$88 Find Cheap Flights from San Francisco to Washington Dulles Airport

I had never flown Alaska before. Years ago I flew constantly. Flying these days is not a glamorous experience. It’s not that easy to get inexpensive direct flights either. Not glamorous but reasonably priced and comfortable. I appreciated the inflight WiFi (for messaging only but that’s ok, I like to read on flights). I didn’t check the inflight entertainment, see above. I was lucky on the AUS => SFO flight—they needed volunteers to check bags at the gate. That bumped me up a level in status so they let me move to an empty exit row. The return flight I was assigned a seat in one. Very nice. As pleasant a trip as possible these days.

Ground crew at SFO checking didn’t print my boarding passes for my second leg … creating a full mess at LAX So the desk asked for my passports, and was able to check in my luggage up to the final stop, they never realized that our journey was made up 2 legs.

no entertainment which was ok with us. Great crew, great ascent, rockier landing, empty air lane so very comfortable. fun pilot

I feel that for the price that I paid, I should’ve received zone one boarding. Said I was zone two. And even though I paid for an upgraded seat, I was lucky to get a space for my carry-on baggage. So I think the value wasn’t there.

I did not find out about the delay until I got to the airport where I had to wait 3 hours, not cool. I missed a special gathering. Everyone on staff was very nice.

Plane was ok. I would have liked to watch movies with a screen on the seat, and head phone were not provided. Most importantly the left left and arrived on time.

The crew was hilarious. They made the flight even more enjoyable. My husband and I enjoyed the ample leg room.

Everything went smoothly at the airport and on the flight. So, I had a positive experience with no issues.

There was no coffee on the flight. I was very surprised. I know it is a small thing, but they seemed to have run out of other drinks.

I don't understand why passengers are frequently told that they must check their carry-on luggage due to the full flight and we board and find there are multiple empty overhead cabins with space for our carry-on. Crew should be more accurate in their assessment of the space (they have radios and I assumed they were in communication with a crew member on the plan who could tell them that the spaces were full or that there were remaining spaces). We were told in no uncertain terms that any remaining passengers yet to board had to check their carry on because no space remained on the plane, but there were multiple spaces available (including some that were completely empty) when we boarded. As someone who travels with things I must have with me, I do not appreciate this misinformation which causes me delay because I have to wait at baggage claim to get my small carry-on.

Delta flight was great from the check in all the way to arrival. However, I had a very bad experience. I requested a wheelchair and the wheelchair employee that went to pick me up from the plane in Boston to bring me to the baggage claims told me I have to pay him. I was under the impression that it was a free service and I usually give tips but the person forced me to pay and since I said no because I was upset with his demand when my daughter walked in to pick me up he demanded payment from my daughter who paid him thinking maybe now it is a charged service.

Horrible. Grateful to be alive but spent 13 hours at airport only to return back to my familys house and flight changed to next day. They tried to fix a part on plane, had no back up plane and after 10 hours , reattempted the flight and it STILL wasn't fixed. We got a meal voucher and rescheduled flight but there should be some other compensation for the 15 hours spent in airport

My seat was changed at the last minute and I was moved to the last row, right next to the bathroom despite selecting my seat well in advance. I was also made to check my carry on due to space but when I got on the plane there was significant empty overhead space. Picking up my carry on from the luggage carousel added time to my trip which had already been extended due to delay.

There was plenty of overhead room but half of the passengers were told they had to check their carryon bags. My partner and I checked in as early as possible and our seats were split across the aisle.

Flew first class so everything was great. But maybe because the flights were red eye, no meals were served, just chips. I flew Alaska Air 1st class at 9PM (2 hour flight) and they served beef short rib sliders!

There was a loud squeaky sound the whole time we were flying.

I didn’t not like that I could not select my seat and ended up with the worse seat.

The landing was bad and the hostess came two times and i was sleeping but when she served the person that nexts to me I woke up and she didn’t even asked me if I need any drink or snacks two times!!!!

Plane was late because of a mechanical malfunction and the food listed as available was not. Flight attendants seem over worked and under paid. They just done seem happy. And that can be seen in their faces.

Waited 3 hours on a plane to de-ice due to manpower issues. Waited another hour and a half once we landed because of a gate issue. Missed my connections. Created. A total of 13 hours of delay.

Really solid flight! The in-flight entertainment screens are not very touch-responsive in the way that of other airlines’ are, which was my only issue. But otherwise we had good food and drink offerings and the flight attendants were very welcoming.

Left late after one day delay. Even after we were called to board we stood in line for 30 minutes. Seemed disorganized.

They opened my checked bag and even though my lock was tsa approved, they loose my lock and left my bag just like that. Incompetent people, very upset about it. I’ll try to avoid traveling with united

Slight delay but not bad. UA app worked well! Got regular updates of gate changes, etc. Don't have any complaints.

Luggage management is poor, my missing luggage is still lingering.

Short and everyone communicated with me about the changes every step of the way.

Crew was good. Check-in and boarding was terrible. Family wasn’t seated together. Online check-in wasn’t available.

Airline staff was good the checkin process was ok but the plane itself was very bad the comfort was worst it was worst and the most stiff 5 hours of my life i felt claustrophobic

Flight got canceled after a 2 hr delay followed by the to crew timing out. No help with hotels, crew were rude, only help was via an online chat. Got rebooked for a non-direct flight 48hrs later. They could not have cared less regarding how this could create a medical emergency. They refused to give us access to our luggage because it was stuck in their transit area and had to remain their to be loaded on our next flight…so we have the clothes we have in and nothing else. They told us to “go buy clothes” ignoring the fact that Munich shops are all closed on Sunday. We were told we could get refunded for our expenses BUT one crew member told us it would be wise to spend as little as possible as it will “take forever to get your money returned”. I’ll never fly them again.

We left 3 hours late. Of 4 flights on my trip, 3 left at least 3 hours late and one flight was canceled

Excellent accommodating crew at gate and on board. Baggage claim and gate checking were flawless.

Best flight by a pilot I’ve ever been on as a 62 year old

Mobility assistance at DFW is A JOKE!!! Totally disorganized, ineffective and annoying. Ended up having to walk and find our own way for a good part of the very, very long walk between gates. Worst assistance I have ever experienced.

After multiple delays (I lost count), the flight was canceled due to a "maintenance issue". So instead of a direct flight arriving at 5:00, I had to take a flight connecting through Chicago. That flight was also delayed, partially because the plane from the cancelled flight hadnt been removed from the gate and there was nowhere for the other plane to park. (Did nobody think this might be an issue during the hours after that flight was canceled?) The connecting flight out of Chicago was delayed as well. I didn't arrive until 12:30am the next morning. I should have just cancelled the trip. It wasn't worth the hassle and stress.

This is a new route from Philadelphia to Naples. It was sold out. The team on board was excellent. I’ve flown this route twice this year and the flight has been excellent. I hope American keeps the route.

It was the worst experience ever. Cabin temperature cold, for which they did not have any blankets upon my asking. We paid $125 extra for each passenger to get extra space sits; the sits were ridiculously small, tight, and uncomfortable! The flight attendant dropped ice on me and my sister! All in all, American Airlines deserves below zero!

Perfect flight. Efficient boarding, on time take off and early arrival. Generally smooth flight.

The flight was delayed two hours, with no information as to why. The gate also changed several times which was aggravating. Would not fly through DFW again.

Internet service was erratic. Crew service was poor and slow. My luggage on this non-stop flight was lost and not recovered

Terrible. I didn’t fly and I had an important meeting the next day.

Long lines, rude staff, everything that's offered you have to pay for.

Our flight was delayed by four hours without notice, the app for getting my boarding pass is super confusing, and I wasn’t able to check a suitcase without paying for a higher cost package

First the gate was a total nightmare-no chairs anywhere! So over crowded and only one bathroom and nightmare of food service - took forever and NOT one place to sit. No inflight entertainment and had to pay 60.00 for a small carry on. I will never fly Frontier again!

Literally everything could have been better. Why are the planes always late?

I didn't like anything about the flight It was my first time and definitely my last time boarding a frontier flight. Their counter agents need training and they need to learn to communicate regularly and respectfully

The last time I flew Frontier was in the 1960s when it was a “real” airline. We flew this time because of the price & schedule. As the saying goes, you get what you pay for.

After 5 hours of delay, they cancelled the flight. Very disappointed

My flight to LA was cancelled. I waited at the airport for 3 hrs saying it was delayed and then all of a sudden it was cancelled. Frontier only gave me a voucher and refund but could not rebook me. Flights on other airlines were too expensive last minute. I had to drive down to LA and didn’t even take my return flight home since I had to drive. One of the worst airline experiences in my life. It’s crazy how airlines can just upend people’s plans just like that.

Flight was 3 hours late leaving. Poor communication from the staff about delays. Impossible to get in touch with customer service (by design). And it actually didn't come out to be much cheaper than a non-budget airline! Not worth the headache, I'm never flying Frontier again

The flight attendence were extremely rude and I am disabled
