Find Cheap Flights from Los Angeles to Washington (LAX - WAS)

Seats with little cushion that make you sit virtually upright for over 5 hours.

Did not have any food so an N/A option for this category is needed.

The exit, economy plus seat I chose was described as limited recline when it fact the chairs do not recline at all. I was so disappointed. Had I known this, I would have chosen a different seat. My neck was hurting by the end of the flight.

The seats are so uncomfortable, they force you to slouch. They should support your lower back instead.

The seat next to me was empty which made the whole long flight more bearable.

Typical United service, without any bells or whistles.

Nothing.

They separated my seat with my 2 years old son, far far away. My 2 yo son got the seat in row 13 while mine was row 23. Then the front desk staff could only help to switch to row 12 and row 13. We’re still not together. That’s horrible. Then when we got on the plane, I asked people around if they don’t mind to switch their seats, but still not working well. The flight attendants didn’t help at all. Just saying, “this is the best we can do.” What did they do? They didn’t even help me to work it out. Then one of the front desk staff came onto the plane and help me out. My son and I finally sit together. But the overall experience sucks! Alaska Airlines needs to train their crew to have more emphatic to the passengers.

Nothing, didn’t fly

I purchased insurance in the event my circumstances changed and I couldn’t fly. My circumstances did change and I ended up not flying. When I contacted Alaskan, they “reimbursed” me for the flight but simultaneously charged me $125 as a change fee. The result was no benefit from the insurance, and a loss of my money as a result.

2 hour delay

The gate was switched at the last hour for no apparent reason to a gate that had a delayed flight. My flight was delayed an hour as we waited for the first flight to depart and then my flight to deplane, get cleaned, load and depart. Not sure why this needed to happen.

Great and friendly airline crew

Personal TV had a large variety of new movies. Crew was pleasant.

Pull down tray was not clean (had a left over food from last trip)

Crew service

Very cramped seating Delays on both flights

Newer equipment

Laughably long line for bathroom, zero legroom

Nothing.

My seat was changed without my knowledge or consent and no one was able to tell me why or fix it. I spoke with a united customer service supervisor and have yet to hear from anyome about it.

Flight was %60 full, had the last 6 rows to myself.

Ran out of food (dinner) before they got to my row.

The aircrew on my flight to Washington was courteous and efficient. It was a red eye so mostly slept. I understand why the seating has become more cramped and can accept that.

The ground crew at the United station at LAX were outrageous. They told me they were tougher than other airports, and they harangued the Economy passengers actually telling them that the Economy ticket didn’t allow them anything. “That it wasn’t worth buying an Economy ticket.” Why do they sell them? These people need some serious customer relations retraining.

I’d love to have a free fruit or veggie snack. Just a small bag

Good food and entertainment choices on board. Little to no feedback from captain regarding inflight turbulence.

Getting through security at the LAX Delta Terminal 2 was chaotic and the slowest I have ever encountered. There were two lines which moved at very different speeds. My husband got through his line 15min before I was finished in the other line. One line required iPads to be other, the other didn't. Something was seriously wrong with how things were being handled. Bathrooms onboard were a pigstie.

I was placed on an earlier flight as soon as I arrived at the Portland airport. The flight was full, there was no room for my bag in the overhead bins. The bag was checked, not to just Seattle but all the way to Venice. Well, surprise, surprise, the bag was lost on the way to Venice. KLM does not allow enough time in Amsterdam for luggage to make a connecting flight.

Quick and smooth boarding. Crew was very pleasant and welcoming. Temperature was for the most part comfortable. Quick disembarkment

Very tight carry on space requiring gate check. Delay leaving aircraft. Seating at gate assigned. No options. This was a short flight and I was in an exit row, making this flight comfortable

Seats on Alaska seem larger to me. The star aligned and we were able to take off a solid 10 minutes early (which helped us arrive early).

If you don't pre-download their entertainment app you have to pay $10 to rent a tablet.

The gate was switched at the last hour for no apparent reason to a gate that had a delayed flight. My flight was delayed an hour as we waited for the first flight to depart and then my flight to deplane, get cleaned, load and depart. Not sure why this needed to happen.

Staff was professional but not warm. Boarding was easy and the timing was great.

Cramped. Absolutely no leg room and I’m 5 foot 2 inches. The bathroom filled up so no one could use the facilities for the last hour of flight.

Easy, safe flight with great flight attendants Victor and Steven. Thank you!!

The captain had the crew return to their seats during drink service due to turbulence. Despite the fact that there was 2 and half hours remaining in the flight and the turbulence was gone, they never returned to complete the drink service.

Great and friendly airline crew

Worse experience ever.

Excellent experience.

Gate agent inATL helped an elderly man get on board early at my suggestion.Proud of our female pilot from ATL-PHF

I'm so used to the nice screens with free tv games and flight tracker and really missed that on this trip. I'm glad I decided not to pay to upgrade to comfort + this trip for the first time in a long time. I was able to use my tablet for flight tracker but could only see the map and not the stats

Food and entertainment were non-existent since the flights were so short and on smaller jets.....so I guess 1star isn't really fair, but there was no option for N/A Flight attendants were friendly. VPS-ATL lead attendant was very sweet to a passenger in front of us who was on her first flight alone with her child to go to her fathers funeral in the Philippines. She also thanked a soldier for her service. Love these little touches.

Worse customer service ever inside and outside the plane. Try he daughter was traveling with a 3 year old and they didn't want to change their seats together are u kidding me my daughter had to be asking in the plane but they did it for other people.

Not much to add here because not much to like

There was nothing on this flight. No plug ins for your phones, or music or movies or nothing. No magazine, and it was so cold I thought I was going to freeze. I flew out to Chicago on Alaskan and the fight was wonderful! But this flight was a total opposite to that flight. I took pictures of the seats to show my daughter that there was nothing. And swore at that time....never fly Frontier again.

Mostly that it was a non-stop flight. Flight attendants were nice.

I didn't care for all the "ups and extras" that were added to the base cost of the flight....one bag for 40 bucks, 17 bucks just to sit there? Ridiculous!

Very uncomfortable seats, they nickel and dime you for everything. You’re better flight America or United unless you plan to fly with the clothes you have on and a very small carry on.

Prices

There was no entertainment. There was no complementary food offered. Seats were uncomfortable. Debris all over the floor was never sweats from previous flight.

Would not allow upgrade even thought seats available because my economy ticket was not appropriate for upgrade. Seems that if all those who could upgrade hf upgraded had done so, why not allow the upgrade. Would have been more money for airlines and I would have enjoyed the trip more.

The crew was wonderful; I purchased a business class seat, which was comfortable (although I could not tell the difference between business class and coach seats).

The food was horrible - nothing fit for a person who is diabetic or vegan or non-dairy. And the price was outrageously high for what one received.

Everyone from counter check-in to flight attendants were very kind. You just don't see that anymore. This is my first time with Alaska Airline and I would be glad to fly you again.

The Gogo internet was very slow to non-existent -- like dial-up slow. WiFi delivery may not be Alaska Airline's fault, but $40... woof. For that price, I want it to be blazing fast.

Repeated drink service appreciated on the long route

Entertainment Wifi wouldn't play any movies

Plane was full, but it didn’t feel too cramped. Flight Attendants all kind and efficient.

No complaints except they need more vegetarian food options as it’s a 5.5 hour flight. No entertainment screen, you need your phone to watch anything, but there are USB plugs at each seat.

On time, service, food. It was first class but worth it.

Nothing.

Nothing, the seats were really horrendous, the head rest was in such an awkward position that it was better to attempt to hunch over and try to sleep on the tray. The lack of leg room as well made it equally uncomfortable. Seriously, the most uncomfortable flight I have ever been on.

See above.
