Alaska Airlines Adds Daily Spokane–Orange County Route

Alaska Airlines is enhancing regional connectivity and expanding travel flexibility by launching a new daily nonstop flight between Spokane International Airport and John Wayne Airport in Orange County. This strategic route directly responds to growing passenger demand for seamless West Coast travel, offering both business and leisure travelers a faster, more convenient link between Inland Northwest and Southern California. Alaska Airlines is strengthening its West Coast route network by launching a new daily, year-round nonstop service between Spokane, Washington, and Orange County, California. Starting January 7, 2025, travelers will gain direct access between Spokane International Airport (GEG) and John Wayne Airport (SNA), significantly improving regional connectivity and convenience for both business and leisure passengers. The new route marks a major milestone for Spokane’s air service development, connecting one of its most underserved travel markets in Southern California. Until now, passengers flying between Spokane and Orange County often relied on connecting flights through other cities, leading to longer travel times and reduced efficiency. This nonstop route eliminates those barriers and reflects a broader trend in the aviation industry to meet growing passenger demand with more point-to-point connections.
