ZIPAIR

✅ Trip Verified | My review lays with being periodically harassed and ridiculed about an extension seat belt. Being that I am a plus size woman, I already came prepared and brought/bought my own seat belt extender that fit and connected the first flight to Narita no issues about the seat belt extender, however, there were still multiple times of being awaken out my sleep to pull an arm rest down or not have anything in my lap. Back to the initial complaint, on flight ZG026 to San Francisco on 9/18/23. I got to my seat and I over heard the flight attendants that did not wear name badges, speaking in Japanese about of have to make sure the fat lady has a seat belt extender. This the behavior you allow for your company. Then one comes up to me and pulls the seat belt and extends it then says you need an extender. Not ask but stated that I needed one. Still remaining calm I told her I already have one of my own and proceed to click it to get her smoothly. She leaves and talk with the previous attendant that was talking bad about me and comes back saying it’s not safe for me to use my own seatbelt extender belt. Then shoves theirs in my hand and says be sure to give this back at the end of flight and stayed until I removed mine and connected theirs to the seat belt. The attendant walks off says something else that I could not fully hear but definitely heard I’m going to mark her seat down so she doesn’t steals it to the previous attendant they both laugh. I proceeded to state I really don’t need this extension belt and you two are making me uncomfortable and we haven’t even taken off. They lie and says it’s policy and then walk off. Fast forward to 2/3 of the flight nearly ending the same attendant wakes me out of my sleep to tell me don’t forget to leave the extension belt in the seat when I leave. I calmly say ok even though I am boiling because of the assumption of assuming that I’m going to steal a extension belt extender, then when we land and the seatbelt light is off. I took off the seat belt and detached everything and left in the seat. The same harassing attendant comes up to me and demands I give her the seatbelt extender. I reach behind me and get it for her and said I thought you wanted me to leave it in the seat but please do take note that you have it back in your hands. Because I am not a thief and do not appreciate being harassed like one. I wish they had name plates so I can post it in this review. Lounge in narita was ok, the white seats are extremely stained and there’s no restroom inside it. In conclusion, this is the last time flying with ZIPAIR.

✅ Trip Verified | Tokyo to San Jose. If you fly Zipair you have to purchase everything ahead of time: meals and drinks.

Not Verified | Very restrictive airline. They will nickle and dime you for anything you want. Nothing is offered free. Only allows each person 30 lbs combined of personal and carry on bag (thats about half their weight empty). They don't even offer you water on an 11 hour flight. Checked bags weight is overweight no matter what. Expect another $50 - $80 for each checked bag. Could not check in online. Could not print a boarding pass except at their desk. No frills. They usually get mad if you bring on your own food or drink too!

Not Verified |  Flew in Full Flat, extra pay for suit case, no lounge and no free food or beverage during flight provided. Cabin crew extremely unprofessional and rude to me.

✅ Trip Verified | The ticket was sold as Full flat, but it was without business class amenities. No business check-in line, not supporting TSA, no business lounge.

✅ Trip Verified | The trip was so unpleasant, except for the ticket price. When I lined up to check in in the beginning, the staff recommended me to use its kiosks. She said it would save time. Well, she did not mention, the success rate for using kiosks is less than 10%. I ended up lining up again from the very end. The luggage check-in tooks forever for most of travelers. It took me one and half hours to see the counter agent finally. My ticket was issued within 5 minutes. So i was puzzled why it took others so long. The boarding process was out of order. Nobody guided you how and where to line up. One staff just held a sign saying "Row 45 and up" boarding. But she could not be seen most of the time and the sign was up and down. Nobody paid any attention to it. Suddenly she announced "All boarding". Hundreds of traveler started to line up several lines for one gate. The entertainment options was limited and outdated. Luckily i downloaded my own movies and music the night before. Anyway, ZipAir does not have any characters of normal Japanese airline, efficient, polite and punctual. It is a budget airline at most. Avoid at all cost.

✅ Trip Verified | A great experience! Everything was easy. Traveling with hand luggage we could use the boarding pass machines at check in. The boarding process went smooth. Inside the cabin we got good chairs with enough space for big and tall people. Free wifi during the flight was awesome. I can highly recommend ZIPAIR for your flight to Seoul!

Not Verified | My first time flying Zip Air was a very pleasant experience. Easy check in at Narita Airport, polite and helpful check in staff. The boarding was on time and very easy. The aircraft was clean and modern, the seats were 100% reclinable and Business cubes, you were provided a travel pack. The pre ordered meal was excellent and fresh. The flight attendant's were checking if I needed anything and appeared to enjoy their job. This low coast Japan Airlines owned Airline has changed what it is like to fly on a low cost carrier, I will definitely fly with them again. I hope they will increase their flight destinations. Am a real fan of Zip Air

✅ Trip Verified | My Spirit Airlines flight from NY to Detroit was delayed. I missed the Spirit Airlines flight from Detroit to LAX because of the delay. The next flight was 12 hours later. Got to LAX at 3pm and missed the ZIPAIR Tokyo flight. Talked to both airlines to resolve issue and both denied to offer me help. Had to ask other airlines for assistance. Zipair denied to help, I have been sleeping in airports for 4 days now. I had paid for insurance but they didnt care.

Not Verified | I paid for three flights, but only flew once, and there's no refund. For the last flight I was supposed to take they wouldn't issue a boarding pass because I was a couple minutes late for their rule to check in 1 hour before departure. So, it ended up costing me over $2,000 to fly another airline because of their rule.
