Lion Air review by kevin 2017-06-07

the customer support is very not-helping but the flight is a fair one considering the price that is relatively low in pair of other flight(s).

Lion Air review by Abigail 2017-02-03

This is the worst flight in my life. Almost 6 hours delay from Penang to Kuala Namu, Medan and crew on the gate desk didn't give a proper explanation. They ONLY gave us fried rice with an egg which was in super small portion (don't need to tell you the taste) and a cup of water, they delivered it 8.45pm when people already got hungry on 7.00pm. All of my friends already told me don't choose Lion Air like ever. I never believe them, know I do! I won't choose Lion Air again in the future, and if you want to choose this flights please think twice. Don't waste your time, you better spend a lil bit money for other great flights. Lion Air is the worse. I had my parents and my aunty and uncle with me, can you imagine how tired they were waiting for 6 hours without a proper explanation. From 1 to 10. Sorry not sorry I give 1 to Lion Air.

Lion Air review by Irwan 2017-01-13

Lion Air is about the cheapest airline there is. Knowing that in advance, anyone who expect the service to equal a luxurious airline, is downright unreasonable (at least that's how I see it). I have been using their service on more than 100 trips so far and naturally, I have had my shares of delays and problems. But again, considering the price and the actual crash records, most of the time I still choose this airline. EDITORS COMMENT: We agree!

Lion Air review by Chris 2016-12-07

We flew Lion from Bangkok to Chang Mai, the aircraft was clean and flew near enough to schedule. Booking was not easy, we went through the on line booking procedure right up to paying and then it appeared that all was well, but then we were informed payment was not successful and to retain our booking I had to go to a Family Mart shop about a mile away and pay by cash and I only had 45 mins to do this, fortunately I made it! The actual flight was without problem, but while we were waiting to disembark we watched the luggage unloading procedure and were appalled at the way the luggage was handled and saw the way our brand new Samsonite cases were treated, they were taken off a conveyor and thrown on to a metal floored trailer and then it appeared they were being used as targets with other cases being hurled at our cases, they were both scratched to hell and finished up looking decidedly second hand. We would not use Thai Lion air again!!

Lion Air review by Kari 2016-08-22

This is the worst airline I have ever travelled and I have flown slot! They did not check my baggage all the wAy through to my destination and they lost my luggage. On the wAy back to my original destination they would only issue my boarding pass to Bangkok snd not Jakarta even though I am on their airline causing me to have to recheck in Bangkok. In the last three years I have been flying from Jakarta to Chiang Mai with any other airlines , they have always checked me all the way through. Is there s new rule I don't know about? This is ridiculous and I'll NEVER fly them again!!!! EDITORS COMMENT: This is a low cost carrier and they do not issue multiple boarding passes or push luggage through to your final destination. You have to do each leg as a separate segment and this includes collecting and re checking in checked baggage. You will find that most low cost carriers operate like this unless you pay extra to have your luggage go the whole way through.

Lion Air review by L 2016-06-12

Lion Air is a joke. My partner and I had to unfortunately take 3 flights with them within the span of 2 days... Never again. They ruined the end of my trip because most of it was spent at the airport in chaos. The first plane was from Lombok to Bali. This one was delayed by 3 hours and they got to a point where they just stopped updating passengers about what was going on. The second was the next day from Bali to Jakarta. They cancelled our first flight and changed it to another flight an hour later. The new flight was also delayed by another 30 minutes. Because of the cancellation and delay, we almost missed our connecting flight from Jakarta to Singapore... Also with Lion Air. What a joke. Upon arrival in Jakarta, there was no one there to guide us to the terminal to ensure we didn't miss our flight. The customer service staff at the arrival/connecting area had no idea what was going on and just sent us on our way to grab a shuttle to the next terminal... To which we got a phone call asking us where we were? As for the 3rd flight from Jakarta to Singapore, they had no running water in the bathroom to wash your hands with and apparently can't afford straws. AVOID

Lion Air review by Veronika 2016-03-25

I had read reviews about Lion air night before we were supposed to fly. I got so scared of everything that people wrote here. (Can you imagine? ;) We flew from Bangkok to Phuket (round trip) and I have to say that both of our flights were more than fine. Staff was nice, flights were on time, arrivals as well. We got a small snack and watter on board. Everything went very smooth. :)

Lion Air review by Louis 2016-03-24

Best low cost airline in Thailand. BKK-LOE and BKK-HDY Value for money. Brand new 737-900. Friendly and helpful staff and crew. Planes always on time.( 5 out of 5 times for me ). Nothing to complain about. I believe you get much more than you can expect from a low budget airliner where the crew earns about 15.000THB a month. Will use again this April. And again in August. Nothing to worry about.
