture. Now you only get water, coffee and tea for free- really? No food, not a single peanut. The passport line was insane, everyone was worried about catching their connecting flight. This was the third time I’ve barely made my connection, had to run. It can’t be that my choice is to use the bathroom (during the 50 minutes between flights) or make my flight. SO stressful! Ugh.
No meals included on this long international flight. Most airlines will offer you a meal when flying internationally. Not Icelandair. Your included choices are water and coffee. Poor customer service. The airport was also very confusing.
Such a comfortable flight! Food was yummy and staff was very friendly! Will absolutely fly Lufthansa again.
There was a stewardess walking up and down and keep spraying room refreshner on people heads and faces. I had to bread this and smell like a room freshener afterwards not to mention was keep falling on my face. It was terrible.
Economy plus on a long flight with Lufthansa was wonderful. Service starts with a pillow, blanket, slippers and care package waiting on your seat. An it just gets better from there.
Loved the towel at the end. Service was frequent and perfect.
Horrible. Would not assist w hotel or new flights when Catania leg canceled
Cheapflights did not forward the payment for seat assignments, and my partner and I were separated and given center (B and E) seats. Will be requesting a refund.
The entertainment system was not working, they tried restarting it couple of times but it did not fix it. We were told to contact Lufthansa costumer service after the flight for some kind of reimbursement. When costumer service was contacted I was told no reimbursement for entertainment system malfunction per policy.
The seats on Lufthansa’s international business class on the A350-900 is the worst product in the market. Our chief purser was AMAZING though. She is the best FA I have had in many years.
Very comfortable plane. The food was very good (for airplane food). The crew was great
I liked the flight, the attendants, and the comfort. But the gate for boarding was poor. Even the elderly had to climb down many many steps to the bus and climb up to the plane.
