More efficient with checking lines and boarding/checking bags when needed.

They treat me well because of my one world status. Crew is attentive and professional. One of the best airlines out there.

A TV Screen and movies would have been a great addition. The Alaska Terminal at JFK is TOO BIG!!! You need to go up and down 3 escalators to get to your gate and to baggage claim -- and all this while you are carrying your backpack, other bags, etc. I don't know what they were thinking. You can easily miss a flight if you don't add in at least 30 minuites to get to a gate.

The plane was dirty, the seats were tiny, wasnt my favorite airline tbh

My TSA pre check was left Off my boarding pass which was a large inconvenience.

It wasn’t great. Your app is not user friendly unless you sign up for those points. It tries to force you and won’t show you flight/trip info until you sign up. You have to somehow get into get your boarding pass because your kiosks don’t offer boarding pass information only bag check. It was not helpful or user friendly. The app is useless unless you sign up for your rewards program. My daughters info was missing even though I checked us in we had to get out of security and go back to a ticket window the woman told us that it sometimes populates incorrectly so it didn’t have her information. It populated incorrect birth date. She said this is common. Luckily we were at Palm Springs and not JFK where leaving the giant security line would have been a much bigger problem. I will avoid your airline in the future if it’s possible. Also no food availability except dry snack boxes.

Was late but $50 voucher was great benefit of the summit card.

Poor. They should have given me a row with more room and instead they put me in a middle seat with two strangers next to me

They were so kind to us! The entire staff were so good to us when we had our service dog join our trip and we couldn't be more grateful!

I love a red eye flight. No lines to wait in. Lots of turbulence on the flight and a very shaky landing.
