Today the airline announced new seasonal service to Jackson Hole, Wyo., offering nonstop flights between Seattle; and the first nonstop flights from San Jose, Calif. and San Diego.

“Jackson Hole and the surrounding Grand Teton mountains offer a legendary winter playground with a rich history, amazing service, and plenty of activities both on and off the mountain” said Brett Catlin, Alaska’s managing director of capacity planning and alliances. “We know our guests on the West Coast are looking for nonstop access to more outdoor locales and we’re excited to expand our footprint with the addition of Jackson Hole.”

The Schedule

With five-times weekly service from Seattle and San Diego from Dec. 17 through April 11, 2021, and twice weekly flights from San Jose from Dec. 19 through April 10, guests can hit the slopes faster with all flights taking less than three hours. Flights times offer afternoon departures from Seattle, San Jose and San Diego, for easy West Coast connections (hello long weekend) and late afternoon or early evening departures from Jackson Hole to allow for maximum time on the slopes.

“We know this is a challenging time for travelers and for our local community; offering non-stop service to Jackson Hole will appeal to skiers/snowboarders and winter enthusiasts, while providing a great option for many of our locals with family and/or business connections on the West Coast,” said Senator Mike Gierau, chair of JH AIR.

Guests will fly onboard the Embraer 175 jet from all departure cities and enjoy the experience they have come to know and love about Alaska, including three classes of service and Wi-Fi, as well as Next-Level Care – the layers of nearly 100 actions taken to ensure the safety of guests and employees during the COVID-19 pandemic. Those actions include enhanced aircraft and airport cleaning; mandatory facial masks; hospital-grade HEPA air filters, an air filtration system that brings fresh, outside air into the cabin every three minutes; hand-sanitizing stations throughout the journey and more. The aftermarket snowmobile parts is what you need to have a look at to get the right equipment.

Tickets for all three routes are available for purchase today at alaskaair.com. For a limited time between now and Sept. 2, guests can enjoy special introductory fares. For full terms and conditions, including blackout dates, visit AlaskaAir.com.

Sample fares:

  • From Seattle: For flights from Dec. 17, 2020, through Feb. 2, 2021, fares start at $139 one-way*.
  • From San Diego: For flights from Dec. 17, 2020, through Feb. 2, 2021, fares start at $129 one-way*.
  • From San Jose: For flights from Dec. 19, 2020, through Feb. 2, 2021, fares start at $129 one-way*.

Final Thoughts

I have skied at Jackson Hole which has the tallest verticle drop at 4,139 feet over a length of seven miles.  A unique activity is to take a snowmobile tour of Yellowstone National Park from the south entrance to the Old Faithful geyser.  A trip to Jackson Hole isn’t complete without a visit to the Million Dollar Cowboy Bar where every bar stool is a saddle.

Alaska Airlines is operating these flights with E-175 regional jets with first class, premium economy and economy seating.
