One of the flight attendant was very rude and not helpful. The others were good. Also seats were dirty with food bags left on the seats. Looks like the plane wasn’t clean before we boarded.

Excellent, as always. Just a bit of comparison from the same routes. United has free blankets. Horrible terminal. EWR JetBlue. Updated terminal. EWR. Screens for each seat. Self service pantry and a lavatory in the middle of the plane. Alaska. Always has new planes neon lighting. Mood music for boarding and deplaning. No screens. Outlets yes. Offers water latter part of the flight. Which is nice. Excellent flight attendants. Customer service on phone or gates are always extra polite and friendly.

Quick, efficient, incredibly kind staff. It was a short flight (50 min)but still received beverage service. Treated my 5 year old like a star. Just endlessly appreciative.

Assigned flight was ok but I got too late to my destination

It was good. We left on time and arrived on time. The crew were pleasant and helpful. I plan to continue traveling on Alaska Airlines in the future.

I can't say yet as I'm still waiting for my luggage. I thought I had given my TSA # before my first flight but it wasn't on my boarding pass so my initial flying to my destination I wasn't able to utilize the device. I called Alaska Airlines and had it added to my profile. It still wasn't on my boarding pass so I had to go to an agent and have it added which took extra time as there was a line of people waiting to be helped.

Love Alaska planes. New. Used to have music while boarding. Neon lights. Excellent service. Always. But no screens. And weird reclining method.

Everything was good except for the child that cried most of the time/

Airline boarding experience could definitely go better, though that's not limited to Alaska Air. Couldn't get logged in to the plane wi-fi.

It was my first time, it went pretty well. We did experience some turbulence and wasn’t told anything. Over all everything was easy to get through.
