I asked CS and they said there is nowhere in the contract of carriage that says first class gets priority baggae handling. Maybe this is a throwback policy to pre-OW when Alaska didn't have priority baggage handling period.
This has been my experience. Only OWE. With that said, my bags have never once come out first on an AS flight (100k here). They are always middle to last. I swear AS does this just to piss me off a little more (after my transcontinental flight, with a 45+ wait for a gate, and super delayed bags). I guess the “priorty” tag makes me (and others?) feel special, lol?
