Insights shared by verified travelers who flew the route from California to Portland 
TylerFlew with Alaska Airlines-Jul 2026
Don't leave hungry. No food on these short flights.
TaylorFlew with Alaska Airlines-Aug 2026
Don’t fly into SFO. Try Oakland instead with the construction that’s happening.
MartaFlew with Alaska Airlines-Mar 2026
Security is fast. It is run by a private company and not TSA. Lines move quickly. Immigration/customs is a smooth operation.
Verified travelerFlew with Alaska Airlines-Mar 2026
TSA security isn’t bad, sometimes gets crowded right before another flight goes out. Smaller airport but has many flight options.
VirginiaFlew with Alaska Airlines-Dec 2025
I get a little motion sickness even in a car and wasn’t sure if i needed for flight, lesson learned. so Even if you have a little bit of motion sickness, take your medicine before flight…
Verified travelerFlew with Alaska Airlines-Apr 2025
Look at the seat assignments before you commit
Verified travelerFlew with Alaska Airlines-Dec 2024
Prepare for a long walk from the arrival gate to baggage claim and transportation away from the airport.
Verified travelerFlew with Alaska Airlines-Nov 2024
Easy check in and less crowd. Short walk to boarding gate.
Verified travelerFlew with Alaska Airlines-Nov 2024
Leaver for the airport sooner especially during the holidays.
Verified travelerFlew with Alaska Airlines-Oct 2024
Portland is a big airport, give yourself time.
Verified travelerFlew with Alaska Airlines-Apr 2024
If you’re going to Disney, get a pass for EVE to request a direct pickup from the airport to your hotel. There are instructions for how to download the app and buy your pass on signs in the taxi area.
Verified travelerFlew with Alaska Airlines-May 2024
If you fly in the afternoon, get seats n the right side of the plan because the glare of the sun is pretty bad
Verified travelerFlew with Alaska Airlines-Dec 2023
The further you are into the calendar year you are more likely to have schedule changes due to the local noise restrictions
