Alaska Airlines Boeing 737-700 · N622AS

About This Photo

The primary subject is an Alaska Airlines Boeing 737-700 aircraft with the tail number N622AS. The plane is oriented left to right on a wet taxiway, appearing to taxi rather than takeoff or land since its main gear and nose gear are on the ground and it is moving forward at low speed. The airplane features the distinct Alaska Airlines livery with a blue tail displaying the face of a smiling Alaska Native in white, along with green and turquoise accent stripes extending from the tail onto the fuselage and engines. The word "Alaska" is prominently visible on the forward fuselage in blue script lettering. In the background, several blue airport shuttle buses are parked near a terminal or ground services area with facilities and signage visible. Multiple white service vans line the area by a beige building with flat roofing. The airport apron and surrounding taxiways show wet patches, indicating recent rain. The sky is overcast with dark clouds and the overall lighting suggests a moody daytime scene, possibly early morning or late afternoon. Beyond the airport grounds, a tree-covered horizon forms a dark silhouette against the sky, adding depth to the setting.
