US Airways

Pros: In-flight crew and service was fine.
Cons: Chaotic baggage claims. Sloppy/inconsistent communication with passengers. Insufficient ground staff.

In October 2004 I booked a US Airways non-stop flight from Minneapolis to Philadelphia for a Christmas 2004 vacation to visit my family. I used Travelocity.com to buy the ticket and the $330 price was competitive with the dominant airline in Minneapolis, ...

Pros: They did get me home
Cons: overbooking, Coke instead of Pepsi

Up until yesterday I have been quite satisfied with the service I have received traveling on USAIR. Yesterday I felt like the cast from Gilligans Island....you know the intended "three hour tour"?

My day started at...

Pros: Generally efficient with check-in and baggage service, best rate for our journey
Cons: Rather surly flight staff, dirty nasty planes

Rather than sensibly sticking with one airline and acquiring reward points or frequent flier miles, mr_chelledun and tend to hop around from airline to airline based on an incrementally lower price or slightly more convenient flight time. For our recent ...

Pros: Journeymen
Cons: Poor Customer Service. Poor Communication.

I finally figured out a downside to Priceline.com. When you purchase tickets from them, THEY pick the airlines. And US Airways is one of their Top Six that they consult when looking for tickets. If I have any input, I will NEVER fly on US Airways...

Pros: One very pleasant flight attendant Hubby needed some new shirts
Cons: Don't always schedule a crew for FULL flights

Last year we were supposed to go to a wedding in Rochester NY. The week before we were to leave, my ...

Pros: Reasonable fares, good coverage of east coast
Cons: Average performance, poor coverage of west coast

Some airlines are so aggressive on fares or customer service that I can't help but rave about them. Other airlines are so horribly late and overpriced that I can't help but blast them. But then there are some airlines that are neither remarkably great...

Pros: Good Savings, friendly staff
Cons: The usual delays

Well, if I have to be 35,000 feet above the ground, I want to be in plane from US Airways. I find them an easy company to do business with. Their E-Savers program, which I receive online on Wed. night, gives me deals on upcoming flights for that...

Pros: Reliable, on time, competitive prices
Cons: No hot meals and charges for cold meals

I've flown on US Airways or its predecessor American West 5 times, so I feel I am qualified to comment on the service experience. The planes are in decent shape, relatively clean to the naked eye, and they get me where I'm going on time. The routes ...

Pros: Professional, courteous personnel
Cons: A general failure to provide the small luxuries that make long-range travel more tolerable

As the title indicates, I made my most recent journey across the pond aboard US Airways. The itinerary took me from Washington National (now officially Washington Reagan) to London Gatwick via Charlotte International. Just to be sure the airlines...

Pros: Reasonable price.
Cons: Customer service hit or miss. Not being kept informed of ongoing problems.

I really wanted to write another review on this airline, but unfortunately we are unable to do so. Therefore I have written about my latest flights on the beginning of this review. Dated October 20th, 2004. When we heard that Len's grandson was ...

Pros: Somewhat more lenient regarding upgrades than others...good 1st Class
Cons: Coach service has deteriorated recently, not always on time

There has been so much recent speculation about the future of US Airways that I sometimes wonder if I will see the planes repainted in someone else's livery the next time I go to the airport. I once flew with US Airways far more often, but...

Pros: I've had some fairly uneventful short flights with them
Cons: incompetence at all levels, lied to me, homophobic employees, ignores special instructions

I've had some fairly routine relatively pleasant short flights on US Airways (USAir). I know I've flown them once between Boston and New York City and once between Boston and Philly. I think I've also flown them once cross-country on a longer flight, but...

Pros: frequent flyer miles last over 4 years
Cons: 18 inch seats too small for some people

I used to fly US Airways all the time, for some reason they always had the best deals. Then their prices started going up and I had moved to an area that US Airways held less of a market share, so I hadn't flown them in about two years. I started ...

Pros: Flight arrived on time; price was reasonable.
Cons: Small seats; limited snacks; little wiggle room.

I used to love to fly, in fact back when I was in the Navy I flew on at least three times a year to and from various places. Back in the 㣴’s and early 㣾’s the airlines still cared about your comfort and going to airport was not a ...

Pros: extensive network, reasonably good service
Cons: over-worked, financially fragile

I remember when Pittsburgh based US Air bought out our beloved Piedmont Airlines. It evolved eventually into US Airways that we know today. The service had been so good on Piedmont that we resented this "Yankee" company...
