In 2024, we saw the opening of a stunning new terminal at Portland International Airport (PDX). I haven’t been yet, but it truly looks like the most impressive terminal in the country. The one thing missing at the time was a new Alaska Lounge, to add capacity, and reflect the carrier’s new design concept. So along those lines, there’s now a positive update.
As it’s described, the new Alaska Lounge Portland has a warm, thoughtfully designed Pacific Northwest aesthetic, featuring high, open ceilings, bringing in a lot of natural light, and terminal views. The lounge also boasts loungers, phone booths, a fireplace, and a wooden Mt. Hood mural.
The lounge of course has a full service bar, barista coffee, and a buffet with a selection of food. You can find the Alaska Lounge access rules here, and below you can find the first pictures the airline has shared of the facility.
Alaska has three more exciting lounges on the way
For an airline of its size, Alaska is investing very nicely in its lounge network. With the opening of the new Alaska Lounge Seattle, there are three more Alaska Air Group lounges on the way:
Beyond that, we can expect Alaska Air Group to continue investing in its lounge network, with new locations opening in Seattle, San Diego, and Honolulu, in 2027 and 2028.
