I just noticed that starting in May 2025, Alaska is switching from 5 flights a day SEA-HNL to just 2 flights a day. It looks like 3 of the flights are switching to Hawaiian airlines metal.

I recently moved from Honolulu to Seattle and my partner is still in Honolulu. SEA-HNL is basically the only route that matters to me and it appears that they are nerfing it. It's probably going to be next to impossible to get upgraded on SEA-HNL after they go from 5 down to 2. I'm really sad to see that Alaska is switching routes to Hawaiian metal to reduce upgrade capacity to Hawaii.

Not to be dramatic, but this change very well might kill Alaska mileage plan for me. 😭😭
