AnneFlew with Alaska Airlines-Oct 2026
Can upgrade from Basic(no change, no refund) to changeable ticket for $100 more -BUT then you must pay another $75 to reserve that new seat PLUS any difference in airfare. Not as great for changing flights as for cancel & rebook using credit received for original booking.
LaveniaFlew with Alaska Airlines-Dec 2025
Pre-order your food. Make sure to bring your OWN device and be prepared to pay for WiFi to access entertainment for this long flight.
LaveniaFlew with Delta-Dec 2024
When heading to the West coast, we prefer “red eye” flights to help overcome the time change.
TonyFlew with Alaska Airlines-Dec 2024
Pack snacks or a good sandwich. Download your movies before you fly to avoid another FINE/FEE for internet charges. Pack light to avoid luggage fines/fees for check in baggage Don't pick a seat to avoid fines/fees
Verified travelerFlew with Alaska Airlines-Dec 2024
Be at the airport atleast 4 hours before the flight. TSA PRE CHECKS SUCKS AT ATLANTA AIRPORT
Verified travelerFlew with Alaska Airlines-Jul 2024
Its a long flight so if you want snacks bring you own.

Lot's of good food and free entanglement made the trip pleasurable and fun.

Experience overall was great, we didn’t land upside down like a Delta plane once did. The entertainment section didn’t apply for me, but I put excellent I think anyway.

Didn’t realize we couldn’t actually get the full food menu while on-board. I saw that pre-ordering was available but didn’t realize the impact. Also didn’t know there weren’t entertainment devices on board had to bring your own device which I would’ve preferred to have clarity about ahead of time.

5 1/2 hour flight with no food service or options is inexcusable.

The flight was delayed due to a safety check. Why couldn't that have been done ahead of time? We got to Seattle with enough time to make our connecting flight but they kept changing the gate so we missed it. There were at least ten of us who missed the flight. The airline was aware. They could have waited. They didn't. Our new flight was not for seven hours and then was delayed another two hours. We got the last seats which don't recline. Super uncomfortable after a long day spent at the worst airport. Did they offer us a meal voucher or anything? On top of that Alaska Airlines didn't complete my ticket to the new flight. I wasn't sure I would get on this horrible flight, either. Oh, and it's ten o'clock at night....no food. Is this how Alaska Airlines treats its customers? I'll never fly with this airline again.

It was awful. We experienced turbulence for nearly the whole flight. Then when I picked up my luggage, two of the wheels were torn off. Worst flight ever!!

What has happened to your airline customer service? We have to pay extra for everything now, except water, coffee and pretzels. A 6 hour flight and pretzels are free? Baggage is fined/fee Pick a seat is fined/fee A better seat is for bed/fee A meal is fined/fee Baggage over 35 lbs is fined/fee **When did get shamed into being like Spirit or Frontier? I'm rather disappointed in you.

I liked The generous baggage allowance. I did not like No meals onboard.

Your seats are too crowded! and you don't serve full meals on this 5 hour flight? Just rake in the profits.

I didn't use the entertainment options. Otherwise it was a good flight.

It was great and arrived home a little sooner than expected which is nice.

Wifi was terrible. I couldn't get any work done on the long flight

Paid for premium extra leg room but the bin space for rows 1-3 had to go in rows 4-6 and 4-6 had to go to 7-9 because flight attendants have snacks and their luggage upfront. So we pay extra to have to fight thru traffic to get our bags. Only 2nd day of new seating so hope they fix this.

Delayed flight. Nicest crew member was a SW pilot flying seated next to me who kindly move to seat the final passenger. Flight extra delayed. My cup of refreshment of ginger ale was so packed with ice it was literally 2 sips.

Gate agents were informative and friendly… flight attendants were as well. Had a fun time chatting about their legacy AirTran experiences as a former fan of the airline that Southwest acquired.

The fluidity of the entire process of boarding the plane the flight attendants attentiveness. The flight attendants also provided coloring books for my kids who loved it.

Excellent. The lady boarding the flight was awesome. Very efficient, and she got everyone on line.

It was great! The new boeing has much more space and charging ports!

I kept getting h notifications that the flight was delayed. At the airport it was only 2 mins delay. Very confusing. No WiFi on the plan. Snacks very salty. No alternative

I like the boarding procedure. A bumpy ride, but it couldn't be helped. Please make sure the exit seats are clearly indicated.

My flight from Atlanta to Oklahoma City was delayed multiple times. I ended up arriving in Oklahoma City nearly two hours later at around 1:50 am the following morning. This was a highly disappointing experience.

Love Delta. I'll take connections to stay on Delta even if another airline has a direct flight.

This flight was the flight we missed due to deltas delay at our first airport going TO Atlanta.

I enjoyed the whole flight and the crew was amazing i dont usually fly delta

Flight attendent didn't let me sit in the empty window seat literally next to me. Doors had closed already so I moved over. She came over, asked for my ticket and made me switch back to the middle. The man on the aisle and I were right on top of each other. Seemed like a real power trip for no reason at all.

Staff was great! Kind and cordial! Middle seat row 28 seat B has a hump in it. Trays were getting stuck when putting down and up. Good flight

Overall, it was okay. Seat was a little cramped. Would’ve liked more substantial snacks or opportunity to buy some.

The seats are uncomfortable, feels like a small seat pad on plywood.

Screen didn’t play movies, do I was pretty boated the entire flight.

Flight was on time, the crew was personable & professional, & the plane arrived early which was nice.

At 5:46 am EST, when I arrived at my departing gate, your gqte agent told me that I could not board the flight because the flight is closed 15 minuets before departure. However, the same gate agent escorted a woman (standing right next to me) at the gate onto the flight which, proves that I could have boarded the flight just like the woman I watched board the flight. The gate agent stated "she was here before you". 1-why was she not already on the flight & 2-how and why was she able to board a "closed" flight that I was not. Additionally, although 6am EST was the time of departure, the plane did not 'pullback' from the gate until 6:15am EST The same gate agent told me that the "boarding closes 15 before departure time" is printed on my boarding pass. This statement is not displayed on my digital boarding pass that I downloaded from AA.com. She also told me that this in stated on AA.com whent I booked my ticket however, since am travelling for work, I booked my flight thru my firm's (Deloitte Consulting) corporate travel app, not AA.com.

My flight depature was changed. Then it was delayed, and then cancelled after I reached the gate.I paid $231 for a hotel room that I didn't get to use because I arrived 24 hours later than I was suppossed to. My wife had to pick me up from the airport and I had to pay for an another ride back to the airport the next day. They did get me faster/ priority through TSA. The 2nd flight was okay

It was a short flight so there were no entertainments nor super comfortable which is OKAY, just the review system doesnt allow for N/A which is why okay was put, but overall good! No delays and nice crew

It was significantly delayed. Also the admirals club in Philadelphia airport near Gate B is absolutely filthy. Good was on the floor. Flies on the cheese. And the men’s restroom had pools of urine on the floor. I am not using that lounge again.

It was good overall. On my transition from Philadelphia to Boston,the gate information wasn't correct. When I went to check the gate information; I found out that my flight was boarding clear across the airport at another gate. Fortunately I rushed over there and made it on time while they were in the middle of boarding.

With weather and severe delays it was disappointing we didn't receive any compensation for the 5 hour delay. Not even a food voucher.

ATL to CLT return flight. Delayed way too severely. Had to cancel the return flight.

Uncomfortable seats, spotty WiFi, only Biscoff for snack (no one likes those).

Booked flight at 8pm Sunday evening. Flight posted delay from 5:00 to 7:46AM Monday morning. At 12:26 AM (after I was asleep) pulled flight forward to 6:21AM. Had to scramble in morning to make the flight. Barely did

American Airlines flights are always delayed for some reason. It took 9 hours today from Atlanta to Austin. I will go back to Delta.

My ATL–CVG Frontier flight was disappointing due to both an operational issue and unprofessional customer service. After everyone had boarded and the aircraft had pushed back from the gate, we were delayed because the passenger count did not match the flight manifest. The crew counted passengers approximately six times before the aircraft returned to the gate and gate agents boarded to help resolve the discrepancy. We were ultimately advised that a family had been allowed to board but not all of their boarding passes had been properly scanned. This resulted in a departure delay of nearly an hour. I did appreciate that the pilot kept passengers informed and tried to reassure us that some of the delay could be recovered during the flight. My greater concern was the customer-service experience. I am a Frontier Elite Platinum member and was seated within the first five rows. When I boarded, the overhead bins near my seat were already closed. I opened two bins to see whether my small backpack would fit. A female flight attendant sharply told me that a closed bin meant it was full, although the second bin clearly had available space. When I tried to ask whether I could simply place my backpack in that available space, she ignored me. Later, while the gate agents were working to resolve the passenger-count problem, I heard the same flight attendant make jokes about how many gate agents it takes to count passengers. She then made unnecessary comments about the male gate agent doing the count, men thinking they can do things better than women, and women knowing better and outliving men. Later in the flight, she also commented that passengers should know that the first thing they need to do is always be nice to the flight attendants. Courtesy absolutely should go both ways. Flight attendants deserve respect from passengers, but passengers also deserve respectful and professional treatment from the crew. Joking about colleagues who were actively trying to correct an operational problem, making gender-based comments in front of passengers, and being dismissive toward a passenger asking a simple baggage question were unnecessary and unprofessional. I fly enough to understand that delays and mistakes happen. What determines the quality of the experience is how those situations are handled. Unfortunately, the customer-service attitude on this flight made an already frustrating operational delay considerably worse.

A 630departure flight Delayed 6hours! They changed my gate, I moved to the new gate. Had our flight on the screen for 12noon departure. I go get above to eat, check screen again and the flight was gone, no notice no announcement, nothing!! They sent my bag on the flight I wasn’t on, got it back to me 3days later. Thank goodness they did refund my money but I will NEVER fly them again.

Plane and crew on board were fine. Everything else was terrible.

Inbound plane was on time and flight departed on time with no issues while boarding.

Too many extra fees, uncomfortable, little leg room. Will not recommend this airline.

Disaster. They lied every step of the way. We ended up being delayed due to crew and then allegedly abandoned the flight because of a curfew at LGA. No rebooking to LGA at any reasonable time. No hotel. No meal vouchers. Had to sleep in the airport and fly to Newark instead. Will never fly Frontier again.

My first flight was delayed 5 hours. The 2nd flight was canceled til the next day and the never even tried to compensate for it. Worse I was delayed again on the flight the rebooked me on.

My flight was canceled I was promised a reginf still not received.

They canceled flight. Hard to believe there was even a plane incoming for us to get on

Horrendous. I do not recommend Frontier. The passengers lack manners and decency, and the flight attendants lack professionalism. If I wasn’t in a bind to fly with 48 hours notice for a job interview, I would not have selected a flight with Frontier and I never plan to fly with them in the future.
