Cons: They treat customers like dirt, and employees even WORSE

There's airlines I like, airlines I don't like, and airlines that I just really don't care about one way or another. Then there's Northwest Airlines. Northwest is a rare breed that's in it's own little niche of my world view of airlines: airlines I can't ...

Cons: Hard to see the movie, some exit row seats are obstructed

This is a detailed account of my most recent experiences on Northwest. I traveled from Detroit to London Gatwick on Thurdsay, June 23, 2005. I returned via the same route on Thursday August 5, 2005. After such a long international flight, I have ...

Pros: Low fares, decent flight schedule

I remember flying Northwest Airlines years ago as a kid- and that's about it. If it was anything like it is today, I probably blocked it out- too many bad memories! With centrally located hubs in Detroit, Minneapolis and Memphis, it appears to ...

Cons: None - maybe good things are beginning to happen for NWA employees!

In spite of the multitude of complaints from unhappy travelers regarding Northwest Airlines (NWA), I have found very little to complain about, as they have been very reliable for me and my husband, and I would choose them for ...

Pros: Good Flight Crew. On Time Service.
Cons: Unprofessional ticket agent. Slow baggage claim. Mediocre food.

When two friends and I were planning a trip to Oregon, we decided to book on Northwest Airlines, the dominant carrier where we live. Northwest offered non-stop flight service from Minneapolis (MSP) to our destination of Portland OR (PDX) at an acceptable ...

Pros: Seems to have improved lately.
Cons: They have given me a few horrible flights; are unfriendly, and they don’t sell sandwiches.

Northwest Airlines have been merged with Delta Airlines and is currently undergoing an integration process with Delta which will continue until early 2010. Therefore you can still fly with Northwest Airlines, which I recently did (in August). My oldest ...

Cons: Northwest flights often are higher priced than other airlines.

We needed to fly down to California for a family event. We had put off buying the plane tickets as we were trying to arrange a few extra days there and all of a sudden it was right around the corner! So here I was trying to find a non-stop flight with ...

Pros: Worked for this 'travel-newbie' !
Cons: One uncomfortable seat out of four planes?

.. The world demands the 465th (Update: 466th!) review of ...

Pros: sometimes cheaper than other options, good times from Boston to the west coast
Cons: poor service, no food or entertainment on cross-country flights, lots of delays and cancellations

Pros: Clean aircraft, efficient service, attractive airline lounges
Cons: Service is as brisk as it is efficient, little warmth to service

My most recent trip on Northwest Airlines was actually something of a pleasant surprise. I had avoided them scrupulously for years, having only flown on them once last summer, quite by accident. This was a Priceline trip, so I came to the...

Pros: Good service, fair aircraft, clean, comfortable.
Cons: Lousy partner airlines, air hubs not great, website not very good. Chaotic check-in.

http://www.nwa.com/ I was recently a passenger – or as the airline industry dubs me “Self-Loading Cargo” aboard Northwest airlines flights from London to Denver via the Twin Cities of Minneapolis and St Paul. I have to say I was pretty ...

Cons: Customer service can be hit or miss, some older planes need updates

Since I live in Detroit, and one of Northwest Airline's main hubs is the Detroit Metro Airport, I have to fly Northwest unless I want to pay through the nose. I recently got a tour of the new WorldGateway Terminal at Detroit Metro Airport (we refer to...

Pros: Landing, watching "Frasier" for a half hour (when the headset worked)
Cons: Poor customer service, limited space, delays, bad food

Pros: ?
Cons: customer-hostile from website to baggage delivery

Having grown up in Minnesota and gone to college in Michigan, I have a very long history of flying Northwest Airlines, particularly the Minneapolis/Detroit (hub to hub) route. As I recall, Northwest was a leader in eliminating food service on domestic ...
