We offer the only nonstop service connecting
Alaska and New York JFK for
summertime adventures; we'll have the most nonstop destinations
ever this summer from Anchorage
SEATTLE, June 13,
2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Just as the long days of summer
have engulfed the state of Alaska,
Alaska Airlines launched seasonal nonstop service today between
Anchorage and New York JFK. It's
the only nonstop service between the two airports. Flights are
available for purchase at alaskaair.com for daily flights through
Aug. 19.
Our new nonstop between the Big Apple and the Great Land offers
New Yorkers an easier option to get away and enjoy the wilds of
Alaska with its countless outdoor
adventures, rich Alaska Native culture, wild Alaska seafood, jaw-dropping scenery and
history-filled towns.
"Alaskans love travel options and love them even more when they
include nonstop flights," said Marilyn
Romano, regional vice president of Alaska for Alaska Airlines. "Our new service
to New York JFK is a perfect addition to our flight schedule for
Alaskans wanting some adventure in one of the world's most dynamic
cities, and for New Yorkers eager for new experiences in our great
state."
At 3,385 miles, our Anchorage-New York JFK route is the longest
in our network. We've scheduled this service with our new 737-8
aircraft. It has the longest range of any plane in our fleet.
