"What a joke"

(United States)

Trip Verified | I fly a decent amount. This is my first time flying American Airlines and will probably be my last. I flew from SLC to Dallas and it was delayed many hours and caused me to miss my other connecting flight. I got over it. Now I’m flying back to Salt lake and it’s 2 weeks ago and of course, another delay! Kind of pathetic that literally both of my flights have been delayed. Not just one. Safe to say I will never be flying with American Airlines because they’re 2 for 2 for long delays. This has caused extreme problems and anxiety due to work meetings. What a joke. American Airlines is well known for their delays and I gave them a chance. They failed miserably. Fly any other airline than American.

"worst customer service ever"

(United States)

Trip Verified | Phoenix to Charlotte. The worst customer service ever! When I checked in there was no line however I was acknowledged by, “where are you going?” No, good morning even after I said it. Then she proceeded to check me in smacking her lips and hugging as if I was being bothersome by checking in. Instead of asking, “May I see your ID.” She says do you even have an ID. A women she was not checking in with she began to argue with saying, “lady we can’t do anything, if you want something you’re just gonna have to wait until 3 am that all I have for you.” Not polite. Ruining the brand name.

"Very unprofessional"

(Netherlands)

Trip Verified | I was booked to fly from Pittsburgh to Amsterdam via Philadelphia. Once landed in Philadelphia, the flight to Amsterdam was cancelled. The employees were totally not helpful and not giving any direction. Finally one of them said that we had to go to the customer service. Once there, we had to wait like 2 hours in a huge queue. Disaster. The customer service agent booked a ticket for us via Dublin. We had to wait 6 hours longer. Once we asked the customer service agent the reason of cancellation the given answer was: I dont know, i just get 8 dollars per hour. They don’t share this kind of information with me. Very unprofessional.

"Horrible customer service"

(United States)

Trip Verified | . Little Rock to Washington DC. Horrible customer service, waited an hour and a half to check my bag in. Missed my flight and they told me to go the back of the line to get my flight rescheduled. There were 5 people working to check people in and 2 of them left never to be seen again. I was told to wait on their manager and waited another 30 minutes and the manager never came. This will be the last time that I fly American Airlines.

"the employees were rude"

(United States)

Trip Verified | We wanted to change our seats and check in online but it wouldn’t let us. Got to the airport and still wasn’t able to change our seats due to technical issues after waiting for them to try to figure it out for an hour and a half we told them we have to go through security and left. When we got on board the flight my screen didn’t work and I told the flight attendant she was very rude and just nodded. Told her a few more times she rest a few times and still didn’t work. We asked another attendant and she rest it a couple more times and still didn’t work. They didn’t do anything else about it. So I got WiFi and that didn’t work well either after paying $19 couldn’t listen to music or watch anything. All the employees were rude. The last time we fly on American Airlines.

"they went above and beyond"

(United States)

Trip Verified | Reno to Los Angeles. We recently had to fly out for a death of a family member. American Airlines staff were so helpful with my elderly mother and our flight mix up from Expedia (who were not helpful at all). I will recommend American Airlines to everyone, they went above and beyond in our eyes, they were wonderful and thoughtful of our situation. Thank you

"rude and very disrespectful"

(United States)

Trip Verified | Raleigh to Miami. I came to the airport at 10:30 flight scheduled to leave at 12:03 which was delayed until 12:20. The supervisor was very rude. She wasn’t trying to help us at all. The lady in charge stated that our seats was given to someone else which is ridiculous when my flight has been booked for months. It’s very unfair to people that have waited for 2 hours and still don’t get to get on your correct flight. I was put on standby then that may not even help because this flight is full also. Which only leave a flight for early in the morning and I have already paid for my Room and everything ! I will never recommend anyone to fly American Airlines because they do not know how to treat people. They are rude and very disrespectful. The supervisor never apologized or even ask If we were okay. I am very upset. I have been sitting at the airport for 7 hours and I don’t even know if I will be able to board at 7:30.

"first and last time"

(United States)

Trip Verified | Charlotte to Pittsburgh. My first flight was freezing with no blankets. Then my final flight was delayed 4 hours! After I had gotten up at 2AM. Ironically, I had actually tried to change this flight a week earlier and they told me it would cost me $200 + a $50 service fee. Then they change the flight at the very last minute and I get zero compensation. How is this fair? I've flown around 20 trips, this is the first and last time I will use AA. Never had these issues with other airlines.
