New terminal at PDX is gorgeous & very easy. LAX is a horrible, stressful mess & worse than when I grew up there. Waited with confirmed reservation at Dollar rentals for 90 minutes with 3 clerks. ALLOW EXTRA TIME.

On time, smooth take off and landing, efficient boarding. Gate staff excellent, stewardess grumpy, but civil enough.

No WiFi available. It was too late to order food also. Guy next to me was huge (not fat) so had his shoulder & thigh next to me the whole way. Plane was delayed leaving PDX due to 8 other planes waiting. Not my best Alaska airlines flight.

Check in, they should have told me that upon arrival i needed to exit the secure area and re-check in with Eva Air. I wasn't sure what to do upon arrival at S.F.

Flight last minute delayed 2 hours for crew calling out sick

Laney was very helpful. I am computer illiterate. She helped me obtain a boarding pass and preferred seat. She was warm, friendly, helpful, and smiled. I was impressed.

Boarding was quick and easy as always the crew is on their game as always I always have an enjoyable flight so I’m good.

Although both planes (flights) had mechanical issue delaying both of my flights, the crew members handled everything with ease. Both flights had the smoothest take off and landing. I opted to upgrade my seat to first class and really lucked out getting the seat at the very front of the plane. Awesome treat to myself. I really enjoyed my flight.

The staff from check-in counter to the flight crew were great. Flight was right on schedule. 10/10

Changed flight from San Fran to Seattle Then with a Delayed takeoff barely made my connection Waited over an hour for luggage 😜

Very comfortable - thanks. Only small criticism was the delay in disembarking caused by the passengers in the front two rows chatting to the cabin crew.
