My issue is not with Alaska for but with the travel agency. The fact that i can't change my flight online, means that using you as a travel agency is a net negative. I only do it because I am forced to, but I am not happy about it.
I was very impressed at how Alaska Airlines handles people with medical needs.
Flight was delayed, but not be a lot. Crew at the departure gate was friendly. Flight was filled with turbulence, enough to concern my husband. Snacks were delivered to rows in front of us but attendant stopped handing out snacks when she got to our row. Team was efficient but lackadaisical. Usually on board crews are more animated and friendly. No onboard entertainment and no seatback video screens for a six hour flight. Landing was a bit rough. We were told the wrong turnstile for luggage.
90 minute delay boarding the plane, 45 minute delay on the terminal, 2 hours late arriving, currently waiting 45 minutes on the tarmac for a gate so we can BEGIN deboarding. Absolute mess. Definitely will be my last flight with Alaska.
The boarding pass had no gate published and there are many fewer large boards with arrivals and departures I almost missed my flight trying to find the gate
The check-in crew for Alaska was rude, unhelpful, and the opposite of customer-centric. We arrived 50 minutes before our flight and were told it was too late to check baggage. When I asked what the cutoff was, the agent started speaking in codes “D50” and yelling to their manager who also spoke in codes. They then tried to speak to me using these codes and all I wanted to know was the time of the cutoff, which they would not — or could not — articulate. They booked me and my family on the next flight while smirking.
Were on time, very efficient and pleasant. Families with children were treated well and boarded ahead which made it easier for the rest of the plane.
Flight delays were really annoying, but otherwise the experience was fine
Provide blankets for main cabin please it’s too cold inside
Could not check in online - had to get boarding passes at the ticket counter and our daughter got bumped off our connecting flight. NOT OK!
Very good. Nice plane and we sat in economy plus - bigger seats, more room. They served a meal and snacks, and the meal was an apple stuffed pancake that was very good! The snack for us was a hummus sandwich - also very good. The flight attendants were helpful and nice. They have plenty of movies and shows to watch. My only negative -- they changed our flights around and did not adjust the layovers, so we ended up with a very long and unnecessary layover in Honolulu.
Customer service by Susan of Alaskan Air was outstanding. We missed our flight out of JFK. She got us rebooked the following day. Way to go Susan.
Liked the crew. Seats were uncomfortable during the last few hours of the 11 hour flight. Better selection of movies .
The flight from HON to Hilo caused a few problems, but we were helped by the checking agent at Hawaiian Airlines with tech assistance. My wife & I are in our 70's and not QR code savvy. But we are learning.
I would like diabetic options for food. Seating was a little tight. Everything else went smooth
The extra leg room seat I paid a premium for was not at all what I expected. Everytime the person in front of me reclined the seat my food fell off the tray. The person behind me kept putting her knee in my back.
2nd flight of the day, delayed from the 1st flight being inoperable, and then this one was delayed 45 mins too.
Overall, the experience was good, but not special in any way. Fortunately, the flight was quite short. There was no one at the check-in kiosks to answer questions or help. The top of my armrest fell off when I grabbed it to stand up. One hates to see the plane falling apart!
The crew was quick and efficient. The flight was uneventful and arrived slightly early.
The flight left over an hour late and sat on the runway another half an hour or so.
