Pro: "I have traveled to over 60 countries and I’m not prone to negative feedback but checking in a bag on Citilink in Phnom Penh was the most unhelpful customer service situation I’ve ever experienced. The Citilink website indicated one charge (which I had prepared for) for excess weight of luggage but the check-in counter charged more and only in US cash - so when I could not get my pin to work to get the additional cash, they sat back, grimaced at me, and told me they really didn’t care, I’d have to leave my bag, they couldn’t let me pay in IDR (rupiah) or pay in Jakarta, didn’t have credit card to let me charge, or pay pal, Venmo, or any other way to pay. The airport cashier wouldn’t exchange rupiah. Again, they didn’t care. One woman told me I could wire her the money into her personal bank account, though. The cashier just told them to bring my bags out and told me I should just take them back, whatever, call someone. If I left them, I asked how I would pay because they only take cash and in Phnom Penh, but they couldn’t answer. They couldn’t even lend me a bag to take things out of my bag. Luckily, I was wearing a scarf and used it be a makeshift bag for myself to unpack enough from my suitcase to bring the bag down to the amount of cash I had. I barely was able to board my flight. Of all these people, one of the ticket gentlemen was kind enough to walk me through to board the plane, apologizing for everyone."
Kontra: "Citilink is a budget airline and I get that they keep overhead down with charging people for luggage but they need to do 2 things; put the costs of their charges on their website for consistency and to support the customer experience, have at least one credit card option in an airport ticket booth. Help their employees be better than that kind of behavior. In this day and age, Paypal credit card app processing can even be done on a phone. There’s zero reason to not allow at least some flexibility with payment, even if it’s processed on their website."
Pro: "Citilink always does the best to smoothen the boarding process."
Kontra: "The departure hall was messy. If flights get delayed, there is not sufficient capacity."
Pro: "High commitment to be on time."
Kontra: "The machines for self-check in have been removed. That was previously very conventent. Citilink advertises with branded e-toll cards, but I can't get them anywhere."
Pro: "Professional, straightforward. Food and entertainment not rated. Not available for short trips. Food for additional payment, not tried. Prices seem reasonable."
Kontra: "Advertise with merchandise, which is not available."
Kontra: "Please warn the passengers who not obey the flight rules, such as turning on the mobile phones before the plane stop and so on."
Bring AVOD back to the plane
Air Asia is a favourite of mine. Well run, good planes, great staff and great value.
Kontra: "I wish I was told my ticket did not include a meal upfront."
Kontra: "Seat pitch is low for anyone who is tall. Even though you pay extra money for rows 6-12 you end up boarding last."
Kontra: "Flight attendant presentation (uniforms were not very high quality)"
Pro: "Boarding was fast, aircraft clean"
Kontra: "Crew wasn't just unfriendly, they were really rude!"
Pro: "stewards helped us with all our baby bags"
Kontra: "not chewing on my knees for 4 hours would have been nice"
Pro: "The aircraft arrived late but the crew did an excellent job to turn the aircraft around fast and we ended up being early into Denpasar. Well done!"
Kontra: "Not much to be honest? I value on time departures and this crew did everything they could to get back onto schedule."
Pro: "Air asia always ok"
Pro: "Sat grounded for 1 hour,"
Kontra: "Service"
Pro: "AirAsia is a crooked airline. We had to pay Singapore$120 to check in two pieces of cabin luggage at the airport because we HONESTLY declared they were over 7kg each. On board the aircraft most passengers had cabin luggage which most definitely exceeded 7kg. NEVER again AirAsia."
Kontra: "Stop overcharging for every f...g thing if not booked ahead. Add it all up a regular airline is cheaper. Dont abuse your network and schedule. You will never get be back to fly you."
Pro: "The airline was okay and pretty much on time. I think they are one of the safest to travel on in Indonesia after Garuda Indonesia."
Kontra: "Super old aircraft, it was very dirty including the seats and tray table. I didnt feel like touching it. There was no entertainment whatsoever."
Pro: "Clean and crew"
Kontra: "2.5 hour delay. Not worth it."
Kontra: "I got stuck in traffic and missed my flight from lAX to Singapore, so I called Kiwi right away, and they wouldn’t rebook me. If there is anyway you can help I would appreciate it so much!!!"
Kontra: "You booked us a flight with only an hour layover in Singapore. I feel you should have known that changing airlines in Singapore requires a 3 hour layover as you must claim your baggage at the baggage claim, go through customs, change terminals, re-check your bag and then go through security again. All this being said we missed our flight and had to purchase new tickets! What are you going to do to make this up to us as it’s our honeymoon?"
Pro: "We survived the flight with only a little backpain and one stiff butt cheek"
Kontra: "No legroom, very narrow seating, no meal, expensive"
Kontra: "Flight delayed 4 times until 4 hours from the original flight time."
Kontra: "Checked in 2.5 hrs early and my reward was they left my bag in Denpasar while I went on to Kuala Lumpur!"
Kontra: "plane was late and queues at Bali airport beyond belief"
Pro: "Crews are quite friendly"
Kontra: "Certain Crew is unable to do simple math calculation even though she is using calculator. I was purchasing food and gave Malaysian Ringgit, little that I know, the change is given in Rupiah and the amount was wrong, it was short of 55,000. Luckily I did a little math calculation my own, and find that she was over-charging too much for the food. Realizing that particular crew can't calculate, I offer to pay using Rupiah, she rejected it and gave me back the proper change. The exchange rate on board is absurd!!! I suggest use local currency if anyone would do onboard purchasing on AirAsia."
Pro: "We boarded and landed on-time without a hitch. I didn't prepaid or order any food but it did smell good."
Kontra: "No entertainment on the aircraft."
Kontra: "It is like riding a bus except bus would allow you bags free of cost. No entertainment. Food and water only if you pay. Had to pay for bags also and it is not a small amount. Sucha ripoff."
Pro: "Friendly staffs - both on the Fllight as well as the Ground Staffs."
Kontra: "I cannot think of any"
Pro: "Great crew personality"
Kontra: "Boarding process could be improved. Should have only allow passengers with seat numbers announced to enter instead of letting all."
Pro: "Service Crew"
Kontra: "The automated baggage system"
Pro: "absolutely nothing about the flight was"
Kontra: "I paid for exit row seating and didnt get it"
Pro: "Almost everything except for the seats.."
Kontra: "The seats.. too small.."
Kontra: "Flight was badly delayed and retimed 3 times. Ended up we wasted a whole day. No reason was given."
Pro: "The value, I got low price ticket. Polite , helpful crew. On schedule. Using apps for check in, no paper harassment. Didn't try food, and no use for entertainment for short flight. Don't have baggage."
Kontra: "Space was so cramped, aisle and between seats. Would be very uncomfortable for people with long legs, long flight. Even cabin crew could hardly help with baggage on boarding in and out because of the space. Should be more firm on one cabin bag+one handbag policy, many inconsiderate passanger carry more so it was even more cramped."
Pro: "On schedule, even a bit earlier on arrival. Good, polite crew."
Kontra: "So small space, can hardly move. But it was a budget flight, so was expected. Would be harder on person with longer leg."
Pro: "Crews attitude were nice."
Kontra: "The interior was look old and worn. It's a tired plane, with no proper clean up or maintenance in between flights."
Pro: "We got there."
Kontra: "Late departure, charged for baggage, cramped seating."
Pro: "Actually getting to Bali"
Kontra: "30mins before scheduled boarding notification of flight delayed was displayed with no explanation. I had to google about the volcano once again causing delays & cancellations, although AirAsia takes a different route so this shouldn't have been a problem. Departure time comes & goes. finally we take off 35mins after schedule, the captain making some excuse of rescheduling, no mention of volcano. Rough flight, very bumpy take off and landing, probably the worst I've experienced including small military planes! I paid for a drink but never received my change with the crew member never looking at me once afterwards so I could never get his attention. Then there was the airport.....!"
Pro: "Nothing"
Kontra: "AirAsia is a joke. first off there never on time. My plane left 2.5 hours late. on top of that they give you NO free anything. They charge for coke, water any drinks & snacks. Oh and your baggage has to be really light. I was charged $275 to check 2 bags. Absolutely absurd. Oh and to top that off, I've never been on a plane with smaller seats. AVOID THIS AIRLINE!!!"
Kontra: "Baggage collection at DPS was way too long."
Pro: "Arrived ar destination safely"
Kontra: "Delayed for 3+ hours. Poor passenger management."
Kontra: "Flight got delayed because of the rain. Our luggage was left outside during the rain and all of our clothes were wet when we unpacked. Very upsetting!"
Pro: "Crew manager sang us some songs as we descended to Perth"
Kontra: "Seat space for legs a little cramped for taller folks."
Pro: "The free meal prior to boarding."
Kontra: "The fact that our flight was extremely delayed and the gate was very chaotic!"
Pro: "Nothing"
Kontra: "We staied alot in the airport waiting the delayed flight without parior commuincation The plan was so noisy We were not notified before that our luggages were not included in the ticket price so we spent time trying to pay online but the website was so bad and then we paied cash The plan was so cold which made me feel sick and no plankets to use The take off and the landing were terriple Even no pottle of water served all have to be paid by the passengers !!"
Pro: "Nothing !!!!!! $$$$???"
Kontra: "Didn't do a good servers, even a small bottle of water passengers have to pay. What the world !!! $$$ ???"
Kontra: "We arrived at the airport right at check in time. When we went up to check in and hand over our luggage only to find out that one piece wasn't included in ticket price, something that hasn't been made clear. My friend (who was on crutches) and I then had to go back and wait in a different line to pay $45 each per backpack. None of this was explained to us and the girl at the front was too busy on her phone looking at Facebook to be helping people. when we finally got through the plane was small, no leg room and I'm only 5'2. Limited meal options which we were charged an extra 30% through a poor exchange rate for, still fairly convinced the staff pocketed that money as it didn't say anywhere that they were going to charge that amount extra. No complimentary drink, not even water. Won't fly air Asia again. Cheap and you get what you pay for, but after that baggage charge there were definitely cheaper, better options out there."
Pro: "Quick boarding process"
Kontra: "N/a"
Pro: "We arrived at checkin to discover we had to pay for luggage and the price just before take off is crazy like $90 per bag Kayak Didn't disclose when buying tickets that there was a option to buy luggage allowance ahead - this is really bad!"
Kontra: "Kayak's lack of transparency on hidden luggage charges and not making us buy it ahead of time cost is"
Kontra: "When purchasing the flight I was in a hurry and failed to purchase two checked bags. Upon arrival air Asia charged us $45 US dollars per bag for failing to purchase online and surpassing the 4 hour time limit. We feel that this is a terrible policy. They would not wave the extraordinary baggage fees. Terrible policy!"
Pro: "AirAsia is the budget option"
Kontra: "Nothing really. You get what you pay for"
Pro: "Ticket price and excellent service at the airport nd onboard"
We had almost 1 hour delay on a 40 minutes flight.
No, price/performance is excellent
Pro: "Nothing"
Kontra: "I dont know. Perhaps more on time schedule rather than delayed for 2 hours with no prior notice"
Pro: "We didn’t crash."
Kontra: "Everything."
Pro: "We didn’t crash."
Kontra: "Check-in Procedure Baggage Policies Security Airport Facilities Seat Comfort Flight Amenities Airline Staff"
Pro: "on time and landed faster than schedule"
Pro: "Cheap tickets"
Kontra: "Flight attendants were not friendly. This is rare for Indonesia."
Pro: "Nothing"
Kontra: "Flight was delayed for 30 minutes but there was no heads up from the crew at the airport. After continued waiting after the boarding time, I approached the crew myself to ask and the crew didn't even know the flight was getting delayed (still no announcement to the other passengers). Pure nonsense"
Pro: "Prompt, modern plane"
Kontra: "Bag of peanuts"
Kontra: "2 hour delay with no explanation. Checked bag arrived very wet."
Kontra: "The checked in bagage did not arrive with our flight from Labuan Bajo. Every time they said it was arriving, but it did not. Staff did not know where bagage was. Afterwards I constructed that the bagage was simply not loaded on the place, because there was no space. So it was left intentionally and not lost. No one told us. They never admitted this to us, let alone compensation for wasting our time on the airport waiting."
Kontra: "Not only was there a delay but there was so little information about the delay. No help with getting new tickets for our next flights. We were given the run around trying to sort things out ourself. The "refreshments" were absolutely horrible considering that we were delayed 8 hours over the course of two flights. When we got on the plane the seat pockets were so disgusting that I couldn't put anything inside them. The inflight drink and snacks were pitiful. Won't be flying Lion Air ever again."
Pro: "fast check in"
Kontra: "delay no F&B provided during flight no in flight entertainment"
Pro: "Nothing to like. Basically the stewardesses in the plane where helpful, but I guess they where running over their allowed flight hours."
Kontra: "4 hours delay, each and every time the delay was 1 hour more, and 1 hour more. Not even a close to correct estimation. No compensation from the airline for drinks or food. Once finally boarded flight-documents process took more than 20 minutes, and taxiing for take off took 25 minutes more."
Pro: "Lion air include the bagage in the flight price."
Kontra: "even web check in already, we still have to Q-up."
Pro: "Promo price"
Kontra: "Not only the flight is delayed, the announcement to notify the passengers about the delay was late as well."
Tidak tepat waktu, kru pesawat tidak sigap membantu😔
The trip canceled and transferred me to another flight after 1 hour
