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.
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.
On time would have been a hell of a lot better!!
Cancelled my flights with only 6 hours notice, then offered alternate flights that arrived 1:30 AM next day.
We usually enjoy flying Alaska Airlines. However this time we had multiple negative experiences. We were surprised that they rejected our bags because of a new “50 minute cutoff” but they did not tell us about it beforehand and also did not tell us that it was new. They also lost two of our car seats. The one car seat that was returned to us was half out of its bag and half of it was wet. It was not raining so they must have thrown it in a puddle?! I saw at least 4 other car seats on the carousel in the same condition. We purchased two travel car seats for this trip that were pretty expensive and they lost them. We have yet to receive any word or compensation from our “claim.”
I don't like that this survey shows Good for everything. Everything was not Good. I didn't eat any of the food. I didnt' have any entertainment. You need to have a NA choice. My flight was satisfactory until I debarked the plane and fell on the Jetway. The jetway sections had a slight inclined edge, which I tripped on. I was near the plane's exit door, but neither of the flight attendants helped me get up. I was helped by two other passengers. Also, I explained to the counter staff about falling and no one seemed to understand what I was telling them. I said I fell on the ramp, which was not the correct term. The passenger who was sitting next to me on the plane did a better job of explaining to your staff where I fell and that I was in a lot of pain. I also wanted to report the incident and no one helped with that. I was then offered a wheelchair. The passenger who helped me stayed with me until the wheelchair arrived. I asked the wheelchair attendant if there was anyone I could report the incident to and he said there was no one. Really???? My daughter picked me up at the door. I tipped the attendant for his service from the Alaska counter to her car. Before leaving the property, my daughter called the airport to report the incident. We were advised to go to the to a hospital ER. A Cat Scan showed I broke the 6th rib on the right side. My daughter was sent paperwork to complete from the agent with whom she spoke before we left the airport.
Flight from New Orleans to Seattle to Anchorage was delayed for 3 hours My flight from Seattle to Anchorage was not rescheduled. I had to call the airlines to tell them to get a flight from Seattle to Anchorage they finally got me a flight If I hadn’t been aware of this problem I don’t know how long I would of waited in Seattle to get a flight to Anchorage!!!!!! Return trip from Anchorage to New Orleans in Seattle to New Orleans I was at the right gate when I realized something was wrong they had changed the gate without notifying the change l finally made it on time with minutes to spare & exhausted
Could have service kiosks, had to find a gate with an attendant
The flight was short and smooth. The crew was friendly and courteous.
It was beautiful easy and smooth experience. Thank you. Will definitely get Delta for my next travel.
No one fussed at me about my pap machine as a 3rd pice on the plane. Boarding was pleasant and smooth. The boarding agent in Anchorage was a fun character- he could be in a movie. :~) The on-board crew were downright pleasant. No militant attitudes on Delta. Like all planes these days the seats are too narrow for standard Americans and at 5’2” there is barely enough leg room. I don’t know how tall people fold themselves into the seats. But that’s nothing specific to Delta
Excellent flight, the planes were newer, they did a nice job with boarding, great service overall.
Delta is better for short flights and very low need for customer service. Avoid for longer flights
Delta is a premier airline so my expectations are most always met.
Everything was good except when we're on a 6 hour flight at dinner time and all they offer as part of the fare are little bags of junk food, it's disappointing. Bring back food service without an added price.
Left on time and arrived early this extending our 31 minute transfer. Bags made it also!
I love my flight attendant Faith, always smiles always helpful. She makes the flight experience wonderful thank you
My return flights were changed by the airline and my preferred seat selection with extra legroom was not transferred to the new flights
I actually received a notification from kayak on email but not one by text from Delta when my departure gait changed and I almost missed my flight
