Aircrew was very very supportive helpful funny and accommodating. The flight itself was very smooth the pilot was very informative and we were very comfortable with all of the accommodations and concessions that were given. Really liked the Hub in Dublin that allowed us to do US Customs before getting back into the US to eliminate extra hassle and Rush their staff was always accommodating and very informative with signage every step of the way
This was the worst experience I've ever had with an airline. For the first wing of our international flight, we were stood in a boarding line for an hour, which was taxing because I am disabled, and then my husband and I were split up, and I was placed at the front of the plane. A flight attendant took my bag from me, which contained much needed medicine, and placed it in the overhead compartment. Because I am disabled, I needed my medicine accessible, and without my husband to reach it for me, I was stranded. My husband had previously communicated this at the gate, and they moved his seat closer but still several rows away from me, and in a center seat where he couldn't easily get up and assist me. We would have even paid extra to select our seats and to sit together, but there was no option for this. Luckily another passenger gave up her seat so that I could be with my husband for assistance, but the flight was deeply uncomfortable due to the delay in my medication and the overall conditions of the plane. For the second wing of our flight, we had the same lengthy boarding line, and somehow my husband and I ended up in adjoining center seats, which were exceptionally uncomfortable. Additionally, my husband is 6'5'' and we were both placed in broken seats - mine was stuck in a reclined position, and my husbands was stuck in a cramped upright position, with our shared armrest being broken as well. Much of the front of the plane was completely empty, and another passenger had been moved up on request, but when I requested that we be moved up to empty seats, the flight attendant I spoke with declined, leaving us in broken seats and extreme physical discomfort for the duration of a transatlantic flight. Other services throughout the flight were spotty, including simple food and beverage service and trash pickup. Flight attendants routinely forgot my husband and I and only offered items to folks on the aisle seats, and when I requested water on one occasion (to take with my medicine) I was ignored. At the end of our flight, I was barked at by a flight attendant to put my seat back up - enraging because I couldn't as my chair was broken, and because my earlier request for an unbroken seat was ignored! If my seat needed to be up for safety reasons, then Aer Lingus' staff placed me at risk by refusing to move me to a seat where this was possible. It took us several days to recover from the physical strain of this trip - not at all what we had hoped, coming back from our honeymoon. Overall, this was a deeply unpleasant experience and my husband and I will be avoiding Aer Lingus as well as encouraging all of our friends and family to avoid Aer Lingus as well
Absolutely the worst at baggage handling. Our baggage still has not been delivered. They couldn't find it in Dublin then when we got to Edinburgh they said the 2 bags were sitting in Dublin. After spending an hour filling out forms at the counter. We left for our hotel, bags arrived in Edinburgh at 505pm using my satellite tracker. Tried calling the numbers provided, no answer to their 24/7 service. Next morning the bags are still sitting at airport, no movement. Called different number provided by hotel in Sterling, the said it's souly the responsibility of the courier service now and they couldn't help. Completely ruined our travel plans, we must find clothes to purchase today instead of going to the museums we had purchased tickets for. This loss is costing us thousands in already paid hotels and services. No one takes any responsibility. I'll be contacting legal services on our return. We will never forget and I'll be a social advocate to avoid using this service.
I was disappointed with my experience on my Aer Lingus flight from Denver to Dublin. One of the biggest issues for me was the attitude of the cabin crew. They came across as cold, unfriendly, and unapproachable. There was very little warmth or friendliness, and I rarely saw anyone smile. I did not feel that the crew made passengers feel welcomed or cared for, which makes a significant difference on a long international flight. The cabin was also extremely cold and uncomfortable. What made this more frustrating was that we were instructed to put everything, including our blankets, underneath the seats at certain times rather than being allowed to keep ourselves covered. Considering how cold the cabin was, this was particularly uncomfortable. I also did not appreciate the tone used when giving some of these instructions. At times, the communication came across as unnecessarily loud and abrupt rather than polite and courteous. I understand that cabin crew have important safety responsibilities and passengers need to follow instructions, but those instructions can still be delivered in a professional, respectful, and friendly manner. Unfortunately, the lack of warmth and hospitality from the crew was the most disappointing part of my Aer Lingus experience.
No complaints. Food was good. Seats had good electrical connections for charging devices.
Cabin crew was one of the worst in memory. Poor in delivering service - in some cases skipping it altogether. Someone in baggage handling managed to steal my electronic bag tracker from Apple.
It was a short flight, so not bad. No entertainment provided, nor a complimentary tea service.
The people with the food cart ran so fast up and down the aisle that I had no idea what they were offering
I buy ticket from you and when I go to the airport aer Lingus they tell me you need travel visa for Ireland for one hour travel so when I buy tickets there no requirement I need transit, visa or not so when I try to cancel my ticket or change my ticket, you guys say there is no refund so you u guys take all my money which is very disappointed
The aircraft was clean and relatively comfortable- for an aircraft seat. The entertainment was good. The food was terrible, especially the “breakfast “ which was a cereal bar, and just not good. The crew were amazing, professional and no complaints there. The food was so bad, I know for my return, it will be inedible.
Had no disruptions or delays. Did not order any food.
I liked almost everything (e.g. ease of booking, price, punctuality, efficiency, friendliness, courtesy). A slam landing in Dublin airport took some of the gloss off it, though. Being able to paste here the text of the review of the same flight that I just wrote for Ryanair would make me feel better about Kayak too.
Take off was great but landing is always with a bump.
Staff were very professional. Much better than the outgoing flight from Dublin. Seat cushions were practically non existent. Making for a very uncomfortable flight.
They were extremely unprofessional and unhelpful at check in. They did not understand laws related to Spanish residents flying with family It was very discriminatory the way we were treated.
It's not the staff's fault. The cabin crew do their best but the setup in Stansted Airport by Ryanair is poor. The herding of people like cattle is unacceptable before boarding and is something that's in every airport but only in Stansted have I seen the queueing of passengers outside the plane on the tarmac and the crew only turning up with maybe 5 minutes to depart. This is a resource issue . Yes prices are good but seemingly comes with a price of poor treatment of customers. I'll pay more next time
Flight was fine, crew were good, cabin director spoke far too much; disembarking at Dublin Airport and entry into the terminal building was just dreadful, like entering the back door of a neglected factory building. What an awful impression it must give to first time visitors to Ireland.
all fine - did not have food - there was no entertainment
Delayed delayed delayed and then cancelled very late not allowing for too much time to find a room for the night
Worst experience ever. First time and last time with Ryanair. I'm not a cow.
