Creator's Key Takeaways

I am so far loving the space, loving the experience, and I will say the staff had big smiles as they welcomed us, and that means a lot to us.

Alaska Airlines, if you can get it at the right price is a good deal.

We are really liking the space that we have on our seat.

It's a 6-hour long flight, so we're looking forward to it.

Over the years, several smaller airlines merged, and in 1944, the name “Alaska Airlines” officially launched. By the 1950s and 60s, Alaska Airlines expanded its fleet and routes, becoming known for its adventurous operations in remote Alaskan regions. In later decades, the airline grew into the U.S. West Coast market, eventually becoming one of America’s most respected carriers for on-time performance, customer service, and reliability. A major milestone came in 2016 when Alaska Airlines acquired Virgin America, expanding its network significantly and strengthening its presence in major cities like San Francisco, Los Angeles, Seattle, and Portland. Today, Alaska Airlines operates a large fleet of Boeing 737 aircraft, along with regional jets through Horizon Air and SkyWest. Known for its friendly service, free texting onboard, and strong loyalty program (Mileage Plan), Alaska remains one of the top-rated airlines in the United States. 🎥 What’s Inside This Video ✔️ Newark Airport (EWR) security & terminal experience ✔️ Boarding our Alaska Airlines 737-900 ✔️ Full economy seat review (4 seats as a family) ✔️ Window seat views & comfort test ✔️ In-flight entertainment on your own devices ✔️ Snacks & food service review ✔️ Honest pros & cons for families ✔️ Smooth landing in Portland (PDX) ✔️ Arrival experience through the terminal & baggage claim Follow us as we share real, family-friendly travel experiences from all over the world!
