The flight was decent again if there was a place that you could put crying children that would be great. Or maybe make a rule against allowing infants on the plane.

The flight was decent again if there was a place that you could put crying children that would be great. Or maybe make a rule against allowing infants on the plane.

The flight was great. The pilot was great. It was really annoying that the staff had facemasks on. Hard to hear what they’re saying when a mask is covering their mouth. I enjoyed the flight, but there was a crying baby in front of me. You guys should offer flights baby free. I would be very into that me and the person next to me discussed how they should make free flights for all of us that don’t have kids. I wouldn’t mind paying extra to not have to deal with the smell of a dirty diaper or screaming of a child. Also, if they had a separate room, the babies could be sent to the back with a curtain or something muddle the horrible sounds.

Smooth. Courteous. Fun. One problem: the wheels on my checked roller back were broken when I picked up baggage at destination. Must have happened during flight baggage handling but I don’t know where.

Staff very helpful and friendly, in flight entertainment poor. Flight left late and thus arrived 20 minutes late to final destination.

Ground crew was great in Austin, flight crew left a lot to be desired. Not particularly friendly, helpful or nice.

Everything was fine -- on time, clear, clean. I don't want to pay extra for in-flight wi-fi

First time flying with Alaska and the staff were All professional from checkin to departure! I do plan to book more flights with Alaska. Thanks

Too many people with oversized carry-ons. Uncomfortable seats. flight was too crowded.

My flight went off without any hitch or issue. I anticipate issues every time I fly, luckily, I was wrong on this trip.

I am an avid customer to Alaska Airlines and I was so disappointed with my flight experience on flight 639 with service from Phoenix to Seattle. This flight was supposed to take off at 7am. We sat on the airplane for an hour before we had to deplane due to a mechanical issue, which is fine. The agents working at the desk let us know that they would update us every 30 minutes with new information about our flight and that at the moment they were only helping customers who, due to the delay, would miss their connecting flights in Seattle, which was understandable. 1.5 hours went by before we got our first update of “unfortunately there is no update” finally, after 3 hours of waiting with hardly any update, I got in line with the rest of the passengers to figure out my next move due to the fact that I was supposed to be at a wedding that night and that I had spent a lot of money to make that morning flight. After sitting in line for over an hour to get help, I decided to call customer service to see if they could help me rebook a flight just in case, to which the agent said she could rebook me for a flight at 3:31pm that had 3 seats left on the flight. So I took it with the hopes that I would at least make the dinner portion of the wedding. I spoke to the gate agent and asked how I could retrieve my bags and he said they will be moved over to my new flight (2 gates down). Finally after being at the airport for 10 hours, it was time for me to hop on my new flight before I came to find out that I was on the standby list after being told that I had 1 of 3 seats that were left. I went and talked to the new agent to which he said, “yeah sorry there was a family who was after you on the waitlist so we gave them priority, so now there are 3 people ahead of you so you may actually not get on this flight.” All I could think about was how frustrated I was that I paid over $400 for a flight to get told that I may not make it home anytime soon. Finally, somehow a kind person gave up their seat for me to get on with compensation for him. When I mentioned that I had been at the airport since 5am (10+ hours) verbatim the gate agent said, “yeah that sucks, but it happens” absolutely no sympathy or support whatsoever. I then asked about my bag and if it was moved to this flight and the gate agent told me “they may not have had time to move it over so you might not get your bags today” so from my understanding from 11am when I changed my flight until 3:31pm my bag didn’t have time to move two gates? That seems ridiculous. Luckily I checked my app and it showed that it was moved. It was a long day of terrible customer service, no updates for new flights, long wait times, no compensation besides $12 for food that I didn’t even receive to my email until I landed in Seattle, having to wait 35 minutes for my bag at baggage claim upon my arrival in Washington, all to miss a wedding that I should have been a huge part of. So disappointing for someone who religiously flies with Alaska and has 4 or 5 more trips over the next few months with the airline and not a single dollar or mile returned for poor service.

The gate area was incredibly short staffed, with one representative manning 4-5 flights, which caused a 3 hr delay in boarding even though the plane was all ready to leave. Other flights also were delayed because of this. The flight crew was awesome and I feel bad for the only gate worker on call, but Delta needs to hire more employees.

Very frustrated with boarding gate crew. She announced the plane was small and they would be limiting us to one item to carry on. Not a problem for me as I understand the tiny planes have limited space!! Not the case here! It was a rather large plane and had plenty of room for bags! So because I don’t want to be one of “those people” who ignores the request to check a carry on I did so asking if I would be able to pick it up at the bottom of the ramp on arrival in Knoxville to which she responded “yes”! Then I watched as every other passenger held onto their 2 items and boarded!! Then when we arrived in Knoxville our 2 carry ons had been put with all the other luggage and we had to go to baggage pick up and wait for all the big checked bags to come off the carousel! So she lied!! Frustrating. Next time I won’t be so nice!

It was a good experience except when boarding a female flight attendant did not go out of her way to assist my teenage daughters in finding space for their carry-ons after their compartments were full.

On time departure, smooth trip, flight attendant told through passengers the gate we would arrive at and the gate our outbound flight was departing from. Early arrival

Checking in at the airport the agent only booked the first keg of my trip and had my checked luggage going to the airport with a layover! Never was issued a boarding pass for the second leg or received sticker fir my checked bag. All was well in the end! Delta agents helped to resolve the situation!!!

Delayed due to an ill passenger after loading. Not preventable on Delta's part. Was in first class. The seats are becoming worn and detaching from their velcro attachments. Only got snacks on flight. The attendant was not the friendliest.

I would fly again the whole experience was great. The only feed back I can give that they don't do that American Airlines does is the crew there is more humorous with boarding and thank their passengers. It makes it more fun to fly with them. I would however fly Delta again.

From Atlanta to Cabo I would have hoped on a plane that size I would have been able to breathe and wiggle my feet a little! The leg room in that plane is non existent and I am only 5”4’. And the air vent either wasn’t working very well or just could not blow air from the ceiling to the seat area as I was suffocating through the entire flight! And please don’t say I would have been more comfortable in first class because I cannot afford those rates and have always travelled Main Cabin without issues !

The pilots were good. Disappointing when planes don't have electrical ports

I liked the piloting of the aircraft. Very disappointed about lack of electrical ports. Also, although a short flight. there was enough time to hand out snacks to comfort + seats as was done for first class.

American cancelled our flight home. Zero option for hotel, alternative transportation and took 3 hours to find our bags so we could take a 3 hour UBER ride home on our dime. Never flying AA again.

Re-checking our bags, the workers were not able to help us with boarding passes for the flight, told us to wait, then ignored us while they helped many other passengers. Until I got rude, they would have left us standing there, and even then they were very curt and dismissive in telling us where to get boarding passes printed. We made it to the gate just as they were starting to board passengers. It was just rude customer service.

While I received notice that AA 478 was delayed, the flight departed PHX and arrived PHL more than two hours late. The first class cabin service was mediocre; there were no pre-departure beverages offered; there were no warm mixed nuts served with cocktails; there was no personal greeting to me as an Executive Platinum member by the first class flight attendant. While the flight operated safely, its arrival at 0219 in the morning in PHL ended a very long day. I do not feel that American provided first class service.

Absolutely filthy flight and not equipped for a trans US

Turn on the heat. Flight was way too cold from Arizona to Chicago.

Poor on time performance. Flight was delayed due to a lightbulb. No updates from the pilot. Plane was dirty and hot, AC didn't work well.

Being back games on the in-flight entertainment. Also your flight attendants need a break, raise, or overall attitude adjustment.

Overall pleasant was delayed and caused transportation issue when landing

Good over all but my flight from. Miami to Barbados the airplane was very dirty like I have never seen before. It looked like that plane hasn’t been cleaned in a long time and I fly about one time a month.

Flight operated on tie. However, the in-flight entertainment was inoperative. No special recognition as an Executive Platinum member.
