Passenger Reports

Was nervous about this flight but honestly didn't need to be. Smooth the whole way, the 3h 10m went by fast.

First-time passenger · July

I always expect the worst on longer flights but this one surprised me. Very little turbulence, only a few small bumps on descent. Manageable even for me.

Nervous flyer · May

Totally smooth January flight. The seatbelt sign came on once briefly over the desert but nothing actually happened. Great trip.
