"can't choose the seats"

(United States)

Verified Review | Minnesota to Portland. I bought tickets together with my wife. When I flew with her to Minnesota we sat next to each other but when I returned from Minnesota to Portland i can't choose the seats next to each other, I was told that no seat available next to each other so I have to sit at front and my wife have to stt at the back. But when the I got inside of the airplane there were a lot of two seats together left - even the seat next to me was emty, nobody sat next to me at all.

"great airline and good people"

(United States)

This is my first time flying on sun country. It's a great airline and good people hampered by a bad website and phone service. When booking my flight, I tried to do it 4 times online and each time I got up to where you pick your seats and then got an "an error has occurred". I was trying to book while traveling so I ended up having to call and waited an hour to book on the phone, by that time the price had gone up 100 dollars. Booking frustrations aside, everyone involved in the travel process was friendly, helpful and courteous. The pilot came out at the start of the flight, school everyones hands and said hello to the whole plane. The flight attendants were kind as well. It's a low cost airline but good to fly. Hopefully they can get their website and phone service issues sorted out because I think they're hampering their success.

"start calling and complaining?"

(United States)

Phoenix to Minneapolis. My husband and I have flown Sun Country 5-6 times per year over the 2 1/2 years. Originally we used to book coach and call 24 hours prior to our flight to upgrade to first class. In the last year and half we started booking first class instead of waiting. Over the last year plus we have received consistently poor service from flight attendants. Normally I wouldn't say anything but it has gotten to a point that I think I want to start looking at different airlines. When did the flight attendants from MSP to Phoenix start disliking their jobs so much. I'm a person that says please and thank you. They barely smile in appreciation. If you don't like what you do find something different. The new rules are awful as well. Anyone can use first class bathrooms? I have been bumped into, they have touched my food, spilled my drink - need I go on. Anyone can use the overhead compartments? What's up with that. I have had bags dropped on me, I have had bare stomachs rub against me when they are reaching. What about the digi players. Last flight I was on flight attendant supposed to be passing them out stood up front flirting with guy flight attendant approximately 15 minutes. Then when she came back to collect them she collected first class first. I was on a 2.5hr flight and couldn't watch a 107 minute movie. I want Sun Country from a couple of years ago to come back. Will it help if I start calling and complaining?

"indicate there is no window at 8A"

(United States)

Minneapolis to Tampa. I've flown Sun Country Airlines several times, and have never had any problems with them. This last time I flew with them, I was flying with two other people, one of which had never flown. While confirming our seat selections, I chose row 8A-C. The seat selection screen says that 8A is a"bad seat" but doesn't say why. It appeared to be near the wing, but now over it, so I didn't see what the trouble was and I chose it. Turns out there's no window at 8a (there is one across the aisle at 8f though). Since one of my companions had never flown, it was important to me that she have a window. When I had the 24 hr notice to check in online, I did so, and also had the opportunity to change our seats, but the seat selection also indicated that it was a full flight, so there was nothing to move all three of us too. So, when we boarded, I noticed that rows four and five were completely open, and they stayed that way after the main door was closed. The fight attendants let us move up to one of the rows with windows, so it was fine. I would like to see them update their website to indicate there is no window at 8a. I will use sun country again, just not seat 8a.

"will definitely fly again"

(United States)

Verified Review | I had a pleasant experience flying Sun Country Airlines from Boston to Minneapolis. It was initially frustrating because our flight was delayed but the assistance and care shown by one of their employees turned my experience around 100%! It's rare that an airline employee stand out to me in such a way and I travel often and through airports around the world. Great hire Sun Country, will definitely fly again.

"a super friendly staff"

(United States)

We love Sun Country Airlines. The flights are very reasonable and they have a super friendly staff. We are very disappointed that they do not fly directly to Harlingen, Texas anymore. They should definitely bring that back and we would fly with them again!

"reserved seat assignments changed"

(United States)

Paid extra to reserve seats near the front of the plane for my young daughters - traveling alone for their first time. Reserved seats were confirmed, and, in fact a verbal guarantee from the Sun Country representative taking the preferred seating reservation, that our seat assignments wouldn't change, they were confirmed in the "system". And, that I could rest assured, knowing that my girls wouldn't have any trouble with their seat assignments. Well, either that Sun Country representative didn't know what she was talking about, or, she was playing the game of "opposite day" during our phone call. Not only did their reserved seat assignments get changed, but, I had to spend close to 2 hours on the phone with Sun Country customer service getting the run around about how something must have happened to their "system" and, that there was nothing that anyone at Sun Country could do to correct the situation - since, the seats had been newly "reserved" by someone else! Furthermore, the Sun Country customer service representative wouldn't give me any kind of guarantee that the same glitch in "their system" wouldn't happen again - when it came time for my daughters' return flight. I'll keep my fingers crossed, but, I'm not going to hold my breath.

"great airline for the price"

(United States)

It's was a great airline for the price and I would definitely fly with them again. I did have an issue with the a flight attendant with the way she snapped at me because I'm short and had a hard time getting my carry on in the overhead bin, because someone put theirs in sideways preventing me being able to get mine in. Also during my 1 hour layover we were at the gate within 45 mins but an attendant snapped at us because they were hoping to leave 20 minutes early because we wanted actual food before we hopped back on. The needs to be a better food selection besides cheeseburger, perhaps sandwiches. Besides those incidents it was a decent flight for the price.

"inflexible rules about boarding times"

(United States)

Sun Country Airlines is a terrible airline compared even to the other not so good airlines. Unreasonable and inflexible rules about boarding times, unpleasant staff, poor in-flight experience, disorganized communication. Spend the extra $20 and fly another airline - or you might not fly at all.

"for a free flight it's pretty good"

(United States)

Flew Sun Country Airlines on a casino junket, as like every other plane, seats are horrible. This is a 1hr 20 min flight so it's not that bad. Free drinks on flight to casino, purchase option on way back. Ground staff was wonderful at both locations. I gave it an 8 because the seats are horrible. All in all, for a free flight it's pretty good.
