How can I speak to a live person at the Alaska Airlines?

There are two methods to reach a live person:

  • 1.) by calling manually over and over again, get on a long hold, and then hope the call doesn't drop -- and I'll show you how to do that,
  • 2.) use a calling tool that dials for you, stays on hold, and forwards a call to your phone number when an agent is on the line. (RECOMMENDED)

If you're also looking for assistance with other airlines, such as obtaining a live representative for Delta, you can find helpful information on the Delta Airlines Phone Number page.

Option 1 (SLOW): call manually - time to a human rep = 2+ hours.

Below is the best way to manually dial through their menu faster:

  • Step 1: Dial 8002527522
  • Step 2: Wait for 15 seconds
  • Step 3: Press #
  • Step 4: Wait for 18 seconds
  • Step 5: Press #
  • Step 6: Wait for 8 seconds
  • Step 7: Press #
  • Step 8: Wait for 8 seconds
  • Step 9: Press #
  • Step 10: Wait for 29 seconds

Option 2 (FAST) use a call app - time to a human rep = 5-40 min.

By far the fastest option is to use software. Robots are simply better at this task than humans ever can be.

  • Step 1: head to Claimyr
  • Step 2: select/search for "Alaska Airlines"
  • Step 3: pay for Claimyr to call for you (yes it's a paid version, but it honestly works very well. You can research Claimyr before buying to be sure)
  • Step 4: kick back, relax, and wait for your phone to ring with a Alaska Airlines agent on the line!

If you're looking to contact a different airline, for instance, if you need the Southwest Airlines Phone Number Claimyr also provides services for various carriers, which you can find detailed on their website.

The Alaska Airlines's hours of operation

The Alaska Airlines is open Monday through Friday from 0:00 AM to 12:00 PM ()

For comparison, you might be interested in the hours for other airlines; for instance, you can check the United Airlines Phone Number for their hours of operation and customer service availability.

What is the best time to call the Alaska Airlines?

Do not call during these times (unless you are using Claimyr, which then you can order a callback 24/7 Monday - Sunday):

  • 👎 Monday mornings
  • 👎 After 5 pm on any day
  • 👎 Friday afternoons (as you'll likely not solve your issue until the following week)

But again, if you are using Claimyr's automated callback tool, then you will be able to place a call literally anytime during the day and get a callback soon after.

The best time to call the Alaska Airlines is Wednesday and Thursday afternoons. ⚠️WARNING⚠️: please beware that you often need to dedicate an entire day to dialing over and over just to get on hold. Also, the Alaska Airlines is notorious for dropping calls even when you finally do get on hold! So if you decide to start calling mid-week, due to excessive call volume, you may not be able to reach an agent until the following week or longer.

If you don't consider calling the Alaska Airlines a full-time profession, consider using a calling tool such as Claimyr to guarantee a callback with an agent on the line with zero hold time.
