SkyWest uses the Embraer E175s all over the west coast for quick regional flights. The E175 is an extremely capable aircraft loved by pilots because of its power and handling and loved by passengers because of its perfect size and comfortable cabin. Even though the E175 has a passenger capacity of only 76, all SkyWest E175s dedicate 12 of those seats as big recliner First Class seats. I decided to try these seats out with Alaska to see if it was worth it for a quick hour-long flight.

Thank you for posting this video. I’m going to be taking an Alaska E175 from Seattle to Monterey first class. My brother n law works for Alaska Airlines and suggested that I take the single first class because I’m a bit claustrophobic.
Yes, of course, the E1 75 is a great aircraft in the first class is pretty nice for such a small plane. I hope you enjoy your flight!
Beautiful Video! :)
Just a regional fly that is done as it should and one arrive to the section all right. Waiting for the next one!
Really enjoyed the video. I went to school right by SJC and nice to see it modernized!
Love the E175, we fly it for the quick hop to SeaTac to get connections. But have more leg room if you aren’t in front of bulkhead
Me vibing to the song at the start of the video😘
Hot tip for legroom. This plane kept the configuration from when Alaska had Preferred Plus (the precursor to Premium Class from 2015) which was the 1st few rows on this plane and just the bulkhead and exit rows on the mainline fleet. According to the airline, the seat pitch for the bulkhead and exit rows was 36” minimum, which makes me think that Premium Class should be the 1st few rows plus bulkhead and exit rows like the economy plus seats on AA and United as a way for the airline to generate more seat revenue.
Love the E175's. Although I do avoid 1A, due to my long legs. Rows 2-4 are much better, legroom wise.
Kinda sad to see all the regional products be the same. I think Alaska would have a leg up if they changed it from all the others.
Good video tho!
For sure! It would be so cool to see a bit of variety but I guess it’s easier and cheaper for both embraer and all the airlines to keep things relatively similar.
