Alaska Airlines has launched two new daily, year-round nonstop routes, the carrier announced Friday. One is between Honolulu and Paine Field Airport in Everett, Wash., located about 25 miles north of downtown Seattle. The other is between Portland, Ore., and Miami.
With the new Miami service, Alaska now flies to 52 nonstop destinations from Portland, and Miami is the fourth Florida city served nonstop from there, joining Fort Lauderdale, Orlando and Tampa, according to the carrier.
Commenting on the new Hawaii route, “with this new flight, we’ll fly a combined six nonstops a day to the two Seattle area airports from Oahu, providing our leisure and business travelers with a variety of flight times that work best for them,” Alaska director of sales, community and public relations in Hawaii Daniel Chun said in a statement.
