The ticket I purchased through Kayak did not show up in my Alaska Airlines app, and neither of the codes given to me worked for online check in. I've never had to show up to the airport at 6am wondering if I've been scammed. Cheap flight fare or whatever does not play well with airlines and I will be wary of using Kayak in the future.
I would like if it had happened already. I'm still waiting for it.
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
I was in the middle seat in the last row but that wasn’t their fault. It is why I rated the flight as mediocre, also the landing was a little rough. The good was really good. The self service luggage belt at SEATAC stopped working right when I reached it. I was literally placing my bag on the small belt when the main belt stopped. I understand that it wasn’t just Alaska but the entire side of the terminal. It took the agents about 20 minutes to arrive at a game plan and it certainly wasn’t flawless but they arranged for our luggage to be taken to the plane the old fashioned way by hand. Understandably, the plane was late in leaving. The flight took the proper amount of time and instead of arriving at OAK at 1:45, we got there at 2:30. I took my time getting to baggage claim because I knew it would be late if it was there at all. Sure enough it wasn’t but there was an agent there to greet me and inform me about my luggage. Long story longer, they delivered my luggage to where I was staying which was an hour away from the airport. Alaska has instituted a delivery type tracking system through my email that kept me informed of where my luggage was the whole time. WELL DONE!!
Cramped, crowded aircraft. Poorly organized boarding. Tasteless crackers to eat. 40 minutes late. A standard US air travel experience.
Lots of turbulence in last 45 minutes, but captain kept us very well informed, which was a big help to a nervous flyer.
The staff was friendly. The flight was fine and the food service was fine. We found the Seattle Airport to be very confusing. And not user friendly. Not enough directional signs -- it was hard to figure out where to go. As we entered the line to get to where they checked our ID before we went through the bag check, the staff member wanted us to get out of the line to walk for much longer to get to that area. It was nuts. One of our party spoke up and insisted that we stay where we were. She let us proceed.
I would have appreciated notification that our flight was moved to another gate LAST MINUTE so that we would not have missed it. We got no such notice and had to spend another night to catch an available flight in the morning, which was huge inconvenience. We will never fly Alaska again.
The airline was way too cold. We were freezing, I don’t know if that is normal. Overall it was pretty good flight. Always flown Alaska Airlines and I am not changing.
After we boarded, we had to sit at the gate for an hour while they got some equipment to help us back out of the gate.
No gluten free snacks. Seats felt worn or bare bones even though it was a new 737 MAX 8.
Boarding was easy. The seats are small and fairly uncomfortable
The boarding and seat assignment system no longer works for me, but I know it is being replaced. Otherwise, I am good with the overall experience.
San Diego airport is brand new, spacious, airy and very smooth checkin at SW baggage drop.
Very smooth checking in our luggage with a super pleasant SW agent. I enjoyed a fun entertaining movie.
Great flight, 47 passengers on a 180 seat plane. Stewardess was pleasant and cheerful.
Fine, but how to board on SW versus othrr airlines, is just lame. Goood staff though and all was solid otherwise.
Everything went well, but the flight was delayed multiple times. The delays were only minutes, but it was without information on why it was delayed.
Multiple delays, poor communication of information and a 4 hour delay with multiple gate changes ...
No problems with the flight, my issue is with the terminal at SAN airport. I’ve never seen a dirtier, worse equipped terminal. No power plugs worked, but you could of course buy a fuel rod battery from the kiosk (seemingly the only thing that worked).
