New Routes from Alaska Airlines, Spirit and Breeze
We have seen some major schedule cuts from major airlines, but there are also new routes and old ones that are resuming. Just in the last few days, Alaska Airlines, Spirit Airlines and Avelo Airlines have announced new additions.
Alaska Airlines adds nonstop flight between Everett and Anchorage
Alaska Airlines is connecting the newest commercial airport in the Seattle area with another one of our main hubs. New daily, nonstop service between Everett and Anchorage will begin on Nov. 30, 2022. Tickets for flights between Paine Field-Snohomish County Airport and the state of Alaska’s largest city are available for purchase now on alaskaair.com.
With the new nonstop from Everett, operated by Alaska Airlines sister airline Horizon Air, Anchorage becomes the farthest destination and longest flight we’ll serve from that airport, and it’s also our first route to fly north from it. On the operations side, Horizon began operating a new 74,000 square foot hangar and maintenance facility on the Paine Field property this year that can accommodate up to four E175 aircraft at a time.

Spirit Resumes Flights Between South Florida and Nicaragua
Spirit Airlines today announced the resumption of its daily, nonstop service connecting Managua (MGA) and Fort Lauderdale (FLL). Spirit’s return to the market plays a pivotal role in offering both convenience and affordability for family and friends to reconnect with one another, and the service provides opportunities to explore Nicaragua’s historic sites, vibrant culture and natural beauty.
The daily, nonstop service to FLL starts November 30 and offers connections to 26 cities across Spirit’s network.

Avelo Expands Michigan Service
Avelo Airlines announced today it is expanding service from Lansing and Kalamazoo with the addition of a second nonstop Florida destination – Fort Myers. Avelo is the only airline offering the Southwest and Mid-Michigan regions affordable, convenient and nonstop access to The Sunshine State.
Introductory low one-way fares to Fort Myers’ Southwest Florida International Airport (RSW) from Lansing’s Capital Region International Airport (LAN) and Kalamazoo / Battle Creek International Airport (AZO) starting at $79* are available at AveloAir.com.
Avelo will operate American-made Boeing Next-Generation 737s at both airports. Avelo is the only airline utilizing large mainline jetliners at AZO and LAN in contrast to the much smaller regional aircraft operated by the other carriers serving these airports.
