"flight was delayed both ways"

(United States)

Trip Verified | I had round trip tickets from Portland to Vegas, my flight was delayed both ways. Flight to Vegas was delayed 4 hours. My flight to Portland was delayed an hour so the crew could sleep. I understand sleep but you would have thought they could have posted the delay the night prior so the passengers could sleep as well but nope. Ridiculous!

"first class customer service"

(United States)

Not Verified | On a business trip to Spokane, Washington, my return trip to Boise, Idaho was scheduled to leave at 12:30 in the afternoon. I arrived at the airport quite early and noticed they had an early flight at 9:00am. I asked the gate agent if I could switch my flight to the earlier one. The flight was light so they let me switch, at no cost, and they upgraded my economy seat to a first class seat, at no cost. This is what I call first class customer service. Good show Alaska Airlines!

"deeply unsatisfactory"

(United States)

Not Verified | Poor customer service and deceiving practices I recently had an extremely disappointing experience with Alaska Airlines' phone customer service. The representatives seemed uninterested in assisting, frequently hanging up the call or leaving me on indefinite hold. This neglect is unacceptable, particularly when travelers are seeking crucial information. Furthermore, there were misleading communications about flight delays. I was informed that my flight couldn't depart due to weather issues, yet there were no apparent weather problems. It's troubling to suspect that this may be a tactic to mask the mechanical issues with their older aircraft fleet. The apparent strategy of avoiding compensation by falsely attributing delays to weather is deceptive and unacceptable. Customers deserve honesty and transparency, especially when it concerns their travel plans. I strongly advise travelers to reconsider flying with Alaska Airlines. Their lack of responsible customer service and questionable operational practices warrant scrutiny. In summary, my experience with Alaska Airlines was deeply unsatisfactory, marked by poor communication and suspect practices. I urge potential passengers to be cautious and consider other airlines for their travel needs.

"Messed up airline"

(United States)

Not Verified | Attempted to send my dog to Nashville, Alaska has canceled the flight twice, now they say I will need to spend another $200 on vet because the health certificate is only valid for 10 days. I will unfortunately be required to dyebib small claims to recover all of these vet costs that were required for the flights that were canceled. Do not rely on these idiots. The lady behind the counter just sat there grinning at me and refusing to speak to me. Messed up staff. Messed up airline. Avoid.

"agents who obviously care so much"

(United States)

Trip Verified |   Alaska Airlines has shown up for us in so many different ways on so many occasions that I felt I really just had to share how grateful I am to have such a quality airline up here. Thank you to the agents who obviously care so much.

“communication was sorely lacking”

(United States)

Trip Verified | I recently flew with Alaska Airlines from Seattle to San Francisco and was dismayed by a 3-hour delay. Not only did this disruption cause significant inconvenience, but the communication from the airline was also sorely lacking, leaving passengers confused and frustrated. As a result of this experience, I'll try avoiding my future flights bookings from Alaska Airlines. If you want to have a reliable flight then I would recommend avoiding Alaska Airlines.

"Never encountered ruder gate workers"

(United States)

Not Verified | Never encountered ruder gate workers. They spoke to every customer like they were annoying children. I asked a question regarding my seat, I was asked to come back in an hour. When I returned an hour later the lady started to help me and the guy next to her screamed that he had already told me once to come back later. Which I had done. Uncomfortable and unnecessary. It’s not hard to talk to people nicely and give clear instructions. Saving grace is in flight outlets, wifi and cabin crew. Food is terrible.

"Our check-in bag was badly damaged"

(United States)

Not Verified | Our check-in bag was badly damaged. After documenting and filing a report, Alaska returned with an offer of $100. This is not enough to replace our current size bag let alone any hard case bag. I called them up and ask how am how suppose to replace my large hard luggage for $100, All they could say was that it was there policy that if you don't have a receipt of luggage purchase they only refund $100. Yet they couldn't show me where it says that on their policy. I was on another airline and they let me choose a replacement bag. I would really not recommend flying with them if you need to check your bag in!

"never book again with Alaska Airlines"

(Ireland)

Trip Verified | No business lounge or pay for it. Seats are terrible, no leg room 6 hrs sitting in a glorified armchair. Terrible food will never book again with Alaska Airlines.
