Are Alaska's Phones down?

My wife and I have been trying to call both the Gold and regular Alaska reservation numbers from opposite ends of the country for the past hour, but we both keep getting a message "Your call did not go through.".

Is there a systemwide outage with the phones?

I don't know about the phones but online check-in took a very long time this morning. Maybe people are going online when phone calls don't go through.

Yes, the phone system is down, and the providers are working on solving the problem as quickly as possible. No ETR at this point though. I'm sorry for the inconvenience! Alaskaair.com is not impacted by the outage, however.

Been tying since 8AM PST as well, no-go for any of the AS #'s I have (Award rez, regular rez, MVP #, Customer Care).

Yep. Experienced this yesterday. Got the "your call did not go through" once.

Left the queue for a call back "in 31-42 minutes"

Waited an hour and received no call back. Called again - stayed on the line and finally got the SDC I was after.

Couldn't do the SDC online as it involved a change in routing.

I had trouble connecting last night as well. Took 4 calls before the call went through.

Wow, no wonder the folks stranded in HAV couldn't get through! And they thought it was an area-code issue...

Angry Alaska Phones are not completing

After several call attempts to the Gold MVP number and the regular number - I cannot get through. Now it says "having technical problems - try later".

P2 and I both have had issues calling AS over the past 2-3 days. Our calls ultimately went through, but we're both independently 100K and had 3+ hour holds/callback times on all calls.
