We usually enjoy flying Alaska Airlines. However this time we had multiple negative experiences. We were surprised that they rejected our bags because of a new “50 minute cutoff” but they did not tell us about it beforehand and also did not tell us that it was new. They also lost two of our car seats. The one car seat that was returned to us was half out of its bag and half of it was wet. It was not raining so they must have thrown it in a puddle?! I saw at least 4 other car seats on the carousel in the same condition. We purchased two travel car seats for this trip that were pretty expensive and they lost them. We have yet to receive any word or compensation from our “claim.”
There was a delay, then we were boarded, then deboarded, then waited another hour for a new flight, then boarded again and arrived 2 hours later than expected while traveling with 3 young children.
I don't like that this survey shows Good for everything. Everything was not Good. I didn't eat any of the food. I didnt' have any entertainment. You need to have a NA choice. My flight was satisfactory until I debarked the plane and fell on the Jetway. The jetway sections had a slight inclined edge, which I tripped on. I was near the plane's exit door, but neither of the flight attendants helped me get up. I was helped by two other passengers. Also, I explained to the counter staff about falling and no one seemed to understand what I was telling them. I said I fell on the ramp, which was not the correct term. The passenger who was sitting next to me on the plane did a better job of explaining to your staff where I fell and that I was in a lot of pain. I also wanted to report the incident and no one helped with that. I was then offered a wheelchair. The passenger who helped me stayed with me until the wheelchair arrived. I asked the wheelchair attendant if there was anyone I could report the incident to and he said there was no one. Really???? My daughter picked me up at the door. I tipped the attendant for his service from the Alaska counter to her car. Before leaving the property, my daughter called the airport to report the incident. We were advised to go to the to a hospital ER. A Cat Scan showed I broke the 6th rib on the right side. My daughter was sent paperwork to complete from the agent with whom she spoke before we left the airport.
As always to close confinement for passengers not in upgrades. I like that you still get carry on and personal bag.
Friendly staff, everything went smoothly. Gluten free snacks would would be the cherry on top!
The flight was canceled at the last minute and we got very upset as we had plans in which our schedule that affects a family reunion was in jeopardy.
They were friendly, efficient and got our bags to us so fast at the end of the flight.
I purchased the internet during the flight and it stopped working after 1 hour, so I barely got to use it.
Flight attendant was excellent, pleasant and attentive. Announcements were clear and pleasant.
seats good, foot space comfortable not good, waiting on tormack at Las Vegas
United could have one single once of customer service. No human United employee would help me with the invalid mileage plus number, they said I had to speak with the computer.
United sent me a mileage plus number last year but that number is invalid so I can’t use it to check into flights or collect mileage. There is human to speak about the problem, only computers who keep asking me if I am using the correct email. It’s so frustrating and I cannot resolve it.
It was delayed instead of departing at 9:20pm, we departed at 11pm… putting us in Columbus after 2am! It was awful. Had I known about the delay, I could have spent some time in the United Lounge… I was starving because I started my journey in Budapest… so I was exhausted and hungry. Plus I had to make new arrangements to be picked up at the airport in Columbus, instead of midnight it was 2:30 am after getting luggage and out of airport. Not feasible. I would have just stayed in Chicago for the night and gotten a morning flight.
Not a great experience. We paid for the upgrade for premium economy seats and seated ourselves in very comfortable seats. Someone came along with the same seat on their boarding pass. The aircraft had been changed and as a result we were booted out and sent further back to small uncomfortable seats. After complaining we were moved to emergency row seats, which gave us more leg room but the seats don’t recline. For people in our 70’s we found having to sit upright from California to NJ very uncomfortable. Not sure why they chose to move senior citizens instead of the two people that were allowed to take the more comfortable seats. Not happy.
I liked the choice of lemon ginger tea. I think stewardesses can be more considerate of older people needs.
The food should improve! And The flight should leave on time and not make the traveler wait.
It was great, I’m very grateful for the pilots and crew flight attendants for everything.
Everything was great. Only thing that could’ve made it better was buy on board options for hot food, but the snacks were decent. The flight attendants were great. I had no complaints. I was able to make it to my destination safely
A little bit more leg room in premium economy. I am 6’4”.
Overall it was good. I missed my connection but I was put on another flight.
