SEATTLE — Alaska Airlines (AS) announced five new routes from Seattle-Tacoma International Airport (SEA), with service scheduled to begin in spring and summer 2027. The additions comprise four year-round domestic routes and a seasonal link to Guadalajara, Mexico (GDL).
Daily flights to Charlotte (CLT) and Norfolk (ORF) are scheduled to start June 10. Jacksonville (JAX) and Des Moines (DSM) follow June 24, also daily. Guadalajara begins March 18 with three weekly flights, with the seasonal service scheduled through August 9.
Four Domestic Cities Join the Network
Alaska says Jacksonville, Norfolk and Des Moines will gain their first nonstop links to Seattle. Des Moines also marks the airline's entry into Iowa. The carrier puts its planned Seattle nonstop network at 119 destinations following the additions.
For travelers in Jacksonville, Norfolk and Des Moines, the new flights remove the need to change aircraft to reach Seattle. Guadalajara passengers will have fewer weekly departure choices, with the announced service limited to the spring and summer season.
Tickets are on sale. Alaska specifies Boeing 737 aircraft for Guadalajara in its announcement but does not identify aircraft variants for the four domestic services.
