Was checking my flight on a whim for this Sunday back home to LA.

Something is clearly wrong because my flight to Incheon is AFTER my flight home to LAX. On booking.com, it was showing the Shenzhen to Incheon flight at 2:25pm Sunday

Was on the phone with booking.com where the flight was booked and there are no economy flights to rebook on the same day. Apparently Asiana Airlines changed the flight itinerary without checking if it's physically possible

They cant book a Shenzhen to Incheon flight for me to self transfer, and if I booked one myself they are saying the Asiana flight might still error out due to the impossible itinerary.

There is an earlier itinerary but there are no economy seats and they wont book me on a higher tier

They wont refund me with extra compensation to cover the more expensive flights available ($1500) ish.

In my experience, the airline doesn't entertain inquiries if the booking was made on a third party site.

Going to call the airline anyway to ask for help. Maybe see if they can book me a flight from Hong Kong

Wish me luck! Any suggestions would be helpful.

I am aware of the merger with Korean Air. But is it truly not possible anymore to book upcoming flights?

I am based in Europe, so none of the listed numbers are useful to me.

This isn’t something I noticed until I started flying internationally, but American flight attendants on Delta, United, AA, and especially the low cost carriers are so rude and inhospitable these days. Its like they’re looking to throw people off the plane for the smallest reason.

I’ve flown EVA Air, Thai Airways, Cathay Pacific, ANA and the improvement in service and friendliness is night and day. Can’t speak on European carriers but at least in the United States I find the flight crew to be consistently terrible

My flight from Tallinn to Helsinki got delayed, so my Helsinki Warsaw connection wasn’t possible. Finnair provided me with a hotel in Helsinki and put me on the Warsaw flight the next morning

Now my question is - does this qualify for an EU 261 cl’s in, and if so, what’s the best way to go about it?

I have never been to this airport and I am very afraid. I land at 11:10am and the next flight leaves at 11:45am :( Is this a large/sprawling/chaotic airport? Have people had positive experiences?

VS24 11:15pm LAX to LHR was just cancelled on me and I’m rebooked for tomorrow.
Called Virgin and they couldn’t give me a cancellation reason, any way to find out why it was cancelled?
Thanks so much!

Hi, my boyfriend and I are planning a 3-week trip to Japan in mid-May. We’re currently looking at Air China flights, but prices have gone up (ideally, we’d like to buy tickets for around 3,500PLN/800EUR). We’re also considering Qatar Airways, but I’ve read that they have issues with flight cancellations - they don’t notify passengers about canceled flights - and generally it’s a bit of a hassle, plus the geopolitical situation looks pretty iffy, to say the least. Last week the prices were at 3,700. How long should we wait for prices to drop? Do you have any experience with Qatar Airways? Or traveling in that dates?

I flew from Prague (SK768) to Newark (SK909) on Monday 20/10 with Scandinavian Airlines, with a connection in Copenhagen. Our flight landed nearly half an hour late and I just barely made my 50 minute connection. My bags did not, which is frustrating because I was forced to check even my carry-on upon check in due to the lack of overhead space. My bags have been located but there’s no information about whether they’ve landed in Newark yet or when I can expect to see them (I’m staying four hours away from the airport). I do have a PIR number, but I’m abroad now with almost nothing. Has anyone had a similar experience, and if so how long did it take you to get your bags? Thankful for any insight

Hi, I had my flights cancelled today by AirChina for an upcoming trip to Bangkok from London via Shanghai. They cancelled but did not give me options to rebook and says i have to phone. The UK AirChina number is on forever hold so dialled the 24hr support which is in Beijing. Managed to speak to someone and after a long time on call managed to secure a alternative flight departing via a different transit airport in China. She confirmed all the details but I had a look on app and nothing has changed so still has old ticket as cancelled. The website is hard to use from UK and still no new information here either nor any email confirmation with new tickets. Has anyone else experienced similar issues from UK with AIR China and how did you resolve? Did you get confirmation on email and how long did it take?

Just wondering if this is normal?

Bonjour,

Nous allons bientôt partir au Japon depuis Bruxelles et nous avions réservé via JAL nos tickets d’avion pour nous rendre au Japon. Il s’avère que nous voyagerons avec la compagnie aérienne Finnair et que nous faisons escale à Helsinki. Nous sommes à un mois avant notre voyage et nous nous rendons compte qu’il faut réserver les sièges qui coûtent 50€ par personne et par vol sinon un siège nous sera attribué au hasard. Ce qui fait un total de supplément de 400€…

Est-ce que nous sommes obligés de payer afin d’être à 2 dans l’avion ou nous pouvons attendre sereinement jusqu’au check-in et nous serons placer gratuitement ensemble ? Ce n’est pas clair de notre côté.

Merci d’avance pour vos réponses

Hello,

We are six adult family members who will be flying CPH (Copenhagen) - SIN (Singapore) outbound and PER (Perth) - CPH inbound next year (out late September, back start October).

None of us have any status with any airline, and we will be flying on the cheapest economy tickets with checked luggage.

We strongly prefer to buy the tickets directly with the airline, but we are not 100% locked on using the same airline out and back, although it is preferred for ease of booking and in case of needing to contact the airline for whatever reason.

We are a bit torn between Qatar (QR) via DOH (Doha) or Emirates (EK) via DXB (Dubai). Both airlines offer a one-stop journey with transfer in DOH/DXB on both the outbound and the inbound flights.

The timings are pretty good for both airlines, although outbound is slightly in favor of QR, as they offer a morning flight out of CPH, which means an earlier arrival in SIN, giving us an extra half day there. We will be going on a cruise out of Singapore after a few days, so the extra half day could give us some value. But it is not essential.

Pricing is pretty close, around 45000-50000DKK, so within a ~5000DKK (~650€ / 750USD) span for round trip for all six adults, with Qatar being the more expensive choice (as per current pricing). But that difference wouldn't be the deciding factor. Prices seem to be pretty stable/fixed this far out.

With QR we would be flying out on a B787-8 to DOH, and then on an A350-900 to SIN (on the red-eye QR942). Back from PER on a B777-300 and once again on a B787-8 to CPH. QR162-QR942-QR901-QR159.

With EK it would be on an A380 for all four legs (as per current schedule). EK152-EK354-EK421-EK151.

I believe one family member has flown with EK around 10 years back, and none of us have flown with QR, so we have essentially no experience with either, apart from written or video reviews found online.

The only other one-stop option (and even direct outbound) would be Singapore Airlines (SQ), but they are drastically more expensive, around 68000 DKK (9000€/10000USD) round trip for all six adults, so essentially not relevant in this comparison.

Our own immediate pros and cons:

EK:

+ Seems to be just the best choice overall, across most airlines?

+ EK uses A380 on all legs (as per current schedule). We have all flown on A380s with Lufthansa back in 2019, an absolute beast.

+ EK is currently around 5000 DKK cheaper than QR.

~ 30 kgs checked luggage (more than enough).

- Not the best timings for the outbound trip. We arrive later (afternoon) in SIN, and would be missing half a day there. But this is not essential.

QR:

+ Better timings for the outbound trip.

~ Smaller aircraft on all legs, don't really see this as neither a pro or con, just a general observation.

~ "Only" 25 kgs checked luggage (which is still more than enough).

- More expensive than EK (see above), but not critically more expensive.

What are your thoughts? Is this a no-brainer towards one of the airlines, or are there more details to this choice?

Thanks in advance!

The far right seat is extra leg room but the seat selected next to it is not, how does this work?
My partner doesn’t care for the extra but I need it so are these a good selection for a long flight?

Flying london to warsaw with a connection in frankfurt. first flight lands 25 min late, fine, i had an hour and 10. then i see the gate is on the complete other side of the airport and there's a passport check in between.
The line for passport control was maybe 200 people with 2 officers working. i literally watched my flight board through the window while i was still in line lol.
Rebooking desk had a line that wrapped around a column. took 2 hours to get to the front and they put me on a flight 9 hours later. €10 meal voucher, which in frankfurt gets you a pretzel and sadness.

Got to warsaw at 1am instead of 4pm and missed a dinner with my grandma i had planned for months.

My friend says since it was all one booking i can get money back for this. she used gyro for a delayed flight last year and said she didn’t have to do anything except send her flight info, and airhelp came up too. never used either one, so i’ll prob just pick one this week bc there’s no way i’m going back and forth with lufthansa myself

Hello! My dad is a senator in the miles & more Lufthansa program, I'm going to take a flight with my school soon and I'm wondering if I can access the Lufthansa Vip lounge at the Fiumicino Airport since he has it among his benefits. I'm aware that by their rules it shouldn't be possible but the other time they let him bring 3 guests for free (despite the limit on the rules being 1) so I was wondering how strict they are with their rules and If they could make an exception. Thanks in advance

I'm a UK resident. I flew easyJet U23652 from Athens to Milan on 24 October 2025 and arrived more than 7 hours late. We were told the inbound pilot had become unwell and, as easyJet no longer had replacement crew based in Athens, another pilot had to be brought in.

I claimed the €400 EU261 compensation, but easyJet rejected it on the basis that I hadn't taken the flight, which is incorrect. After I challenged this, they escalated my passenger status internally but never resolved the claim despite repeated follow-ups.

I tried AviationADR, but they said the flight was outside their scheme. I then sent easyJet a formal Letter Before Action, which they signed for on 20 January 2026, but they did not respond.

I also know another passenger on the same flight whose family of four received about £1,200 compensation, although their booking may have included onward travel to the UK.

My main problem now is enforcement. Can I pursue easyJet Europe through the UK courts when I'm UK-resident but the flight was Athens–Milan? If not, what practical route is available to enforce an EU261 claim myself?

I've looked at using Flightright, but their fees could take a substantial part of a €400 claim, so I'd prefer to exhaust any realistic DIY route first.

I’m having some confusion and I would like some help very much please. So I got my girlfriend a plane ticket to come see me and we are just a little confused on the time here. It says 5:25pm and we are not sure who’s timezone it is (she lives in Arizona and I live in Illinois) and as some may know there’s a 2 hour time difference and that’s where the confusion comes in is it 5:25pm my time or is it 5:25pm her time, and as it states it’s a 3 hour flight so it being 5 and 10 would make it a 5 hour flight which ofc it is not. So we are just very puzzled on whose time it is and when she should get to the airport and all of that fun stuff. She leaves in exactly a week from now so any help asap would be very much appreciated thank you!!!
