Better could be service of your checking staff on the gait N15 at Seattle Tacoma airport... Flight AS 378 , 08/02/2025. Time 9.45 AM. I was very disappointed of their job.
My 1.5 hr flight was 5.5 hrs delayed. We switched gates twice. We planed and deplaned once. Three total planes, two had “mechanical issues.” None of this even makes sense as the original plane was sitting at the gate since yesterday evening. Then when the second plane was finally brought to the gate from the hangar, it too needed repair. Don’t worry. They gave us a $12 foot voucher. All other flights in the same area of the terminal were hours delayed. It was an actual nightmare. This was after a few hours delay on my first flight a few days ago. And I thought that was bad.
Terrible. Would never fly again. Took them several hours to prepare the plane and and reached my destination 4 hours late.
Our boarding was delayed due to two flat tires, but I appreciate the focus on safety. I also appreciated the additional offerings for drinks which never happened before except on Hawaiian Airlines. The hospitality is fantastic! Glad I upgraded to premium seats for the extra leg room as I was getting frustrated when the person in front of me was very restless and kept shifting. Otherwise, it was a fantastic experience.
More leg room would be nice. Especially for older people
We flew to Seattle on 7/21, right after the company wide problems the day before. We were delayed 3 hours but understood. We were grateful it wasn’t canceled. As a larger, disabled person, my son booked us in 1st class, row 1. That was fine. My problem occurred while trying to use the restroom. I had to back in and barely had room to move. I started into a silent panic attack where my breathing was affected. I made it back to my seat, shaken. I understand space is limited but something needs to be done. This was on the trip out. The return trip had 4-5 disabled passengers. I watched them struggle. This plane’s restroom was a “little “ bigger. It was a little easier compared to the first plane. That’s my opinion! The crews were fantastic on both flights!
I was in the middle seat in the last row but that wasn’t their fault. It is why I rated the flight as mediocre, also the landing was a little rough. The good was really good. The self service luggage belt at SEATAC stopped working right when I reached it. I was literally placing my bag on the small belt when the main belt stopped. I understand that it wasn’t just Alaska but the entire side of the terminal. It took the agents about 20 minutes to arrive at a game plan and it certainly wasn’t flawless but they arranged for our luggage to be taken to the plane the old fashioned way by hand. Understandably, the plane was late in leaving. The flight took the proper amount of time and instead of arriving at OAK at 1:45, we got there at 2:30. I took my time getting to baggage claim because I knew it would be late if it was there at all. Sure enough it wasn’t but there was an agent there to greet me and inform me about my luggage. Long story longer, they delivered my luggage to where I was staying which was an hour away from the airport. Alaska has instituted a delivery type tracking system through my email that kept me informed of where my luggage was the whole time. WELL DONE!!
Crew was very friendly. Our bags showed up at the carousel within 20 minutes of arrival.
Flight was delayed and hour due to tire issue. First flight of the day, this issue should have been discovered prior to boarding.
Both legs of the trip were delayed about an hour. Planes were new, liked the WiFi availability and entertainment available. Crew was very good. People were happy and helpful. Liked the pilots - they provided updates throughout the flights. Snacks were underwhelming. Drinks were good! Like the smaller sodas and they actually came through the cabin 2x which was great. In Seattle airport the construction caused much confusion for Alaska. Process of printing own tags, etc was chaotic for people who didn’t check in online prior to arrival which in turn caused issues for those who did. Plus airport gates were too small for the number of people flying.
