Find cheap flights from Sydney to Los Angeles

Pros: Comfortable seats and great on board hospitality

Cons: Boarding in Nadi international airport for Fiji airways is boarding the passengers from the back of the aircraft first which was different for me

Pros: Coach seats reasonably comfortable. Coach bar service outstanding.

Cons: Coach food quality, in-flight entertainment, and between meal snack service are average.

Pros: Helpful crew, good food, professional

Cons: FREEZING COLD cabin air temperature, as other reviewers have noted. Despite otherwise comfortable conditions to sleep, this made it impossible to get a good night's sleep.

Pros: Very smooth flight

Cons: No food options by row 29

Pros: Everything was excellent.

Cons: I liked everything including food, service and flight.

Pros: Plenty of food. Seats a good size , my husband is 6ft 5in and the economy seats were more comfortable than other airlines. The crew werer pleasant and helpful.

Cons: The movie selection wasn't particularly great.

Pros: We were pleasantly surprised by the legroom for the regular economy seats. We usually opt extra legroom because my husband is 6'4" but he was very comfortable on this flight. We fly often and on many different airlines, but Virgin always stands out for exceptional service, modern and clean planes (continuously attended to throughout the flight), better meals, friendly staff, extensive entertainment options...definitely one of the best overhaul international flights we've had.

Cons: The check-in procedure at Sydney Airport was a bit of a nightmare. Even the people who had checked in online had to wait in line (for 30 minutes-1 hour) to get boarding pass and check bags. We had carry-on bags only and still had to do this. I understand they need to recheck everyone's documents since the flight was headed to the US, but the available counters and process for moving customers along was very slow. Other than that, we had an excellent 5* star experience.

Cons: On time.

Pros: Good quick flight

Cons: N/A

Pros: Nicest crew on the planet. Restrooms stayed clean despite 12 hour flight

Pros: Comfortable seats and great on board hospitality

Cons: Boarding in Nadi international airport for Fiji airways is boarding the passengers from the back of the aircraft first which was different for me

Cons: The ticketing experience almost cost me missing my connection. I did not get my con# or my second boarding pass so after customs I was forced to go back out and wait for a bus to get to a different terminal. I waited 30 min. Very poor handling.

Cons: Breakfast was sub-par (bad frittata, beans and fatty bacon rasher). Fewer movie selections on inflight entertainment compared to previous USA-Australia trips.

Pros: Coach seats are pretty comfortable. Crew announces for people to put their seats up when meals are served. Entertainment chicles were solid.

Cons: Some crew members were aloof. Service was ok and very dependent on which crew member it was

Cons: Luggage was lost and had yo be seny next day.

Pros: better food than I have had for a long time on any flights

Cons: uncomfortable seats, seat bottom angled in such a way that I kept sliding down; and too hard.

Pros: The staff was friendly and helpful.

Cons: LAX has to get its remodeling completed. Getting to Tom Bradley International terminal and taking the bus to our plane was not impressive. The food on Fiji Air is not good.

Pros: Everything

Pros: Very welcoming crew, kept us informed of any changes

Cons: The seats are old, no entertainment, really not the quality I expected for an international flight

Pros: Very nice and polite

Cons: Food was not good Movie selection was poor

Pros: Food was delicious

Cons: Flight was late. Was told it would be new upgraded business class but it wasn't. Bags never made it to my transfer.

Pros: Generous coach seating, plentiful tasty food, all the creature comforts we needed.

Cons: The entertainment system touch screens do not respond well.

Pros: Nothing

Cons: By sending my purchase thru a third party, you screwed my ability to use your cancellation policy and was forced to use there’s which was not customer service oriented. I will never again use kayak

Pros: super friendly crew making sure u had snacks and drinks ,smiling the whole time. thank.you!

Cons: maybe if i could hve plugged inmy own headphines but no big deal. thank you!

Cons: 350 pound passenger placed next to us in window seat. Passenger took over 1/3 of my wife's seat. Flight was full, no effort made by crew to correct situation.

Pros: Crew, food, service

Cons: Interior and entertainment system quite outdated. When trying to turn on the reading lights the ones above the seats before us would go on, not ours (21H was our seat, 20H light would turn on, not ours)

Pros: The crew was lovely. Super impressed.

Cons: We arrived 3_ hours early to check in for a 12-22 flight but had to stand in line much longer than necessary because passengers who arrived late for flights that were departing were checked in before we were. We understand that the airline is trying to check in passengers for departing flights so they can leave on time but they need a better system to avoid penalizing passengers who follow the rules. Our flight was delayed 90 minutes, causing us to potentially miss our connection in LA. We were not provided any information in flight or immediately upon getting off the flight to calm our worries about missing the connecting flight. So we stood in customs and immigration lines hoping to make it. Only after we collected our luggage, were we told that we had been rebooked on another flight from LA to DC (our final destination). We could have been given that information in flight or at least when we got off the plane to avoid being stressed in customs and immigration. The airline needs a much better way to handle delays for passengers who are going to miss connecting flights.

Pros: Seats reclined comfortably but were definitely cramped & crew was pleasant. I got my first choice on meals in both economy x while sitting in the front while headed to Oz and regular economy when sitting in the back on the way home.

Cons: Only one drink service included, which came with the first meal. The rest of the options were water throughout the flight until breakfast when juice or coffees and teas were offered. Entertainment was a little dated, including HBO series from the early 2000’s rather than newer shows. Flight was an hour late without explanation & there wasn’t the starry night sky that I heard so much about. Overall I’d fly again if it was a good flight deal but I wouldn’t specifically seek the airline out when planning another trip.

Cons: Virgin Australia staff were extremely unhelpful when I called from Sydney (20+hrs before landing in LAX) to find alternative flight to JFK due to snow. Their inability to rectify the situation on the spot resulted in all outbound flights to LA being full by the time I landed in LAX and a subsequent 3-day stay in LA… hence missing my wedding anniversary. Thankfully my husband purchased the first available ticket at US$1,000 and was able to get me back to NYC in time to celebrate our wedding anniversary. I am extremely disappointed that Virgin Australia did not amend the flight when I first called - staff in LA further reinforced that Syd ground staff should have been more helpful. On top of all of this I had to pay US$120 for excess baggage due to 20kg restrictions - what international flight only allows 20kg. All in all this has been an extremely disappointing experience and I will not be flying virgin for any further international trips.

Pros: Helpful crew, good food, professional

Cons: FREEZING COLD cabin air temperature, as other reviewers have noted. Despite otherwise comfortable conditions to sleep, this made it impossible to get a good night's sleep.

Pros: Great lounge, comfortable flight.

Cons: The business seat doesn't fold fully flat, but only about 160 degrees. They mixed up my drink in the morning and I got a cheap sugary fruit punch.

Cons: Very happy traveller

Cons: Older plane with very small and uncomfortable seats. Staff wasn’t nearly as attentive as in previous flights. Several mechanical glitches with the plane itself and with the food service
