Rita AnnFlew with Aer LingusAMS-DUBSept 2024
The gate is a long walk so go through security earlier rather than later. Loads of great shops and restaurants both land and air side.
ConnerFlew with Aer LingusNCL-DUBSept 2024
Pick a seat near the back of you want to get off quicker
ThomasFlew with Aer LingusLHR-DUBOct 2024
You will likely have to walk a lot more than you might expect to make a connection.

PaulFlew with RyanairCHQ-DUBJul 2024
Avoid Ryanair. The airport is tiny, buy water etc in duty free shops not restaurants they will charge you €5 for water
Verified travelerFlew with Aer LingusEDI-DUBJul 2024
Don’t use are Lingus if you are golfing in Scotland
MarcinFlew with RyanairCGN-DUBApr 2024
Better option might be Aer Lingus from Dusseldorf to Dublin. Usually higher price, but 10kg check-in luggage included, better service and comfort.
williamFlew with Aer LingusLIN-DUBJan 2024
The check in at Linate are diabolical. I would recommend online check in and carry on baggage only
JamesFlew with Aer LingusBHX-DUBJan 2024
Bring a big wallet as Dublin prices are ridiculous

You should not have to pay for WiFi in business class

Transfer at Amsterdam airport is very convenient and the airport is easy to navigate. Boarding was also quick and easy. Cabin crew were excellent and the meals were good, although lacking in options.

This fight left ahead of time which meant it arrived early which was great. Staff were very professional, but as with all these Short hop Flights the food was a disappointing snack There was no entertainment on this flight, but I did not expect any

Overall very poor. Flight was disorganised, staff were rude and this is my second experience with KLM that I've had baggage go missing. It feels like, if you are an economy customer, KLM staff do not show you any care. I shall never fly with KLM again. Worst airline in Europe

Great boarding, great short flight but no entertainment whatsoever and no wifi. Prepare to disembark by a staircase.

Great boarding, great short flight but no entertainment whatsoever. It was supposed to have wifi but that did not work.

Transfer at CDG to connecting KLM flight to Amsterdam was a NIGHTMARE. LONG WALKWAYS, NO MOVING WALKWAYS, POOR signage, Have to take a train & No staff visible to help navigate the maze. AVOID TRANSFER AT CDG AT ALL COST.

Good food. Excellent crew service. Clean aircraft. Narrow seats and isle.

There was fog in Amsterdam so many flights were delayed because of the weather. Air France knew that the flight would be delayed by two hours but still boarded the plane on time. Instead of letting the passengers wait at the gate we were crammed into the plane. It was uncomfortable. No refreshments were given. I couldn’t charge my devices onboard.

The seats were really cramped. The high backs on the chairs made you feel claustrophobic.

Boarding was chaotic and the flight left late but arrived at a decent time. This may have been because of the sxsw festival that was going on.

The flight got canceled and you just send an email in the middle of the night and no solution to how to get on the next flight or provide other solutions.

They were all bad because SAS was at fault and cost me my time. I will never fly SAS again.

Seat was lumpier than I’ve ever remembered it to be although comfortable when tilted back. I don’t recall being that hungry after being served food from SAS before. Flight attendant on the second flight to Aalborg seemed to be having a bad day.

Please see my comments for the flight from Chicago to Copenhagen

All flights were on time! The crew was nice and polite Thank you. Food was awful. They give you terrible pasta or rice dish and make you pay for chicken if you’d like meat. When I asked for water with my tea, they told me, I’d have to pay 3 euros for water. Restrooms were filthy half way through the flight.

We were sitting in SAS plus. Super friendly, service that went above and beyond on a Full Flight too! Meals were deliscious and trays were cleared promptly. Generous drinks offered throughout the flight. Would like to suggest better movies on offer to watch.... In all genres and maybe more cooking shows? There was only 1, Nadia's Everyday Baking... Thank you

It was ok. Vegan meal was good, however no complimentary alcoholic beverages.

compared to other business class journeys, the hard product is okay..but the service of the staff is underwhelming. They are very senior and seems only to care for the colleagues they upgraded to biz and to themselves , I was not offered food before after 1 1/2 -2 hours, and the menu had one dish and the food was not that. And i could not get the breakfast.. just coffee and a croissant. i have type 1 diabetes .. luckily i had my own food. was low in sugar after sleeping and woke up 55 minutes before landing .. not able to get food anymore !! so bad business experience!

Very polite and helpful staff. Jet blue…ok, but not as helpful!..

Seat was very uncomfortable. The worst in all of my travels. It sagged in the middle, worse than anything any airline can offer. Not flying aer lingus again.

This flight was delayed and caused me to miss my connecting flight from New York to Boston. I had to rent a car and drive myself home to avoid waiting another 5 hours in the airport.

My Aer Lingus flight (booking ref # 2SU4LF) was the worst travel experience I have ever dealt with. My flight from Paris to Dublin was delayed by over 2 hours which caused me to miss my connecting flight back to the US. I was not able to be rebooked on a new flight for another 3 days. When I finally made it on my rescheduled flight, it was delayed AGAIN, causing me to miss my connecting flight from New York to Boston. At this point I decided to just rent a car since the next flight I would have been able to get in wasn’t for another 5 hours. It was a complete nightmare experience and I will never fly Aer Lingus again. I have requested a refund from the booking company I placed my order with.

Flight was cancelled. There were no Aer Lingus reps to help. I had to rebook my flight and find a hotel. Still had nothing from the airline.

They couldn't do through check-in for us. They took 2 hours to issue just one leg of the boarding pass. They had no idea to handle the case of passengers who travels to USA via Dublin airport. we had tough time time Dublin airport as boarding pass for the US flight was not pre-issued. Hope Aer Lingus will learn to handle such cases which they couldn't learn in in the past 50 years of the service.

Friendly crew who apologised and explained reason for delay. Good on board service. Rather cramped seating. Late departure.

Very sad, couldn't stop crying. Was an hour delay in Ireland and when we got to Canada the flight was boarded and couldn't get on. Was the last flight of the day. Now in a hotel waiting on a stand by.I have to got o work, so I'll go first available while my son stays in the hotel til one's available

Both flights late. Almost missed connecting flight and flight staff not willing to help expedite us off the plane.

We couldn't talk to aer lingus we had issues with the flight change and aer lingus made us talk to kayak

Overall excellent service and Frankfurt Airport was very efficient and clean

The experience was great. A330 needs an upgrade between RDU and FRA and vice-versa.

I got an email in the morning of the flight 1/7, from Kayak, that I was rebooked from UA 906 to LH 430. Nobody at Lufthansa ot United knew about this. I went to both counters. at the airport. Also, Cheap Flights, who I booked the ticket through, did not know. I ended up staying on the United flight. But this was very disturbing, since I got a very late notice that I was rebooked to an earlier flight, I hurried to the airport to find out after a lot of inquiring that this was a mistake. Not a good Kayak experience.

Disappointing. Too many let-downs, in delays and communication, by both Lufthansa and Discover to put in an email. I am resigned to the fact that this is what I should expect from all airlines. Unfortunately.

They gave us free up grade to a roomier seat.

Connecting from Germany with not enough time to go thru TSA and security so many times. Kayak or whomever doesn’t leave you enough time between flights. I made it with 5 min before my zone was called. Too stressful

The flight crew did a good job, the main problem I had was in the layout of the pod itself. I know it does not matter but the connection for the head phones was not A- easy to find, B- very difficult to do based on the placement ( behind the right shoulder, very hard to reach, the type of plug on the frame vs the actual plug of the headphones), C due to the location and the way it connected, it did not allow me to use my own headphones, D- very low quality and very uncomfortable headphones, E- Surprisingly, very old selections of movies, for me, at least. I will still fly with Lufthansa as you deliver a very good product overall and I enjoy the quality of service, the ease and the prices. Thank you.

Loved flying with this airline. Professional, courteous staff who did everything possible to make the long flight comfortable!

The seats were extremely uncomfortable. I spent €25 on internet and never gained access to it. A flight attendant told me she would file a complaint/report on my behalf but it put me in a very difficult situation.

Had to put carry ons under seat and had no legroom!!!

Flight was great (only a short hop from London to Dublin). Wi-Fi available on board(around 2 euros), power sockets, complimentary water and biscuit. Landin/ takeoff all went without a flaw.

Aer Lingus was the actual airline so they handled everything professionally.

Poor BA get a lot of stick and have some problems getting your bags to the same destination BUT the whole experience is very much 5 star and probably due to excellent, helpful and sooo British staff. We travelled in economy plus.

The A350 is a great plane but BA's seating was incredibly tight (eg compared to the same plane as flown by BA's partner Finnair) and with a middle seat it was very claustrophobic

Flight was fine, food better than anticipated and flight attendants were helpful and friendly.

Flight was fine but diverted to a different airport. I was also assigned a seat that I wasn’t allowed to change during the check in process, which was odd.

Economy extremely cramped. Dinner was not good. Breakfast was quite good. Crew was excellent.

Food was pretty good and crew did ok. Boarding was a disaster. Seats and leg room were not conducive to a comfortable flight, especially if you are 6’3” and have the person in front of you leaning their chair all the way back for 9 hours and your are told they are allowed to do that.

Excellent service smooth flight f or the most part food was right now.I'm expectedly good.

They denied us boarding on our scheduled flight and experienced significant disruption to our travel plans because of overbooking the flight!
