I had to cancel my trip due to health reasons three days after making the reservation. I was stunned to find out that the ticket was not able to be credited for future travel. $734 loss. Not happy that this was not my experience with Southwest Airlines. I will stick with SW in the future. Boo Alaskan Air and Kayak.
On time departure and early arrival giving more than ample time for connecting flight.
Flight was scheduled to leave at 6a and delayed for 5 hours due to “mechanical” issues. Everyone else on the flight received an email voucher for $24 of food for the delay, except for our group. Also the carry on luggage bins were full and the crew requested that everyone to pass their carry ons back up to the front while everyone was still standing. They gave no other direction and kept rushing the process. After all bags were sent up, they then asked for seat #s to go with each bag… They should have probably had everyone get to their sits and then pass the bags up in a controlled process.
From Las Vegas to Boise all went well. However, our flight was delayed in Boise and I missed my connecting flight from Seattle to Pasco. Moreover, the last flight to Pasco was full and I was booked on the 11:30 flight Sunday and given a hotel accommodation. However, I was scheduled to deliver the Sunday morning service at my church and needed to arrive no later than 10:00. Therefore, I booked a Delta flight scheduled to arrive in Pasco at 23:09. My piece of luggage checked in Las Vegas arrived in Pasco earlier today. I waited at the airport for over an hour last night to speak with an Alaska agent to no avail. I went back after church this morning in search of my piece of luggage and it could not be located. After waiting for 40 minutes to speak to the agent authorized to take my claim, he announced that he was closing the counter to assist on the flight line but not before providing me with a telephone number that would help me with filing my claim. Before I was able to make the call (due to other factors) I received a call from Alaska agent informing me that my luggage had just arrived and I am now waiting for it to be delivered. I deliberately took the more complicated route home to ensure that I would be home in plenty of time to prepare for myself for the Sunday service and accommodate my relatives’ needs. I believe the airport is undermanned given the number of flights coming in and going out. It was fiasco last night with three flights waiting for luggage and another flight landing within minutes. Today’s problems stemmed from a lack of cross training and a serious amount of cargo/baggage going out and too few people scheduled to cover.
My flight from Spokane to Seattle was delayed about 26 minutes. I arrived at Seattle Airport at 3:21. My flight to Idaho Falls left at 3:35 and you all wouldn't wait for me. I ran for the gate and It would have cost you probably 10 min to wait. Now, I'm stuck at the Seattle airport for 5 hours. I would understand if waiting put you 30 min behind or an hour but I checked into that flight, you knew I was coming, and that my flight was delayed.
Alaska Airlines has the best service of airlines I have flown the last couple years. I always choose them first.
I know there were a lot of delayed flights, mine from Portland to Eugene was delayed by 3 hours, but not from one employee was there a" we are so sorry about the delay or is there anything we could get you, I thought it was very un-professional and rude.
The flight was fine, but the Kayak app is terrible. I could not input my flight. I couldn’t use it for anything and it would not even let me try to add a seat once you purchased the ticket you might as well. Delete the Kayak app as far as I’m concerned. I’m done with kayak. Com
the planes were beautiful!! crew was outstanding...flight on time and baggage was quick... can't think of ANYTHING that could have been better. thanks for a great trip!!
Terrible. We were bumped off our flight to another and weren't sent notice until we were on our prior flight. We got home four hours later and the airline couldn't have cared less.
