Anchorage to Honolulu on Alaska 737-800: flight to a winter warm up. 

Thanks for the comment! Glad you enjoyed.

Thanks again. I only spent a short week there, so here I am already back home..

I remember getting wined and dined while still on the ground. now they board all passengers through the first class doors so now you have to wait until airborne before getting any service.

Thanks for the kind words!

Thank you!

Couple of factors to that - primarily the power at which the engine operates. At, and shortly after, the takeoff, the engines are running about about 94-98% of max power, sometimes 100%. As you climb and level off, the power level decreases. In addition, the altitude change and speed make the sound vary as well.

Thanks and enjoy Hawaii! The 738 (N558AS) ahead of us was headed to Seattle

I love it here! Born and raised in these islands and I wouldn't trade it for the world! Did you enjoy your time here? I pray all went well! Mahalo for the reg#

Loved it! This was my 5th time on Oahu and I’ve also been to Maui. It’s always a great time and everyone is hospitable. I’ll keep returning as often as I can. I’ve got a couple of other videos to/from HNL on my channel as well.

aps_ak - Oh SWEET! Imma subscribe now. Was this your last visit here? I think it’s time for a redo! 🤣 🤣

Kalei K awesome! Yeah this was the last visit - Feb 2018. It was a bit rainier than normal but still loved it. It’s absolutely time for a re-do haha

Thanks! They are definitely beautiful in their own different ways.

Well good luck in Hawaii as that were I'm guessing your at

I wish, but I am back now.

cool cool

DrSysop thanks! The earliest sunset in Anchorage is at 3:40pm, and that’s in December (winter solstice). By the end of February, when this video was shot, sun sets around 6pm.

Ok thanks, I see Summer you have 22 hours of daylight also.

Depends on where you are in Alaska. Anchorage gets about 19 hours of daylight on the longer days.

Winter ain't over yet.

I did fly first class from Anchorage to Honolulu and it wasn't the greatest flying experience. Though the First Class lounge was great the flight itself wasn't a First Class experience. First of all the seats were wide and comfy with lots of leg room but the seat pitch was laughable. It only reclined like 10 degrees! They provided a blanket yet no pillow. They did have in flight entertainment Android tablet. The greatest disappointment was the food service. They actually ran out of food selections! There are only twelve first class seats and they ran out of food! We wanted beef for dinner but they only had the pasta dish. The stewardess said we should've ordered our meal online or on their app to get what we wanted. The last hour of the flight my wife wanted hot tea and the stewardess said that she already turned off the hot water! Seriously Alaska Airlines? We paid premium and got subpar service. Save your money and fly coach and bring your own food as it's much much cheaper.

@kanehi It’s okay, Alaska is getting new interiors witch means more recline, more service, (I think.).

You can, as long as the airline has ETOPS certification. Southwest just got theirs and will be flying to Hawaii shortly.

I remember. I may have been there for it.
