Alaska Airlines Eyeing European Flights in 2026
Alaska Airlines is looking to launch flights to Europe. The airline’s Chief Executive Officer Ben Minicucci said that the carrier is eyeing service to Europe in 2026, following its recent venture into the long-haul market thanks to its merger with Hawaiian Airlines.
Just recently Alaska revealed new service between Seattle and two destinations in Asia, Seoul and Tokyo Narita, using Hawaiian’s Airbus A330 fleet.
During a Wings Club event in New York last week, Minicucci announced, “Europe is definitely on the radar for 2026.”
Minicucci did not mention any specific destinations in Europe during its latest comments. But based on its December investor day presentation, London, Paris and Rome are the top three markets.
Minicucci said that Alaska “can go toe-to-toe” with Delta Air Lines, which also used Seattle as one of its hubs.
