The boarding experience was okay. The dietary food choices were limited, the midway snacks were hard and dry. The seat was uncomfortable - stiff seat cushion, seat back kept springing back to the upright position, narrow seat width. Love the app and the ability to track my luggage. Flight crew was efficient.

When I asked for an extra snack, I got an unhappy look from the stewardess. Geez, does one extra snack really affect the bottom line??

The seats are way too stiff.

Mediocre|Feb 2025

The food was inedible! We are in the food business and aren’t sure who got this contract. But prisoners eat better. The food was so bad. I ate just a small amount and it made me nauseous. Everything is over microwaved too. And what is with the options? Vegan and vegetarian, but no keto or carnivore? I get that may be more expensive. But I’d gladly pay if it even was an option. But it’s not. There are many fresh options that could have been offered that don’t have to be heated too!

It was terrible! So much to say, but in a nutshell we used vouchers from United because our last trip with them was awful with many mishaps and errors made. Unfortunately, this trip was even worse!
