Share

Alaska Airlines has launched a new daily nonstop service between Seattle and Tokyo Narita, operated by Hawaiian Airlines’ Airbus A330 aircraft, marking Alaska’s entry into widebody international flying.

This route, along with upcoming flights to Seoul Incheon in September, is part of a broader plan to turn Seattle into a major global gateway, with at least 12 international destinations by 2030.

The service features three cabin classes, premium onboard amenities, free high-speed Starlink Wi-Fi, and meals with Japanese and Hawaiian influences. The collaboration also enhances loyalty benefits, allowing linked status between Alaska Mileage Plan and HawaiianMiles members.
