Alaska Airlines is currently undergoing a global expansion, as the airline is increasingly operating long haul service out of Seattle-Tacoma Airport (SEA), with the plan being to operate 12 long haul routes by 2030.
With Alaska Air Group now also owning Hawaiian Airlines, we’ve known that the company is investing in its lounge network, including opening a new lounge in Seattle that’s intended to up the bar. We’ve now learned more details about what we can expect from the lounge, and it’s pretty exciting.
In this post:
In a way, this sounds similar to the new Delta lounge complex in Seattle, which includes a Delta Sky Club on the bottom floor, and a Delta One Lounge on the top floor. Alaska knows what the competition is doing, so I have to imagine the new lounge will be on Delta’s level, or may even possibly beat it.
Bottom line
Alaska Airlines has finally revealed some additional details about its new lounge that’s coming to Seattle, which is expected to open in late 2027. The lounge will be 41,000 square feet with seating for around 700 people, so it’ll be (by far) the carrier’s biggest lounge ever, and will also be the largest lounge at the airport.
