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.

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.

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.

We did have to wait an hour for the runway to be cleared but other than that it was fine.

I was pleasantly surprised to discover that Alaskan Airlines allows normal leg space in the economy class cabin, offers free movies and other entertainment programs via WiFi. The staff was friendly and worked hard to make this long flight enjoyable.
