- Something I've wanted to do for a very long time, is fly the famous Alaska milk run, serving small cities and towns along Alaskas Southwestern coast. Today we will be starting in Seattle, heading to Ketchikan, Sitka, Juneau and finally Anchorage. While these milk runs have been flown on the -400, -700, -800 and -900 in the past, in todays video we're trying Alaskas newest aircraft, the 737MAX9. If you've been following the aviation industry, you will know that the 737MAX has proven to be quite a problem, initially with MCAS, but additionally, the emergency exit door plugs fitted on this exact type of aircraft. Airlines like United and Alaska don't operate these aircraft with their maximum intended passenger capacity, so the mid-rear emergency exits can use plugs instead. These plugs were found to be fitted wrong when an Alaska 737MAX9 was forced to make an emergency landing after one of these doors flew off, resulting in the grounding of all Alaska and United 737MAX9's. This video was recorded in July 2023, so a number of months before these faults were discovered.

Thank you so much man, always a pleasure seeing you in the comments. Happy (late) Friday!
Good trip report. Amazing scenery you see on that flight. Nice history facts added to the video as well. Liked the video.
Thank you, glad you enjoyed it!
@@Aviation18 you’re welcome
loved this trip so much! what a blast from the past, great work like always.
Thank you so much, it was definitely amazing!
Alaska Airlines has been new to my airport since last month! They are flying daily between Seattle-Tacoma and Toronto-Pearson, usually with a Boeing 737 MAX 9!
That's awesome!
It looks like you took Alaska flight 67 for the Milk run. My friend user Jeb Brooks took the Milk run as Flight 65. However when he took flight 65 in Juneau what would seem like a mechanical delay turned into a mechanical cancellation. Which meant Jeb and his wife had to spend the night in Juneau. Which had its benefits. Then took another flight straight on to Anchorage. Flight 65 was done on a 737-700. It also makes sense it’s called a Milk run because these planes fly more than just people. They definitely fly perishable items like food and definitely milk. Lots of it. Reason why makes sense. No road access.
Yes, there are a few Alaska milk runs and that sounds interesting!
love this route to much, done seattle-ketchikan hundreds of times… never got around to doing the full route but hopefully I will soon
Thanks and that's awesome, it's definitely worth doing the whole milk run
great video! such a neat route!
Thank you!
Alaska actually has a couple non-ER 737-900s that have scimitars and eyebrows. It’s a funny looking combo. Nice video!
Oh wow, I didn't know that and thank you!
Nice video, and very interesting flight!
Thank you!
