"Do not fly this airline"

(United States)

Not Verified | Our flight from Dallas Fort-Worth to Las Vegas was delayed by an hour and fifteen minutes. We boarded the plane on time, but the rude agent was hustling the passengers along like a herd of cattle and was very rude. My companion and I were told we would be seated in emergency exit seats and asked if that was okay. Both my companion and I responded yes, but the agent looked at my friend of Mexican descent (and speaks very good English) and had the audacity to look at him and say, “do you even speak English?” He had clearly responded to this woman when I did and accepting the responsibility of sitting at an exit seat. It was a one word response and she couldn’t understand him? The fact is, it was she that was difficult to understand because she speaking so fast and not enunciating. On top of that, we enter the very cramped plane with no leg room only to sit on the tarmac for another hour and a half! Also, this airline is not at all well staffed. It was so weird seeing a ticket agent (or whatever she was) the directing the plane out to the runway. Now, we are awaiting our return flight to DFW and the plane is again delayed by approximately an hour and a half. Do not fly this airline! If this were the only airline flying, I would choose the drive to my destination than take this airline. Yes, I’m completely serious.

"Horrible horrible service"

(United States)

Not Verified | Minneapolis to New Orleans. This is the worst airline I have ever used and would not recommend it to anyone. Our flight was delayed two hours on the way to our destination and two hours on the way home without an explanation. My son came in tonight from Colorado and his flight was delayed three hours. Again without an explanation. Very expensive to check a bag. Flight crew was not friendly. Horrible horrible service. Do not fly with Sun Country Airlines.

"attendants were bossy rude"

(United States)

Not Verified | San Francisco to Minneapolis. Flight attendants were bossy rude. Made a comment to another passenger and flight attendant overheard our conversation and she quickly spouted off in a snotty tone “Just doing my job”. Also hot warm beverages on the flight! Have never known an airline to not have coffee. For being over staffed with flight attendants, you would think coffee could have been available and staff wouldn’t be so snippy or overworked. Flight 396. It appears that Sun Country service has declined and we have been loyal to this airline for years. For future travels, we’ll be flying a different airline and we’ll recommend to others to do the same.

"Worst airline we have flown"

(United States)

Trip Verified | Worst airline we have flown. Baggage fees charged were higher than what is posted online, usb charger and in flight WiFi did not work, flight was delayed over an hour and horrible service from flight attendants. Will not use Sun Country Airlines again and do Not recommend it. I sent a detailed message about the multiple problems we experienced on our first flight with SC. They offered us a $10 voucher on a future flight- insulting to say the least.

"forced to pay $40 each"

(United States)

Not Verified | Portland to San Diego. The staff at airport was very rude. Both of my friend and I carried a backpack which we always use when traveling. But we were forced to pay $40 each. This is a ridiculous because the bag packs are always used and never be charged by any other airline! I will never fly this airline again, the flight was delayed again and again.

"pay $80 for our backpacks"

(United States)

Trip Verified | Portland to San Diego. My boyfriend and I checked in a suitcase so we only each had a backpack as carry on luggage. We have fly to many destinations with these backpacks and never had a problem. But the staff at Portland airport forced us to pay $80 for our backpacks. Otherwise they blocked us from entering the gate. This was a total rip off. It was my first time flying Sun Country and I will never fly it again!

"I couldn’t check in"

(United States)

Not Verified | I went to check in online and the continue button wouldn’t work. I tried downloading their app and got a “this isn’t available in your country” message. Then, I went to the airport hours ahead of my 2.5 hours delayed flight. Because I couldn’t check in, I had no boarding pass and couldn’t get through security. I called sun country, and the website I booked with, and the airport operator - no one could do the simple act of sending me or printing me a boarding pass. And Sun Country at the counter? Nowhere in sight! I rebooted and now they’re saying I’m a “standby” - even though I rebooked with them over the phone some hours ago!

"found no one at the desk"

(United States)

Trip Verified | Nashville to Minneapolis St-Paul. We arrived at the airport for our flight. Went to go check our luggage and found no one at the desk, no signage telling us where someone might be or how to get ahold of anyone. We waited for about 20 minutes. During that time, there were multiple employees that walked into and out of the sun country office behind the desk. Seeing us along with a few others waiting in line to be acknowledged. Not one word was said to us, come to find out from another person flying on our flight that they don’t open the gate until a certain time before the flight. This is ridiculous. One of the employees could of at least told us this information so we didn’t waste time standing there and being ignored. Worst experience with customer service I have seen.

Sun Country Airlines customer review

(United States)

Trip Verified | Austin to Gulf Port via Ft Myers. I have never heard of paying for a bag on each leg of a one way flight. This should be disclosed when you purchase the ticket. I will never fly on this airline again.

"refused to exchange my ticket"

(United States)

Trip Verified | This airline refused to exchange my ticket home and forced me to purchase a new ticket at $600 to fly home to see my mother before she died last week! And then they sold my seat for my original flight also to another person so they got double the money on that seat. Talk about a company that is heartless and just in it for the money. And their counters are not covered by agents most of the day. I waited at the Orlando airport for 6 hours to talk to an agent to get on their next flight. And after telling her it should only be an exchange fee per 3 phone calls to their customer service line, their counter agent actually said to me “well that’s not my problem” and said I had to purchase a new ticket at $600 or not be on the flight! At one point she actually told me to step aside so she could help the next customer. Their website also states it should be it just an exchange fee. When I showed the website to the ticket agent she said it doesn’t matter we can charge whatever we want. The most Horrible experience with customer service I have ever had with an airline. So hugely disappointed with this airline.
