Alaska Airlines Adds 9 New Routes
Alaska Airlines is launching nine new nonstop routes to a mix of popular leisure destinations, including its first-ever flights to the Bahamas and Guatemala; new service between Las Vegas and two cities in Mexico; and a much-desired seasonal flight connecting Palm Springs and New York City.
“There’s something for everyone in our roster of new flights – from amazing beaches to snowy mountains, big city buzz to tranquil deserts,” said Kirsten Amrine, vice president of revenue management and network planning for Alaska Airlines. “We’re also now flying our guests to countries we’ve never served before as we increase our international service. The Bahamas off the coast of South Florida offer pristine islands and turquoise waters, and Guatemala in Central America excites with adventure, history and culture.”
Check out details of the new routes below.
Bahamas bound from Los Angeles and Seattle
New flights to the Bahamas are a first for Alaska Airlines to the Caribbean nation. From two West Coast gateways – Los Angeles and Seattle – Alaska now flies nonstop to Nassau, the heart of the Bahamas. From there, partner Bahamasair can whisk guests to the country’s idyllic out islands and beyond on flights purchased directly at alaskaair.com.
Growing in Latin America with new service to Guatemala
Alaska is expanding service to Latin America with the addition of daily, year-round service between Los Angeles and Guatemala City, Guatemala – another all-new international destination.
From its hub in Los Angeles, Alaska has the most flights to the most destinations across Latin America of any carrier, which includes up to 18 daily flights this winter to 12 cities throughout the region.
New Las Vegas flights to Mexico and San Luis Obispo
Las Vegas becomes a new Alaska gateway to two of Mexico’s most popular destinations from the West Coast: Cabo San Lucas and Puerto Vallarta. Both flights depart Las Vegas late in the morning for midday arrival. The new daily seasonal flight between San Luis Obispo and Las Vegas allows for connectivity with additional routes in the network and now offers an easy connection to Mexico for guests along California’s Central Coast.
Convenient nonstop between Palm Springs and New York JFK
This seasonal flight connects the Big Apple with sunny deserts. The convenient morning departure from New York allows flyers to arrive around lunchtime in Palm Springs – refreshed and ready to get out and soak in the sun.
Alaska has more flights to Palm Springs than any other airline.
New flights in Orange County
Alaska is now flying new daily seasonal routes between Orange County in Southern California to both Bozeman and Tucson. Bozeman offers access to wintertime adventures in Montana, and Tucson offers plenty of desert sunshine and warmth in Arizona.
