SEATTLE, WA – Alaska Airlines today announced it will start new nonstop service between San Diego and Hayden/Steamboat Springs, Colorado. Just in time for next season’s ski season, the seasonal service will begin Dec. 17, 2016, and run through March 25, 2017.

This represents an expansion of service beyond the nonstop flights operated between Seattle and Hayden/Steamboat Springs, and is a testament to the popularity of the area’s ski resort.
