I recently flew Southwest from San Jose to Honolulu. I was very impressed with the flight crew, especially the flight attendant in charge of the front of the plane. She came through the aisle at least five times for drinks and water, and two times for snacks. I have not seen such service since I flew first class. Also, for the first time, they gave us the correct baggage claim number, and the luggage came out quickly. I can't wait for Southwest to have assigned seating! I absolutely hate the Cattle Call boarding procedure and the mad dash to get seats and overhead bins. However, the boarding was efficient.
We had a nice flight. Boarding was easy, our seats were comfortable and the on board service was pleasant.
Service was great, boarding and exiting went smoothly, and the flight was very pleasant.
Was as expected. Crowed planes. Too many carryons delaying takeoff. But the ride only took an hour and saved me a lot of time SFO is a not a great airport.

I used to fly SWA all the time. I know the crew has their little acts that are often fun, and entertaining. On this flight one of the crew was just not nice. Very surprising.
The plane arrived 25 minutes late, and the Wi-Fi was slower than it usually is.
Forget beverage, they didn't even have water for half the passangers?
Can not wait for seating change to reduce the amount of pre boards - it’s disheartening the abuse. And then then deplaning
If your boarding Military, it should be with ore board, and with my spouse, so rude and stupid to not let us board together and before a group. All the other airlines clearly understand Military courtesy, this is why I Rarely fly SWA and Always fly Alaska
The people were nice. I did not make my flight and they immediately gave me the next one out.
This is the first time I fly with Alaska and it was a great experience. No delays, friendly crew, arrived on time. It was just a two hour flight from Burbank to Portland.
Overall good. Good communication from the captain on delay, cozy seats, nice staff, and a perfect landing.
You need another option on certain questions - ones that not applicable.
Boarding was made fun by the gate attendant. He announced very clearly each board group and had some funny descriptions of each group. He played with the children, acting like he couldn't see them. Just a very welcome boarding process. Once on the plane, mother nature took over and we were locked in for about 45 minutes standing by for take off on the runway. Every plane has the same issue. Once in the air, the flight crew took very good care of us. Lots of communication with smiles.
The young boy in the seat in front of me was so excited to see me that I was touched. It was the highlight of my day.
Alaska is always good. Happy polite employees, great airlines. I can’t say that about some of the others !
Flight was initially delayed 1 hour, but said come to gate at scheduled time in case plane shows early. Then the flight was delayed several times over for a total of 3.5 hrs for 1.5hr flight. The only compensation was $12 to get a water and some chips. Cant seem to fly anymore without some issue.
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.
It was terrible, if they ran flights on time it would make a big difference.
Delta seems to be improving in many areas, except they are super bad with the food available. Bring back normal food service on long flights.
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
New boarding doesn't make sense. Filling front first is slow.
Delta flight was great from the check in all the way to arrival. However, I had a very bad experience. I requested a wheelchair and the wheelchair employee that went to pick me up from the plane in Boston to bring me to the baggage claims told me I have to pay him. I was under the impression that it was a free service and I usually give tips but the person forced me to pay and since I said no because I was upset with his demand when my daughter walked in to pick me up he demanded payment from my daughter who paid him thinking maybe now it is a charged service.
Horrible. Grateful to be alive but spent 13 hours at airport only to return back to my familys house and flight changed to next day. They tried to fix a part on plane, had no back up plane and after 10 hours , reattempted the flight and it STILL wasn't fixed. We got a meal voucher and rescheduled flight but there should be some other compensation for the 15 hours spent in airport
The Pilot was one of the best I've had, very informative about turbulence and got us to our destination early
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.
There was plenty of overhead room but half of the passengers were told they had to check their carryon bags. My partner and I checked in as early as possible and our seats were split across the aisle.
Flew first class so everything was great. But maybe because the flights were red eye, no meals were served, just chips. I flew Alaska Air 1st class at 9PM (2 hour flight) and they served beef short rib sliders!
