Thank you fir sharing your trip. Yes, Flying First or Business Class is always nice.

[sonjastumpf]

Alaska Airlines has glassware in 1st class. And you are right. Because it was operated by Regional Skywest they didn't have them. But I am so happy you enjoyed your 1st Class experience ❤️ It is so nice to fly up front. Hope to see you on one of my flights.

What they did not tell you is that they have the highest possible One World status, so their tickets in Alaska Airlines are always automatically upgraded...

I pass that airport every day. I love montana.

When you flew from your US state you didn’t go through Canada? Was it a straight flight into Alaska?

[BeamCrasherNG]

Holy cow, that sandwich looks absolutely delicious

[heathermillar]

Like Alaska to and from AK. Def preorder food.

I always try to be the last on the plane, and the first off. this limits my time on board. that's why we booked seat 1 and 2 or A and c or whatever they are called.

Paper cup is more environmentally friendly than non disposable glass? You sure about that? You sure about that?

[simonettegiselle]

I flew first class with alaskan airlines three weeks ago and didn’t have paper cups. They were glass as always

Alaska Air first class is smaller than Virgin's Business class ... probably why it didn't cost us much more to go First Class. They really should call it Business class because, Alaska Air doesn't really have a First Class on it's older 737-800. The food is good on Alaska air first class ... especially the cheese plate with hummus.

[jamesm]

also the destination is a big deal too. If you are going to major cities the planes are usually full

[bukdavid]

Nobody flying to Bozeman that's why lol

[Normanoklahoma]

I live in Bozeman, Montana
Well, technically Manhattan

[anncochenour]

That’s not really first class only because it’s one of their smaller planes. Try Hawaiian airlines or Delta international NOW that’s first class

[piknick]

Whoopie do, those seats are trash as ‘first class’
