I was offered a selection of drinks and given a free snack. The flight was only a couple of hours, but we were trreated better than the transatlantic flight.

I was much more comfortable on this flight since it was not completely full. Again the complimentary food was inadequate for such a long flight. A tiny bag of mustard flavored pretzels and small drink . I'm glad I brought a few granola bars with me this time.

All went well from checking in Seattle till landing in New Orleans. The whole crew work well . The customer service is amazing . They are knowledgeable friendly and serviceable.

Typical domestic flight. No entertainment. You have to use your own devices and provided entertainment didn’t work. Pretzels and water of flight over 4 hours is unacceptable. Meals should be provided on long flights. But it’s about the money and not customer service. You should just issue the bag of pretzels at the gate and water bottle in seat and just do away with flight attendants because they do nothing on domestic flights

Crew was very friendly. Our bags showed up at the carousel within 20 minutes of arrival.

I will never take a red-eye flight again. Crying babies. Complete full flight. Could not get comfortable. Not fun.

All flight entertainment is from your own device and there was an $8 charge to connect. also 1 drink and a small bag of pretzels was all that was given to us. other that that the seats were good and the flight itself was as expected.

I appreciated Alaska Airlines very much, they are expanding traveling locations globally as they partnered with another company and am excited and looking forward to our next traveling adventure with this great Airline. Thank you kindly

Meh. It was the cheapest option, but not cheap for a mid-week flight. The flight staff were the most brisk and passive-aggressive I've seen on a flight in forever. We got to the destination alive though.

When I checked in a lovely woman full of cheer was able to move my seat to one more comfortable for my arthritic knees. So fuss, now extra charge to move me. Real customer service. She was a delight. And my flight was smooth
