Flights from Alaska to the United States: the best tips from KAYAK users

Insights shared by verified travelers who flew the route from Alaska to the United States

Check the exit row seats! On my plane one seat on each side had a seat with no seat in front of it for easier emergency exiting, giving that person a huge amount of leg room. The downside is that the seat sides are solid with tray tables in the armrest, so there’s no “overflowing” into the adjacent seat. For the tall, fit gentleman next to me it was a score.

Fairbanks is a small and efficient airport. As with most flights it may be better to take earlier flights to minimize the impact of delays, since many folks have connections.

Don’t waste time when arriving in Seattle. Most connecting flights require a train shuttle between terminals.

Great flight we left a little late but the awesome airplane was super fast l love that

We received a check-in reminder the day before the flight, and it listed the flight at a later time. Correct flight number, same seats, etc. for 3 hours later. I called the airline to confirm and they had no record of the email. The info was wrong, and we would have missed our flight if we'd assumed it was correct. I want to know where/how we received this incorrect info.

My experience would’ve been great because we were on a new plane, but they said as we boarded that the plane would be too new to have WiFi, which to me is unreasonable - newer planes should def have WiFi! It was a 5 hour flight from Anchorage to San Fran and because there was no WiFi, I had to take an unexpected half day off work, which was super annoying because I had a lot to do and we only found out a few minutes before takeoff.

5 1/2 hour trip. Nice plane. easy boarding. Could have used a bit more beverage service but it was a red eye flight and they didn't want to wake everyone.

Paid extra $230 to check frozen fish on arrival to LAX. I was told my bags miss my flight and we’re gonna be on the next flight that comes in two hours later regrettably my family was here to pick me up so I had to drive all the way home to drop them off then turn around and come back if I had waited on Alaska to deliver them they told me that they would be delivered in 4 to 6 hours after 8 AM tomorrow which would’ve caused the fish to spoil stink and be a lost cause they would’ve put about $2500 worth of fish down the drain very unhappy with Alaska Airlines for not getting my baggage here, especially since I had to pay for the extra service

I was very pleased with this trip from Anchorage to Seattle and Seattle to Billings. Wheelchair assistance was rendered and gratefully accepted. Unlike my outbound flights to Seattle I did not have long, painful walks on a bad knee to get to airport gates. My thanks to the Alaska staff.

Jammed up security line. Security personnel excellent but facility is really cramped and lines long. Alaska Airlines was excellent.

Everything was great. Paid for upgraded economy seat and it was worth it: early boarding, roomy seat, great entertainment choices, free drink!

Horrible. Boarded late, sat on the tarmac for over an hour, missed my connecting flight and had to spend a day in the Seattle airport. I won’t be flying Hawaiian again.

When I booked with Kayak, I paid extra for a window seat for the long flight, so I could sleep more easily. But when I checked in, they changed my seat to a middle seat. This happened on both long flights to and from Chicago to Anchorage. For one flight, upon request they changed my seat back to a window seat. For the other, they would not and said the Alaska Airlines does not allow seat requests.....just disappointing.

The flight was very smooth. The crew was very friendly.

Unlike Ravn and Grabt, these are new planes. But this plane was late due to reshuffling

Flights wwere cancelled, not due to weather. Left us stranded needing to rent a car costing $925. Totally no customer service or assistance.

Am deaf and there isn't tv screen on boarding place that I don't know what time it will start and want to make sure I have correct boarding. I wasn't notified that boarding has changed without tv screen showing.

Flight was cancelled and couldn’t reschedule. Had to rebook on southwest.

High winds with a lot of turbulence, but expected with winds. Otherwise it was fast and excellent!!

Expect many people do not have masks on or have the nose is hanging ride over the top of them
