SEATTLE, WASHINGTON — Alaska Airlines keeps growing in the dynamic city where it has long been the largest carrier. The airline is now launching daily nonstop service between Boise and Chicago O'Hare, and Boise and Austin along with new nonstop routes between Boise and Pullman-Moscow Regional Airport in Washington, and Boise and Phoenix.



"Our guests are showing us how excited they are about our new service to Chicago and Austin from Boise with strong bookings throughout the summer months," said Brett Catlin, vice president of network and alliances at Alaska Airlines. "Our new year-round route bridging Boise and Pullman-Moscow will offer a crucial link to that area's two major universities, and the seasonal nonstop to Phoenix is another terrific way to quickly escape to sunshine and warmth in the desert this winter."

"The Boise Airport is grateful that Alaska Airlines continues to improve connectivity for residents of the Treasure Valley," said Boise Airport Director Rebecca Hupp. "With Idaho's vast rural geography, regional flights are an important link in our transportation system. I'm confident the nonstop service to Pullman-Moscow matches the needs of our community, and I'm thrilled Alaska is connecting two important regions of the state again."

"Nonstop air service between Moscow and Boise improves access for our Vandal families to engage in the quality education offered at our residential campus," said University of Idaho President Scott Green. "It's our goal to break down barriers to access and do our part to improve the go-on rate of our state. This flight is also vital to all of Idaho's residents to participate most fully in government and business."
