I have flown on many airlines in the United States and Canada , but on my trip to San Francisco back to Las Vegas , I flew on an airline that I have never been on before , Alaska Airlines .
The Seattle , Washington based airline does fly out of all three New York City airports that I fly out of.
I never thought of taking Alaska out of JFK or Newark Liberty , because I’m not going to find a $49 one way fare like I did for San Francisco to Las Vegas .
For a flight to a destination like Las Vegas , which is always crowded , the plane was surprisingly empty.
If you happen to fly to Las Vegas on Alaska , you’ll be more than likely arriving in Terminal 3, where you have to get a shuttle to take you to terminal , where you can get Lyft, Uber, hotel shuttles, taxis, or good old public transportation like I always do if I get to Vegas at a decent hour, like before 9pm.
The seats are very comfortable and this time, I had a whole row to myself.
I was also able to sleep on the plane and not be disturbed by anyone , except the flight attendants passing out snacks , water or Orange juice as this was a very short flight .
Once again, with just my drawstring bag , I got out of the terminal very fast .
If I happen to get an inexpensive flight on Alaska out of Newark Liberty or JFK , you’d better believe I’m taking it, and because I just had to be “that Sports Diva who loves collecting air miles” , you just know that I signed up for Alaska Airlines Frequent Flyer Program.
Besides, you never know.
God willing, I may be doing a 30 Plus Teams Tour of the Emerald City, aka Seattle, Washington.
I’m booked on Alaska Airlines, JFK to SFO in May (hopefully we will still be able to take that trip)…the fare was competitive with the other airlines and i chose them over United because I’ve had nothing but bad experiences with United since they took over Continental.

Fingers crossed and prayers that you guys can make the trip in May. Supposed to go away in May and June not sure now. I have miles with them but United is awful. I’d take Spirit before i take United, no lie

Yes, 😞 so sad. I think our governors are doing the best they can, but the downplaying at the federal level in January and February really hurt us
