Not my typical flight board! |
I'm happy to report that I've made it back and forth from Anchorage in one piece on my mileage run, and had a very pleasant experience overall. All of my United flights were on time and comfortable, and I even had a chance to walk around for a few minutes after I made it up there.
Quick summaries:
Flight #1: SAN-SFO - A screaming baby made this relatively short flight mildly annoying. How did a mom and baby get up front anyway? Maybe it was a points redemption.
Flight #2: SFO-ANC: Friendly flight crew, great seat, overall good food. New sampling for me was a chilled southwest chicken plate with corn chips, vegetables, corn, and salsa. The 4.5 hours flew by.

Flight #3: ANC-SFO: I had about 80 minutes total to walk around, and got to see a few things before this flight took off. It was a rainy and cooler 57 when we landed, a start contrast from the weather we've been having in San Diego. The flight back was equally uneventful, and with the same flight crew! The Flight attendants did a count, and there were five of us all doing the same mileage run (the guy next to me was from Houston). We all had a good laugh about how cheap it was. I slept for about 4 hours...not bad.
Flight #4: SFO-SAN: Fast, quick, cold air conditioning. Landed safely, back in the San Diego heatwave.
Considering the value of the "run" flights ($195), I had a very successful run. Can't wait to find my next deal!
