When I made my transfer from my flight from Missoula to Seattle to Seattle to San Jose, the gate was at the opposite end of the airport, which I thought was inconvenient since there were so many gates for Alaska right where I landed that everything was good

When I made my transfer from my flight from Missoula to Seattle to Seattle to San Jose, the gate was at the opposite end of the airport, which I thought was inconvenient since there were so many gates for Alaska right where I landed that everything was good

the departure time was changed several times. At the end we were late 2 hours and 15 min. It was a poor experience

It was unexpected not to board with a jet bridge - the weather was good that day so it was not an issue. It was completely unclear what boarding group was called...there was no monitor with that info.

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.

Wifi in particular was terrible. I paid to use and could never connect. Unacceptable and put a drain on my plans.

Ground crew at SFO checking didn’t print my boarding passes for my second leg … creating a full mess at LAX So the desk asked for my passports, and was able to check in my luggage up to the final stop, they never realized that our journey was made up 2 legs.

First class food and service was excellent. When I booked the ticket my outbound was automatically upgraded to a non bulkhead aisle seat which was much appreciated. However, my return was not. By the time I upgraded only windows on the bulkhead were remaining. It would have been nice if my seat was automatically upgraded within the appropriate advance time window so I didn't have to worry about it. (Not a big deal)

Captain on the flight and the flight crew were great. The onboarding was terrible with delays of several hours. The baggage claim was a nightmare from SJC to SEA but very good on the way back from SEA to SJC. The luggage took almost 45 minutes on top of being stuck taxiying for an hour after landing from SJC to SEA. Terrible experience from SJC to SEA. Will probably not fly Alaska again.

I did not find out about the delay until I got to the airport where I had to wait 3 hours, not cool. I missed a special gathering. Everyone on staff was very nice.

Flight departed 2hours late with no reason given and then the ground crew neither the flight crew even acknowledged that passengers were inconvenienced !! Alaska is no longer a good airline with bad on time departures or arrivals. 2 of 2 for me now in 7 days
