Pros: "Turboprop, smaller plane, boarding stairs - always fun."

Pros: "Turboprop, smaller plane, boarding stairs - always fun."

Pros: "The attention of the crew is very good. They are very friendly and, on the return trip there was attention of Argentine hostess. The meal options are very good as the vegetarian menu I previously requested. Fly NZ30 ON FEBRUARY 28 th"

Cons: "The seat I reserved paying additional dollars to have no one in front of me is bad. The table has little stability and the space that one acquires to stretch the legs is dangerously occupied by food carts that pass very close. The seats are tight. And the great kindness of the crew succumbs to the bad Argentine behavior of occupying the empty seats. On the flight back to Bs.As. many overweight people were overcrowded by the bad luck they had when buying their tickets, however, thin people, who did not pay for better places, were located in an empty seat where, usually, they go familiar with babies and traveled peacefully in a place that did NOT correspond. We all understand that the spaces are small but they should take better care of the passengers and, by common sense, if there are free seats, offer them to those who for physical reasons and their full rows are uncomfortable throughout the trip which, in itself, is very long . I suggest that you put options of Latin Spanish doblabas movies on the flights you make from Buenos Aires to Auckland. FLY NZ30 on February 28 th"

Pros: "On time. Like the 787."

Cons: "The vegetarian evening meal."

Pros: "Everything."

Cons: "Nothing."

Cons: "I couldn’t get the seat to recline."

Pros: "The crew was great but the seats were not."

Cons: "Roomier seats and meals should be served a little bit closer in between"

Pros: "Upgrading to Skycoach giving extra leg room was well worth it."

Pros: "Crew was really nice however slightly absent during the flight."

Cons: "Drinks should have been more frequently offered . Refreshments/water seemed hard to come by I had to chase them down in the galley only to get luke warm water...? Seats are pretty cramped and small with not much room."

Cons: "They need to bring around water more often. And actually offer it to people in the window seat."

Pros: "The sky couch is always very nice."

Cons: "We told the crew the water tasted funny, like dirt, they said it was fine, just had lemon in it. Pretty sure we know the difference between lemon and dirt taste."

Pros: "on time, crew were friendly"

Cons: "have to pay to watch movie"

Pros: "Service and food choices. Seating and the mattress for bed."

Pros: "Service was very good despite our one hour delay! Everyone was appropriately apologetic though."

Cons: "Flight was one hour delayed not due to equipment but because the ground crew failed to load the cargo in time! That was annoying. (Then an ill patient had to be removed resulting in a further delay trying to retrieve her luggage.) I felt bad for those with tight connections."

Pros: "same as above"

Cons: "unalbe to select seats so we were spread out"

Pros: "Everything. A modern comfortable plane. It's embarrassing for airlines from America because they pale in comparison. I would gladly pay $100 more and fly in style IN COACH! Can't wait for the return flight."

Pros: "No security on this regional flight; made it simple to board. Very quiet for a turboprop aircraft. Boarding was delayed and not well announced."

Pros: "Entertainment options were of great variety and easy to use"

Pros: "The service was very good, food good, seats comfortable. The sears on the way to my destination seemed roomier than on way home, maybe a different type of plane?"

Cons: "departed to late .. nearly missed connecting Auck- Hong Kong. Suitcase was left behind .. will receive 498 hrs later .. not good enough"

Pros: "Free wine"

Cons: "For how much a ticket cost, they really take advantage of you. 7.5 kilo max carry on... what a joke. My bag ways that without anything packed. It's time for some competition to right their ship."

Pros: "Crew was very nice"

Cons: "Seat back did not recline, free still water not available on touch screen ordering"

Pros: "Boarding from last row first"

Cons: "Food was just okay."

Cons: "I dislike the system where some people are served food and their neighbors are not and no one knows if or why they are being fed or not fed. Apparently, I was in some sort of category where I was fed and my seatmate was not and neither of us knew why. Also, the entertainment being pay-to-play is just stupid."

Pros: "Short, friendly people and was on time. Awesome all around"

Cons: "All was good"

Pros: "After finding it in the airport everything went extremely well. Able to find the flights and get to the gates with plenty of time. I did not have access to my email, but did see all the notices and appreciate that. Will travel with email access in the future."

Pros: "Seats, service"

Cons: "Wait and confusion. I n auckland"

Pros: "What a nice surprise! Very friendly in-flight agents. They even topped off my water bottle :) GREAT movies and TV options. Actually edible food... Can't beat this affordable comfort!"

Pros: "Good was good, good movie selection, comfortable"

Cons: "The screaming child in the next row. Which is nobody's fault."

Pros: "New plane"

Cons: "Everything else"

Pros: "Food and entertainment were great. Enough space to be comfortable. Crew was nice and attentive."

Pros: "Everything went well. boarding and check in."

Cons: "Seat spacing: way too close in economy. When person in front puts seat back, could not stand up to get out of seat. Got leg cramps trying to shuffle out sideways stooped over row of seats in front and rear hitting faces of occupants in my row. Refuse to fly on this airline any more until reasonable seat spacing is provided for price paid. Don't like standing up the whole flight because one cannot get into or out of seat."

Pros: "Boarding was efficient and the cabins were welll presented. Take off was on time."

Cons: "A very small glitch was the cabin service. The cabin announcements were read out too fast to follow! Also, the cabin crew seemed to be in a rush to move the food tray away even though I was still sipping my juice. Maybe this was the early morning energy ...Slow down, guys!"

Pros: "FLIGHT TIME"

Cons: "UNCOMFORTABLE SEATS , NO SEATS FOR FAMILIES TO SIT TOGETHER"

Cons: "The plane required the note book to view current movie but the note book has to have the app installed before take off. It was not properly draw my attention in advance via e-mail or text messages. For such a long flight, Qantas should have a better plane to server this route. Totally disappointed."

Pros: "I’ll lile it all"

Cons: "My foot rest didn’t extend all the way up, button was broken"

Pros: "Super easy flight out of Auckland. Arrived in Nelson ahead of schedule."

Cons: "...the person coughing behind me..."

Pros: "Watched movies to pass the time. Trip uneventful but 2 hours late"

Cons: "The announcements by cabin crew on board were hard to understand as English not first language"

Cons: "The gate displayed on the boards in the departures area did not match the actual gate (17C). Confused a lot of passengers as the gate displayed was through the international area. Limited seating at the gate."

Pros: "The crew was very friendly and attentive."

Pros: "Food was a improvement luggage transfer to connecting flight great a"

Cons: "All good"

Pros: "We sat on the runway for an hour. The pilot communicated frequently about the delay. Efforts were made to connect passengers to their missed connections."

Cons: "Several of the flight attendants were rude. The food was not good. I should have known since the flight attendant serving me had not tried any of the options and couldn't recommend any to me. The plane does not have enough bathrooms for the number of passengers."

Pros: "Handling our expenses during the delay"

Cons: "Changed our seats. We were not put next to each other. Reservations did a horrible job, could not get any information from them on my booking. The rebooking procedures were handled poorly. People with connections should have been handled separately and in a different way. Some people got rescheduled on earlier flights than we were told but did not know about it so many missed their rescheduled flights."

Pros: "Staff were friendly."

Cons: "A tiny pla? A bumpy flight. You should get the heads up about such small planes."

Pros: "Great service, easy flight."

Cons: "Seats too cramped and very difficult to get in and out of when the seats in front recline.” Dreadful mid flight snack."

Cons: "Entertainment system was run down and not functioning well"

Pros: "Friendly customer service crew, nice amenities kit, and quick boarding."

Cons: "Old aircraft (737) let’s down a good company and frequent flyers."

Pros: "Crew was great, friendly and accommodating. Food was good for airline food"

Cons: "Seat rows are so close together that you have to pay extra for a decent amount of leg room."

Pros: "Excellent food, especially breakfast"

Cons: "Arriving at an external gate"

Cons: "cramped seats. a miniscule snack, with no napkin to clean up with"

Pros: "No issues, quick and friendly."

Cons: "N/A"

Cons: "The boarding and flight was delayed. It was explained why, though. Other than than everything was perfect."

Cons: "- delayed flight because of delayed crew - They've had many crew injuries helping customers moving overhead luggage, so they asked customers to sort their own luggage out. Hey, how about teaching OH&S to staff and employing staff that can perform their duties?"

Cons: "2 hours late leaving"

Pros: "Overall, one of the best international flying experiences I have ever had."

Pros: "Everything went smoothly, cabin crew were friendly and helpful. Food was tasty, but portion rather small."

Cons: "Didn't like that every time someone nearby used the entertainment - watched a film I think, my film changed."

Pros: "Complimentary healthy food, iPads, smiling staff"

Pros: "Crew on the plane was a group of wonderful ladies. Always smiling & pleasant, even when they had to move people around. Great service with a smile."

Cons: "No info ahead of time about checking in. Once we got to the airport, I was told that I should have known better & checked in 24 hours prior. initially, the agent said that all seats are appropriated randomly. At the gate, I'm told different. I had to fight tooth & nail to get a seat next to my wife (who often gets airsick). It didn't feel good to have to argue & make a scene to accomplish this."

Cons: "Delayed Boarding and they didn't say anything."

Cons: "I made the same flight last year on a newer plane. This time I missed having water bottles available at all times."

Pros: "The crew was pleasant and helpful."

Pros: "Was bumped off fjight. Due to not being checked in by Jetstar. Crew was nice and put us on a later Hawaiian."

Pros: "All the good qualities are there. Check in was a breeze and very friendly handling our surfboard. However, the plane is old and needs a refurbishment, I can't believe how small the personal screens are! Whilst the crew were very friendly, always searching for a specific drink you request, but the food quality was average - I'm taking my own sandwich next time."

Pros: "Nothing to be honest.."

Cons: "food was pathetic, served late, i have always found the Qantas crew to be rude. No change to that. Somethings dont change. this is one of them. I first flew w Qantas in 2005 in business class, and since then i have downgraded. But the attitude hasn't changed. It's as if we are doing service by choosing Qantas...."

Pros: "Everything was fine. I have flown with Qantas many times, and it was same as usual"

Cons: "I had no problems"

Pros: "Thoughtful and friendliness of the Crews"

Cons: "None that i can think of"

Pros: "Staff was courteous and the in flight food was good"

Cons: "The flight was delayed 1 and a half hours to start with. Although the entertainment system on the plane is very good, half way through the flight it started having issues. Movies stopped playing and then the whole system locked up. First it was just individual seats that had problems but eventually the entire plane was unable to view anything. Even a complete reboot did not help. We spent the last 6hrs of the flight unable to view anything even though they repeatedly tried to reset the system"

Pros: "Best price for derect flight. Crew was pleaant , food was ok. Would fly same flight again."

Pros: "The Qantas legs of the flight were their usual stellar levels."

Cons: "The Jet Airways flight was to their usual ok level. Nothing especially wrong with fit, but it was not five-star level."

Cons: "Seats did not fully recline in business class"

Pros: "Comfortable seats, excellent customer service from staff, and excellent in-flight entertainment. Meals from JFK -> Sydney was good."

Cons: "Meals from Sydney -> JFK was terrible, not sure why since going to Sydney was great."
