We did not realize there wasn't any food apart from a small packet of pretzels - I dropped one and nearly cried.
I recently flew with Alaska Airlines on a trip to Oregon and had a very frustrating experience that I hope the airline can learn from. I purchased upgraded seats with extra legroom for my flight, paying the additional fees for the comfort and space. During my trip planning, I called customer service to inquire about their pet travel policies and conditions, as I was considering bringing my dogs. However, I ultimately decided NOT to bring my pets and never authorized or confirmed any pet travel arrangements. Despite this, Alaska Airlines took it upon themselves to change my seat assignment without any notification or contact. When I arrived for my flight, I discovered that my paid upgrade had been downgraded to a regular seat - presumably because they assumed I would be traveling with pets based on my inquiry call. I hope Alaska Airlines will improve their communication processes and ensure that customer inquiries don’t automatically trigger booking changes without explicit customer authorization. Better staff training on distinguishing between inquiries and actual bookings would prevent this type of situation in the future. While I appreciate that the airline tries to accommodate pet travelers, making assumptions and changes without customer consent is poor service that needs to be addressed.
It was a good flight, short so there was no food or water service
The customer service personnel were excellent. We had pre-ordered two meals but they could only provide one of them; they substituted the meal with a snack at no charge. Flight was on-time.
The friendliest flight attendants at flight 2276 from Portland to YVR August 3
Both flights delayed while the crew blamed it on local festivities instead of the truth of not having enough staff.
At the Portland airport, Alaska Airlines has put in a system where you have to create your own bag tag, then put your own suitcase onto a scale to weigh it. The day we were there, the system was not working properly, and we kept on being told to go onto different lines so it took us approximately 45 minutes to check our bag in. I do not work for the airlines why am I subjected to doing this? How all these companies are shifting their work onto people who have paid good money for their products is crazy. And then the system that the customers are supposed to use don't work properly..
Flight was great. Baggage claim at both ends (SEA and ATL) was atrocious.
Had to sit and wait to get off the plane for closeto a hour. My son also flying to a different destination that day also had like a 2.5 hr delay
TERRIFIC! Thank you all. Jason Robert Kidwell My favorite flight attendants.
The seats got pretty uncomfortable pretty fast. The armrests are bigger than on other planes, so I had less room in the actual seat. My butt hurt by the end of the flight. :/ comfort was the primary issue. The crew were fantastic!
I believe that a four-hour trip should have a meal. Delta had none.
Great flight with Delta! Boarding was quick and easy, the amenities were solid, and the plane was in great shape. The flight attendants had a fun, lively energy while staying professional. All in all, a smooth trip — even managed to catch up on some rest. Thanks, Delta!
I was uncomfortably cold on the plane. Other than that it was uneventful and therefore as enjoyable as a plane ride can be.
There was supposed to be a meal served, but there wasn’t and the major toilet was out of order
They made us board and then deboard due to mechanical issue which delayed the departure by almost 2 hours and we barely made our connecting flight. These quality checks should've been done before boarding not after.
Having to up charge for a seat assignment is not good. Delta can do better
I liked the friendliness of the staff. The cleanliness of all 3 planes.
Was charged for my luggage despite having been on one ticket from an international flight. Too tired to argue after 15 hours on flight. Was charged for rechecking it at JFK airport. Not sure why those off Kenya Airways were required to do that.
De planning was an absolute mess. We were never told that we weren’t at the gate and that we had to go down unstable stairs and then hop on a bus. People were falling, we couldn’t tell who was in charge. Overall terrible communication that ended up leaving a bad impression at the very end of the experience.
Plane was crowded and even when we hit altitude, the plane was hot, not enough air flow.
Flight attendant in first class gave poor service (like he didn't want to be there) and food was awful. We sat waiting for gate upon arrival over 45 mins.
The pilots were late and it made us 1 hour late. The meat was tough and bok choy was also tough.
Flight was delayed 3 hours. No food and drink vouchers was provided. They offered a mini pretzel bag and water .
Stuck on tarmac for two hours plus a 5.5 hour flight. Rude flight attendant. And no meals, not even for purchase!
The service was good, the food could have been better.
Staff was rude. Didn’t give water for 2 hours. Worst service
Excellent flight. Boarding was efficient and departure was on time. Smooth flight with on time arrival. Deplaning was also efficient.
This flight was perfect. No complaints and only the highest regard for the crew and ground staff and how they executed perfectly. I fly a lot with United and would request predictability and transparency in their operations instead of last minute changes.
This is for UA2274 from Houston to Sacramento. The flight was delayed arriving due to mechanical issues so we left about 3 hours later than scheduled. When boarding the plane the temperature inside was excessive - likely close to 100. Pilot apologized and said it was going to improve at altitude, which it did. But before that I honestly thought there might have been more delays removing passengers made ill from the heat. We were delayed leaving due to another mechanical issue. There was not water on the plane due to a panel that was not secured. They did that quickly, but the combination of mechanical issues was rather disturbing and did not reflect well on United.
The comfort of the seats was great, the crew eased my child’s anxieties and the fact that I had full cans of my beverage choice was great.
My flight got switched and my prepaid bag didnt transfer over properly so I paid to check ANOTHER BAG. I was placed in a middle seat and it was just miserable. At least it was a bulkhead row so I had legroom. The flight just never seem3d to end
4 hours late, including over +1 hour waiting in plane to take off. Baggage left behind too.
Sat on the ground in Cincinnati for 50 minutes before deplaning
While waiting to claim my checked luggage, I discovered the airline had lost it. After a long wait and inquiries, I discovered it was on another flight. Fortunately, the airline finally sent my luggage home.
Crew should be nicer and emphatic with customers. Same cookies as the past 20 years. Seat are ok and the plane was clean though it was delayed.
Was not able to watch most shows on the entertainment site. They would not load
As smooth as you can expect. Some issues with boarding because the previous plane took forever to deplane but overall, a good experience.
On Wednesday, July 30 we were in mid flight from Manchester to Charlotte and we turned around because the right engine was malfunctioning. That was the last flight out of Manchester that night. I was rebooked for Thursday, which became a weather event Friday. There were no seats left on the flight from Manchester to Charlotte. Consequently I didn’t leave Manchester until Saturday morning and we flew to Chicago so to say the least my scheduled flight and return to Iowa was three days off and it messed with my business schedule. Consequently cash flow. I would like some sort of acknowledgment of this event.
There is no room, no gluten free options, or any free internet/entertainment. You have to bring your own tablet or smartphone because there are no screens.
