It was very good. I love flying with Alaska air.
Flying sucks these days. No airline is better than another. Alaska Air At least gives you some pretzel snacks. That is about all I can say for it.
Boarding for Alaska Airlines is always chaotic with many people crowding the gates. Arriving in on Alaska in Los Angeles is always interesting since there is never a gate available. So the planes are often parked all the way out on the west side of the airport while waiting for the gate to be cleared of the departing plane. This flight was no exception.
The would have rated higher, but I asked for a cup of coffee twice and never got one. Later found the crew sitting in the back having a meal and visiting. Just saying.
The flight was delayed almost an hour causing many passengers to be at jeopardy of missing their connecting flights. There was no help in providing passengers help with connections or allowing passengers with connecting flights to exit the plane in an expediated manner.
This was our fist time flying Alaska Airlines. Overall it was a great experience. Ticket counter, gate agents and flight attendants were all wonderful. They all seemed happy at what they do and it shows. Of 4 legs, the onboard WiFi was spotty on 1 leg. The food in first class cabin was ok. Couldn’t get the text messaging notifications to work so had to rely on Flight Aware and the Alaska App. Flights were on time and uneventful. We would def fly Alaska Airlines again :)
The flight was smooth, nothing too special. But what frustrated us about our experience with Alaska Airlines is that they were so rough with our luggage that they busted open the bag around our toddler's car seat. The car seat doesn't appear to be damaged, but we do have a part missing. I hope they either mail us the piece that fell off and out of the bag due to their mishandling, or make things right somehow. It's frustrating that they were so rough with our luggage.
Airline seems to have really gone downhill and have secured a reputation for being late and nonprofessional. How sad.
Good flight times. The app didn’t show all available seats when checking in. I thought I had to pay for an exit row to have a seat but there were actually 42 seats left. Then I had to get a refund and getting ahold of a customer care representative who was able to do that was very very difficult.
The first class crew was very attentive to any needs requested. As a diabetic a few extra choices for drinks would be nice. Plus at least one meal that would be diabetic friendly.
Delta is my preferred airline. I've traveled with them for years. On time in most cases, good communication, easy to use app. Most planes are pretty nice. I was on a CRJ 700/900 however, which was pretty badly aged inside and needed a refresh. No infotainment, unreliable wifi, best to download before boarding or bring a book. Food choices are really just snacks on this flight, nice variety but about what you'd expect. Great staff and prompt in departure and early arrival too. Overall quite satisfied.
Crew was friendly Love the entertainment in the seat head rest.
Delta flight was on time, seats were comfortable, and crew was nice.
This had nothing to do with Delta… The flights were on time and flawless. The service was excellent. We purchased seats in (aisle/middle) comfort plus since this was a cross country flight. Unfortunately, the woman seated at the window was 300+ pounds and, as might be expected, covered up about a third of the middle seat also. there was absolutely nothing that Delta could have done about that… I just don’t know what the answer should be. If you purchase a seat, you should should be able to use the entire seat and not just the portion that someone else is not sitting/oozing in. Disappointing…there should be something that could be done….I'm just not sure what solution could be.
Delayed take-off. Very small plane so very scary with lots of bumps during the flight. Would never fly Delta on short flights in small 80 seaters plane again! Felt relieved when landed.
The worst part was I was NOT allowed in the lounge even though I was holding a first class ticket and have a premium American Express card. I have flown Business or First Class with many airlines. Delta is the ONLY one who does not extend this courtesy to anyone except people who hold the very expensive American Express card. As a result, I won’t fly Delta if I have any other choice.
A little bumpy ride . No food was being provided due the the turbulence. That was ok it was a short flight to my standards.
Simply outstanding. Their new lounge for Delta One customers is a cut above the rest.
The Dekta Rep that checked us in was great. She's very personable, pleasant, and can tell she enjoys her job.
The plane was old with small storage areas that had problems closing/latching and not enough storage for everyone, and worn, damaged seats. Service was great but feel a little unsafe on such well used planes.
