We still get the warm cookie, correct? I wonder what the larger beverage snack will be in the main cabin? Even before the pandemic it was always just the Biscoff unless you were in Premium Class.

For your cookie keeping records.

On my LAX-GDL flight yesterday, I received the cheese platter, ginger ale served in the can, Seagrams 7.5oz, with a glass of ice on the side. Unfortunately, the cookie served afterwards, was an epic fail. It wasn't chocolate chip & it wasn't warmed, in fact, it wasn't even fully cooked. I don't know what kind it was but it had some kind of a nut in it and was exceedingly sweet. I thought maybe we would get some ice cream so we could mix in our own cookie dough, but no such luck.

Great flight crew, service was proactive with offers of additional drinks.

There were 9 in F, I was upgraded sometime overnight before 5:00 am when I checked. 1DF was blocked & one FA was seated in 1D for takeoff & landing. 1AC was a couple as was 2DF, the other 5 pairs had 1 passenger.

Oh! And we had an aborted landing and a go around too. Shouldn't I have gotten EQM twice? lol

“You can reserve your food from 2 weeks to an hour before your flight. Order early for the best selection.”

When will they bring back the Woodford Reserve Bourbon? I’ve flown AA FC multiple times this year post March and they manage to do a full drink service and the prepackaged food. I love Alaska but a mini bottle shouldn’t be a problem..

I’m going to miss it by a day! My return flight is on the 15th. Maybe I’ll get rescheduled due to the 9th circle of hell leaking up into PDX.

9/10 AS2836 ONT-PDX operated by QX:
fruit and cheese plate
cookie, warm
washed down with coffee

i heard them mention seltzer now being available in back.

And I’ll accept the evening wrap as a reasonable facsimile of a burrito.

Please, don't give up your "day job." [Besides, you can't even spell burrito ]

SFO to Seattle--Cheese platter and warm cookie handed out all at once. Agree the nut cookie or whatever it is, is a fail. It was warm, but didn't seem fully cooked to me either.
