Flight was 1:20 later than booked & I never received notice. At airport way too early. Couldn’t hear announcements on PA system. Crew fine. Retrieving luggage fine. Overall experience not good.
I will never take a red-eye flight again. Crying babies. Complete full flight. Could not get comfortable. Not fun.
Flight was OK, landing not good, boarding was ridiculous. Flight was to load at gate n11 25 minutes before boarding time it was changed to s5 which is 3 tram connections on the other side of the airport, I'm handicapped and even getting a sky cap took 10 minutes needless to say just made it to boarding only because it was delayed. I did learn a valuable lesson don't show up for flight 2 hours early.
Only issue was the 2 hr delay after an 8 hr layover. Very long day.
Same crew flew with us from Palm Springs to Bellingham, so they were great! Friendly and kind from start to finish. Great experience!
Flight was very warm. It felt like there was no working AC.
Food was just ok..had snack box :( Crew was very nice
Passengers were not informed timely of delays. The staff appeared like they didn't really care about the passengers.
Food and entertainment aren’t a thing on these regional flights. But it was a smooth flight. Could see gorgeous countryside through the large windows. The earplugs are a nice touch for the prop engines but the hum of the engines did not bother me. Grateful the option exists to easily get from A to B.
Both flights were delayed going to our destination and leaving, and communication about the delays was not great by the airlines, now the crews were phenomenal and great to be around!!
The fact that I made my reservation with Hawaiian and then flew on Alaska really messed up my trip. From SeaTac to Omaha was awful, including having to rebook my flight for hours later because of not knowing I had to go to the Alaska check-in, thus losing time. Then I was back and forth across the airport because of gate changes that I found out about only during the final hour of a looooong day at the airport. Also, because of your system, I couldn't check in online ahead of time, either with Hawaiian or with Alaska. I feel like I never want to fly with either of you again. PS. I am almost 80 years old, have flown plenty, but do not have the stamina of a 30 year old. My phone told me I had to walk 11,000+ steps in SeaTac on the way out. It took me two days to recover when I finally got to Omaha.
Flight information board was not immediately available; however, it was not far from where I disembarked to my next flight.
No unruly passengers, started on time, easy transition to next flight.
Liked the crew and cleanliness. Terrible comfort (seats did not recline and located next to 3 bathrooms). Did not like the hidden fees, that now there is an additional fee to get a seat.
Terrible. A four hour delay to take off is unacceptable. arriving in Portland at 1:00 A.M.
Check in process was a mess. Long lines, equipment malfuctioning. One line for baggage tags then a second line for bag checkin.
Tried using the check in email that Kayak sent out and it wouldn’t allow me to check in. It took me about 40 minutes on a chat with Alaska Airlines to get the proper link to get my boarding pass.
It was not a good experience. When I went to check-in one of Alaska's employees told me I had to check-in with Hawaiian Airlines, which was on the opposite side of the airport. I made my way over and when I got to Hawaiian Airlines they told me I was in the wrong place. The employee saw the look of defeat in my face and was able to get someone to check me in and text me my boarding pass. I had to make my way all the way back to the other side of the airport and barely made my flight. I think it would be very helpful for employees to be more informed with these Hawaiian flights that are operated by Alaska so they are not rerouting people to the wrong terminals. Also, clear signage in the check-in area.
Same as ive said before. All airlines and TSA need a massive revamp.
Alaska airline sis usually great. However flying nowadays is so stressful and feels more like an interrogation rather than a fun part of the vacation experience. From the TSA to the cramped seating it feels like i am entering a concentration camp having my picture taken via TSA and being forced to have my body scanned. Then we are forced to sit in beyond cramped conditions where our knees are crushed into the back of the seat in front of us with almost no movement possible constantly being reminded to put our seats forward when we want to alleviate the horrendous pain of our knees being shoved into hard plastic. My knees looked like i had kneeled on gravel for 2 days straight after flying for a total of 14 hours for my roundtrip. I keep hearing from our elders about the jopys of flying in the 70s and 80s but now it feels like the joy has been removed as a means of acquiring more financial gain by the airlines. Not to mention that my flight via hawaiin airlines was delayed so long that i had to miss my connecting flight which then forced me to miss another day of work and the only recourse i had was a wonderful conversation with a lady via Alaskan Airlines when she got me a new flight the next day due to the delay. She was very pleasant and helpful. She got me onto a nother flight the following day but when i have to travel 2 hours from springfield Illinois to st louis it was a huge hassle having the delay in the first place. Not even the tiniest bit of compensation was offered either. Not a voucher, not a free meal, not a slightly better seat, just a reschedule when in no way was the delay or the missing of the connecting flight my fault. I want to reiterate that Alaska Airlines is really one of the best airlines overall. I fully understand they dont control the TSA, but it does effect the overall experience when TSA is making it feel like we are going through a re-education camp with rather strange videos playing on the walls the entire way through Security. With that said, Alaska should take cosnideration from years of past and make the flying experience fun again. I understand profit is important, but if just ONE airline made flying like it used to be 40 years ago and stopped making it such a money-driven experience, then i, along with many others would choose to fly more often. We see the smaller soda cans and we laugh, we see the tiny snacks and scoff, we see the ridiculous wifi costs and choose to not pay for it because we download our own prior to flying. Why not get everyone to use the wifi by making it like 2 bucks rather than 8 bucks? Make a much larger first class area with slightly lower costs so it doesn't feel like we are mere peons boarding a cattle car? Create some more leg room and watch how fast people are clamoring for your airline over others. Not one airline is actually catering to the general public, if they did, they would see so many people seeking out their airlines above all others and it is just that simple.
