I asked for water, received a strange look and was given nothing. I heard the attendant speak English so I know he understood me. overall service was terrible."
Pros: "The flights were to full so seating was easy and the cost was low."
Cons: "Flights outbound and inbound were late. Outbound was re-scheduled six late. Inbound was two hours late getting out. But the flight were to full so seating was easy. The food they served is what they make jobs about - it was terrible."

Pros: "On time service and excellent quick 30 min flight."
Cons: "Flight attendants needs to smile little more."
Pros: "Meal and snack was tasty and piping hot. Plane was brand new 737-800 in great shape. Entertainment system worked as described although there were some glitches with movie playback and the Moving Map program. The flight departed BKK on time! Crew were pro and attentive."
Cons: "Bit of a hard landing in Dhaka, but maybe that's how the pilots have to do it?"
Pros: "The lunch was fresh and very tasty. The personal entertainment system worked well and there was a good variety of programmes. The plane itself was a brand new Boeing 737-800 and was in very nice shape. The crew announcements were consistent and thoughtful."
Cons: "The service was okay. Not great, but satisfactory. The flight departed 45 minutes later than scheduled time. This seems to be the rule rather than the exception. Not sure if this is a Dhaka Airport problem or a Biman problem. Or a bit of both. The landing in Bkk was hard. The pilot pulled the brakes quickly and forcefully immediately after landing. Not sure why."
Pros: "On time."
Cons: "Disorganized boarding, pretty dated interior."
Pros: "Station manager, Mr. Habibur Rahman was very helpful to reschedule ticket. He is very cordial and cooperative. We wish BG has more people like him. Cabin Crew Kobita and Taslim was good and Captain Enam is the best. Cabin was clrean."
Cons: "Inside temperature was very cold and there was not enough blanket for the passengers. But Ms. Kobita was apologing on behalf of BG. Kualampur BG staff did not search much and said no seat availavle on 27 February. But station master Habibur Rahman helped us get three seats. When we were in the plane we saw one fourth seat was empty."
Pros: "We hit bad turbulence just up from Calcutta. But the pilot used his skills to get us to a new altitude and the flight smoothed out. Kudos to the captain and his crew. Good job.....................I don't like that we paid good money for the flight and flew on a Bombardier Dash-8 rather than a Boeing 737-800 like on the way to Calcutta."
Cons: "Snack was really bad (white bread, mystery filling) and some dry cake. They could do better. Maybe shingara or chanachur, or even peanuts. Or even potato chips.............I liked that the flight departed on time."
Pros: "The crew were very responsive, very willing to attend to our requests. The equipment were in very good shape, and working as expected."
Pros: "- The entertainment/distraction module was modern and functioning. Its UI (User Interface) was excellent. There was even a USB port, great for looking at images. The movies available were up-to-date. - The aircraft, a Boeing 737-800, was fresh off the assembly line. It even had that new-airplane smell. None of the seats were busted. Yet."
Cons: "- Mosquitoes infested the jet bridge and the plane. Never seen anything like it. While that was bad enough, the crew began spraying a toxic knock-down cocktail over our heads. The fellow sitting next to me, an Indian, said 'This would never happen in India. People would refuse to fly until the problem was resolved. In India we have standards.' I said 'That's all well and good, but we're not in India. We're in Bangladesh, and people have become inured to unpleasantness. Even me.' Now, my aim's not to pick on Biman. Perhaps the mosquito problem is Dhaka Airport's responsibility and they've clearly dropped the ball. But c'mon, spraying a poisonous mosquito killer INSIDE the cabin filled with passengers? Get real. - The hard and fast landing in Kolkata. Felt like we were hitting the runway too fast. There was a slight bounce. It took a while for the reverse thrusters and brakes to come on. Sure, I'm not a pilot, and to a pilot perhaps this landing was totally normal and within protocol. As a passenger though, I was a bit spooked. I thought 'Gee, I hope this is a looong runway.' Also, the pilot kept saying 'Inshallah.' Inshallah this, Inshallah that. Inshallah translates roughly to 'God willing.' Faith is a personal thing and to each their own. However, I want to have faith that this plane's going to land safely based on the pilot's skill, not on God's will. - The meal. More of a snack, really, and that's OK given the short flight. But the Wonder Bread mystery meat sandwich was disappointing and totally unnecessary. Biman should serve tasty Bangladeshi snacks (chanachur, jhal muri, phuchka, shingara, etc.) rather than poor attempts at Western food -- especially if Biman wants to be taken seriously as the pride of Bangladesh's skies. The dislikes far outweigh the likes this time round. We'll seriously contemplate flying Biman again."
Pros: "Food provided on plane and dinner and breakfast included at Dhaka airport in transit area. If you have a visa you can stay in a hotel but I didn't want to pay for the visa on arrival."
Cons: "Airport is full of mosquitoes"
Pros: "The cabin crew were inattentive. Call buttons went unanswered or were deliberately left. The service was basic. The crew allowed economy class passengers to continuously use our business passengers toilets and spaces, frequenting my space which was an annoyance. The toilet I used were a total wreck with cabinet panel doors left open. On a second visit it was all too apparent that someone had urinated all over the commode and the open panel door. Ridiculous is an understatement ! Not enough due courtesy or cooperation was extended to us the business class passengers when we were trying to stow away our hand luggage. To serve a plate of open mixed nuts then take off is a nonsense as I saw how those plates slid off and caused messes on passengers within my view. The business class seating did not recline enough. The entertainment on offer was totally substandard for the well travelled international passenger whom is woed by other carriers. On my return trip there was no entertainment at all on offer, very strange. Biman is a joke !!! The very dated aircraft interior left everything to be desired. I have deliberately kept many snapshots as evidence. Business class passengers pay that extra for a reason. The whole compliment of passengers for the entite plane were boarded and unboarded through our cabin areas, totally unacceptable and unjustified. The time I tried to purchase two on board duty free items, surprise surprise, yet again was told some nonsense and it was yet again another negative an experience. So overall, I will endeavour never ever to make the mistake of flying with any such substandard an airline whom a-z seem to be either be guided by or employ "clowns" whom are not in touch with the realities and ongoing standards being maintained by other carriers."
Pros: "For supposedly business class, the biman experience was SUB-standard. Those with authority to bring about changes to improve standards, must act soon. Study and implement how competitors are conducting themselves a to z, apart from the space of my seating, all else failed......from the greet, the assistance in storing hand luggage, to the food served and the.dared "entertainment" on offer. ALL need to improve!!!"
Pros: "Nice companion in seat next to me"
Cons: "Dreadful food in business for a dinner flight. Plastic wrapped pieces of white bread with mysterious 3 mm thick substance inside. Pilot apparently aborted landing and did a go around with 45 degree steep turn with extreme nose up attitude. Wow. No explanation of any kind. Seats are worn out in business class. Strong cigarette smoke like stink in cabin. Apparently results from heating elements in oven. Flight staff sprays fumigation bomb inside cabin. Mosquitoes in cabin were robust and impossible to kill. They seem to like."

Pros: "Food was good. Service was good."
Cons: "1. Can you please have air fresheners? After a 2-hour flight the air felt very stale and the human smells were uncomfortable. 2. I always prefer a window seat for the view but my window glass pane was terribly deteriorated from the outside. Didn’t inspire much confidence in the aircraft. Not too significant a complaint but I’d have really appreciated if I could’ve had the view also."
Pros: "The Spicejet staff is very uncooperative . They failed to keep their promise to help change the departure date because of death in the family. They said they will help me change the ticket although I was willing to pay the penalty. Kayak should investigate this ad try to help customers PNR LDGLGQ Ref letter for complaint to Spicejet customers care 04972182 Mahfuzur Rahman Tel 901 2384134"
Cons: "Avoid recommending these agencies for the above mentioned problems. And help reimburse my money Mahfuzur Rahman."
Pros: "Crew was friendly."

Cons: "Seat in front of mine was broken - too leaned backwards to me. Though they notified to prepone the flight time by 15 minutes but in reality it was delayed by 20 minutes!"

Pros: "Comfort, cleanliness ,check in."
Cons: "I was refused food as the stewardess did not have change for ₹500:- & cost of food was ₹200/- odd. Being diabetic I had to go without my insulin.. Luggage arrived quite late in Kolkata."
Cons: "The gave us hard time :( first they were not issuing us the boarding passes. They when I call kayak i have been told rebook our tickets. It was the worst day for us :("
Pros: "Good"
Cons: "Enjoy"

Pros: "The Airconditioner was not working."
Cons: "Confort"
Cons: "Staff was rude. On asking why the flight was delayed, she replied back very badly that it’s the ATC’s fault. The tone was so bad. I felt like lodging official complaint. She misbehaved with another passenger and when he asked about complaint box she said go on site and report us. She hardly cared what we would do. I guess their must be rules to make sure staff does not misbehave with passengers."
Pros: "Very courteous service and yummy onboard food"
Pros: "The best thing about this airline was getting off it at the destination"
Cons: "Everything! Aircraft seating poor! Cabin crew poor! Slow on board service! Bar service not stocked didn't even have soft drinks"
Pros: "The staff were very pleasant and helpful. Boarding was efficient and the flight departed and arrived on time. It was a smaller aircraft so I did not expect there to be much legroom but it was more comfortable than I expected. reasonably priced ticket. Overall it was a very pleasant and smooth journey. Regarding the review which mentions paying for additional baggage with Kiwi.com - I also tried to book additional baggage with them. I paid for the service but was then sent an email and told I could not book additional baggage through their website and should use the Spicejet website. I contacted Spicejet customer service who were very helpful and efficient and booked the additional baggage with them without any problems. The issue is with Kiwi.com and not Spicejet. Based on this experience I would definitely fly with Spicejet again."
Pros: "I got a seat in the exit row, so was fine with leg room. Checking a bag, even though I had not pre-paid to do this, was easy and didn't cost anything."
Cons: "Give out free water - the air inside the plane was stagnate and dry."
Pros: "Punctual and safe flight. Regular service for a budget carrier."
Cons: "This is not a good choice for international travelers. Spicejet is a low cost carrier with a 15kg baggage allowance. I guess most international tourists like me have more to carry. I had 23 kg and ended up paying almost twice the amount of the ticket price. So I think it is better to fly with regular carriers such as Air India."
Pros: "Nothing"
Cons: "Hopeless and endless waiting time !! I would have rather reached the destination faster by railways rather than flying"
Pros: "boarding was very fast and efficient"
Cons: "Flight was delayed by 30 minutes, then we ended up circling for a long time so landed nearly an hour late."
Pros: "Low cost, kept the information up about delays"
Cons: "Delayed in total by 4 hours for a 55 min flight. Missed a whole day of vacation as instead of arriving at 1pm, we got there at 630pm."
Pros: "Inflight service"
Cons: "Old Plan"
Pros: "Not much. A seat? Free cup of water? The 737? Safety. The drill, and cabin check, was mostly up to international standards. The crew were trying hard."
Cons: "No seat belts for infants. No actual control over size or number of hand baggage. The 15kg weight allowance for stowed baggage (that no one told me about) but I did like the way one could pay for excess at the check in desk. strange that refreshments were served 15 mins before arrival exactly when the pilot started his landing announcement on both legs I travelled. On the longer leg they were also offered earlier it is true, so it seemed especially odd to serve again then."
Pros: "On time courteous staff"
Cons: "Delayed by 90 minutes You luggage got fully damaged Who will pay for that Bitter experience had never ever in any flights"
Pros: "Friendly staff, helpful. Quick boarding and departure."
Cons: "Gate changed 3 times and ended up being incorrect. Not much room on the small plane."
Cons: "The air lines third party vendor haven't provided the booking confirmation until the end which was hectic for us , the vendor is kiwi.com"
Pros: "Nothing"
Cons: "Nothing"
Pros: "Air flight girks"
Cons: "Rude on ticket counter. I am English speaking, He was insisting me to understanding in TAMIL. WEIGHT LAGUAGE MORE KG to make money. Lie to give me a window seat."
Cons: "The flight was late. I'd have missed my connecting flight from Delhi to the UK and, therefore, hired an expensive taxi to take me to Delhi. Spicejet could not change my flight to another airline nor issue a refund. They promised a small refund but that hasn't come through."
Cons: "Seats would be better/Cleaner"
