Alaska Air Unit to Add Seattle-Columbus Service in 2019
Read MoreHide Full Article
Alaska Air Group, Inc.’s (ALK - Free Report) wholly owned subsidiary Alaska Airlines has announced a new daily non-stop service between Seattle-Tacoma International Airport and John Glenn Columbus International Airport in Ohio. Operations on the route are expected to begin Mar 7, next year. Notably, this non-stop service would be the only one operating between the Pacific Northwest and Central Ohio. Alaska Airlines’ A320 aircraft will ply on the said route.
The latest expansion initiative lays an emphasis on the company’s commitment to continue expanding across the West Coast. Early last month, the carrier launched a nonstop service between Mineta San Jose International Airport and New York’s John F. Kennedy International Airport. In yet another West Coast expansion endeavor, the carrier in June, announced a new nonstop service between Sacramento, CA and Kona on Hawaii's Big Island. The single service connecting both places is expected to be operational on Dec 20.
The carrier at present operates 31 flights daily from the West Coast to 10 Midwest cities including Chicago, Detroit, Indianapolis, Kansas City, Milwaukee, Minneapolis, Oklahoma City, Omaha, St. Louis and Wichita. Alaska Airlines serves 89 destinations from its main West Coast hub at Seattle. With the addition of Columbus in spring 2019, the tally would be 90.
Tickets on the Seattle-Columbus roundtrip flights are currently on sale.
Shares of GATX, Trinity and SkyWest have rallied more than 40%, 25% and 86%, respectively, in a year.
Best Electric Car Stock? You'll Never Guess It.
Zacks Research has released a report that may shock many investors. One stock stands out as the best way to invest in the surge to electric cars. And it's not the one you may think!
Much like petroleum 150 years ago, lithium battery power is set to shake the world, creating millionaires and reshaping geo-politics. Soon electric vehicles (EVs) may be cheaper than gas guzzlers. Some are already reaching 265 miles on a single charge. With battery prices plummeting and charging stations set to multiply, revenues that were already at $31 billion in 2016 are expected to blast to over $67 billion by the end of 2022.
