Alaska Airlines adds four new cities to Seattle network, plus seasonal nonstop route to Guadalajara, Mexico

Alaska Airlines is adding five new nonstop routes to high-demand destinations in 2027, giving Seattle travelers more options to travel without a connection. Beginning next spring and summer, guests can fly nonstop to Charlotte, North Carolina; Jacksonville, Florida; Norfolk, Virginia; Des Moines, Iowa; and Guadalajara, Mexico. 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. The new service marks Alaska’s biggest summer launch yet in Seattle, strengthening the hub with new destinations and more convenient options across the network.

Four new destinations across the United States

Alaska will launch daily, year-round service from Seattle to Charlotte and Norfolk on June 10, 2027, followed by daily, year-round service to Jacksonville and Des Moines on June 24, 2027.

The four domestic routes invite guests to discover more of the country with Alaska Airlines. Charlotte opens the door to one of the Southeast’s fastest-growing cities and a major oneworld hub. Norfolk brings Seattle closer to coastal Virginia, from its proud military community to the beaches just beyond the airport. Jacksonville creates a new nonstop bridge to Florida’s northeast coast, while Des Moines marks an Alaska first: our debut service to Iowa.

A new nonstop link to Guadalajara

From its celebrated food and arts scene to its deep cultural traditions, Guadalajara gives Pacific Northwest travelers a vibrant new destination to explore, and Alaska’s new nonstop makes getting there easier than ever. Seasonal service begins March 18, 2027, and operates three times weekly through Aug. 9, 2027, aboard Boeing 737 aircraft.
