Very pleasant , a flight attendant Jo did a great job mixing me up a beverage and just brightened the trip .

Spent 30 minutes in tarmac bcoz arrived earlier and crew nit ready for us. Told that the airport is being renovated so limited arrival space. 6 hours flight should have not two snacks but one major meal.

Flight attendant was rude when I advised her that the bathroom had no paper towels or tissue paper.

everything was good but due to some sort of issue with the alaska airlines app we were not able to verify our passport info, event thought we uploaded all the info online at home before we left for our trip. Upon arrival at the airport LAX for departure we were told we still had to check in with the desk and this put as well behind the amount of time needed to safely make our departure flight. This was a major inconvience and a big stress on our family. We almost missed our flight.

Departing flight to San Diego was delayed. Return flight from SD to SBP was delayed. Not terrible but not ideal

Good leg room, no problem with overhead storage and the staff was super helpful.

Seats were not allocated until we arrived at the boarding gate, My children were split up and sat seperatley to both us parents. 1 a 13 year old girl.

I purchased the internet during the flight and it stopped working after 1 hour, so I barely got to use it.

Good experience, although it was a little cramped being a tall person. Otherwise everything went smoothly and professionally though

Big delay of over 7 hours on next leg of trip with Alaska. Would have been nice to have food or something
