I have used Alaska Airlines for years of flying. They have treated me with respect and truly appreciate my business. I travel 4-5 times a year, all over the world. I had only one encounter with an counter agent in Anchorage, very brusk, and the impression she gave was that she really did not want to be there. After I got home, I toyed with the idea of sending an email to Alaska Airlines to let them know of the treatment I had received. I really hate doing that. Then, imagine my surprise when I received a letter back giving me 5,000 miles and apologizing for what had happened. I really appreciated their concern and prompt customer service. I will keep flying Alaska and their partners
