Short flight. Was not told if there was a kosher option for the snack.

Lost my bagage on the first leg of our trip. Not even on the transfer but on the first flight they didnt put our bagage

The crew aboard Aegean were excellent, they picked on our son’s anxiety and immediately came to the rescue to see what they could do to make it go away.

My experience with a GNA was extremely poor. My original flight was canceled. They put me on another flight. Four hours later. They changed my seat number to the last row where I had no room at all and it cost me $120 for luggage. Additionally, I missed my ferry in Paris Athens. I had to rebook my ferry and I could not get a refund so by them canceling the trip for four hours it caused me no ferry to go to Betsy. I had to find a room that night. The only one I could find was at the Hyatt grand in Athens And I lost a night. Stay at Betsy that I had already prepaid so no my experience was awful. Additionally, they never said on any intercom that Greece was one hour ahead of Paris so that was a problem. We had no idea and when it was never communicated to us

Ove Aegean Airlines! Used them for several flights over past 4.months. never flown w them before but will certainly use in the future!!!

A thoroughly enjoyable experience in business class, which we “won” in the airlines lottery In exchange for a relatively small deposit. The breakfast served at the beginning of this three hour flight was absolutely phenomenal. I would be tempted to fly Aegean airlines on a transatlantic flight in light of this experience.

Was grateful that this flight was held for us as we were late from our prior flight.

Our connecting flight from Barcelona to Athens was late and it appeared that we would not make the connectimg flight to Telaviv. The plane ended up waiting and we made the connection. The airline redeemed itself.

Lovely experience with Aegean. The crew felt with some extremely rude customers with professionalism and poise. The flight went off without a hitch and even landed early!

When a flight has a delay of about an hour it is customary to announce the passengers

Agents helping disable person doesnt know connections to Poland and after 9 agents helping and 2hours ,we made it to proper terminal. Polish Dreamliner its Polish nightmare liner with so narrow seats and no room under front seat for bag and feet,in economy class.To upgrade, to higher standart cost an arm and leg ,even there are empty seats No good experience overall

The crew and flight were amazing . However , my bag’s locker got broken and no refund provided . Everything else was amazing except this bad incident that ruined my experience

Checking in took very long for whatever reason. Flight comfort these days is always poor so… Crew was great thought!

It was was okay but the seat was stiff and hard to sit on it!!

Seats were so uncomfortable, my butt hurts so much, I wish they have more cushions,it really was horrible, Except that, Stewarts were polite food was decent

The 737 lacked business-class seating. It was basically economy plus but with the middle seats left unsold. There were no TV screens but good food and service.

Plane is super outdated, seats not that comfortable for business class. Lounge also out dated. They need to catch up to 2024. Don’t think I’d ever fly again.

Everything was good, flight was smooth and on time Like service

Boarding was impossible to navigate. Had mobility issues and a business class ticket, but still boarded almost at the end of the queue because there was absolutely no organization or assistance.

Aircraft was new. Food so so, especially vegetarian was very disappointing.

Waited too long in the bus to board the plane. Communication was non existence.

A basic, cheap flight from Bucharest to Prague. No Frills, but we got there safely.

It was cancelled you imbeciles! And then you have the gall to ask for reviews? Here! Have this review, you damned cretins!

Upgrade to business was great. The crew was nice. Disembarkation in Bucharest was very slow through the rear door to a bus to get to the terminal. The business lounge was not clean with bugs running on the floor.

I rated food and entertainment with the lower score because I did not have N/A. No food and entertainment from Bucharest to London.

Poor service ! Water need to be free and a little snack for 3.5 hour during the flight. Tarom company need to take lessons from Turkish Airlines.

There was extreme turbulence for 10-15 minutes a bit after takeoff, which of course is no one's fault. This was a short regional flight with no amenities except water. Departure and arrival wete close ro on-time. The Suceava airport is very small but pleasant and efficient. My baggage all the way from Washington DC, checked through Paris and Bucharest, arrived without a hitch. There was really nothing to complain about except a regrettable 5+-hour layover in Bucharest.

This experience was atypical. The flight left three hours late because of engine technical issues, which meant a very long wait. Unrealistic announcements made it worse by discoursgong leavimg for water, reatrrom, etc. But the crew did its best and apart from the delay, it was not a bad flight. Good entertainment and drink service.In the end, I made my connection anyway.

Pros: "The crew and the flight from Bucharest to Istanbul"
Cons: "The airplane from Athens to Bucharest wa terrible, very old, smelling bad, not maintained, and noisy"

Vol annulé. Pas d'accueil. Zéro explication. Vol remplacé 3 jours plus tard. Zéro prise en charge pour l'hôtel. Nous attendons le remboursement si il va y en avoir. C'est un scandale ! C'est une arnaque.
