Not good, the seat was broken and the middle seat table was not lowering, no option on the food, despite the business class wasn’t full. In the menu offered they had fish or chicken, no chicken available when was my turn (seating in raw 2!)

it was hard to find the check in at the airport no signs food was average

Boarding in BCN was really poorly managed. No communication from airline staff and no signs as to what groups line up where. It was just guessing. There were delays that were also not communicated so everybody was standing in line for almost an hour.

Would be good if we didn't have to print out own boarding pass

Agean Airlines are the best!!! Kind and pretty personnel willing to help you any time! Kind with the kids and smiley faces! And the only airlines to serve food and drink for free! Yes! This is GREEK HOSPITALITY!! Great job!!

Η πτήση εμφάνισε μεγάλη καθυστέρηση και λαμβάνοντας υπόψη το γεγονός ότι επρόκειτο για την τελευταία βραδυνή πτήση, ήταν ιδιαίτερα κουραστικό για τους επιβαίνοντες.

different entrance during the boarding for gold members and business class

Crew was excellent. Food was ok for a short flight. Plane was a regular airliner without any entertainment. Crew members were delightful. Pilot took off and landed without ever feeling that it had touched down. Very professional pilot and staff

Short flight. They served drinks and food, but the flight was full and had to put my hand luggage under the seat.

2 hours delay on the plane causing us to miss our connection

Payd for long seats for our parents and because they don’t speak English fluent they have moved them. Absolutely scam!

Even when you get the priority pass the experience is not what it meant to be priority

I wasn't able to check in before because I had no internet on a long ride over and I had to pay Euro 50 all together I paid an extra Euro 200 on top of the original flight because I had suitcase and carry on and I wasn't able to check in online before And the end it ends up being more expensive flight than a regular carrier You don't save money and the plane is less comfortable

Surprisingly, a very good flight. No wonder that Wizz flights are always full.

Boarding kept us waiting for ~15 minutes in the sleeve. Other than that, excellent for a low cost carrier.

2 hours delay, very disappointing, at least they didn’t cancel at all as they do often

Flight schedule was modified and the final departure time delayed.

Big delay because of the weather but communication not so good. Boarding already late (due to tight schedule on Wizz side). When you get in you are hurried every second even if you still need a few seconds to arrange your bags. Food far away from how it looks in the catalogue and right on row 8 already out of chocolate although you are supposed to receive one for a menu. No replacement was offered.

Attesa lunga nella comunicazione del Gate e dopo l'apertura del Gate

Wizzair is a mess, don’t trust them, all flights are delayed, nothing is secure with them, they are the poorest of all companies.

They didnt chack the vise for Vietnam (they chaked but sad its was great and then when web had problem, NO Service they didnt unser my messes

Kayak offered terrible customer service. The 2nd of 3 flights were cancelled and it took me an hour on the phone to try to cancel the other 2. I had to call back later to get someone to assist. I was calling internationally and an already stressful situation was made worse.

Moderate carrier , one of the flight attendant crashed my leg with the food table and never bothered to apologia but give you a lecture about how to sit in your seat.

No TVs are working, in my local busses also not work sometimes. Is the both are same,,

If I have a choice I would not use this airline. They moved by booking to Smart Wings, an airline they code share with. Changing terminals in buses and dealing with some of the staff associated with it is not the best experience. Having stated that I must share that the crew of Smart Wings airlines was polite.

Consider serving food to all passengers regardless of food reservation status during booking.

This was a smartwings operated flight. Flydubai is no longer value for money. Their prices are as high as emirates whereas delays, services and overall quality is as low as any other low cost carrier.

The only highlight on this flight was the taste of the food, which was surprisingly good. Everything else was below average, and the cabin crew service especially stood out for being slow and inattentive. We were surrounded by toddlers/babies and it made our 4 hour flight feel like 10 hours. Granted, that's not the airline's fault, but it added to the overall subpar experience.
