They have the best fares for what I need but I have never heard anything good/bad about them.

I have only flown with them once. And it was a really bad experience.

I haven't yet but we will be for a portion of the honeymoon. I believe a friend of mine does all the time out to Vegas.

Re: Has anyone ever flown with America West?
FH and I flew with them to Arizona - bad experience but not completely their fault. JFK had fog and we couldn't land so we had to fly into Philadelphia and they provided shuttle buses to JFK. What a long trip with a bunch of unhappy people.
We also flew with them to Las Vegas and had no problems but our fingers were crossed the entire time.

Flew America West YEARS ago , going to Vegas. Wasn't my most positive flight experience, but it wasn't the worst either..
Though the general consensus is a big NEGATIVE for them, overall

Re: Has anyone ever flown with America West?
I flew them once and have since dubbed them America Worst.
What a mess.... their computers went down NATIONWIDE so the flight took off six hours late, I missed my connection in AZ so I had to sleep at the airport - they would not give me a hotel voucher - finally got to SFO and they lost my luggage. What's worse is on the way back to NY, SF got 2 inches of rain in an hour span and the airline not the airport suspended all flights. I told them that I had it and they had to do something to get me home that night. They finally coughed up the money to send me home on a United flight.
Never again!!!!

I flew them to Vegas and didn't have a positive experience either. They are really strict with the weight limits on the baggage. I think it was 50lbs. Plus our flights were delayed.
My Uncle works at JFK and he says everyone calls them Americas Worst.

Re: Has anyone ever flown with America West?
Just flew with them to AZ the middle of March and had no problems. A few years back we flew with them and did have delays, etc. From what I understand, they have improved their service level ratings over the past few years. I would fly with them again.

I flew them within the past couple of years between San Diego and New York and loved them - it might have been the Pepsi though - I'm a Pepsi girl and they're the only airlines I'd been on that served Pepsi. hehe!

Re: Has anyone ever flown with America West?
Unfortunately I have! I will never step foot on one of their planes again. It's a shame too because we had built up quite a few miles.
