Previously there were complimentary beverages served on short flights with Alaska Airlines. It was a very nice amenity and would love it if Alaska Airlines brought back that service!!
Initial flight was delayed, which caused me to miss my only connecting flight.
I'm tall and the seats do not have a headrest so its hard to get comfortable. Staff and checking were all great.
Don’t cancel the flight, had to spend a whole day sitting in the airport.
The flight attendant was very rude when I boarded. He expressed how he couldn't understand how I was able to bring two "oversized" bags onto the plane and "just this once" he would allow me to try to get my soft-sided duffle bag in the overhead compartment. These two oversized bags consisted of a roller computer bag that is small enough to fit under the seat of a small regional jet and a soft-sided duffle bag with a removal wheels system. Prior to the pandemic, I traveled for work twice a week. I suffer from neck and upper back issues and because of that, I researched carry-on luggage, looking for the smallest carry-on that would fit my needs, a 17" "under the seat" roller bag. How on earth is a bag, small enough to fit under the seat considered OVERSIZED? Then when I asked for an explanation, as I like to be an educated traveler, he got very indigent and "passed me off" to someone else to talk to me. The explanation I was given was it had to do with the wheels and the size of the luggage is not taken into consideration, REALLY? No one, in the general public would automatically understand that the presence of wheels on a piece of luggage would throw it in the Oversized" category and for the Alaska staff to not have the ability to make a logical decision and think for themselves to offer a reasonable level of customer service speaks to the culture of the company and where Alaska places customer service in their priorities. Your c-suite should spend a day with the Nordstrom's and learn a thing or two about creating a culture of reasonable and responsible customer service.
Shari, flight attendant was impatient and rude. I am a seasoned traveler and I know how passengers should be treated. We were boarding with family and we were trying to figure out our seat assignment and instead of lending us a helping hand she yelled at us and embarrassed us. We were literally there for less than 30 seconds and she made quite the show about us getting out of the isle instead of asking if we need assistance. I could not believe how rude she was. My husband and children were with me and can attest to her rudeness. After she yell at us to "get out of the isle, she literally went the opposite direction of the people boarding, towards the front of the plane and held up the flow of boarding herself. I think she has an attitude problem which needs to be addressed. It takes a lot to make me mad, I am a very peaceful person and because of her rudeness, I was upset. That is not the way passengers should be treated,
I liked that I arrived safety to Seattle then Honolulu . However, flight was delayed twice in Pasco. I still had to pay for checked in bag. My bag was lost and shown "still on counter at Seattle." I didn't get my bag until 8/2/24 in the evening when I arrived on 8/1/24. Terrible experience .
Alaska crew was so friendly and made the trip great.
I was happy with my whole experience, and it was a smooth flight. Thank you
Checking in was very easy. Boarding and the flights went smoothly.
My flight was delayed by 4 hours in 30 minute increments. The gate agents were amazing but the communication was not. We were told that there was a maintenance issue but they didn't know what it was. That didn't inspire confidence. Then they said they found it and it was fixed and the pilot just needed to sign off. Then the pilot needed to talk to the other pilot from the arriving flight and we'd be fine. Then we were waiting for the pilot to call back. Then the maintenance issue wasn't fixed. Then they decided we were getting a new plane (why didn't they decide this earlier??). Fine. But then they announced we were changing gates AND terminals. And we were boarding in 20 minutes. So we all had to run to the new terminal gate. We could have taken off at that time, but we then had to wait for all the people who rebooked on a different flight to book this flight again. That took 30+ minutes because there was only one gate agent. When everyone ditched this flight, I saw it as an opportunity to upgrade to comfort. Delta, the greedy jerks they are, charged me $121. After their delay, their fault, their issues, couldn't even discount an upgrade. They only handed out $12 meal vouchers for the delay. I can't even get a snack from starbucks for that.
Love me some Delta. One of the few airlines to recognize and support veterans. Easy boarding, flight was on time and arrived early and the flight attendants were excellent on this flight.
We sat on the runway for over an hour before departure. That was unwelcome.
We departed early and made up time in the air allowing us to arrive 30 minutes early. Capt was incredibly genuine and thanked every passenger for flying with Delta. Completely humble and professional!
The boarding process needs to be refined. Sometimes the gate crew calls out the zones and then flip to showing the.zones boarding on the gate monitor display. So, unless you are huddled around the gate lanes watching the monitor, you could miss your boarding zone. Suggest the zones be announced each time a new zone is allowed to board.
This route with Delta always has delays or is cancelled. Aircrafts seem smaller and older. I fly Delta quite a bit - haven’t had issues with the international flights. But this route has always been the troublesome one
On 2 different flights the wifi was horrible and there was no drink or snack service.
There was no FREE wi-fi nor entertainment screens at all.
Great, on time departure, friendly and accommodating crew, great leg room, Smith flight
As we lined up to board they gave our plane to a flight going to Newark. So then we got delayed until they could find another plane. Flight crew was ok. I’m assuming since it’s a shorter flight they only offered water and coffee.
Flight was delayed “due to earlier delays of that plane”, so we were nearly three hours late.
Crew was amazing, takeoff wonderful. The bathroom was disgusting from before takeoff the odor made the flight uncomfortable as you could smell the bathroom from the center of the plane where we were sitting. Smelled like raw sewage. My daughter was throwing up as we landed due to the smell and horrible turbulence as we approached Newark.
Airport terminal was outdated, flight was on a small jet with no wifi
Essy to get on. The hostess gave very little pop, the plane was late getting in, and we are still waiting for our bags. This sucks. :/
Lately I like the planes have been exceptionally filthy. There’s lines of dust and dirt all across the ceiling in the vents, and the cracks in between the seats are literally full of food. It’s definitely not the quality of service that I was used to with United. I’m also very disappointed with the Wi-Fi! All I wanna do is knock out a few work jobs while I’m trapped in my seat And it spools so bad. They did provide me with a refund, but the process of getting that refund is so complicated. It’s unfortunate.
Excellent flight. Smooth, efficient boarding. Quick flight. Arrived early at STL.
Short flight - no food understandable. Flight was delayed for over an hour. Overall, it was good.
We boarded and buckled and then deplaned due to no pilot. Had to wait over 3 hours for a new pilot. Not weather related, just poor management.
Last minute gate change nearly caused us to miss our flight. Change was not announced or displayed in the main board at the old gate. Terrible communication. When we landed we had to wait 20 minutes because there was another plane at the assigned gate. Not the crew’s fault, but adding 20 minutes to a 45 minute flight sucked.
By in large it was a good experience. The flight crew was great and that's the most important to me. Boarding was fine.
