Alaska Airlines and Virgin America are expanding in the Lone Star State, with new service to Dallas Love Field from four West Coast airports.
With new routes between Love Field and Seattle (SEA), San Diego (SAN), Portland, Ore. (PDX), and San José, Calif. (SJC), the combined airline will service eight destinations from Love Field with 18 daily peak-season departures, a 40 percent increase.
“These new routes offer Dallas business flyers complete West Coast utility from one of the fastest-growing corporate centers in the country, one that is home to 54 Fortune 500 companies,” said John Kirby, vice president of capacity planning, Alaska Airlines. “Guests flying between the West Coast and both of North Texas’s major airports will enjoy Alaska and Virgin America’s award-winning service and convenient schedules.”
Four months into its merger with Virgin America, Alaska Airlines announced significant growth from the West Coast, adding 37 new markets. The new routes bring the airline’s total peak season flights to and from five Texas airports to 59. Serviced airports include Austin (AUS), Dallas/Fort Worth (DFW), Dallas Love Field (DAL), Houston (IAH) and San Antonio (SAT).
Three-class jets will service the four new routes. The Embraer 175 jet will fly daily to Portland, San Diego, San José and Seattle. One of the two daily flights to Seattle will be operated by Virgin America using an Airbus A320 aircraft.
All customers on the new flight will enjoy Free Chat, free movies, premium food and beverages, WiFi and advance seat selection.
