What a great trip .

The amazing staff on the flight who went above and beyond to make sure we were comfortable amazing food and service if you have te opportunity to upgrade it's a must and well worth it.

Milan airport was bad experience. They should be more polite.

There is an issue with A380 when it arrives in Munich, because a business class passengers like me have to wait for the first class passengers to disembark, which takes some time while you are also offloading economy passengers this causes an issue at customs where your business class passengers end up behind a large bulk of economy passengers This is a frustration and the early dislocation should be and is supposed to be a benefit of business class

This was my first time flying with Emirates. Overall, the experience was very good. I thought the seats in economy would have been a bit more comfortable, but, they seem to be on par with other airlines. The food was excellent and very satisfying. If you can afford it, I would definitely suggest upgrading to at lest premium economy seats for long haul flights.

First time and very memorable, the finest flying experience ive ever had

We boarded via a mobile gate in Dubai. I don't care for the bus ride from the gate to the plane

No Vegetarian options onboard, made to wait for a long time for boarding

The internet connection did was not functioning as per normal.

I was traveling business purposes and I only had one carry on and a personal computer back pack . My carry on was 8.5 kg little more than allowable. At jfk airport check in they did not let me carry it . I was little disappointed.

Ask for extra blanket if needed. Also middle seating have bad access position to access reading light and vent so only choose those seating if traveling as family or friends, etc.

The premium economy seat was the wurst one I have ever experienced

Made us gate check carry ons Then didn’t get them on the plane. Service they used didn’t deliver our carry ons for more than a day Total mess

They didn't give us Nothing to eat, come on..... 1 package of chips and a glass of soda won't do anything to the company

For the price of the ticket it's probably the best service in the world

Flight was diverted from Firenze to Pisa causing delay and inconvenience.

Checked me out of my connecting flight despite having enough time to transfer, had to check in again at the gate. Then they lost my luggage.

The pilot was wonderful and enthusiastic and introduced himself over the intercom. We all felt in good hands. Crew were all super friendly and especially the young , gentleman crew member. Everything Swiss airlines represents. Hospitality, friendly and professional. Thank you. Truly a memorable short flight.

Swiss ground crew was again at its prime and although I’m United 1K (Star Alliance Gold) they created problems with my hand luggage - while other passengers were boarding with more handbags and larger hand luggages, were critical on my 2 young kids attending the lounge with me and boarding the plane with me on the priority lane.

We so appreciated that our connecting flight waited for 6 of us!!!

A lot of things could have been better. They lost our luggage. We missed our connection from YVR to Naples when we arrived in Zurich and then we got re-routed to Rome and then Naples. We eventually got to Naples but our bags didn’t. Our experience at the lost luggage in the Naples was not at all reassuring. They didn’t seem that interested in our problem. I did a live chat with Swiss customer service and all they could do is tell me to follow the process. Meanwhile we’ve had to spend significant money on clothes and I have to replace medications. This has meant our trip so far has been totally different than what we had planned. It’s not clear that our baggage will ever show up which means we will have lost significant amount of clothing and other things and our two month trip to Europe will have more problems than good memories. So far we are not happy.

See comments in previous section Houston to Chicago Chicago to Istanbul

They gave us some Tiramisu that had no business being as delicious as it was! They were continuously attentive and provided a great environment to welcome us on our trip.

Very good. I was happy that business seats were in a 1-2-1 configuration for the long haul flight. The shorter flight was a 2-2-2 configuration which I do not like as much, but it was a 3 hour flight that I slept through.

Food wasn’t good but not their fault as I should have pre selected

Their weakness is in boarding. Business class rarely boards first and there are no announcements explaining delays, so customers are always left waiting and wondering why boarding has paused.

My experience was amazing. Very friendly hosts and impeccable service.

Everything was great except the meat served was tough and overcooked!

Good experience with Turkish Airlines. We will be back with Turkish in the future and look forward to upgraded business class on the 777 beginning in 2025 and on the Airbus 350 now.

Friendly cabin crew and the flight was on time. Would recommend toanyone

Our charging and WiFi were not working in our business class seats, even after they "refreshed" it.

When I fl with Bulgarian air, I am greeted with a bottle of water and a packaged cleaning wipe. There is a hot sandwich and a drink offered afterwards. Towards the end of the flight, there is a piece of chocolate and per request an additional water bottle. For the price that Lufthansa charges per ticket, it is embarassing that other airlines can offer better customer service quality on board. Also, some of the Lufthansa flight attendants act very entitled instead of being customer focused. Regularly the mobile lift for diabled passengers is missing... Every time when I fly with my 89 year old mother, she is being questioned multiple times whether it is okay to use the stairs ( she walks with two canes). Most of the times when we arrive in Frankfurt, the mobile lift is missing and she is urged to use the staircase. When I refuse to allow this, the flightattendants look at me scornfully. This is not WW2 where disabled people should be treated as second hand people... Then we all have to wait another 30 to 40 minutes on the airplane, while waiting for the mobile lift to arrrive. Does Lufthansa have enough money to waste on an airplane waiting for (on the average) 30 min for the mobile lift to come? I fly frequently and have experience mostly with Delta, United, Southwest and other American Airlines. Lufthansa needs to pick up their game on board, if they want to stay competitive and in the game...

Keep an eye on your seat assignments - ESPECIALLY if you paid for upgraded seats - the airline moved us out of our prepaid seats THREE TIMES and I could only resolve it by calling customer service - who was very helpful. Expect to carry your bags down several flights of stairs for boarding on the tarmac.

It was ok no problem on flight after the ordeal with passport control. Long line and nasty officers not very helpful.

I was disappointed that paying nearly $5000 more for business class for two didn’t really get me any more than a larger seat which as the last row in cabin reclined only mildly and the foot supports were of minimal help and left no room under seat ahead for carton bag. Second, our checked luggage was lost and took us two long days and we’ll after midnight each of them and multiple calls and 30 euro trip to airport in person to finally get them. Would you do this again?

The tv and remote didn’t work. The plug to charge our phone didn’t work.

Never made it to Lufthansa because of Air Canadas negligence.

Boarding and flight update was fantastic as I experienced about a 10-15 delayed for both flights. The food served onboard was great; the service of the flight attendants was excellent.

Complete mess. Our reservation was mistakenly cancelled. After almost missing the connection and walking all over the Munich airport, the Service desk got involved and we were run to our flight. Not all 4 of us in Business and not seated together as originally booked. This was the worst treatment I have ever had. And I travel a lot. 1K million miler.

Crew was excellent. Sat us together after the airline changed our seats. This was the smaller plane/shorter flight so no entertainment or food.

Hated every minute of it. Delayed for over 10 hours only to have to cancel rental car, car insurance and hotel. Its taken me 3days to get to my final destination when it should have only taken 12-14 hours. Very unhappy with Lufthansa.

Straightforward boarding process. Pilot kept us informed during the flight, especially highlighting the fact that we would experience "significant braking" when we landed on the short runway in Florence. The flight attendants were pleasant. My chief complaint is that I was stuffed into a seat in the rear of the aircraft (row 29?). The seat pitch was soooo tight that my knees were hard against the seat in front of me as soon as I sat down. One inch more room would have made a difference. Thankfully it was not a super long flight, but it was quite uncomfortable and I had to work out the kinks in my knees once I deplaned. Is it really necessary to have the rows this close together??

Plane took off 90 mins late, on board entertainment was not working, cabin crew was not frequent.

The crew and flight was fine and enjoyable…unfortunately, when I arrived to Bari and received my checked luggage(that I bought for this first trip to Europe), one of bags had a huge dent in it and the other had a completely damaged/broken wheel that made it very difficult to travel the rest of my time in Italy. Very disappointing and frustrating!

Poor service, antiquated plane with 2-3-2. B-class config upstairs. Tight and not comfortable—not what I expected for paying B-class! AND my bag didn’t make the transfer, bag will be delivered the day after it lands!

Someone switched seats in business class so they could sit together and we were left apart (3). Very disappointing. Staff did nothing

Worst airline in the world. They downgraded me from business class to economy with no compensation.

It is an airline that has the service that used to be in the old times as a standard and now is rare. Very good.

I was unable to board this flight because of visa changes that I was not alerted about and I’ve been unable to contact Kayak to obtain a refund / credit anything.

The space is tight. Either you sit straight up the whole time, but the minute you relax, your knees hit the back of the seat in front of you. My seat would not recline so I was quite uncomfortable. Didn’t use my tray table bc it was stained and sticky and nasty. I was also seating in one of the last rows and one crew member and people going to the bathroom kept hitting my elbow resting on the armrest.

I was forced to have my carry on luggage checked in because there was concern for lack of storage in overhead bins. I was told my baggage would come off the plane first. Instead it was one of the last.
