TRIP REPORT | Alaska Airlines - 737 800 - Seattle (SEA) to Anchorage (ANC) | First Class

  • Alaska Airlines has successfully paved its way into being one of the nation's largest air carriers. With their never-ending expansion in the lower-48, how does their service live up on a flight to the "Last Frontier". Ripping Native designs out of the aircraft interiors and pulling sponsorships from great Alaskan events such as the Iditarod are only a few examples of how they left Alaska behind in the snow.

    I flew Alaskan airlines a few times , but most memorably from SAN-SEA-ANCHORAGE . On the second leg, with the 737-8, the seat was very uncomfortable. I had reserved a window seat for (20$?)) , but my seat was missing a window!! Also, the recline on my seat and my travel companion seat was broken. The flight was only half full so I had moved one row forward (empty row) to a working seat and the flight attendant came out and asked to see my ticket (noticing i moved). She rudely demanded that I move back to my broken seat and barely let me explain that I couldn’t sit there for two hours.
    The only thing that made it worse was that on both legs, food wasn’t served besides this purchase able 10$ snack box. (I was allergic to the contents ). Since they were out of other options, at least on the first leg they offered me chips from first class for a “fee”.
    My connection was tight so I had no time, and I was being ignored by the FAs on the second leg, so I had to do with a water.
    I have to confess, the ticket price was only 230$ per person which was pretty good considering my tight schedule. I guess you get what you pay for, but I would’ve paid the 400$ per person to fly on delta . I’d choose to be fed onboard and seated on a functional seat rather than harassed and hungry.
    Thanks for sharing Quintin!! I respect the grind and the uploads ✊🏻

    Has Boeing added the Max-8 type winglets to all of their 737 fleet so that the 737 Max-8 will just blend in when re-certified to fly? I flew a 737-800 in January from Dallas to Colorado Springs and it didn't have the double winglet.

    • @andreworiez8920
      @andreworiez8920 4 года назад

      They added the winglets because they save even more on fuel costs... maybe just 1 or 2% but anyway they can squeeze more fuel efficiency lowers the costs.
