Wow!

Anyone know who's operating these flights?

Edit: Nevermind, I read the AS page not the OP link. Mix of AS and OO.

Wow. I love this. I would have used these flights extensively over the past several years. Where are they taking the planes from?

If you read the OP link it clearly states after the schedules of the city pairs, "Service will be mixed between Alaska Airline mainline 737s and Horizon Air CRJs operated by SkyWest. All Horizon Air service includes Horizon’s award winning service and even better yet, free beer and wine!"

How about SAN-SJC? WN owns this route, has gotten a bit too greedy, ripe for the picking...

Yeah, unfortunately, they didn't announce it. Oh well!

DL will be big pissed with AS again. They will get more tougher competitive against DL.

With hubs like Detroit and Atlanta you'll get shanked in there.
