Pros: "I liked the ability to choose my meal before the flight."
Cons: "Customer Service at the Priority Check-in could have been much friendlier, I’ve experienced much better customer service from Delta Airlines. Plus the flight attendants could have been more attentive that sitting up front in the galley and just chatting with each other."
Pros: "The same as in Amsterdam."
Cons: "well it was okay. Since i was happy to board my flight to miami in time."
Pros: "Crew is helpful, seats comfortable"

Pros: "Old plane - needs scrapping or a refit"
Pros: "The staff tried all they could to move things along"
Cons: "The congestion at the gate, and the staff’s frustration dealing with the people who weren’t listening caused some of the problems. This plane took about twice as long as it should have to get everyone into their seats. I don’t know why. Maybe it was a lot of people who’ve never flown before. The rollaboard bags always are a problem. There was plenty of room in the overheads."

Cons: "My daughter is in a wheelchair. She was a carry on (I e I carry her on board). The staff knew this but failed to notify the airport. Hence, we had to deplane without a jetway. I didn’t. The steep stairs made it unsafe. Had to wait a long time for a handcranked lift. No one really knew what they were doing and they wanted to put her in an adult wheelchair in spite of my identifying safety issues. My daughter was scared and upset. Epic failure on AA’s part. Communication breakdown on many levels. Shameful."

Cons: "The seats were very uncomfortable"

I predict that they will not be around in the next 10 years if changes are not made."

Pros: "Nice Jet."
Cons: "During boarding, we were pulled out of the line. The attendant that diverted us did not explain why he diverted us. Our boarding passes were printed by our hotel as were many others that we saw. We went to a desk where another individual started asking question about our life and where we were going. Still, no one thought it was necessary to explain what part of the process or what exactly is going on. The man that diverted us, I'll bet, does not have reasons or any idea why he diverted us. I hate to think that he did it because we were Black Americans."

Pros: "Complimentary something! Entertainment options would be nice."
Cons: "No complimentary anything! No entertainment:("
Cons: "The was excellent!!!"

These happen to be about at row 4 so when the plane landed I had to wait to get to my bag and get off it was frustrating"
Pros: "Kind attentive staff"
Cons: "We had to wait a half hour, or so, On the tarmac before we could leave Philly"

Pros: "I arrived to my destination"
Cons: "We boarded late. Everything is for sale. It's all a business I guess but do you have to bother me when I'm trying to sleep just to ask me if I want to buy a coke? The chairs don't even recline."
Pros: "Same as all the other airlines in my opinion. Just way more afreoadable."
Pros: "Nothing"
Cons: "Everything"
Pros: "Plane was newer"
Cons: "They charge you for everything! Water, peanuts, seat selection....and $45 for a carry on bag! Ultimately ended up paying as much as someone flying on a respectable, upscale airline....seats were basically plastic coverd in pleather. 2 thumbs down"
Pros: "Affordable and direct flight. Great friendly staff."
Pros: "Got in 1/2 hour early can't beat that."
Cons: "No wifi"

Pros: "This was my first time flying Frontier, and I was pleasantly surprised with how smoothly everything went! Check in was simple, the flight was on time, the cabin was spacious and we arrived almost an hour ahead of schedule! I will definitely be flying with Frontier again!"
Cons: "I was charged $10 extra to check a bag because I didn't pay in advance. This was my first time flying with Frontier, so I was unaware of this."
Pros: "The captain and crew were fun and positive. They entertained us and always had a smile with a joke."
Cons: "The seats..... Anything more than 2 & half hours hurts your butt. Bring seat cousion for longer flights. It's truly an air bus."
Pros: "Boarding was a little confusing towards the end I said in zone three Arbor they got the preferred passengers board it then they called 12 and three all at the same time"
Cons: "All flights out of Philadelphia were cancelled by Frontier due to a bit of snow, yet almost every other airline was still flying out. You didn't even try! And I had to pay $200 more for a flight."
Pros: "Nothing - the flight was cancelled several hours before departure time for unknown reasons as were other Frontier flights and the only recorde was to get a refund or get customer service rebooked Wednesday or Thursday"
Cons: "Customer service was poor - waited on the phone about 2 hours upon learning of cancellation, arrived at airport while still in the phone - lines at ticket counter were long and chaotic and clearly understaffed and able to offer no good solutions"
Cons: "Due to the weather several flight were cancelled causing a back up with numerous complaints. I was unable to check my bags in a timely manner, which resulted in the agent giving me a slip for a full refund"
Pros: "Crew was fine."
Cons: "Everything else wasn't. PLEASE CLEAN THE AIRCRAFT INTERIOR."
Cons: "High charge on baggage. Not even water. I will not want to flight with you again. Sorry."
Cons: "I've traveled consistently between 4-6 times a year for the last 15 years and this was my first trip with Frontier. It was by far the worst travel experience of my life. One of the passengers was so drunk that she threw up all over the gate agent's podium, and this passenger was still allowed on the plane. When we boarded, we had to circumvent the vomit because it hadn't been cleaned up yet. There were multiple passengers on board who brought their own alcohol, were noticeably drunk and extremely loud. I understand that this is not your crew's fault, but there was a complete lack of understanding as to how to handle the situation. The pilot scorned passengers as a whole, and noted that if people didn't calm down, he would force a landing in North Carolina. The responsible passengers such as myself not only had to tolerate the debauchery, but also felt like we would be potentially be punished for other people's bad behavior. The flight crew seemed to have no idea how to handle this situation. I don't understand why is passenger are blatantly breaking federal regulations, the crew would not do anything about it. When I attempted to check in online, literally ever seat (including middle seats, back row) had an up-charge which is simply ridiculous. the seats were small and very uncomfortable. I will never fly Frontier again. I'd pay double for a flight with another company just to avoid them."
Cons: "$45 for carry on"
Pros: "I paid for a two-star flight"
Cons: "I got a two-star flight"
Cons: "Not enough staff in the boarding area to ask about luggage etc"
Pros: "Boarding was well organized"
Cons: "Stewards totally ignored me for food and beverage service"
Cons: "Frontier is cheap, but I guess this is because they cut corners by not paying people to attend to their check-in kiosk. As a result, fifty or more people were waiting at the check in with no idea whether or not it was the right place or whether someone would eventually come. There were no chairs benches or waiting area---and we were forced to watch while other people were welcomed by their airlines. Also, having to pay for a single carry on seems like overkill to me."
Cons: "Delays are terrible"
Cons: "I did not like all of the hidden fees and lack of beverage service without having to pay for it."
Cons: "Charging to choose a seat. No distinction in check in between "personal item" and "carry on" so you're almost tricked into buying a carry on when it prompts "no, I don't plan to bring anything with me", must print boarding pass unless you use Frontier app but there were no self help Kiosks at the airport"
Pros: "Flight going was pretty good...no issues. Although return flight was canceled....customer service found later flight thru another airline."
Cons: "Flight coming back was continuously delayed than canceled."
Cons: "The cost for carry on, paying for water, the delay"
Pros: "Flight was on time arrived early. Price to check baggage was ridiculous."
Cons: "Lost my luggage going on fourth day still haven't found it. Price to check or carry on luggage was ridiculous."
Pros: "Quick and easy boarding and security"
Cons: "It cost $20 extra for a crappy seat and more for a normal seat and $30 extra to take my single carry on. It would have been more honest to tell people these costs up front to allow prices to be properly compared."
Cons: "I left several messages with the customer service people. I had jewelry stolen from my checked baggage. No one ever got back to me about the theft. My email is dlsappian@aol.com."
