Summary
Alaska Airlines will add two nonstop Seattle routes—to Athens and Paris—extending its international expansion and deepening its long-haul push from its Pacific Northwest hub.
May 2027 service is part of a plan to build Seattle into a 12-route intercontinental gateway by 2030, with the new flights operated by Boeing 787 Dreamliners.
The additions lift Alaska's total nonstop long-haul Seattle network to seven routes; Athens will become the airline's longest flight.
Athens is scheduled to start May 12, 2027, three times weekly, and Paris on May 25, 2027, five times weekly, with introductory roundtrip fares from $999.
