- Alaska's new interior features some of the most comfortable standard reclining First Class seats I've sat in. They combined blends of both Virgin America and old Alaska Airlines elements and created a pretty sleek and modern cabin.
The 737-700 isn't very easy to fly on in Alaska's fleet unless you're traveling to or in Alaska. After all, they only have 11 of them, and its reduced capacity is perfect for small Alaskan towns.
I had a great onboard experience. The flight was a moderate 3 1/2 hour hop up to Anchorage. I was visiting Alaska for the Iditarod Trail Sled Dog Race. It is an annual long-distance sled dog race run in early March from Anchorage, AK to Nome, AK. Mushers and a team of 14 dogs, of which at least 5 must be on the towline at the finish line, cover the distance in 8-15 days or more. If you'd like to see my upcoming short film on clips I filmed from the race, make sure to subscribe to my second channel: / @quintinsoloviev

I did
Me to lot of respect man you are talented
I've got a sneaky suspicion you like jazz & blues :D Nice vid!
Lol the look on the old lady's face when QFS was boarding lol
Love your channel. Especially the interesting info you pass along. I did notice that big bowl of chocolates from the lounge in the beginning. Oh, to be able to eat all that without hitting the gym!
Thanks haha! Hey now I hit the gym man 😂
Oh wow that sunset landing was incredible
Absolutely beautiful approach into Anchorage. Your camera work is the best yet your channel is so underrated. Hope to see more videos like this in the future!
He didn't mention it so I'm just gonna remind everyone here, Quintin is 6'3"
Oh good. I thought he was 5'8". Good to know he towers over most of us lol
i was just gonna write the same thing 6'3" 😊
Coke Cans And Winglets I got him beat! I’m 6’6”!!
Niklas Enblom u too tall lol
What a beautiful scenery arriving into Anchorage!
I live in Anchorage. Have taken this flight countless times. Always excited to get out of state, but flying in is always wonderful.
You`ve captured some stunning footage of winter landscapes during these February / March trip reports Quintin. I can understand your giving the chicken sandwich a miss this time around!
Outstanding. You must love Alaska airlines
Excellent camera work and really superior editing. Most enjoyable. You have the eye of a pro.
Spectacular scenery. Very good capture.
Looking at such videos, I also began to shoot my flights ... There are just few people who watch it...(((
I love your videos, they make me feel motivated to want to travel more and more !!, I suggest that you set the departure and arrival times to have a more real perception of time, greetings from Argentina !!!
I take it this is from this past winter with this video because of all the snow. Be safe flying always.
Wow, what a beautiful scenery arriving into Anchorage, and the approach onto rwy 33 is not something I've experienced either! The snowcovered mountains are really breathtaking.
I really enjoyed it! Liked!!
Beautiful footage!!!
Amazing takeoff and landing!!
omg this was a wonderful video!! great scenery and camera work!! thanks for sharing qman. think im gonna go watch it again lol. be safe my friend.
I love how ur doing Alaska Airlines Keep the great work!
awesome flight experience QFS Aviation
I like your videos, I'm from McGrath Alaska, and I was in Anchorage for the Iditarod start, I raced the 2020 iron dog, finished
Wow no way! That’s awesome man. Congratulations on finishing the Iron Dog!
Amazing trip report!
Loving all these Alaska videos! Maybe 'cause I don't fly them much anymore LOL! I used to.
- Red
Amazing flight review!🤩
Thanks! i’m taking this flight next week
Love your vids man
Awesome vid!
I buddy I like (love) you channel. I love watch video of landing and departure of airplane.
Thanks for flying out of my home airport
QFS=Quentin from Seattle
QFS- Quintin from New York
@@garrett5643 If Quintin From New York Then It Would Be QFN Aviation Instead of QFS :)
@@indiaball5233 Ya think?
@@indiaball5233 well, he's not from Seattle WA. I was just pointing that fact out in joke form. QFS stands for his name, Quintin F. Soloviev.
Awesome buddy nice flight
With so much airplane movement there, half of the hotels must be occupied by crews. Nice video!!
Yey another Alaska flight
And i love u channel
This Q re-view is brought to you by English breakfast tea and warm nuts. Qman never disappoints as we watch yet another spectacular video. including a stunning sunset. Don't forget to like and subscribe as we issue another well done Quebec Foxtrot Sierra and thanks for sharing
Nice aerial shots QFS! For anyone going on this same route, reserve the window seat on the right side of the airplane like QFS did for the best views of the Alaska coastline. On a clear day, the views are spectacular. Alaska Airlines - my personal 'Favorite' domestic Airline.
Runway 33 landing. Pretty rare. Lucky.
Thanks QFS !!!
Love snow
Nothing like flying on a "one owner" aircraft !! Bit like buying a used car !! Some great views mate...who needs an I Pad (unless cloudy of course !!) I would avoid the food as well...after what happened !! When this global mess is over ( god knows when I have Alaska high on my list for a visit !! But am not holding my breath !!) Apparently Anchorage is now the busiest airport in the world due to the pandemic due to it's geographical position etc... especially for Cargo flights !! Thanks as always Q...really enjoy your videos !! Well done and stay safe and well !!
Very Nice Video🔥😀
Anchorage is so nice
Excellent trip report, dude!! However, I couldn't find the footage from the Iditarod race on your second channel
c15 is the same gate I got on to take my flight home from Seattle to Spokane Washington
alaska airline is a great airline seattle is my home so i fly them everywhere (i have a trip down to Wisconsin in just 2 weeks)
Who needs a ferry to go to Alaska? Take Alaska Airlines! That can be a great way to go to Alaska for half the price as the ferry which lasts for 2 nights!
Signed, Angela.
The Alaska lounge looks nice with views of the tarmac. Way better than United Club there.
Do you have the takeoff video without the music? The engine roar on this takeoff sounded amazing!
Love that cabin the 700s are so much better thats plane n615as is the only 737-700 in Alaska’s fleet I haven’t flown on they love flying them up here in Alaska
Was the N Gates Alaska Lounge closed at this point? I'm not sure if you've been to that one yet, but it's many times better than both the one in C and D, and one of the best of any of the domestic carriers IMO. Either way, another great video as usual. 🙂
You were flying First Class and they charged you for an alternate meal choice.....?...that seems to be a little unfair and petty to me. Your videos are always well filmed and edited!
You truly capture the the experience in a most refreshing way. Thanks for taking me along!
Good choice on fruit selection VS iffy chicken sandwich 😎 Are you going to be doing any limited flying soon ?? stay safe
I'll be flying Alaska Air on Oct.5th in First Class & I've seen several videos to see what's expected. This, by far
is the most informative of them all & some of your footage is breathtakingly beautiful. Thank you so much.
Alaska to Atlanta!!!! Yay & so ready😊🙃😉
Hey QFS Aviation, please do a day time non stop flight on Alaska airlines from SEA to FAI if you have a chance to do so I’d be very interested in watching that video
Alaska Airlines is Next in this Video.
2.23 He is loosens his muscles before handeling the ridiculous amount of 1. class luggage, that,s it.
Best regards from the man on the ground.😉
The intro kills my ears but I still watch this
In March how long is the sun up there? I hear it stays dark at least 2 months out of the year in Alaska? Nice video.
Roughly 12 hours a day. Summertime it’s always sunny, and December is mostly dark
😀👍
Done
What are you wearing?
How do i ollie?
Your voice is my curiousity😁😁😁
Why? It often shows up briefly in his videos and it always sounds like a normal young American person's voice to me.
@@jamesclendon4811 yeah.. It made me fully enjoy the ambience of the trip
Q ... is it just your luck or is it that Alaska Airlines only serves chicken sandwiches? Seems that’s the only choice on all of your Alaska Airlines flights. 🧐. Beautiful photography as always 👍🏻
Why are You Going Again Alaska?
Again I have to keep asking. What do you do for a living ? Bc how do u have this much money to keep buying first class and business class tickets ?
Can I get a rip for flights without COVID
Are you sure it was the sandwich from the plane that upset your stomach last time? Doesn't it take a bit for your body to react to food poisoning?
I hope you knew the passenger seat next to was empty.
Quem é do Brasil deixa like
Which type of aircraft was that at 6:23
@Flint Yeastwood I meant the one with the engine on its tail
@@SAM-xy7bu No identification or type of aircraft identifier since its a 'mock' airplane used for fire fighting training purposes. But with that tail mounted engine, it was probably meant to replicate a DC-10 / MD-11 aircraft.
That chicken sandwich is trolling you.
hi
Alaska has an ok at best first class. Not worth getting unless it's a free upgrade or you pay the 100$ or so but never pay full price.
March 4th, 2020 COVID19 was escalating in the Seattle area with cases going around a choir practice and several Amazon workers testing positive for COVID19
I can understand why you would be afraid to eat the same sandwich you got sick from after it just happened, so sorry that happened to you
First
2:21 I think he's little bit boring
No tomato juice again hmm weird
Be careful flying with this virus problem that is everywhere. Please watch the passenger tables and passengers around you in the aircraft in general.
You have to get some hand wipes and wipe your hands all over them.
Nice video but the food looked horrible!! Back in the 60’s and 70’s Alaska would serve you steak & lobster on china. What happened?
I will fly first class with Alaska Airlines next time as first class ticket holders are not allowed in the lounge at United , Delta & AA . It sucks as you pays double the fare and get no service and recognition So the executive at United , Delta & AA take note you are going to lose a lot if not all paying First Class customer to Alaska Airline if you don't change your stupid rule . Any other airlines in the world treat their premium paying customer than you lot put together
You had to pay for that platter given it was technically paid for in ypur first class ticket. i would have told the F/A where she could stick it. Shame on Alaska Airlines
