Suggested Questions to Be Asked of AS Executives by In-Person Attendees
What was submitted from Remote participants:
Link to the presentation: Alaska Airlines Flyer Forum 2022 - YouTube
- The Elite Upgrade Processor does not upgrade at the elite windows when upgrade space is available and often process the upgrade list inconsistently when it does run. This has been a problem for well over a year. When will this be fixed?
- What are the plans for overall network growth (% increase in flights) for 2023 and 2024? Is the focus more flights to existing cities?
- What are the growth plans for SFO? LAX?
- What are the plans for Dallas Love Field (currently only one flight daily to SEA and SFO)?
- Please describe what *if any* plans exist for improving SEA ops in winter weather conditions … the chaos that has rippled throughout the entire system for nearly a week after the last four or five wx events — many of which actually didn’t develop as badly as initially forecast — has left a *very* bad impression of all aspects of AS operations and management
- Going forward, will AS allow mixing partner award flights? Like SEA-LHR on BA, then LHR-KUL on MH on a single ticket?
- Regarding Partner Award availability, are there any plans to make it easier for Seattle-based members to get to major U.S. gateways (e.g., LAX, DFW, ORD). In other words: why is there rarely/never award space at the right level to us get to these gateways?
- What are the expansion plans for PAE? Are Spokane and Portland possibilities?
What was submitted from Remote participants:
- How dependent on the network growth plan is the MAX assembly and delivery schedule?
- What will it take to display "real" EQMs (e.g. No California Bonus) and AS metal segments required for elite tier status in the Alaska App?
- A round robin question to each executive, non-binding answer of course, what airport would each exec like to see a new Alaska Lounge at?

Join us for our first-ever in-person Flyer Forum with Alaska Airlines leaders.
Connecting with our loyal Mileage Plan™ members is important to us. That's why we're creating something new: The Flyer Forum. It's a more personal way for members to interact with Alaska leaders.At this in-person event hosted by Everett Fitzhugh, broadcaster for the Seattle Kraken, you'll hear company updates from our President and CEO Ben Minicucci and a few of our Alaska leaders. They'll share what's coming in 2023 and beyond including valuable oneworld® benefits, new additions to our fleet, and innovations to improve your experience with us. Then, we'll finish with a Q&A session moderated by Everett.
After the presentation, you're invited to join us for a happy hour with drinks and snacks. Best of all, attendees have the chance to win prizes like roundtrip flights, miles and more!
Space is limited, so claim your ticket on a first-come, first-served basis by November 21.
