  • After what turned into 4 days in the northernmost city in America, we finally got a flight and flew back down to Anchorage aboard Alaska Airlines' B737-800! Upgraded from a -700 due to the previous day's cancellation, this was possibly my most favorite Alaska flight rivaling only the Milk Run I'd flown a year prior. The seats were as always very comfortable with generous legroom, the crew was extremely friendly, and most importantly the views and scenery on this flight were absolutely breathtaking - the captain going out of his way to circle around Denali for the passengers to catch an extended view of North America's tallest mountain...standing at a whopping 20,310' high. There's no Alaska bush plane or turboprop that's gonna beat the views we saw on a jet. What a fantastic way to top this flight and the Arctic Adventure off. Hope you guys enjoy!

    What a cool pilot to request clearance from ATC to circle Denali. That is a very rare close up look! I feel fortunate to live in Seattle where Alaska Airlines has a substantial base. I think it is consistently a very good airline.

      This is actually pretty common. I used to fly this flight a few times a month for close to 35 years and many times we did a circle around Denali.

    Is hard to believe that he called that payphone an antique, when I literally remember like yesterday looking for quarters to place a phone call back in the 90's .. Sometimes I keep forgetting that there are no longer any pay phones left at food markets and convenient stores.

    I find it very interesting that Alaska airlines is your favorite, granted I’ve only flown with them once. Personally I prefer JetBlue, the on board experience is far better than any other airline I’ve flown with. Though I do wish JetBlue had more direct destinations from MCO.

    Circling denali is rare, yet also dangerous. There have been accidents from similar things in the past. Usually atc is told to not allow deviation unless its for weather or emergency
