SEATTLE, Nov. 12, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Alaska Airlines is making its hometown hub even stronger with five new nonstop routes to high-demand destinations in 2027, giving Seattle travelers more options to travel without a connection.

For Jacksonville, Norfolk and Des Moines, the service will mark the first-ever nonstop connection to Seattle.

The additions will give Seattle travelers more destinations to reach nonstop across the country and into Mexico, bringing Alaska’s network from the Emerald City to 119 nonstop destinations.
