Airline reviews

They cancelled the 6am flight around 12:30 AM the day before. I was luckily able to book through another airline. I called for a one way fare refund, the new flight is much more expensive. I lost $$$ in the difference and this caused lots of stress. I intend to take action following my trip, really off to a bad start and I will never fly Alaskan again

NO ENTERTAINMENT OR WIFI OR FOOD. ONLY WATER TO DRINK AND SPICY PRESTLES TO TAL CHAEOS AT CHECKIN

My travel mate needed wheel chair assistance getting on and off, and it was excellent. Thank you!

The app booked me on a flight for July 1st as opposed to August 1st like it was supposed to be. No problem with Alaska Airlines, except they took a while to refund my money. But it was as taken instantly. So, yeah.

Part of the first class package is luggage. We checked our luggage in easily but our luggage should be one of the first bags off when we land. On both flights this was not the case. The lounge in Kauai is awful. Food and drinks were excellent on the flight. Service was attentive. On the flight over we arrived 45 minutes early. Like last time the same thing happened in a previous flight. The problem both times was waiting in the plane for 30 minutes so that a spot to unload could open.

There were 5 delays IN TOTAL there and back. And we got a $12 food voucher, RIDICULOUS. Will never fly Alaska again!

I am writing regarding my recent flight from La Paz (LAP) to Los Angeles (LAX). While I understand and respect the importance of airline safety procedures, I left this experience feeling deeply upset by the way I was treated by a member of your staff. At the gate, I was informed that my suitcase contained a charging unit that could not travel in its current form. My husband and I immediately complied with every instruction given to us, including opening the suitcase and removing the charging unit. We were ultimately told that we needed to break apart the charger in order to board the flight, which we did without argument. Afterward, I was directed to another employee. I calmly asked whether it had actually been necessary to break the charging unit in order to board, as I simply wanted to understand the policy. Rather than explaining, she responded aggressively, repeatedly asking, “Do you want to stay? Do you want to stay? Because this flight is leaving.” Following that interaction, I was instructed to reopen my suitcase, remove my shoes, and the employee asked my husband whether I had been drinking. I have been sober for seven years, and being questioned in that manner after simply asking a respectful question was humiliating and incredibly upsetting. I want to be very clear that I am not challenging Alaska Airlines’ safety policies. I fully support them and understand that employees have an important responsibility to keep passengers safe. My concern is solely with the manner in which I was treated. I felt intimidated rather than assisted, and what should have been the joyful end of a trip celebrating my marriage became an experience that left me in tears for much of the beginning of our flight home. I rarely submit complaints and generally try to extend grace to people working in stressful environments. However, this interaction fell far short of the level of professionalism I have come to expect from Alaska Airlines. I respectfully ask that this incident be reviewed with the employees involved so that future passengers are treated with dignity and respect, even during time-sensitive situations. Given the distress this experience caused and the lasting impact it had on what should have been a very special trip, I would also like to respectfully request that Alaska Airlines consider providing a refund or other appropriate goodwill compensation for this flight. While I understand this may not be standard policy, I hope you will take the circumstances into consideration. Thank you for taking the time to review my concerns. I look forward to your response.

The flight was on time, seats were comfortable, crew is friendly and professional. Nice flight overall. Thanks!

We showed up to our gate less than 15 minutes after boarding started and they wouldn’t let us in. It was still 15 minutes even before take off so we’re weren’t even late to the flight.

Gate personnel and flight crew were both very good. No problems other than the previous flight being late.

Friendly crew, but we were delayed for more than an hour and had to change planes due to maintenance issues.

Flight attendants had a little attitude. Food tastes no good.

Very poor. The flight was delayed from Toronto because some forget to do there job . I got to my connecting gate in San Francisco 10 minutes before the departure.but this didn’t let me board even though the flight was still there for an other 30 minutes. The the gentleman at the unite airline desk told me that they usually wait for passengers but air Canada called and told them not to we I been rerouted to Manila instead of Hong Kong . In San Francisco they mad me check in my carryon bag . I was told the it will directly go yo ho chi minn cuyt but I was told that by the Vietnams airline desk that’s not there I’m 10 hours behind my scheduled flight and looks like I I’m going without baggage. I don’t have a chance of catching ..

The food quality sucks. One must starve if they do not eat flesh Or wheat based products Some variety would be expected. The trivial amount of snacks and or food is inhumane

It was all good flight was on time, service was good I enjoyed a few movies and everything was smooth

Airbus plane, nice and polite staff, entertainment even as it was a short flight.

We tried to upgrade to economy premium but were told this was not possible as we had booked through United Airlines (and Air Canada was operating the flight). This seemed silly given there was ample space in economy premium. Additionally, we had to wait almost 1.5 hours upon arrival to taxi to the gate. Otherwise, the crew were very pleasant and passengers were friendly.

headphone jack didnt work for the first flight and not much variety

Connection coordination with Star Alliance partner could be better. Lots of check in setup was not interlinked between operators.

Marked by flight delays on all segments of the trip. Food in first class cabin was mediocre and overhead cabin storage was not adequate. Overall, the premium charge for first class cabin was poor and over hyped. This will be our last flight with UA.

not able to change flight, no customer service from KAYAK

Smooth ride but I wish they have better food selections.

Aircraft is designed with all 3 washrooms at the back of the plane, meaning that when there is service underway, there are no washrooms available and it gets very crowded at the back of the plane.

gave me complimentary food as the flight was not full and was attentive to my needs

The flight was smooth, the plane was spacious and clean, the staff was kind and the food was decent.

Flight crew was great, and even the crew for checking bags! I had a question for a friend of mine flying tomorrow and the man I talked to was awesome and answered my questions and looked up things for me when he didn’t have to! I was able to give her current & accurate info for her flight and she was so appreciative too!!

Crew at gate and onboard were just very OK, not very friendly and honestly seemed bothered to be there. I will give a shout out to still selling headphones for those who forgot.

Very disappointed with premier lounge. Food selection very poor, both coffee machines out of order. For the price you charge for an upgrade, the seats don’t fully recline, movie selection is old. Not very good value. Asian airlines are light years ahead at a more affordable price.

The flight was delayed, but not for weather. We landed over 3hrs later than planned.

The stag were helpful, kind and liked the passengers. The plane was pristinely clean! Great flight!
