No — Alaska Airlines does not provide traditional live-TV channels on board (like live news or sports on seat-back screens).
What they do offer: a streaming library of movies and TV shows you access on your own device after connecting to their onboard Wi-Fi.
If your ride includes Wi-Fi, bring your tablet or phone and you’re set—but don’t count on live channel programming.
 
I was actually curious about this before my last Alaska Airlines flight because I was hoping to catch some live sports while traveling. From my experience, Alaska Airlines doesn’t have traditional seat-back live TV, but they do offer live streaming through their onboard Wi-Fi. You can watch live news, sports, and a variety of channels on your own device.

I ended up figuring this out when my original flight got delayed, and I had to call 844-734-0813 to change to an earlier one. The agent explained exactly how the streaming worked and even mentioned which aircraft had the best Wi-Fi signal. It was super helpful because I could plan ahead and make sure my tablet was fully charged for the flight.

So, while it’s not live TV in the traditional sense, you can watch live content if you have a device. And if you ever need to rebook or confirm what amenities your flight has, calling 844-734-0813 is by far the quickest way to get clear answers.
