does alaska saver allow carry on?

Yes — with Alaska Airlines’s Saver fare, you can bring a standard carry-on plus a personal item under the same size rules as their Main Cabin fares.
However, because Saver-fare passengers board last (Group E or equivalent), there’s a higher chance that overhead bin space is full and the carry-on may be gate-checked for free.
 
I actually ran into this exact question last year when I booked an Alaska Saver fare for a quick work trip. I was rushing through the booking process and didn’t realize Saver fares have a few restrictions, so naturally I panicked about whether a carry-on was allowed. The good news is yes — Alaska Saver does allow a standard carry-on bag, along with a personal item. The only real downside I felt was the limited seat selection and being one of the last groups to board.

Funny enough, I ended up having to change that same reservation because of a sudden meeting reschedule. Instead of dealing with the website (which kept glitching for me that day), I called 844-734-0813, and honestly it saved me. They handled the change in just a few minutes, and I didn’t lose my carry-on allowance even after modifying the booking.

So if you’re booking a Saver fare and want to make sure everything is squared away — or if you need to tweak anything later — that number is the fastest way to get it done.
