However, it’s important to keep in mind that Southwest does not fly directly between Los Angeles International Airport and Seattle–Tacoma International Airport, so you will have to have a layover.
  • Traveling to Seattle with your family? Make sure to bring the kids to Seattle–Tacoma International Airport’s play area located next to Gate A in the Central Terminal. This play area features a variety of games and activities that are a convenient way for kids to burn some energy after a day of traveling.
  • Before you travel through Seattle–Tacoma International Airport, make sure to check the airport’s live music calendar on their website. A variety of local bands and artists are continually playing throughout the different terminals, and their performances are free for all travelers to enjoy.
  • If you book your ticket with American Airlines, Virgin Atlantic, or Delta Airlines, make sure to see if you are eligible for free access their private lounges in Los Angeles International Airport. These lounges provide travelers with complimentary snacks, TV, and a comfortable place to relax while waiting for a flight to take off.

Pay extra for the carry on and we got to board 1st. I did not pay to sit together but when I checked in the day before we were all 3 together.

Overall good. Good communication from the captain on delay, cozy seats, nice staff, and a perfect landing.

I don't know what it is. But it seems that flights from Ontario to Seattle are always delayed. This one was delayed 3 hours. I guess I should just expect it from now on.

Lovely crew and organized. Flight landed early, even better. Seats could have been endowed with more like Room.

Display what groups are boarding on the monitor...was unclear unless you listened closely and continuously.

I am a novice flier, I had a 4 hr layover in Seattle, I check my email and my Alaska app often and there no notifications. When it got closer to boarding time no one was there. I went to the information booth and a wonderful woman named Rana told me the flight gate had been change. I had an anxiety moment, I had to take 3 trains to get to the other side of the terminal, which made me frozen with fear, thankfully Rana took me the whole way otherwise I would have never made it . I am disappointed there were no notifications on the app or online. But I can’t say enough about the Help Rana gave me. If there is any way she could be awarded an appreciation acknowledgment it should be done. Thank you

Connection in Seattle was almost a disaster. Departure gate was changed but Departure display was never updated. Quite a few people were waiting at the original gate and had to run to new gate after it was discovered online. Display never updated.

Instant upgrade to First Class based on my One World status. Better than AA.

I had to cancel my flight for health reasons. They gave 0 options to get my money back or credit me another flight. Makes no sense, but they are greedy

no entertainment which was ok with us. Great crew, great ascent, rockier landing, empty air lane so very comfortable. fun pilot

I feel that for the price that I paid, I should’ve received zone one boarding. Said I was zone two. And even though I paid for an upgraded seat, I was lucky to get a space for my carry-on baggage. So I think the value wasn’t there.

Delta was great the entertainment was outdated. Screen was very small and didn’t work.

The seats are uncomfortable, feels like a small seat pad on plywood.

My husband is very tall and we generally fly Delta Comfort. We used our companion benefit, and our seats were coach and extremely uncomfortable........ horrid even

I actually received a notification from kayak on email but not one by text from Delta when my departure gait changed and I almost missed my flight

My seat had no padding, it was literally plywood with a plastic cover. I could not change seats on my 10 hour flight. My excitement for this trip helped me deal with the pain.

I notice that every time I fly delta or any American carrier, the staff seem tired, overworked, and not at the service level I’m accustomed to in Asia. They frequently crash into my arm when coming down the aisle. Food is shoved at my face with no greeting or verbal cue. The food portions seemed much smaller than usual and didn’t see much wine or beverage options. This is comfort plus? The plane was old and tired. The bathroom was dripping with mineral stains after a long lack of cleaning. The power socket did not work, although the USB output did. I really wonder why I’m flying Delta, I think it’s time to switch to ANA.

The flight was great. The crew were a little terse about the size of my bag. It fit fine.

My seat was changed at the last minute and I was moved to the last row, right next to the bathroom despite selecting my seat well in advance. I was also made to check my carry on due to space but when I got on the plane there was significant empty overhead space. Picking up my carry on from the luggage carousel added time to my trip which had already been extended due to delay.

Screen didn’t play movies, do I was pretty boated the entire flight.

It was very cold because the air conditioner was on high power, and my son got sick.

Seats are smaller and harder than other airlines we have travels with. Food was edible but no good. The sandwich was the only thing I would eat again. They did have a lot of movies to watch.

Booked a united Air flight with option to pick seat , then found out was on an Air Canada flight with assigned seat , then they wanted a several dollar charge for some 25 cent value entertainment listening ear device

Seats are outdated. Entertainment relies on personal device. Boarding was delayed due to inaccurate passenger tracking, resulted in late arrival at Reno.

The crew and flight was amazing. I haven't flown United in years but plan to switch to you being my main airline

Quality of service and maintenance has declined since my last trip before COVID.

Flight delayed. They made no attempt to get our luggage to our connecting flight so I am without necessities after they begged me to check in my bag. Still dont have it.

Everything was fantastic. Modern plane. All the amenities! Although the paid snacks and meals are pure robbery. Like i understand airlines need to make money, but 11$ USD for an overnight oats with some nuts in it and barely any pieces of apple.... Highway robbery

when you can say you don't remember being at any point upset during a flight, the airline is winning .

Luggage management is poor, my missing luggage is still lingering.

Never happened, because of the first delayed flight I lost the connection and had to wait overnight and take two flights to reach my destination.

Crazy seating issues. We got seated far apart. Offered middle seats at a premium rate. Why is a middle seat now the expensive seat? Baffling.

Seats were very uncomfortable. I paid extra for a seat with more leg room, the seat was no different than a seat at the back of the plane. Flight attendant was rude.

The main problem was delay. The plane was at the gate early and bags were loaded. However, there was no crew for the flight. They were inbound from LGA and had to land and make their way to our gate. It took more than 40 minutes. Then, once the crew arrived and boarded, one of the crew members had to deplane and then a replacement crew member had to be found. It took another 40 minutes or so to get the final crew member. In all, we took off about 2 hours later than our scheduled departure time. Once in the air, the flight was great. Smooth most of the way. The crew was professional and efficient.

I did not enjoy continuously being lied to about the amount of time we would circle Chicago before deciding to redirect to Milwaukee. Then the amount of time we would sit on the ground in Milwaukee waiting for gas, or to take off again. Or the amount of time it would then take to get to Chicago again, or sit on the runway waiting for a gate. The whole time continuously hopefully we would make our connecting flight that kept getting delayed as well. Only to scramble and miss it. Enough with the BS. Tell me the truth. "Sorry, things are backed up and your probably not going to make your flight. You should rebook on the next flight now rather than wait." You'll never hear those words from an airline. Speaking of which. If the flight has been redirected and/or is seriously delayed, how about making the WiFi free for everyone so they get to rebooking and reserving hotel rooms while still in the air. You've inconvenienced me already and now you want me to pay $20 for Internet so I can try to make other plans. Absolutely disgusting!

WiFi was down so no entertainment and I could not work either. The flight was Very turbulent at the end (the last 20 min felt like an eternity) I appreciated the pilot for getting us there safely. The flight attending in first class was kind and attentive to everyone.

The A321(?) model of the flight for 5+hrs has no seat back screens. Getting the american airlines wifi experience to watch movies on your own devices is not the same.

The experience was great and much better than the flight going out. of course I was in first class but the service was excellent

Comfort of seats, ease of boarding. Food selection could be better

i suspect i caught flu on this flight as i could hear someone coughing a few rows back and ended up with flu a few days later. also tiresome to have to watch movies on my device by holding up smartphone screen, would have liked to have in seat display.

Food options were limited which is absolutely embarrassing for a Flight of this size The staff did not come around as much and I am not accustomed to such poor service from American Airlines Drinks I believe were limited to soda and water

Over 2 hour delay due to “weather” but all other flights were taking off with no issues. We felt lied to the entire time as well.

LA to Seattle was a smooth process. Seattle to LA was delayed more Than 6hrs

I could not print my boarding passes and had to see an agent. However, the agents were very friendly and helpful.

Check in was made easy with the ladies at the luggage. they were fast and so kind. You should pay them more.

Purchasing tickets on their website is upsetting, they take the consumer for a ride...I wanted 2 tickets for me and my friend but we only had one carry on between the two of us. It was impossible to only pay for one - I had to pay for 2 carry ons and blew $50! Shame on their sleazy business practices! The seats in the airplane are shockingly uncomfortable! In the future I will only fly Spirit if I have no other reasonably priced choice. The flight and the crew were good. But still: Go Southwest Airlines!!!

Terrible. Rude flight attendants. Uncomfortable seats. Nickel and dime every service. No in flight entertainment. First and last time to fly spirit.

Way better than I expected. The plane was so clean- the seats seemed brand new; although not super comfortable as they were lightly cushioned.. The crew helped me lift my bags up to the overhead bin which not many airlines do. I knew there would not be internet or food/snacks but you could buy some if you wanted .

Spirit airlines is very bad airline staff doesnt know how to treat passangers they didnt allow us in the flight we reached 45 minutes ago from flight departure but they denied nd said you are late Very disappointed i never reccomend spirit airlines

They charge you for everything. Even water. They accepted my dog as a service dog in my reservation. Then they asked for a DOT form that was impossible to provide. I had to pay $175 for my service to fly with me, that would protect me from death if I ate peanuts. They did not however, serve peanuts on the plane.

Traveling on Spirit Airlines was awful. It was by far the worst airline we ever traveled on. There is no food service at all unless you paid for it. Even a cuppa coffee or a water was $5 . I’ve never been in a seat so close to the one in front of me. There was literally 10-12 inches from my face to the seat back in front of me. We actually all had to laugh at the size of the tray table. Never see a tray table so small, and I don’t even see the point of it. By booking through Spirit, but after I paid for checked luggage, water, coffee, I would’ve been better off going with our usual airline where everything was included. It actually would’ve been cheaper and way more comfortable. We joked that we were actually surprised they didn’t give us tokens just to use the bathroom. My daughter even knows she would never travel on Spirit again, and she’s not high maintenance at all. Aweful
