I appreciated the ability to choose between multiple flights both into and out of Portland from Burbank on the same day, so we were able to attend an event and return without spending the night. I am unable to appreciate what Alaska Air calls "streamlining" the checkin/boarding process at Burbank Airport. If you have a smartphone and the Alaska Air app, it is probably fine, but removing the option of using onsite kiosks to print boarding passes does not meet my definition of "streamlined". I also found it challenging that both Portland and Burbank airports required the plane to sit on the runway for some time due to lack of an open gate at which to disembark. It would not be so bad if we could at least remove our seat belts and move a little bit while we waited, but that is not an option. I honestly don't know whether this is because of how Alaska Air operates, or just the circumstances of the particular day and airports we were using, but I normally do not experience these kinds of delays to reach a gate using Southwest Air.

This flight was significantly affected by poor wifi connections. I couldn’t get my work done because the wifi kept dropping. Even texts were not going through. There is no seat power in premium class either. I fly a lot. Today was my 10th flight in 4 weeks. This was by far the only flight that was sub par.
4 out of 4 flights cancelled or delayed. 5th trip with similar experience
WiFi connection bad. Food is really awful. Crew very nice and efficient
Friendly and on time Would have appreciated if they’d been able to help with seats etc on our other onward flights with British Airlines
staff are repeatedly appreciative of your patronage. flights were on time. One ticket counter staffer in Vancouver was very helpful in all ways.
The worker @ security threw my Beach Stones in the garbage. On the plane, staff was helpful & nice.
It was really nice as always and i enjoyed the flight this time around wasn't as much turbulence.
Easy birding. Comfortable ride. Did not do food or entertainment
Nice friendly staff. Did not like being in the very last row on red eye.
Boarding, staff and flight great. A bit disappointed with no in flight online entertainment but I'll live. Landing was a bit of a jolt (more than usual) but hey everything else was smooth. LoL
I’ve been delayed for two days and I’m still stuck in Honolulu tired spending money
1.5 hours late departing YVR for a 14-minute flight. Packed waiting area. Full plane. Families with tired, screaming kids. 40-minute wait for baggage at YYJ. For a Dash-8. Obviously there was some kind of breakdown but there was no communication from anyone. Most of this was not WestJet's fault but it was an unpleasant night overall. I fell asleep in a chair waiting for the luggage carousel to start.
flight changed by airline. then could not check imto mew flight because kiwi had messed up the reservation. still waiting to depart…
Good. Really crowded and busy. Going to Winnipeg plane was crowded and seats very narrow Now I remember why I dislike flying 😈
Having a lot of delayed flights on West Jet, however things always work out. So no complaints.
Three hours on the tarmac before a four hour flight. I was hungry given the long wait, yet still had to pay for food service
I had planned to watch the Westjet entertainment for the entire flight however, because the seat mounted outlets in our row did not work.
Not a bad flight but our priority tagged luggage was the very last to come down the carousel.
The flight itself was good, the departure process was a little chaotic but once on the plane it was fine. The carry on luggage amounts is ridiculous. My husband’s suitcase was left behind in Kelowna. We could see it sitting there with our airtag. It was put on the next plane 6 hrs later but it was not delivered until the next afternoon. Unfortunately we had a business meeting Friday morning so he had no change of clothing for that.
