I followed up on "Alaska (used to) Listens" and got a note back "sorry" and that's about it.

Apparently cancellations are so common now they don't even bother with compensation.
Hey I didn't even get the politeness of a reply to my Alaska (doesn't) Listens note. Even a we're sorry would have been better than just being ignored. Sure hope someone wakes management up before permanent damage is done (they're getting close from where I stand).
