I went Premium otherwise it would have been a long wait. On board I only asked for a cup of hot water and got lukewarm. Cabin crew have poor to no service. But great flight; it went smooth.

I went Premium otherwise it would have been a long wait. On board I only asked for a cup of hot water and got lukewarm. Cabin crew have poor to no service. But great flight; it went smooth.

Great flight Pilot was friendly and kept us informed when small delay to de ice plane

Once again, AA overbooked this flight, stranding passengers in between blizzards in Jackson. At least this time the agent took volunteers - on my flight TO Jackson from LAX, AA simply cut off boarding midway through Group 7 without warning. This flight was mostly fine, with the exception of the flight attendants. They stowed my carry-on (and a few others') at the front of the plane, but didn't pull the bags out upon landing, nor even communicate to that there were bags there to the crew. The crew had to go searching for my bag after I explained it should've been on the valet cart. When I got to the shuttle, my flight attendants were already on it. Seems they were in a hurry to clock out... at the expense of me and other passengers who had trusted them with our luggage.

Delayed take off for 30 minutes and then 50 minutes on the tarmac before we could get to our gate... a total of one hour delay on the ground at LAX. Additionally, they put on the seatbelt sign for 2 hours so no one could use the toilet and then one hour on the tarmac with again not being able to use the toilet... not a great flight.

It was a good flight . It wasn’t a full flight so we had space to move around

They change my entire itinerary… not what I booked…. There should be consequences

Every one of the people at Alaska Airlines were helpful and kind. My complaints are systemic in the industry - small seats, tiny packages of pretzels (why bother?), and a general shabbiness that I attribute to the lion’s share of their profits going to execs and investors instead of building a better business.

Was fortunate the fare was the lowest I’ve seen. Am loyal to Alaska and booked everything on the app. Very pleased with all the reminder emails. Changed seats and ordered food by app. Despite the door plug incident, and the flight on a Max9, it was still very relaxing. Very happy with the crew. They were all very polite and gracious. I wish I could thank them all again. Turbulent a little but great flight. Oh, and the snack box was worth it!

Even though we were delayed everything went very smoothly. My only complaint is that because the plane had to be balanced my daughter couldn’t sit together with my husband and I. Thank you

From the time we landed to the time we got to baggage claim was 50 min. We had several delays in the deplaning process. Other passengers were concerned about missing connecting flights.
