Insights shared by verified travelers who flew the route from California to Portland 
TomFlew with Alaska AirlinesLAX-PDXFeb 2025
For me it was a connection from overseas to home. They were on time, which is about the best you get from most US airlines. Baggage came quickly.
Verified travelerFlew with Alaska AirlinesBUR-PDXNov 2024
Easy check in and less crowd. Short walk to boarding gate.
Verified travelerFlew with Alaska AirlinesLAX-PDXNov 2024
Leaver for the airport sooner especially during the holidays.
Verified travelerFlew with FrontierONT-PDXOct 2024
ONT by far the best airport in SoCal.
BrandonFlew with Alaska AirlinesSBP-PDXSep 2024
Airport is easy to navigate but not much food options.
Verified travelerFlew with Alaska AirlinesONT-PDXOct 2024
Portland is a big airport, give yourself time.
Verified travelerFlew with Alaska AirlinesLAX-PDXSep 2024
The "pay to pick your seat" policy stinks. It's even worse than "pay to pick a seat you'd want to sit in" that airlines have been doing for a while. There is no cohesive policy for how one *gets* a seat assignment- at LAX my boarding pass had a seat assignment; in Portland, the ticketing agent told me the gate agent "had" to do it, but the gate agent said it had been assigned the whole time even though my boarding pass had a blank space where the seat assignment should have been.

Bring a jacket! It is much cooler in the Pacific Northwest than southern California!

Don’t hesitate to fly Alaska Airlines I love them!

Alaska. Need more tips on TSA regulations. They are different at each airport.

Cheap flight but you get what you pay for
NancyFlew with Alaska AirlinesSTS-PDXJun 2024
I wish I’d known to book the flight first, then the car, then the hotel. I ended up doing it separately and kept getting prompts to book the next thing when I had already done it. I was hoping for a simple ABC & done: flight, parking, hotel, car, done. I did not find the process that simple. Maybe too many choices?
CormacFlew with Alaska AirlinesSMF-PDXAug 2024
Just a heads up that it’s an old aircraft with two-seated rows and reduced overhead space
SeleneFlew with Spirit AirlinesLAX-PDXJul 2024
Alaska was fantastic! Spirit's reputation for being horrible couldn't be more accurate. I'll never fly spirit again.
Verified travelerFlew with Alaska AirlinesSNA-PDXApr 2024
If you’re going to Disney, get a pass for EVE to request a direct pickup from the airport to your hotel. There are instructions for how to download the app and buy your pass on signs in the taxi area.
Verified travelerFlew with Alaska AirlinesSTS-PDXMay 2024
If you fly in the afternoon, get seats n the right side of the plan because the glare of the sun is pretty bad
Verified travelerFlew with Alaska AirlinesSNA-PDXDec 2023
The further you are into the calendar year you are more likely to have schedule changes due to the local noise restrictions
