It was explained to me that everyone who shops at the store on International Boulevard gets what would be the employee discount. There are a few items that only employees can purchase, but otherwise the store is open to everyone.
The “I am Alaska” t-shirts are a great deal at $5 each.

New snack packaging.
Yesterday on ANC-SEA was served snacks in this new packaging. FA said it is part of the rebranding effort which has been slowed up due to the Delta assault. Frankly it looks kind of like a generic store brand to me.

According to a thread on A.net, an updated AS livery will roll out today...
"Chester is now navy blue instead of dark blue. The teal accent around him is gone. The dark blue cheat line is now navy blue and the teal cheat line is now green. The Alaska word mark is now the updated one. And the winglets are incorporating the color change but also involve a "swoop" design instead of straight lines."

Minor changes, IMO. The font is slightly different, and the K no longer looks like it's kicking the A's tush.
Here's a re-post of the photo from the thread on the Airliners.net site:
And here's one of the plane from Instagram, courtesy of "wrenchairplane," but it shows only the lettering and not the tail.
Alaska Air new livery.
You're welcome.

I like the design on the scimitars, but it looks out of place on the whole. They could have "modernized" the cheat line to have a more sculpted look.
Seems like a lot of trouble to repaint a plane to look almost exactly the same.
