10-19-2026 Appreciated the very pretty dark haired agent who allowed me to take a selfie of her as she took me down the jet way. I arrived as one of first three at the boarding gate for this flight. The blonde agent waited five minutes before departure to assign a seat for me. Moments of stressful waiting but the long dark haired capable agent knew I was waiting and kept checking on my status with the control agent and even asked where of the remaining rows was available for me to board. Efficient, kind, caring I hope the agent keeping an eye out for me gets management or lead status because she certainly knows what's going on and is very professional read more

Taking flight... What makes it worth the choosing any airline...the perks, for me it is though the whole point is from A to B and getting it all there your luggage and personal items including yourself is all that matters everything else is cloud 9. Well with Alaska for me it's the turbulence and there was A LOT of it literally which is all Mother Nature but one thing I can't comprehend is taking away the status benefits or making limitation where it doesn't seem to matter anymore. Technically there aren't any dedicated lounge here at this International Airport and don't believe any information that it's their dedicated lounge if you're not a member "X" good luck, the aircraft is SO old and dated the first class restroom is a joke as a short person I could barely navigate can just imagine anyone taller than me. Chairs barely recline back...not even the slight bougie, also flying to Hawaii you need to fill out agriculture form (annoying) which is online ONLY now and finally admits that wifi is spotty and to fill it out at the gate versus on the aircraft is pathetic the only worth while is easy boarding and check in. read more

We really like flying Alaska Airlines. The employees are always friendly and the planes are clean. We were five-plus hours in the air to Maui in coach. Becky was in the middle seat and she was sort of squished in there. That was a bummer for her. She's 5' 10", so leg room is priority. It was a good flight though and we caught a tailwind and arrived in Maui early. For our return flight we upgraded to the two-seat aisle with more leg room, wider seats with monitors in the headrests for movie viewing AND free drinks. I think it was around $200 total for the upgrade. Totally worth it. read more

When you absolutely need not to be on time and like enjoying long waits on the tarmac - when taking off AND landing - Alaska is for you. I figure I would write this while on the tarmac while the pain is still fresh. 45 minutes on the tarmac leaving Newark and an additional 30 minutes at San Diego. The plane detoured to get away from bad weather which resulted in a 7 h flight time. Beverage cart came only twice the entire flight. I don't know wha to they are trying to do - take Spirit Airlines as the worst airline? AS 578 - crew needs their heads examined - poor service for such a torturous flight. read more

Overall a positive experience with Alaska Airlines from San Diego to Boston: the new airplane with more comfortable seats, a better place to prop your screen, more seat-back plug in options to charge your phone or computer, yummier snacks to purchase on board (the Mediterranean tapas box was pretty good for $10-pita chips, hummus, olives, dried mango, piece of chocolate). The staff on board the plane were friendly and helpful. However, my one major critique was that they only had one staff for general curbside check-in and luggage drop off. Despite using the kiosk to print out our tags ourselves, we still had to wait in a long line to have them weigh our luggage and check our IDs, easily remedied by having at least one more staff. The first class staff did call us over once she was through with her line but I really thought a second economy staff was needed, especially since half the passengers were waiting to check in until they reached the front of the line, old school style, so that the guy had to print out their tags for them and their boarding passes... Thank goodness for TSA precheck which made the security portion of the morning go super fast. In any case my overall impression of Alaska Airlines was improved by the efficiency and comfort of the flight itself. read more

Frankly, I'm kind of surprised Alaska only has 2 stars on Yelp! Shocked really! Their comfortable seats, roomy legroom, and attentive in-flight service are just a few reasons why I love flying Alaska- especially when traveling to my favorite place in the world, Hawaii! My last trip was memorable for sure! I suffered a terrible fall and tore my meniscus on the last day of our trip. It was quite the experience! The next day we took a red eye back to San Diego. My wife checked us in and explained that I was going to need a wheel chair. Not only did they provide me with a wheelchair, but they also assisted me and my family with our luggage. With the help of Alaska, they guided us through TSA and directed us to the main gate. They also upgraded my family to business class while upgrading me to first class. From start to finish the process was seamless! Thanks to Alaska Airlines and their superb customer service! I will forever be indebted to them! read more

I love the Customer Service that Alaska Airlines provides to their clients. The flight attendants are always friendly. On this particular trip, there was a seating issue with some people in my area. I switched seats with someone so they could have more legroom. In exchange, I had an empty seat next to me. Alaska Airlines gave us points for our troubles. I enjoy the snack and drink options. The seating is comfortable. Whenever I fly Alaska, I don't have issues with the airline running behind or anything like that. It's always a positive experience! read more

We flew Alaska Airlines from San Diego to Fresno, super easy! It was just and up and down flight but it was super smooth and the flight attendants were very friendly. Would I fly Alaska Airlines again, absolutely! read more

I fly Alaska airlines often because it has a direct flight to my home town. I have flown first class & coach. Either way the service is always great. I love the drinks and snacks they pass out. The planes are clean, seats are what's to be expected. I like that they allow active duty military members to board right away. I enjoy the free WiFi & free in flight movies- definitely helps the time go by faster. I've always had a spot for my carry on in the upper compartment bins. I will definitely continue to fly with Alaska Airlines. read more

I have been flying Alaska Airlines and I have had a positive experience. Although, I still can't figure out how they misplaced my checked bag on a direct flight from SAN to JFK. Luckily, they recovered it and had it delivered to my hotel the night of my arrival. I flew premium class and had leg room, earned some points and am excited that they merged with Hawaiian Airlines for more privileges. And, then there is the food; it's really good! Yes, you may have to pay a little bit, but I don't feel like they are ripping you off. The flight crew and passengers from SAN to NYC were cheeky. For the trip back, my friend was going to have delays due to the snow in NYC and I had the option of switching my flight up to a week due to the fires in LA so we stayed an extra night with free points. Look forward to the next great adventure and thank you Alaska for having direct flights to a few of my favorite places. #AlaskaAirlines #HawaiianAirlines #ToBeYoungAndInLoveInNewYorkCity #LAUV read more

After an hour and a half delay due to a flat tire, I believe all passengers were a little frustrated and anxious to get home or to their next destination. But once we got on board, Gabi and Katie took such great care of us. A huge smile as we walked on board and they couldn't have been better throughout flight 1397. As soon as we hit 10,000 feet or as I like to call it the cocktail altitude, they were on it, and there is nothing better than a buffalo trace at 37,000 feet. The lunch selections were OK I did not go with the black bean burger, but had a chicken salad that did the trick. Nice smooth flight brand new plane but best of all great service thank you Alaska. read more

Alaska airlines is lit!!! Not literally ... don't worry. We're safe. But in all seriousness, I love this airline so much. Comfy seats, great WiFi. And the snack packs are fire. 10/10 highly recommended read more

Our flight from San Diego to Hawaii, scheduled for a 09:07 departure, experienced an initial 30-minute delay before boarding commenced, with no immediate explanation provided. Following an hour of sitting on the aircraft at the gate, the Captain informed us that the delay stemmed from pre-existing issues with the aircraft from the previous evening. After an additional hour, we were advised that the aircraft needed to return to the gate for maintenance to address certain error codes. While we prioritize safety, the communication and management of this situation have been unsatisfactory. A significant portion of the passengers consisted of military personnel and their families, who have been kept waiting for over four hours without a clear resolution regarding the flight's status. This level of uncertainty is unacceptable. read more

I have reservations with Alaska Airlines to fly to Kauai on 9/23. I have been informed that we should not travel to Kauai due to the catastrophic hurricane damage. Our VRBO cancelled our reservation. Alaska Airlines was NO HELP AT ALL! After being on hold for over 2 hours the agent said Alaska Airlines would not assist their customers with airfare refunds or changes. DO NOT FLY ALASKA...they are definitely not customer supportive! read more

Alaska Airlines, I did want to love you. But this morning's kerfuckah was extreme. Even for an airline. 8:10 am flght San Diego CA to San Francisco CA. Arrived airport 6:3O am to FUN news that our flight has been rerouted to San Jose. No reason given. just re-routed. Lyft vouchers available for the 45-55 minute drive from San Joe to San Fran. Then. Flight is delayed. Then. Flight is cancelled. (No reason given) Then. it's just 'Gate 21 for Customer Service' Customer Service. Line. Long, long, long. 6 desks with only 2 people working. Nationals making connections in SF begin to simmer. International connections hit hard boil. Meanwhile, Husband is valiantly searching for options. Alaska msg comes in saying we are rebooked for a 1:30 departure. But. Um. OOPSIE ALASKA. 1:30 departure is well past time we need to be in SF to make the appointment we were going to SF for in the first place. Husband gets our ownselves onto an earlier flight, Alaska 3347 at 11 am. (Why didn't/couldn't Alaska re-book us on a 1:30 pm? Deep mystery.) But. Now we must now cancel the 1:30 pm flight, in person, to retrieve bags. Good thing I'm still waiting in this CS line! (1 hour, 23 minutes to be exact). Just watching two very slow, very tired women hate their way through the job. Older couple behind us says ' Why haven't they sent for help to deal with all of these passengers?' Good question. Husband holds my place in CS line, while I go ask Ter, (very kind agent at a nearby gate) and he makes a call. SO THANK YOU TER!! WE LOVE YOU TER! But your employer? No. So Alaska. Get a better plan to handle the hundreds of people counting on you just do a job we are paying more and more for to get less and less . We understand that stuff happens. We don't understand why you seem so completely unprepared, understaffed, and (customer) underserved when it does. read more

Flights are ok but nothing special. What's super frustrating is that Alaska doesn't send you a single receipt for your flights when you book through their website. I get requests to change my flight, pre-book a meal, check-in, but not a single god damn email with the amount i paid for my flights. And instead it's 45mins on hold for a phone call. No reply from their text serivce. No reply on the web browser. Awful customer service. read more

Arrived early. Sat in a comfy chair with an outlet for charging and caught up on life emails texts etc. Pretty view of the planes and workers. Friendly gate agents. There was a delay in takeoff but totally out of their control. Very fast boarding and it was clean so thank you to the airport staff for caring. People travelling are stressed and messy. read more

Fast & efficient boarding! After a weather delay, we were boarded quickly & took off. Alaska was great about communicating to us on the status of the flight. Great gate staff & flight crew. My burger was a little off, but the hot nuts were great! read more

I've been a long-time Alaska Airlines customer, but my recent experience at the San Diego airport was unacceptable. When I approached the gate, the flight attendant (stewardess) claimed she didn't see my service dog on the list and insisted on seeing my paperwork. I provided it immediately, yet she continued to be rude, dismissive, and would not even look me in the eye. Only after her manager arrived--who clearly confirmed that my service dog was on the list--did she stop, and even then he had to tell her to be quiet. A few steps later, I was told I wasn't checked in and wasn't even on the flight manifest, which again the manager had to correct. Alaska Airlines later sent me a voucher as a customer service gesture, but that doesn't erase the fact that this kind of treatment should never have happened in the first place. What I want to see is staff being properly trained--because kindness and respect go a long way. Customers, especially those traveling with service animals, deserve to feel welcomed and respected, not dismissed or humiliated. Alaska Airlines used to stand out for its customer service, but lately the quality has declined. Incidents like this--where a manager has to repeatedly intervene to correct staff--make me seriously question my loyalty. read more

I would not recommend flying with Alaska Airlines. Their customer service has significantly declined. On our most recent flight, our seats were changed at the last minute to accommodate a couple traveling with a cat. This change was not announced publicly--instead, we were informed as we were lining up to board. When we tried to get assistance, one staff member told us she didn't handle seat changes and left us waiting. The agent who made the change had already printed the slip but made us wait another 20 minutes before handing it over--rudely. We were initially told we'd be seated together, but the new seats were separate. It's disappointing that Hawaiian Airlines has handed over its San Diego flights to Alaska. Despite our tickets stating we would receive a meal, none was offered. The restrooms were filthy, and the flight attendants seemed disengaged and indifferent to passengers. Based on this experience, I will not fly Alaska Airlines again. They've fallen far short of even basic expectations. read more

Alaska Airlines at San Diego airport 7/10/26 friday early morning flight cancelled, changed to 1pm 7/12/26 sunday a flight at gate (before us?) was moved far away, then recalled back to our gate, and instead had us moved to far off gate, several flight delays, 2 or more then we actually got on the airplane and got on the runway and waited for an hour and then they turned around and brought us back to the gate, saying they can't leave after 1130pm in san diego Then I called customer service and it's 1.5 hours on hold and emailed hotel voucher / ride / meal links did not work. they give me alternative phone # to call, it goes to the wrong dept, no prompt of where to direct the call , just automatically sent to wrong place they say "sorry our phone system is wonky" Flight scheduled for the next day 7/13 mon at 4:45 PM several calls to alaska before a person actually confirms i can have hotel/meal/rides reimbursed "probably", there's limits but i "probably" could get fully reimbursed , but they don't pay tax fees at gate an hour before boarding , gate is hidden around corner, TVs near gate don't give any info im noticing i can't understand anything said over intercom, talking super fast and overly bass sounding ("waa waa waa" like charlie brown teacher) i walk up to gate and it says Las Vegas they said they announced it, now its a gate 20 light years away missed flight, even AFTER gate closed, no notifications/phone/app/site of new gate ... i even look it up and it shows old gate # i call and they free changed flight to 915pm said they didn't know why airport didn't notify me read more

I absolutely must say that all of my experiences on Alaska Airlines have been AWESOME. I first had my experience years ago when we went on a family trip to Hawaii. We recently booked a flight with Alaska Airlines from Dulles International Airport to San Diego. The recent issues with United Airlines caused me to look at other carriers, and I am so happy that Alaska Airlines was available to book. The experience on their app was great. They also had a great and easy app check in process for the flight. There is an opportunity to order food items in advance of your flight in the app. The flight crew was FANTASTIC. I absolutely appreciated their hospitality and service from baggage check in to onboard, to inflight, and landing. We had a lot of turbulence and the pilot was clearly heard and understood over the cabin speaker. The flight attendants were also clearly communicating all of the flight status and instructions. This was a game changer for me as we normally travel American, Southwest, and Delta. I avoid United at all costs. I will start to look for more Alaska Airlines flights moving forward. read more

This review is about customer service with Alaska Airlines. Last day in March and I'm getting e-mail congratulating me on using the points, but I didn't. On the e-mail it says - if you are not used it - change the password and the phone number to call for help. Actually thru the app I saw that my points went for 2 tickets one way from Bangkok to Japan scheduled on Easter Day in April. Next day, I was on a phone (usual, more than an hour wait, leave the phone number and call back). I still didn't get an explanation how crooks were able to hack my account, but service locked my account, it took 7 days to get my points back. Also I have to provide my ID - driving license & create a pass key to be able to use my account. So after I got my points back, I decided to book a flight to JFK and to use all of my points. But first time when I called, I had to call special number, so my account was unlocked for an hour, I was able to change my password, also a 2-step authentication (a secondary call to my cell with the code) was introduced on my account. So be careful there, and if your account is hacked, call Alaska Airlines customer service as soon as possible. read more

Absolutely the worst experience ever. So far flight has been delayed over 5hrs and gate has changed at least 3 times for myself. I've seen this airline change people's gate all morning. That would be the entire 5 hours I was delayed for my own flight. The only compensation that was offered was $12 meal voucher. You try your best not to get angry at the gate agents because it's truly not their fault but do better Alaska let's not tread into Spirit and Frontier territory. You used to highly rated read more

Seating is so cramped. You're basically a sardine. If they have open seats they won't let you spread out and require you to remain in your assigned seats. But allow specific people to change seats no problem - discriminatory. Never use these guys. Not worth spending the money to fly with them. 5-6 hour flights have 0 entertainment. No movies. Barely a WiFi that functions. Seems like they're still stuck in the 2000s for quality amenities. read more

The ONLY reason I have used alaska airlines is because defense travel system requires it. I havebt been on a flight that departed on time yet. This morning, at boarding time our departure gate was swapped with a flight leaving for portland. The desk agent said it was so the people going to portland wouldnt have to rebook. Guess what? When i got to the new gate, the status monitor changed from seattle to san jose, and we all got delay notifications of our flight leaving 4 and a half hours later. The desk agent announced that our plane had maintenance issues and would now depart from another gate. 2 hours later, another delay. And a 12 dollar food voucher. Thatll buy you a bag of chips at the airport. Standing by for the next ridiculous, unacceptable delay. Note: update flight cancelled due to maintenance and rebooked. IF next flight leaves on time, will have waited at airport for 12 hours. I guarantee this was caused by the maintenance issue at one gate and not boarding at the other without making sure before switching. Stupid. read more

This is not my first time flying with Alaska Airlines, but it is my first review. When I lived in the Pacific Northwest, I flew Alaska more. I chose Alaska Airline to fly from San Diego to Orlando solely based on cheapest price and late departure. I thought if I left at 10 p.m. that I would sleep through the entire flight. I was wrong. First of all, San Diego airport is a busy airport. The airplane arrived on time but was waiting to be towed into the gate. It took a good 30 minutes. That delayed our boarding and departure. They loaded everyone quickly. I bought the Saver flight which meant I didn't have a seat until I arrived at the gate an hour before said departure. I managed to get the exit aisle seat which has more leg room but does not recline! However, there wasn't anyone in the middle seat, so that is a win. I didn't manage to sleep and I dint know that I can blame it on the upright seat. The noise woke me up several times. The stewardess came by 2 times to offer drinks which is nice but it would be nice to sleep. The drink selections were great. They even have true Leno packets for your water. I like that they don't use tap water. All in all, Alaska Airlines was a great airline to fly with. Everyone was courteous. read more
