American Airlines remains the worst. At least I got notification my flight was canceled now instead of the middle of the night.

American Airlines cancelled our flight from Sri Lanka last summer. My wife called and they changed us to Qatar Airlines but it got us into JFK to late to make the connection to our flight to Chicago so we had to change to a much later flight.

Now that I am home and I have been reunited with my things, its time for me to slam American Airlines for the worst travel experience of my life. I ended up missing my connecting flight in Philly. While I understand it was late and there was a storm in the area, there's more to it.

Yesterday, I flew out of O’Hare, and because of a mechanical problem, the flight was delayed six hours. American Airlines was kind enough to comp us with $12 in airport credit for dinner. And that bought almost a whole panini.

So my flight keeps getting delayed as the plane is still in CLT. I should have flown Jetblue to Raleigh like always rather than American According to the flight tracker the plane from CLT left at 3:08 but won’t get to Boston until 6:30? They flying to Orlando first or something? That’s a 90min flt

American Airlines is awful. Coming home from the funeral (Mexico) our flight was delayed 23 hours and went downhill from there. Today, spouse is going on work trip. Original flight delayed 5 hours, then cancelled. He’s in Dallas. In the summer. Let’s see if he makes it.

For over a year now, EVERY flight I’ve had with American Airlines has been delayed. I fly about once a month. Has anyone else had this sorta mess? Is this just American or are all airlines in the US this bad right now?

American airlines diverted my flight out of LTC midair to a different city, delayed my next flight, refused to let anyone get off the flight bc it was international (despite not having a pilot anymore) and refused to give me a refund after I got to my destination 12 hours late

I have to go with American Airlines. Southwest is annoying, but they haven’t played with my flights. American Airlines has left my luggage off the plane on an international flight, cancelled flights, overbooked them, pushed them back... I don’t fly American unless I’m not the one buying the ticket.

I am deeply annoyed due to our experience traveling on American Airlines last weekend where they rebooked us on a flight that left 28 hours after our scheduled one, having cancelled our connection while we were taxiing out and couldn’t do anything but wait or pay to rebook on another airline.

Sounds about right for American Airlines. I just got back from a trip to South America delays going and coming. The delay so bad going we missed the connecting flight and had to stay overnight in the hotel.

American Airlines is by far the worst airline I have ever dealt with in my life. From losing my bags the first trip I had with them now causing me to miss my layover flight I ain't flying with them again.

Once had a t-shirt back when I could get away with them that said 'A Lot Of Art Is Bad'.I was flying business class on American Airlines(for work) and a flight attendant got mad at me saying 'I'm an Artist...how dare you wear that!'. My point that Hitler was an artist was probably the wrong response

This is why I only fly delta internationally because now my flight has been delayed 3 times and I could potentially miss my connecting flight to Europe. Very cool American. (Same [expletive] happened when we flew to Europe last on United missed our connection and lost a whole day because of delays!)

Just went from first class on American to the worst boarding assignment on Southwest. Thanks for delaying the first flight on my trip and then cancelling the return flight @AmericanAirlines. I’m going to love getting up at 1 am and racing to the airport.

Worst flight experience flying American Airlines @americanair.bsky.social. Delayed 6 hrs. Told us our seats would be assigned “at the gate” which NO ONE WAS AT until 10min b4 boarding. Now my wife & I, traveling w our dog, can’t sit together. No apology, no explanation. Never flying them again.

Don't know if I hate American Airlines, or if I'm just incredibly frustrated with how bad it is. Supposed to be on a flight 4 hrs ago. Now I'm going to be stuck in Chicago overnight because flights keep getting delayed. Why does this always happen when I fly American?

I was flying from Miami to DC a couple years ago and the American Airlines flight I was on got diverted to Newark because of bad weather. I had to sit in the airport for 3 hours waiting for a new flight back to DC and it was not pleasant lol.

I explained that due to an American Airlines caused delay, we missed our connection and thus were unable to use the upgrade I paid for. I requested a refund of the upgrade only, not the flight. The request was denied because we "used all tickets". I clarified just the upgrade (3/5)

Good news: I got a refund on the insurance I purchased in relation to my flight Bad news: I didn't get the refund on the ticket I booked via a third party for an American airlines flight because of some policy about not being able to refund a ticket that you cancelled yourself

If I were an airline and could hold a flight for three minutes to a tiny airport to let one person whose previous flight was delayed get on I would. But that's not how American Airlines thinks so now I have to get my bag, rent a car, and drive until midnight to get home!
