TWA

Pros: It didn't crash
Cons: Hideous seating, ghastly "meals," schedule misinformation that looked deliberate

For years, TWA was right up there at the top of my fave airline list, right behind Pan Am - there was something terribly romantic about these big birds that took on the entire world, disregarding boundaries, and going wherever I wanted to go. My...

Pros: All flights were on time.
Cons: Expected food on the longer flight, which I didn't get.

Please bear in mind that this is the first time that I have flown in 12 or 13 years, so this review is based on one flight. It's also based on the only airline that I have dealt with in a long time. I remember TWA being my preferred airlines from all...

Pros: attentiveness, hassle free trip, affordable, friendly attendants, fairly comfortable, on-time flights
Cons: bells and whistles were absent, but this was expected ;)

I'm really going against majority rule with this opinion, but I truly was impressed with my flying experience with TWA. I flew with them on a recent trip to Cleveland, leaving from Orlando and flying to St. Louis, and then taking a connecting...

Pros: On-Time
Cons: High Consumer Complaints

If you've read even a few of the airline reviews, you certainly realize that pretty much everyone has had a "nightmare experience". Most of the stories I've read could have happened on any carrier -TWA, United, American, Delta, etc. While I...

Pros: NONE
Cons: Too many to list.

I just returned from a trip to Minnesota to visit friends. I could not have asked for a more enjoyable vacation than spending time with my good friends and letting our kids play. Well, yes, I suppose I COULD ask for a more enjoyable vacation, but it...

Pros: Punctual
Cons: uncomfortable

I used to think that airlines are basically the same. Not one stands out as particularly better or particularly worse. They all are designed to move the most people as quickly, efficiently, and as cheaply as possible. In general I fly United or...

Pros: Decent price, Sincere politics, A scary landing
Cons: Unfriendly stewards, Gate changes at the last second

I just recently flew TWA on my trip to Las Vegas. It was the first time I have flown TWA so I was extra careful to pay attention to my experience. Since getting involved in Epinions, it's funny how I notice things more and more and pay more attention...

Pros: cheap tickets, got there and back in one peace
Cons: most other things

In the past several years, I've been flying a lot. Having been with many different airline companies, I think that I've now experienced the best (Austrian Airlines, Continental), as well as the worst (Tower Air) of them all. I don't fly first class, and...

Pros: Cheap
Cons: Dingy planes; awful food; none too prompt

TWA is old-school, and not in the good way.

I flew TWA from Los Angeles to New York for a recent weekend trip, and though I can't put my finger on any single disastrous or distasteful incident, the trip compels me to not recommend TWA....

Pros: Few restrictions; cheap and easy to use; feel free to move about the country
Cons: Must be under 25

If you're a student between 14 and 24 you're eligible to purchase TWA's Youth Travel Pak--four one-way flight coupons for $548. You can use the coupons for travel between any two points in the continental US, Toronto, and MONTEGO BAY, SANTO DOMINGO, and...

Pros: Cheap, gets you there
Cons: Employee-Owners not always helpful, maintenance issues

I recently traveled on TWA on a round trip flight from San Antonio to Norfolk. I usually fly cheaply on Continental thanks to American Express; however, this time one of my travel dates landed squarely on a date that had been blacked out by Continental....

Pros: None noted
Cons: Courtesy of TWA-nightmare vacation, very rude customer service

I would like to take the time to make you aware of the treatment my husband and I received last week from numerous TWA employees. Our experience has opened our eyes to how passengers are at the mercy of the representative in front of them and the lack...

Pros: Good service, decent fares
Cons: Hub is St. Louis which is inconvenient for me

I recently moved away from St. Louis and have realized that TWA isn't as traveler friendly as it was when I lived in it's hub. I managed to collect quite a few frequent flier miles with TWA over the past few years. Now that I don't live in St. Louis,...

Pros: They probably look good in my Hard Rock Cafe - London tees
Cons: They probably look good in my Hard Rock Cafe - London tees!!!

What's worse than a company who's employees steal? A company who doesn't care that their employees steal.

I had heard bad things from a family member and a couple of friends about losing their belongings, locked and unlocked alike, from their...

Pros: Prompt flights, attentive, friendly service, and I didn't have to pay for it!
Cons: None that I really know of.

I could never afford to fly.

My family never had the cash to afford a plane ticket to anywhere, but I'd heard the horror stories of air travel. Lost luggage, delayed flights, missed connections, rude attendants, runway traffic, you name it,...
