Alaska Airlines Beefs Up Schedule at Seattle’s Newest Airport Paine Field
byDaniel McCarthy/
Alaska Airlines is continuing its commitment to the northwest U.S., and the west coast in general, with a slate of new flights from the Seattle area’s newest airport, Paine Field.
Starting June 17, Alaska will boost its schedule from 16 peak daily nonstop departures to 18, its full allotment of departures at the airport.
时间表将包括每天不停地往旧金山的日程,该日期将于5月19日早些时候开始,以及前往博伊西,拉斯维加斯,橙色乡村,棕榈泉,凤凰城,圣地亚哥等的出发。阿拉斯加的大部分服务都将在其姊妹运营商Horizon Air上飞行。
阿拉斯加航空公司的网络和联盟副总裁布雷特·卡特林(Brett Catlin)表示:“潘恩菲尔德(Paine Field)是我们的客人带着美丽的设施,紧凑的尺寸和易于导航的普吉特声音区域的流行选择 - 码头感觉很豪华。”
“我们有许多居住在西雅图以北的里程计划成员和精英传单。我们希望提供吸引他们的目的地,同时也是南方可能交通拥堵的方便替代品。”beplay银行卡
The airport, one of the newest airports not just in the northwest but in the country, reopened in 2019 with a brand new, state-of-the-art terminal with two departure gates, about 20 miles north of downtown Seattle. It is easier to reach for many travelers, especially for those who live north of Seattle and can typically spend 90 minutes in city traffic getting to the airport.
Pain field has a storied history—it briefly had civilian flights in the late 1930s before being used for military and industrial purposes. Boeing also used the airfield starting in the 1960s; the first 747 took off from the facility in 1969. However, several local groups passed resolutions opposing any commercial flights out of the airport. The matter inevitably landed in court, and the legal battle was only resolved in 2016 when a federal court denied the opponents the chance to appeal the reopening.
