Ratings and reviews

It's a great idea. Alas! It only worked half the time. After a reasonably successful use one way, on my return flight the app seemed to "brick" after I tried the RFC and QR code at the quick bag check. The app would run, even after a cold start, but wouldn't display any data even after scanning the code. I had to clear cache, clear storage and log in again to get back in action.

this app is designed so poorly it makes me want to never book a flight through them ever again. i was just trying to check in for my flight and it took this app 27 minutes to let me check in. have to acknowledge the real ID page every 30 seconds. each page takes minutes to load. and then gets an error because it times out consistently. you need a credit card on file to check in.

I live 20 mins from the airport and have no way to filter out options from airports from further away. cannot filter on selected airport only. why are you making this app worse? why can't you add a filter for departing only from selected airport or a toggle that I want other options? for the live of God do not make flights return to airports 200 miles from home again since this started. on a round trip I want to return to my original airport.

What’s new

In this release, we’re continuing to focus on streamlining and improving the app to make it easier to use and provide more ways for you to self-serve.
