The plane was clearly new and very clean. Flight attendants were attentive and pleasant. I liked the new access to wifi.
I paid extra to choose my seat. I chose a window seat. I don’t know if it was a disconnect between KAYAK or the airline but when we got to the airport, the seat was changed to a middle seat. Didn’t notice it til at the gate. I called wanted a refund and was told that I didn’t choose the seat even though on my KAYAK reservation it showed seat 12 A. So I paid extra for seat selection, but didn’t get it. And also did not get a refund. I specifically pay the extra for a seat selection. I normally am very happy with Alaska Airlines. They are usually in my top three of choices.
very cramped in seating, especially when person in front of us put their seat back.
SeaT was a mess, couldn't get our wheelchair service. Had to walk all the way to N. Once we found our flight. Check in and baggage was terrible.
I was not made aware that the seat I paid extra money for would not recline. This was an over night flight, with a seat that was designed to not recline. Flight was on time. Crew was polite and efficient. SEAT DID NOT RECLINE. HOW DO YOU SLEEP WITH A SEAT THAT DOES NOT RECLINE? I WAS NOT TOLD THAT THE SEAT WOULD NOT RECLINE.
Pretty good flight. Airport lounge was dirty, crowded, and noisy.
They sat me in a better row and seat. Was not squished like the flight from Tucson to Seattle. Because I was in a wheelchair, everyone was very solicitous. Great flight. The only thing that disappointed me was there was no WiFi.
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.
Since the flight was delayed, snacks and water were provided.
Talk about boarding with ALOHA. The attendants at the counter and the flight crew were so cheerful and happy, it was good to go home with that little bit of friendly aloha I seem to not get on other flights. I have not flown Hawaiian Airlines for quite some time, but this was better than most of my flights back to the islands. I loved the comfortable seats, the updated videos that were so culturally integrated with necessary information. For example, how many times do you have to watch a flight attendant give the same ol spiel on how to use your seat buckle. Instead their modern video of actual flight attendants on a beach talking about how you should you operate your buckle. Or how about the kane dancing hula in the loi'i patches and talking about where the exits are on the plane. It was fantastic and entertaining. I also liked the fact that I was offered a breakfast sandwich that was quite tasty. Nowadays you have to spend $10 on anything inflight and it just gets so ridiculous with prices it was nice not to have to pay for a snack. I also liked the fact that for a nice sugar rush, Honolulu Cookie Company cookies were given. How is that for advertising? Love, love, and loved it even more. As a local I sure felt the spirit of Aloha on this trip coming home and I would never say no to flying Hawaiian Airlines again.
