"not worth the anger and frustration"
Fabian Engelbertz (Germany)
✅ Trip Verified | Please never book a flight with this airline. I got stuck in Madrid with a group of 15 people that had all been overbooked. We were promised monetary compensation which I never received after months of dealing with customer support who simply sends out pre-written automatic emails. The few bucks saved are not worth the anger and frustration having to deal with their unprofessional service. I never write reviews, but after this experience I hope I can help somebody else not make my mistake again.

"We will never fly with Air Europa again"
Elad Alfia (Israel)
✅ Trip Verified | The worst flights we have ever had! There was nothing to eat or drink, the flight was dense and uncomfortable. We will never fly with Air Europa again. Oh! And I forgot the 3 hours line we waited in.

"annoying, inefficient, customer-unfriendly"
W van der Meij (Netherlands)
Not Verified | I went to Ibiza for a long weekend. My luggage did not arrive, at all. Communication about the status of lost luggage is poor. Service desk can hardly be reached, refuse to speak English, though I mentioned in the dial-menu that I was English speaking. My luggage never arrived, so my weekend was rather ruined. I filed a complaint with all my damages, notes, etc. Despite many calls, emails. even 4 months later I have not been reimburse whatsoever. Very annoying, inefficient, customer-unfriendly to their bones.

"experience at the front desk was very unpleasant"
S Largez (United Kingdom)
✅ Trip Verified | My experience at the front desk was very unpleasant. On our ticket it indicated Madrid T1 but the airport screens indicated T2. So we went to T2 where they told us that we had to board through T1. We went to T1 and there was no staff at the indicated number. So we went back to T2 indicating to the priority person that there were no personnel in the indicated place and once again the screen indicated that our check-in area was terminal 1. The priority person only went to check the airport screen when we took out the platinum for life card. What a shame really. Our first and only flight on Air Europa. Mi experiencia en el front desk fue muy desagradable. En nuestro ticket indicaba T1 pero las pantallas del aeropuerto indicaban T2. Asi que nos dirigimos al T2 donde nos indicaron que teniamos que abordar por el T1. Fuimos al T1 y no habia personal en la numero indicado. Asi que volvimos al T2 indicandole a la persona de priority que no habia personal en el lugar indicado y yna vez mas que la pantalla indicaba que nuestra area de cheking in era terminal 1. La persona de priority solamente fue a revisar la pantalla del aeropuerto cuando sacamos la tarjeta platinum for life. Que verguenza realmente. Nuestro primer y unico vuelo en Air Europa.

"One of the worst experiences ever"
Lucie Bezvodova (Czech Republic)
Not Verified | One of the worst experiences ever. Hardly anything included, had to buy even earphones and in March 2020 all flights cancelled for about 6 months so I paid nearly £2,000 to get back home with another airline. For another 12 months I couldn’t ask for a refund and now need to wait 6 months for the refund to be processed.

"No Customer Care whatsoever"
Max Bayer (Austria)
Not Verified | No Customer Care whatsoever, I booked a flight for my girlfriend, son and myself. Later on I realized that I would need to change the dates of my flight. I tried to call the airline to get a rate for changing my flight which turned out to be impossible. Calling the customer care number of Air Europa resulted in 5 calls of about 40 minutes waiting of which only one call got answered eventually. I was asked all the necessary details explaining my situation. Instead of helping me with changing my flight I was only transferred to another department and my call got hung up. I suspect on purpose. Calling again did not succeed, nobody answered the phone again. Also calling the airlines gate directly at the airport did not succeed, I was not attended. In the end I lost my flight receiving no compensation and had to buy a new flight for my new travel dates all due to the complete lack of customer care without any possibility to speak to a representative of Air Europe about my request. This is completely unprofessional and led to a very unprofessional experience.

"have waited more than 3 hours on hold"
S Deane (United States)
✅ Trip Verified | I haven't actually taken a flight with Air Europa because covid travel restrictions smashed my European travel plans. That being said I'm sitting on two round trip business class tickets that I need to cancel or get some type of future credit, but after trying 6 separate times to contact a customer service representative (phone, email, you name it) I am giving up. I have waited more than 3 hours on hold and have yet to have anyone answer. The support line says '24 hours' but on off hours you will just get a recording 'due to circumstances beyond our control, we cannot answer your call right now. Please try again in a few minutes'.

"absolutely no response"
Graham jenkins (United Kingdom)
Not Verified | I booked flights from Valencia to Palma but my computer auto filled the 2nd passenger name. Realised within a few hours and have spent the last week and a half trying to get this changed. Started out very promisingly response to tweet was DM us the correct name. But despite numerous DMs and tweets absolutely no response. To re-rebook the flight now is 50% more.

"Very disappointed!"
Reza Bamshad (United Kingdom)
✅ Trip Verified | I booked business because I wanted to use the priority boarding and also keep away from other people due to Covid. At Gatwick airport to get on the aircraft, there was no separate queue for priority boarding so we had to queue with everyone else not following the distance rule and some without masks. The business isn't worth the money you pay since you are treated the same as those in the economy. Very disappointed!

"Terrible experience"
Renan Sarcinelli (United Kingdom)
✅ Trip Verified | Terrible experience with this airline! Just arrived in São Paulo from Madrid and it was so far the worst transatlantic flight experience that I ever had! My flight was number UX57, arrived on 12/08/21 around 04:40 in the morning) and all the flight attendants were very rude all the time, having many arguments with several passengers. They served only one option of dinner (in a 10 hours flight) and when they were asked about other options of drinks apart from water they said that they don’t provide for covid reasons. So I asked for a second bottle of water and I was told that I could get more at the back of the plane (so I should cross the whole plane for more water despite we shouldn’t walk in the plane or use toilets that are not next to our seat for covid safety reasons). When I finally managed to go to the back, they gave me a small glass of warm water and that was all we could get. Many seats were empty and despite the fact I was seating in the middle of two other passengers that I was not travelling with, I couldn’t move seats because is a rule in the company to not move seats.
