Food and flight attendents with positive dispositions and friendly behavior, more professional attitudes

We were Polaris passengers and found the service poor. The food was ok but the flight attendants were not attentive and rushed the service.

UA28 was good service and meals. UA is upgraded, I would like to book for next flight by UA Thanks Liao

Liked nothing. As per previous segment it was delay delay delay.

Food is terrible. Flight is outdated and seats are not comfy.

Plane was was better than th YVR to ORD flight but was a fraction of the distance. Fly your better planes on longer distance flights.

My connecting gate in .Chicago was across the aisle from my arriving gate. Otherwise I would not have made my connection. So that was very fortunate.

The pairing of personal Bluetooth headset did not work, provided headset did not work, then the screen locked and therefore no in-flight entertainment was available.

I flew basic economy, so it was what I expected. Crew was nice though, and flight was quick. Would recommend for flights under 6 hours, otherwise would upgrade to something with more leg room.

Flight was delayed due to weather and clogged toilet. Had to deplane. Flight was 3 hours delayed. Crew was awesome and offered water and snacks.

Plane and seats ok. Dinners going and coming back were not fantastic. Breakfast from Seattle to London fine with bagel, cheese and fried egg. Second meal on London to Seattle not my favorite of kind of pizza sauce in a pastry. Came with water about three different times on each of my long flights. Staff on all very friendly and helpful.

We ordered kids meals - which were not kid friendly at all! (the breakfast that is - scrambled eggs on a bed of spinach and asparagus?)

Uncomfortable seats. Crazy seat assignments separating families when they could easily have put them together. Good communication from pilot about arrival time after delay in departure. Toilet ran out of water in sink. Snack box poor for flight of this length.

Changed flight terminals/gates twice. The staff and hospitality was good.

There was no legroom whatsoever to the point where my wife dropped her phone and was unable to retrieve it as she couldn’t move. The sound system for the entertainment had a broken socket so was effectively out of action as it just crackled. Just dreadful, I will actively avoid BA in the future

Gate closed way too early - over 1 hour before departure. Put onto next flight. Ticket had been changed without notifying us.

I liked having access to all the Harry Potter movies and the food was good. The staff was also excellent. The pillows and blankets could’ve been better as mine had stains when I arrived

everything on the flight was a great experience except the food could have been better!

They lost my baggage and still waiting an update when I can receive it

The least comfortable business class seat I have encountered for a while - very very firm when reclined making sleeping difficult. Cost cutting is visible everywhere - no offer to refill drinks (the wines were not good - so no real issue there :) ) Just not worth what BA charge
