Alaska Airlines Adds New Flights to Austin, Atlanta, Seattle, and Others

Alaska Airlines is the go-to airline for flights around Alaska and the Pacific Northwest, but they’ve recently added a southern flair to their route list.

Flights are now available to Austin, Atlanta and Houston from Pacific Northwest cities, such as Seattle, Spokane, Portland. And in honor of the new routes, the airline has also discounted fares to these cities for a limited time.

Book by Nov. 11 and travel between Oct. 25 and March 10, 2010. Blackout dates are listed around Thanksgiving, Christmas and New Year’s Day, so expect higher rates then.  We searched for a flight between Seattle and Atlanta in early November and found a round-trip flight for $239.20 with taxes included.

Prices are typically higher on weekends, but use the fare calendar to search for the best price.

Sample fare are each way and don’t include taxes and fees:
Eugene to Houston from $154
Portland to Houston from $109
Seattle to Austin from $119
Spokane to Atlanta from $139
