TRIP REPORT | First Time on Alaska B737 MAX 9 | Honolulu to Los Angeles | Alaska Boeing 737-9 MAX

Published 2024-05-11
A comfortable flight from Honolulu to Los Angeles onboard one of the Alaska Airlines Boeing 737-9 MAX in Premium Class (that's how Alaska Airlines calls the rows just behind First Class which offers a lot of extra space).
After some amazing days in Hawaii, it was time to fly back to Los Angeles. After some exploration of Honolulu International Airport and some amazing planespotting, we boarded the B737MAX that would take us to Los Angeles.
Everyone knows why the Alaska Airlines Boeing 737-9 MAX is famous for... but here you won't find any kind of sensationalism. I'll try to explain in my own words what happened with that door plug a few months ago.
We took off towards Honolulu and quickly made a 90° turn towards the Pacific Ocean. The standard departure from Honolulu is a joy for the eyes. It looks designed on purpose to be able to enjoy the beauty of the island. The sky was completely clear, so the views were just perfect.
Once we left Hawaii behind, the only thing we saw for the next 4 hours was water. A lot of water. The sunset took place 2 hours into the flight. The lights in the sky during it were beautiful. That means we enjoyed a night approach and landing in Los Angeles. In fact, we overflew the the city on final approach. What a view!
About the onboard service, Alaska Airlines offers the option of pre-booking some meals. I chose to prebook the salad and a burger. Both were really good for being economy class meals.
Now it's your turn!
Have you ever flown with Alaska Airlines? Which route? How was the experience? Have you ever been in Los Angeles? Maybe in Hawaii? What do you think about the Alaska Airlines service?
Lots of things to talk about! Read you all in the comments!

I agree; healthy competition leads to innovation, improvements and lower prices! I find it breathtaking to land at LAX (my home airport) in the evening.... thank you for another great video!!
-
Another informative video .I agree with you 1 incident which I am sure was scary for passengers is surely a lesson learned for the manufacturers but cannot define the airline so long live Boeing.

Good morning Lucas,finally we have a new video,good for us👍👍

You’re absolutely right, it’s in Boeing’s best interest to follow all quality control procedures so they’ll be sure to follow them. Right now the press is focusing on any event happening to a Boeing plane, like sliding off a runway, occasional engine issues, etc. These events happen normally on any planes, but only now receive press scrutiny. Flew this route as well on a 777, not a big fan of only having water to land on for hours!

Glad you had a safe flight, Lucas . Hope Boeing gets everything straightened out like the landing gear on the FedEx cargo plane & the door plug. My dad was a private pilot with a Piper Cub airplane & he always told me growing up that flying is safer than driving. Great video! 👍🏻🙋🏼♀️🇺🇸✈️
