Boeing, when one door closes, another Opens
LOL!
TOP TIER COMMENT
LOL. Thanks for that comment. SNL should use you for a writer.
as Larry the Cable Guy says..."I don't care who you are, that there is funny"
I love you
“Now we’re so proud to say that’s our second worst flight” 😂😂😂😂😂😂
I guess they forgot about Flight 261, crashed into the Pacific Ocean in 2000. After that, I started getting panic attacks when flying, that's probably why I remember it.
@@L.Spencer That is a dose of realism. I’m sorry for your trauma.
@@L.Spencer is that the one that flew upside-down at the end because the aft stabilizer broke lose and was free to just move wherever?
I don't know if it flew upside down. I'm reading about it on Wikipedia, but it's too stressful. I think that's the same flight, though. Very sad. @@bobbyfeet2240
When Keenan said “And in 10 minutes, probably there” with that smile on his face I lost it😂
Bowen's, '... it was $50!', did me in, too.
😂
The thick safety manual is what also took me out 🤣🤣
Kenan*
Keenan's still with SNL? He's got to be the longest member ever.
You laugh very easily and that’s usually not a good trait
LOL at a hidden joke. If you didn’t know, that Alaska Airlines safety manual cover is literally slapped onto the front of a McMaster-Carr catalog, the bible for getting industrial supplies in an emergency, including a particularly large selection of bolts. So somebody in the SNL set dressing department had a wicked sense of humor. I see you, I appreciate you.
Slightly wrong. I use McMaster-Carr regularly, you don't use them in an "emergency" You might be thinking Grainger.
@@kendallevans4079 McMC deliver same day in much of Cali and have an inventory >5 x of a Home Depot , so yeah emergency use is very common.
@@tedmich Home Depot? We are living on different planets. Sorry
...or they just had a fat book lying around and used it as a prop?
Incorrect
"Still better than Spirit" SCREAMING HAHA
SNL never misses a chance to bash Spirit haha.
heard the same joke on jimmy fallon show
Yeah, but with Spirit, you would've had the subway-style standing hanger straps to grab onto... ;-P
Alaska ✈️ needs that slogan! I flew Spirit Air in 2022. 1 of the worst travel problems MCO-BNA 🧳. Going in was awful. Trying to leave was a nightmare 😵💫. Tip- if you plan to fly 🛩 holidays or winter: get travel insurance! 📑
@@DavidLLambertmobileI'd rather bike across the country than fly spirit ever again.
I’ve lived in Alaska my entire life and seeing this is both hilarious and concerning due to the fact I can ONLY fly on Alaskan airlines 🤣
No need to be concerned. The airline genuinely has great safety practices and well-trained pilots.
Oh no! 😂😭
Hey, you didn't die and you got a cool story!
Yeah, i would rather ride a 50 year old ferry to get out of ak
@@anthonyrice9014 Yeah, the safety profile of those ferries is quite awful if you’re concerned about comparable risk. Especially the ones in service now, like the Tusty have been running long past their intended time and have countless maintenance issues
"You didn’t die & you got a cool story"
That should be Boeing's new slogan at this point.
😊😅
Say what you want about Boeing but they don't do boring.
'cept for all the dying. :/
Yeah, weird that people are blaming the airline for something that’s Boeings fault
As a former crew on a different airline I would say the same thing.: “Well, we didn’t Kill you.”
"You know those bolts that, like, hold the plane together? We're gonna go ahead and tighten some of those." Somebody help me up off the floor! 🤣🤣🤣
The entire disaster is going to be laid at Boeing's feet. I read a rant by a Boeing Engineer and he explained exactly how the company has been taken over by MBAs with Finance degrees and forced out or silenced all the engineers at corporate who argued their corner cutting to increase profits would eventually lead to shit like this. Well, the engineers weren't wrong.
Taken over by wokesheviks.
Once upon a time in 1996, when McDonnell Douglas was taken over by Boeing--at the entire Boeing culture oddly changed to MD's way of thinking--that was the point in time when $$$ was more important than engineering
My uncle was a pilot for Alaska and a few years back when gas prices shot up they started rationing the fuel they could have onboard, to the point that my uncle explained they wouldn't have enough if there was an emergency re-route. It gave him so much anxiety he went into early retirement. Definitely something Alaska wouldn't want passengers to know
@@katek4275
The pilot in command always has final say. I don't know a single airline captain who would leave with an amount of fuel they were not comfortable with.
If your uncle suffered with anxiety, he probably retired for medical reasons because you can't hold a first class medical with anxiety disorders.
@@A.J.1656 he retired because he didn't have a say. If he did he would have just requested more fuel. I respect that that's what you know, but it's not the reality my uncle described to me
Alaska has one of the best safety records. This is a Boeing issue, especially with the 737 Max.
Except that flight from Mexico
It's actually not. Boeing ships with the opening as it is an area some airlines use as an emergency exit. It's on Alaska because they finalize the installations and install the door plug. This practice has been around for decades.
Correct, but what you don't hear about is that there where 3 warnings that the crew knew about. They were instructed to not fly over water...........what does that say about safety with Ak Airlines?@@TheDraconiuslives
Ships with the opening?
What, do you think they mail the disassembled aircraft to the respective airlines in boxes?
That plug is most certainly installed at Boeing.
You can't ferry an aircraft with an empty hole in the side.
If the airline chooses to replace the plug with a door, they can do that later, but the plug most certainly WAS factory installed. @@TheDraconiuslives
@@JimsEquipmentShed this ^
What's sad it Alaska is getting all the flack and damage when this is actually a BOEING ISSUE
Alaska Airlines Knew of the Issue and Postponed doing required safety updates and checks.
Alaska Air put lives at risk.
@@MajICReiki Not true at all. I bet you don't even know what that "issue" was. The NTSB has already debunked that idiotic statement that people like you keep making.
@@MajICReiki You really need to stop repeating what you heard others say, and actually fact-check your strongly held opinion. What you said is patently false.
@@erauprcwa Um that is true. They got repeated warnings about low pressure and even decided to take that particular aircraft out of serving Etops flights to Hawaii because of it. Not too mention that Alaska has a history of bad maintenance practices which led to one of their planes crashing into the Pacific off of California in 2000. Yes some people were forced to resign afterwards but clearly some of the same bad practices have remained. Yes Boeing deserves a huge part of the blame themselves but Alaska is far from innocent too.
@@svscared It's not a warning, it's a caution light. It doesn't tell you about "low pressure". It's a pressure controller. There's two auto functions functions and one manual. If one controller fails, it automatically goes to the second controller. Per the quick reference handbook, if required, you can go into manual function to manually control the pressure controller for the aircraft. This happening doesn't mean the airplane cannot fly. Do you not drive your car if you have a interior light go out? NO. Also, not every airplane can do ETOPS. I'm sure you don't even know the requirements for ETOPS. For example, a working APU is a requirement. If the airplane's APU doesn't work, it can still fly. It just won't be doing ETOPS flights. That doesn't mean the airplane isn't safe.
One incident isn't a "history" of bad maintenance from over 20 years ago.
How do I know all of this? I fly the airplane and know exactly the internal details within Alaska. Everything you've stated is inaccurate, false, and the NTSB has already disproven your claims.
This one is pure gold...right to the end! Even the subtle eye movement to the open space when his shirt gets ripped off makes it work to perfection!
That should have been a Boeing ad
Could you imagine being sued by Boeing? I wouldn't want to tackle that. I doubt SNL would either. Just playing it safe I assume.
This is just speculation, so I could be wrong, and probably am.
It was, in 1977
@hickoryhippie I'm sure it's happened in SNL's 49 year history, but without Googling it I can't remember hearing about anyone/any company actually suing them for a skit, so personally I feel like that's a rarity.
That said, I agree with op that being that I'm very surprised it wasn't a skit about Boeing
The fault lies with Boening. This sketch is unfair.
Or maybe Southwest Airlines
As someone who loves flying Alaska it’s heartening to see the whole comment section coming to support them ❤ also as someone who formerly worked for Boeing I can also support this is on Boeing for sure
A couple years ago, I would've defended them too. They've got great pilots (except maybe the mushroom king), their miles program was good, they had a great track record of leaving and arriving on time, and your bags went the same place you did and came out on the carousel quickly.
But lately, that miles program isn't so great.
And then I had 3 trips out of 4 where I had to file a bag claim. Luckily, 2 of those 3 were upon arriving back home. But one wasn't. Nothing like washing brand-new undies a few hours before I'm supposed to be at work, after flying all day long.
And there was a bit of disruption with the first round of MAX issues. All eggs in one basket -- ouch. That sucked, but we got through it. And then the engine thing (which.. sure... that's on that guy, not the airline), and then MORE issues with the MAX. And then cancelled flights due to weather, making a strained fleet spread even MORE thin.
On my last itinerary, I got ONE of SIX flights. The rest were cancelled. Nine hour hold times by phone. Text and web chat support _turned off._ I was successfully flown from my temporary stay to a different airport, where I had no accommodations, and no way home. Because of weather and downed planes, it was going to be TWO DAYS before I could get another flight. Which, compared to _some_ poor souls, actually wasn't bad!
Their solution: They had rebooked my itinerary from Portland (but I'm in Chicago!) to Seattle to Anchorage, and then I was expected to be _back_ in Chicago a few hours later (by teleportation, I guess?) to fly to San Francisco and then back to Portland, which would be my final destination. Except I don't live in Portland...
So I booked an alternate, same day flight on Delta. AK Air still had my luggage, though, so I tried to file a claim for it.... and was told that "Delta needs to do that, since they brought you to your final destination." The airline that I bought a brand-new ticket on -- since AK didn't have a reasonable alternative, and customer service was unobtanium -- is supposed to be responsible for luggage I never placed in their care? That's assanine. Delta's baggage service agreed with me. "Yeah.. we have nothing to do with this." I know, right?!
So, AFAIC, Alaska Airlines is on time-out until they can get their 💩 together. They _were_ a great airline. Now, they're a complete chaotic mess.
Pretty much no one is defending them, did comments change significantly from 3 days ago?
@@christophegroulx7816 Bro, we're defending Alaska, not Boeing. It's no fault of Alaska's.
@@timmystips3935 I know, what I'm saying is that I'm not seeing many Alaska defenders.
Fuck Alaska, shittiest airline in the country.
I was hoping SNL would cover this and they didn't disappoint.
How? They took aim at Alaska and the passengers' terror when Boeing was at fault.
@@mutley66 like Trump saying that companies should be careful while doing business with him (the "this is not true so do your own homework before taking our facts and figures as true" clause), the buck and responsibility stops with Alaska and their maintenance crew prior to taking delivery. And if you think that the FAA and other regulatory and oversight bodies should have done better regulating and overseeing the construction, then do not vote for people who choose to defund and want to eliminate regulators and regulations at every turn. And not only that,they let the airlines do their own regulating and auditing; that's like asking fox watching the hen house and not blaming the fox. Look into January 31, 2000 Flight 261 incident. It was MD craft and was attributed to their extended maintenance interval (potentially saving them money) but that was also approved by the FAA.
@@mutley66 it was good for a laugh. Hopefully most people realize that it was a problem with the plane's construction and not its maintenance.
@@SayAhhNice way to blame it on Trump 🤣 Then you continue your idiocy by comparing a manufacture fail (that’s effecting United also) to an incident 25 years ago. You’re a special kind of stupid.
@@SayAhh As someone that lives in Boeing's back yard, you are spot on. The short cuts that Boeing takes and tries to take all in the name of providing more money for their board of directors is nothing short of criminal. You probably don't read the Seattle Times so you don't know the half of it.
As an Alaskan who has faithfully flown on Alaskan Airlines since 1989 and just returned from Mexico on Alaska. I can say Alaska is definitely better than Spirit and most other airlines. I'll be keeping my travel with our airline, they treat Alaskans well. Although this was pretty funny.
Lmao you’re hilarious. Alaska is the worst airline in the country.
Obama and Joe say support more black and women engineers!!! Diversity makes quality.
Everything is better than Spirit. I once stood at their desk and boldly declared that Spirit had no soul! I thought I would at least get a chuckle. Nope. Just saw some eyes rolling.
@@jazzyg530 Spirit won’t get you killed like Alaska.
@@johnyoung2997nowhere close. Spirit and United are unbearable
You didn’t die and you got a cool story. Thanks SNL for continuing to bring humor to the messed up reality of ghe world
They've been doing it since the alleged "good old days" of the 1970s...and 80s...and 90s...and 2000s...and maybe the 2010s, but most will claim that's when society began crumbling.
but the best part was the end, "Were still better then Spirit". It's so TRUE :)
They should make this a ride at Universal Studios LOL
Even better, at the Evergreen Aviation Museum in McMinnville, OR, about 30-40 miles from the incident here in Portland. There's enough land, they could do it, although the buildings are pretty full inside. They're housing the Spruce Goose (even have the cockpit open for tours now) and a separate building is the Wings & Waves Water Park, where you can start the water slides in a real-life retired 747 on top of the building.
Dismukes getting his shirt sucked off had me dying 😂😂.
Same. Highlight of the skit
His facial expression 😅
So who else is a thirsty gay who absolutely would? 🤪
He's a cutie!!!
i feel like they're just looking for excuses to get him shirtless at this point lol
This skit is actually funny. The SNL cast has such a short time to come up with these skits with only about a day to rehearse, so one needs to give them credit.
Boeing deserves a writing credit.
Why did they have less time than usual to prepare for this episode?
@@winxclubstellamusa because it just happened.
@@scottread2979 About 3 weeks ago now
@@HeidiKohne I guess I misread something.
It's funny until you realize how many other airlines also use Boeing 737-9 MAX and how much Boeing itself has valued profit over their workers and quality for years.
THIS
@@me-bc5boyep! it’s incredible that incident happened on a two month old aircraft.
Follow the money. ALWAYS follow the money.
Pure luck, they are lucky it didn't fall off during the ferry flight.@@MrJones-918
This was so terrifically acted and, the true story being so incredible, none of the many jokes seemed over the top or hyped or silly, all just genuinely funny!
Taking off with the inflatable slide already deployed took me out 😂💀
I totally lost it on that one.... glad I wasn't drinking anything at that moment or it would've ended up on my computer monitor...
Fr 😂
It'll take the left turbines out too!
I love the sound it made flapping in the wind😂
It looked so Real ! LOL !
The commemorative photo had me rolling!! 😆🤣😂
alaska is my fav domestic carrier… a door torn off and i’ll still choose it over american 😭😭😭
I completely agree.
Yep, Alaska or Delta whenever I can
True, American sucks.
They've always been my choice. Before that it was Western (free champagne - well, swill, but it was free).
They are terrible
They did a fantastic job on this skit. The safety manual, the emergency slide, and the screaming part were done beautifully
“On other planes you can watch movies, but on our planes you can be in the movie” 😉
Sent meeeeee
#DEAD 😂😂😂
With the shot of a Dad hugging a chair for dear life to avoid getting sucked out the plane😂
This took me out... Right out of the plane 😂💀💀💀💀
It got me thinking of that new movie on Netflix about the plane crash in the Andes
The photo..."I survived Alaska flight 1282!" I have a splash mountain ride photo from Disneyland that looks the same....I DIED laughing.
Lol, I forgot the mushroom guy was on Alaska as well 😂
Except he wasn't.
@@A.J.1656 Yes. It was an off-duty Alaska Airlines pilot who tried to turn off the engines mid-flight.
To clarify, the guy worked for Alaska but was on a Horizon flight. Horizon is a regional airline that currently is owned by Alaska, so...both answers are kind of true.
@@A.J.1656read much?
Don't forget about the ground crew guy that stole a plane, flew it in circles for hours and then crashed it into the ground.
"Are we in Clevland?" "Close the Pacific Ocean"'. LMFAO!!
The commemorative photo for "just $50" was brilliant.
I appreciate how this hilarious SNL Alaska Airlines ad spoof manages to be upbeat, sincere, matter-of-fact, understated, absurdly over-the-top, and strangely close to believable PR and marketing spins -- all at the same time -- and all in a charmingly positive way. Hey, when life gives you lemons... 🙂
WHEN THEY BROUGHT SULLY OUT I LOST IT LOL
He's a lot older now
Saaaaaame
Lady screaming on the top of her lungs at 00:35 seconds had me laughing. 😅
As an Alaska airlines FA, can confirm this is hilarious 🤣
You should get hazard pay.
😆@@lamarravery4094
Thank you for your service Jessica. I fly Alaska all the time. No airline treats its customers better.
@@markmh835 When they don't kill them you mean? Because Alaska was also the airline that flew upside down before crashing into the ocean. The one the movie Flight was based off of, except in the real incident everyone died.
@@sandpiperr -- I wasn't on that flight. Obviously.
Holy cow, I was not expecting that line about magic mushrooms to be referring to a real incident, but it actually happened...
Both planes landed in Portland, OR too.
Pretty recent too
It’s unfortunate, but the FAA doesn’t really have a way for pilots to get much needed mental health care. If they get any kind of diagnosis like depression, it’s grounds for losing their FAA medical certificate, in turn their ability to fly planes and their jobs. It takes them years and thousands of dollars to fight to get it back. The industry needs to change. The poor pilot at the center of it had been having a difficult time coping with the loss of his close friend. I believe he used the shrooms as a form of self-medicating to try to deal with the loss. He was off-duty and showed no signs of being intoxicated when he boarded the flight.
He was riding in the jumpseat. He wasn’t flying.
@@bobbibaker5877 And so did the door that blew off the plane! It landed in the yard of a science teacher at a local school.
yall i lost my shit when the plane took off with the slide pre deployed 😂
"And now we're proud to say that's our second worst flight" 🤣
Third worst, really. My instant reaction was, "You forgot about 261." Maybe they figured that one was off limits.
"Close. The Pacific Ocean." Still better than being in Cleveland. 😆
and its water doesn't catch on fire
I was thinking, 'Close? when did they move Cleveland?'
At least it's not Detroit
The crazy thing is Alaska is a great airline! I'd fly them with a missing door over United any day of the week...
I agree completely. This video is completely misinformed.
@@kevindong4455 You know it's a parody that isn't meant to be taken seriously right? They make fun of Spirit all of the time even though those jokes are greatly exaggerated as well. For real though Alaska sucks.
@@svscaredwhy do they need to include the company’s name?? One of Alaskas competitors 100% paid them to make this.
@@svscared actually when it comes to people’s lives at risk it’s not funny at all. May be to u but not for the rest of us.
Keenan’s part of the emergency exit there, there and in a couple if mins there 😂😂😂😂😂😂 LOLed hard
"Still better than Spirit" Hahaha 🤣 so true...
Still better than RyanAir too 🤣🤣🤣
"You didn't die & you got a cool story." 😂😂😂👏👏👏
This is HYSTERICAL. And I am both a flight attendant and an actor and I appreciate having a laugh about this; look, it's a satire. We deserve to be roasted -- obviously, no one is laughing at how traumatizing this was for the crew, passengers, and how much worse it could have been. Mostly, I am happy people (especially my former Emirates cabin crew colleagues) now know it is AlaskA (not Alaskan).
The true discussion in the media after this should be about the corporate greed at Boeing and all the whistleblowers that have come out about the safety culture there. I hope the media and public keeps the pressure on Boeing. This could have happened to United Airlines first, but it just so happened to be on AS. Sadly, lots of problems with this MAX aircraft, confidence in this plane seems to be minimal at this point. Boeing has a long road ahead of them.
We decided to tighten some of those bolts 😂
My fav line too, that line was delivered very well, very funny
I mean shouldn't boeing take all the flak for that lol a person driving a car should expect all bolts are tight and shouldn't get the blame on there driving record if their door or transmission falls off it should be the manufacturer.......especially when it's only 3 months old lol the plane didn't even make it to its 6 month check up
all the while Alaska remains one of the best domestic airlines. this is actually on Boeing and even more specifically Spirit Aerosystems who assembled the fuselage frame. Alaska just happened to be operating the plane 😭
Not the safety card the size of War and Peace 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
😂”Alaska, you’re in the movie .🎥 “
I howled out loud at the inflight picture!
I truly believe the collective good karma of all the good people that work for Alaska Airlines saved this flight from becoming a tragedy. It is extraordinary how the plane landed without losing anybody. During my last flight with them I expressed my sincere appreciation for their great customer service. This is Boeing's fault for not doing their job and putting people's lives and Alaska Airlines at risk.
Yeah it's definitely not KARMA... Skilled flight crew, appropriate response, the fact that seat belts were still fastened and a decent bit of luck could all be thrown in there, but karma ain't gonna be the one.
I fly weekly and yes Alaska has the best pilots but also the absolute worst flight attendants.
Just because Boeing sucks lately doesn't mean that Alaska doesn't. They have done some very shady things as well.
@@Motor-Boat like the pilot that took mushrooms and tried to kill everybody? Top notch 🤣
@@matthewgregory2794industry wide problem and not within Alaska’s control. He flew for their regional carrier, which has a lower threshold
The funny sketch of the night watching the plane take off with the escape sides already inflated was hilarious.
“Still Better Than Spirit”
No joke there
"We're gonna go ahead and tighten some of those"
But not all of them.
The "still better than spirit" part was sadly true. Haha
If they said "still better than RyanAir", then that would be more hilarious NGL 😂😂😂
Super funny bit. I haven't really flown a lot, maybe 15 or 20 separate flights in my entire life, but Alaska Airlines seemed to do a better job than all the other airlines I've used. Planes were always cleaner and newer.
Alaska is the best
Just need to work on keeping the planes together. Then they'd have it.
New planes, yep. The one that the door ripped off was 10 weeks old. What good is cleaner and newer if you get sucked out of the plane? They were lucky this time... this shit doesn't happen even on Spirit.
Most of these comments show that most people don't have Boeing makes the planes and the root cause of the problem is on them since it was a QA/QC failure.
Alaska is at fault too due to ignoring the cabin pressure fault warning. Still there is no reason to believe that this could not have happened with any other airline that files the Boeing 737 Max 9.
@@OneOfEightBillionThere was never a pressure fault. The media kinda threw this out there in a misleading way without having the information and the NTSB quickly came out and disproved it. It was a caution light that illuminated for the primary controller of the auto-pressurization system. There was never a pressurization problem with the plane and not what that caution light means. Because the light that went on is for a triple redundant system, the airline was able to safely move to the secondary auto pressurization controller without any incidents. The secondary system worked fine and the plane pressurized fine. They did exactly what the aircraft’s MEL states. Because there are two automatic systems and a backup manual system, the plane can by flown safely with only one automatic system (since all 3 do the same thing)
As an Alaska Airlines employee, this is hilarious.
the ride photo ala Disney World 😂😂😂
I kept it together until the photo op part. 😅🤣
God so true.
And it's overpriced too
The plane taking off with the slides out killed me 😂😂
As they say, "it's not about about the destination, it's about the journey."
Alaska was also the airline where a rogue employee hijacked an aircraft and flew it upside down around Seattle and then crashed it into an island.
Absolutely hilarious.
Gallows humor. We need it to get through the maze of life.
I'm sure that I'd have screamed my head off too.
Yet, Alaska Airlines is still my choice.
Now that is the right attitude.
“ are we in Cleveland?”
‘ “ close……..The Pacific Ocean.”
😂😝
On Others Airlines , you Can Watch Movies , BUT on Alaska , You're in the movie.
Hello netflix 😂😂😂
😂😅😂!! I was a Flight Attendant 20 some years for Alaska Airlines..laughing so hard I think I had a little accident!! O-Well it happens! It's ALL still worth it!! Miss you Alaska Family!
“Alaska airlines, still better than spirit” THAT SHOUDLVE BEEN THE Slogan
Nah the Slogan should be "Alaska airlines, still better than Spirit and RyanAir"
😂this one has me off the hinges 😂😂thanks Alaska.
This was so funny and the production quality is chef's kiss omg
HYSTERICAL!!! And 100% accurate!!! My flight to LA was canceled and I'm on hold with Alaska customer service as we speak (4 hours waiting so far...). *Still better than Spirit*
Living on the west coast, I’ve taken Alaskan a bunch of times. They’re great. On time, nice planes, and super friendly. They give a warm cookie as the snack. Top 2 right now with United for overall great services and good prices.
Yup, it was our go-to airline growing up, flying from Seattle to visit family in San Francisco regularly.
"We'll now be taking off with the inflatable slide already deployed" proceeds to show the plane taking off with the inflatable deployed🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 and then hiring Sully...that was genius!
As someone from Alaska who regularly takes Alaska Airlines we’re still a better airline than Spirit and a few others and at least we’re getting some recognition for it 😂
Best company ever to work for too..but this was hilarious 😂✌️
🎯🎯🎯🎯🎯‼️‼️‼️
Who's we?
You part of the management team?
I'm still choosing Alaska
Whoa, has Spirit lost a few parts that I haven't heard about? Any Spirit pilots try to turn off crucial equipment lately?
As airline service goes, yeah, Spirit sucks. I don't fly them because they nickel-and-dime you - they'd probably get your credit card # before providing an oxygen mask. And Alaska's food IS way better. (Unless your din-din gets sucked out the door plug that wasn't bolted down, or some wackadoodle pilot decides to turn off something essential, sending your dinner up the aisle towards the tail.)
Boeing deserves most of the blame, but Alaska's had some serious problems too.
I would say that was the worst Alaskan Airlines flight was the one that crashed into the Pacific in 2000. They based the Denzel Washington movie "Flight" on that.
88 people died on Flight 261 January 31st 2000.
That was absolutely tragic.@@paigestockley9111
I work for Alaska this made my coworkers laugh 😂
Everyone knows it was Alaska’s crew that kept people safe for the landing.
Tighten y'alls bolts!
Alaska Airlines…. For the same price you just get more! 😂
0:42 this should’ve been an ad for the movie Final Destination 😂😂😂
And it wasn't so long ago, that an Alaska Airlines flight crashed when the horizontal stabilizer failed due to cut-rate maintenance.
I like how they got our uniforms, slightly on point haha
That's the best SNL thing they have done in years! Love it!!
Door bolts will cost ya an upgrade fee.
Now that is funny. Good one.
I recently flew Alaska in May and YES I liked it much more than Spirit 😂
The best skits usually are the ones that are pre-recorded, like this here.
And Weekend Update. Don't forget Weekend Update.
Saturday Not Live
@@fishheds LOL, yes... I think we would be better off that way, too!
@@fishhedsOr they can call it Saturday Night, like they did in the 1970s when another show called Saturday Night Live was on (this one had Howard Cosell as a host).
Alaska Scarelines - 8 frights a day!
It’s still one of the best airlines out there tho
"Are we in Cleaveland?"
"Close. The Pacific Ocean."
That had me laughing. As a resident of Newport, Oregon, right on the Pacific, it always amazes me when I get someone from Ohio or Wyoming who's never seen a body of water that just stretches from horizon to horizon.
Then they stand there and stare like I'm insane when I tell them that while yes, I live next to the beach... I have not physically set foot on the beach itself in like 5 or 6 years.
“Close! The Pacific Ocean.”
“You didn’t die and you get a cool story..”
So if the slogan fails to keep you alive…. Does that mean it’s false advertisement? 😂
Didn’t we all have the awesome uncle with the no door Jeep? How amazing was that?
"Alaska, still better then Spirit" lol!
00:39 Bloody hell not the Aloha 243 reference 💀💀
Funny, but where's the shade for Boeing? Do Lorne Michales and Dave Calhoun know each other? Next time make one just about the 737 MAX: hidden MCAS computer system that crashes two planes: check, rudder bolts coming undone: check, plug doors blown out: check
Instructions not in pilot manual, including what took down those 2 jets occurs & the fact that the cockpit door flies open when the cabin is depressurized. Facts.
I work for alaska and this was funny......no mention of boeing or that the plane was just 3 months old but whatever it was still funny
"You didn't die, and you got a cool story."
Rumor has it that this was also said to the Apollo 13 crew after they landed!
"Still better than Spirit" This is what I will think after having a bad day. 🤣.
"You didn't die, and you got a cool story." 👍
This is also the same airline where a maintenance worker stole a plane and decided to do a barrel roll over the Olympic peninsula.....
Decades of cutting all costs but executive compensation crashing down on Boing Boing.
Terrible incompetence at the top levels.
I still choose Alaska. I always have a good experience.
The door plug fell down on my neighbors backyard. Crazy! We coulda died if we hadn't postponed our weekly neighborhood bocce ball tournament.
So crazy, that could have killed someone so horribly in so many places it could have landed. Have wondered what it was like for the people who live where it had landed in the backyard. Seriously for real, you normally play bocce ball in that yard with neighbors? Glad no one was there that day.
Hard to laugh at this because really I feel sorry for Alaska Airlines because it isn't like they could have done something about the incident. It was a brand new plane they got from Boeing on October 2023. I wish they had gone after Boeing. Boeing took responsibility for the incident. The pilots did a good job getting the plane down and nobody died.
As an Alaskan I approve this message.
