I’ve never heard of discover airlines but will definitely be on the lookout for future flights. Everything about the trip was perfect. The staff were exceedingly friendly and helpful. The only critique; there was a delay and gate change and this fact was NOT well published! My eTicket was NEVER updated with the new flight details. We ran the whole way from our connecting flight only to find that our flight was delayed. Very frustrating. Additionally, there was NO announcement regarding the root cause of the delay. The uncertainty about the cause of the delay contributes to the overall frustration. One other small matter onboard; one of the toilets was unavailable (or perhaps malfunctioning) and NO explanation was given nor was any workaround explained. It would have been less frustrating if they announced why the toilet was lock and explained the alternatives in detail. That way the foot traffic congestion could have been minimized.
Basically a low cost airline, with very small seats, mediocre food and staff not particularly nice. Not a pleasant flight
Plane was old and small. Crew was not very friendly and didn’t check in much or offer water more than 2 times over a 8 hour flight.
We were on a full-service fare as part of a long-haul trip so it was disappointing to be on such a no-frills flight (no meals/hot drinks/entertainment) especially for a 3.5hr flight, at the start of a long trip. The crew however we’re lovely & friendly.
Ethiopian Air was fantastic, very professional and polite staff with excellent service, on-time flight and a new aircraft.
Everything was great, the infotainment system was glitching but this was not a big deal.
The hygiene was super bad. Smells bad and air refreshment is highly advisable. The crew made some one else sit in my spot and no one is checking seat number and people are jumping to sit on other people’s allocated seat.
Terrible customer service I lost my bag luggage and I still haven’t received any information
The ailine departed and arrived late foe every leg of the trip, causing myself and my travel companions to miss every connecting flight. It was very unorganized given theat there was a lot of miscommunication. The flights offered are unrealistic and when you call they assure you that the plane waits for you. I missed an. entire day of my vacation and any entire day of rest back home because of the airline. I do not plan to support the airline again. Thank you
There where no ear phones provided and the food needs to improve.
1. They messed up my baby food order. 2. They messed up my confirmed seats. 3. The screen on my seat was not working at all. So, it’s a horrible experience
Bathrooms were absolutely atrocious. Absolutely third world. Unusable. From non-flushing toilets to poor maintenance - missing toilet paper, dirty with mess, etc. Horrifying. Does Ethiopian Airways expect customers to clean the bathroom before use. For sure inconsiderate passengers don't do anything to clear/clean after use.
The food really sucks And they really need to work on entertainment The movie selection is herendous .
The seats were quite uncomfortable despite having good legroom. The 350s are quite nice but the problem is on the old 777 aircraft. Special meal requests are not catered for as they should. They never had any ice for drinks.
Boarding was a little chaotic. United checkin staff was truly excellent and saved the day for me. Food was great. Comfort so so. Flight was good
I had paid for an emergency exit on my flight from Tel Aviv to Frankfurt. After arriving at the desk to drop off my bag, I was told by the Lufthansa employee how my seats were so great. Then asked me if I was ok sitting by the emergency exit. And I replied "of course, that is why I paid the extra fee for the seat". After going through security I received a text message stating that my seat had been changed to 38A which is at the back of the plane. For no reason, I had lost my seat, and the money I paid for it. As I arrived at the gate, just a few minutes after receiving the text, I approached the airline personnel and was told there was nothing she can do because my seat had already been assigned to someone else and to write a complaint to the airline and ask for a refund. I told her this was unfair and did not solve the problem. I am a tall guy and the other seat was very uncomfortable, I had made sure to book on time, reserve the seat I wanted and pay on time. This was unacceptable.
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.
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.
No food available for purchase on a 2:30h flight around lunchtime… Lufthansa hand luggage policy and behaviour makes you feel you’re on Ryanair but paid three times as much
This was a "cattle car" flight loaded with the tightest seats I've ever flown internationally. I will try hard never to fly Discover Airlines again.
Everything was good. I had never heard about Discover airlines before. I was pleasantly surprized. They made everything easy. The pilot kept us very well informed and he was funny too. They boarded passengers from the front and back of the plane simultaneously.
I always like to travel with Discover Airlines because of their extraordinary services, comfort, and feel safe.
I realize you are charging less, bu charging for EVERYTHING? Blankets? It's things like this that will make people search for ANY alternative.
