Getting that flight was a pain in the ass. Kept locking me out at the seat map section just like last night, so I called in. Ticket guy wanted to charge me $25. Internet lady had a thicker accent than Nathan Fielder's exaggerated Asian lady driver accent, so I asked to go back to tickets and got a new lady. She initially couldn't find tickets available on my flight, probably because I was halfway through buying like 4 of them online at that point, but eventually got it worked out and waived the fee. Half-hour on the phone for all that, plus however long it took before I gave up online.
She said since the first leg is on Alaska metal, that I might have to pay them for baggage. It's still 1st class on that part and I've got their credit card. Think I'll be able to have them waive that, if I even take a checked bag?
