Trip report: Alaska Airlines Anchorage-Seattle
It’s not often I get to fly mid-day. Usually, I get on board the late-afternoon or red-eye flights. It’s the nature of things. Cheaper, too.
But today, I headed out to Seattle on Alaska flight #98, departing at the reasonable hour of 10:16am.
The flight was packed. Our own Sen. Ted Stevens was snoozing in an exit-row-aisle seat. Every seat was filled on the 737-400.
The first-class lav. was out of order, so we had the opportunity to stroll back to the rear of the aircraft. The flight attendants were busy handing out the Digi-players, snacks and drinks.
The flight was quick–just two hours and 53 minutes. I sat next to a Fed-Ex pilot returning home to Seattle.
