They had a problem with their air conditioning system and we almost had heat strokes because they blasted HEATED AIR for almost 40 minutes and there was literally no air. This is the worst airline in Bolivia. Can't believe we have no other options sometimes.

BOA is truly the worst airline in Bolivia. It's a shame we sometimes need to use it cause we have no more options.

BOA airplanes are so old and dirty, the bathroom was so nasty, it smelled so bad and had tape all over the cabinets. My chair wouldn't recline, we had no entertainment, the flight was super cold. The only positive thing about this flight is that I feel it's so old that they even serve food, like in the past! I travel a lot and nowadays the companies only serve some snacks or sometimes offer something to eat if you pay. Not the case with this flight. Never again flying with BOA. They are definetly the worst.

This airline is always THE WORST. They seem to have flights moving to other times (late) 90% of the time. The airplanes are old, and the landing (i really don't know why) is 90% of the time shaky. I actually never buy tickets from BOA, I prefer other airlines by far.

This is one of the oldest airplanes I've ever been in. No tv, no entertainment at all, seats are SO UNCOMFORTABLE and the whole flight was so cold. It's the worst flight ever. Avoid it.

Do not flight in BOA, pay a little bit more and you can use Copa or Avianca, this company is a nightmare from the boarding process, plane quality, services, etc, etc.

Pros: Overall experience was outstanding. Clean, comfortable aircraft combined with excellent crew constantly and sincerely concerned about the passengers wellbeing. Not the standard rudeness of certain airline service overworked and unfriendly crew.
Cons: At the airport the line for checkin can definitively be better organized. Rather slow.Reviewed Feb 2020review from

Pros: The airline employees at the counter was great. Kind and considerate at all times
Cons: The airline should invest some money in entertainment options. 11:30 hs just watching the trip development on the screens placed over the aisle, is not only boring but way behind today’s trends.Reviewed Jan 2020review from
