My Alaska Airlines 737-800 flight from Seattle to Palm Springs in Premium Class was pleasant, with a nice lunch from Alaska’s buy-onboard menu and friendly service down the West Coat.
Why did I give up my prime 18F seat pictured above for an exit row seat that did not recline? Because I wanted a margarita with lunch and cocktails are free in Premium Class but cost $12 in economy class. Plus, I still had plenty of legroom and also enjoyed an open middle seat, so it all worked out.
Each seat had a USB-C outlet and there was a universal A/C outlet between seats.
A great solo travel tip spotted this week on Live and Let's Fly.
