Pros: Good Service, Very Clean, Dominant in the U.S., Food, Fleet, Prices
Cons: Delays

A good way to fly, with great service, Clean Aircraft, and food to get you through the flight. I have flown three times on Northwest, from Peoria, IL to Minneapolis, MN, from New Orleans, LA to White Plains, NY, and...

Pros: Ontime, clean airplanes, nice people Cons: Detroit terminal was very crowded
I got a great deal on a recent trip with an airline I haven't flown in a long time. When I found the great price I was initially worried about booking because the flights were actually Continental code-share, but operated by Northwest Airlines. Visions...

Pros: None Cons: Can't schedule crews on their flights
I am a consultant and am on the road every week. So far this year I have flown over 70 segments on Northwest/Messaba Airlines. To date in 2000 I have spent over $10,000 on fares. Having established that I have been a good customer, here's my...

Pros: The Door didn't pop open during the flight. Cons: The Door didn't close when on the ground!
Flying with Northwest has been a nightmare.
Although I have no complaints with their domestic service, I had a terrible time on my way back from Amsterdam to New York.
I was connecting in Amsterdam after a 9 hour flight. I had a 3...

Pros: great last minute deals, flies to many cities Cons: mediocre service and updates, subpar cleaning of airplanes
When I fly with an airline, I don't mind delays. Okay, if I have a connection it can really make me antsy, but for the most part I feel they're inevitable, and many times part of making a flight safer. Safety is always a plus in my book. Delays only...

Pros: All Asian cabin-crew on intra-Asian flights ; good connections via Tokyo Cons: Not too bad food ; stale cabin-service ; mediocre inflight entertainment
My main experience with Northwest took place on a return trip journey between Seattle and Singapore in June, 2001 , while I was making a summer vacation in the Canadian Rockies. A hunch tells me that the worst of North American airlines is shown during...

Pros: Friendly staff, flights were on time and stayed airborne as planned Cons: No in-flight movie, short subject programming was the same in both directions of travel
I've been hooked by a frequent flyer program. Last summer before traveling on business I became a member of the Northwest WorldPerks frequent flyer program, and even though I don't normally travel more than two or three times a year, I use Northwest...

Pros: Professional pilots and flight attendants, very commendable handling of unaccompanied minors Cons: Crabby, nasty gate attendants
We all know that infamous Northwest story of the dreadful Detroit blizzard of 1998. Holding passengers on a grounded flight at Detroit Metro for eight hours, without facilities. Northwest surpassed all expectations with that one incident.

Pros: Not much unless you are close to one of the hubs. Cons: Customer service needs to be improved.
I have flown on well over 80 flights in the last couple of years, and some of my flights were with Northwest. From my own experience and other people’s experience, I would not recommend Northwest Airlines even if I wanted to.
The morale at...

Pros: Top-class service by in-flight crew, Fast takeoffs and landings Cons: Late takeoffs/landings, rude ground staff
Generally, I would recommend that you spend more on other airlines. While I have been pleased by the quality of in-flight staff, I think there are other things missing in this airline.
During my first flight in Northwest (Manila-Honolulu via...

Pros: None that I can think of Cons: Rude customer service, extreme delays, passengers are not kept up to date of problems, etc.
Some may feel that this review belongs in horror stories, but I have heard too many other families with the same terrible experiences with Northwest to put it in that category.
I feel like two flights with Northwest was more than enough for me...

Pros: safe cheap flights Cons: none
I have begun to fly often in my line of work. I must say that it has been my usual experience to find Northwest Airlines to fly where I need to go, and to be my best price.
I have never been delayed, and my luggage has always arrived in a...

Pros: Can't think of any. Unless it is that I got "there and back." Cons: Pretty much everything else.
Just before my Christmas vacation, I was talking with a friend about the decline in Northwest service. She said that all stewardesses used to have to attend modeling school before applying. I flew out the next day on Northwest Airlines and realized...

Pros: Cheap (Priceline.com), Friendly Cons: lost my luggage, couple short delays
I recently flew Northwest Airlines while visiting relatives for the Thanksgiving holiday. I had never flown Northwest before but since they accepted by bid for airline tickets through Priceline.com I had to give them a try. I flew roundtrip from...
