Pretty good. There was a little bit of waiting for an assigned seat that was a bit nerve wracking but the people working there were very reassuring and I eventually got to board the plane after they coordinated which seat I would be in

Pretty good. There was a little bit of waiting for an assigned seat that was a bit nerve wracking but the people working there were very reassuring and I eventually got to board the plane after they coordinated which seat I would be in

We arrived almost 1/2 hour early at Burbank......we sat and waited for gate to open and then for stairs to arrive to deboard us. That took almost an hour. The flight was beautiful....the arrival at Burbank was frustrating.

It was an okay experience overall. But, I’m quite tall and sitting in those seats was horrific and so uncomfortable. The flight attendants were quite rude when enforcing the procedures for take off and landing.

Free wifi. Already pay a ridiculous fee for checking bags. With all those profits, snacks and entertainment should be better than 1990s

It was cancelled due to crew. I missed a special family graduation due to this

First class only upgrades seat width. The bottom cushion of the seat sloped forward so much that I was constantly sliding out of my seat. The meal was awful, granola and dried fruit? Seriously, for what I paid to upgrade? I can bring my own sawdust and rotten fruit for a whole lot less. Priority boarding is great except when you have a hundred economy passengers stranding in the aisle slamming you in the face with their enormous carry ons and smelly asses right under your nose. I want my money back for that leg of my trip. It wasn’t worth the money for such a minimal upgrade.

Liked premium seat. Did not like: having to pay for entertainment/wi-fi; having to pay for food; single-aisle; and, only three rest rooms.

The queue before check-in was long and slow moving due to too few desks being open. THEN, WHEN WE FINALLY REACHED THE CHECK-IN DESK WE WERE CHARGED US$70 FOR 2 BAGS. What rubbed salt into the wound was the incredible number of large bags in people’s “carry on”.

Plane was very cold, but other than that, it was a perfect flight

My baggage did not with me , which upset the item that were inside as gifts . Well over 24 hours .

It was pretty good I was worried with the short Layover that I might not catch my connection but the gate was there

There was plenty of overhead room but half of the passengers were told they had to check their carryon bags. My partner and I checked in as early as possible and our seats were split across the aisle.

Flight was late. Club was full. Experience is exactly what I expected.

Inflight entertainment stopped working as we taxi to runway and never worked again until landing and taxi to gate. Grrrr

The seat could use more support or cushion. I'm in my 50's and have back issues so the seats are a bit hard for longer flights.

Delta flight overall it was goodT!the crew could do more and the food could be better.

This flight was supposed to land at 10:55 pm on January 14th. Instead, it landed at 3:20 am on Monday, January 15th, resulting in a completely lost day due to not going to bed until 5:00 am.

Airline stewardess service is good. The check-in attendant had a bad attitude and was unprofessional. We did not complete the trip as originally planned. Very dissatisfied☹️

Crew was wonderful, very professional and pleasant. On time performance. Excellent flights,smooth. Thank you!

Fast boarding and exit. Different snacks other than almonds and sun chips.
