Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.
Learn more about our review moderation.

I fly a LOT and this was, by far, the worst experience I've ever had. We paid $92 per person to upgrade for extra legroom, which gave us barely more legroom than a cheap seat on Delta. The whole plane was such a hot box everyone was dripping w sweat. The seats felt like wooden…

I had an incredibly deplorable experience with SwissAir customer service at Zurich International Airport on September 15, 2024 while connecting to my flight to Geneva. The behavior of the two gate agents- particularly the male agent was absolutely disgraceful. Their lack of…
