Alaska Airlines plans to operate nine daily departures from Paine Field using a fuel-efficient fleet
of Boeing 737 and Embraer 175 aircraft. This new service will deliver all the comfort guests
expect on an Alaska Airlines flight, while taking hundreds of cars off of I-5 every day.
“Alaska understands the local market, so having our Seattle-based airline be the first to provide
scheduled passenger service from Everett just confirms the value commercial flights will bring to
the local economy,” Everett Mayor Ray Stephanson said. “Alaska is an industry leader in
service and reliability, and our citizens and businesses will benefit from having such a
convenient travel option right here in Everett.”
Led by Propeller Airports and Snohomish County, construction of the state of the art terminal is
slated to begin in June. Alaska plans to announce routes, flight schedules and begin selling
tickets early next year.
“Propeller couldn’t be prouder than to partner with the hometown airline on this new service. As
Alaska does everyday, our goal is to put the customer first, making the travel experience truly
exceptional,” said Brett Smith, CEO of Propeller Airports.
