It depends on how the connecting flight is booked I have seen many times that people book 2 seperate itineraries for the sole purpose of saving a few dollars
If:
A. If the connecting flight was booked by a non-partner / airline not having an interline with Alaska he is on his own
B. 2 Seperate PNRs he is on his own
C. waht were the loads like on the following flights if sold out, then he could have been placed on standby until he got onto a flight.
Having personaly traveled on US Airways from LAS to FLL via PHX, there are several roaming electric carts to go from one end to another at a decent speed through out the airport inthe gate area. Of course these carts are not operated by the airlines, but the airport itself.
