Not really. Ground time is short…usually less than 45 minutes, just enough time to turn and burn. Honestly, these are short segments, ranging from 20 minutes to about 45 minutes (SEA-KTN and JNU-ANC excluded). It’s easy enough to use the lav on the ground, and if the flight attendant isn’t too persnickety they will usually let you poke your head out the door to take a picture (without leaving the plane).
