These have to be O/D routes, which is why I think you will see places like the major California airports, PDX, LAS, HNL, and maybe ANC. I doubt GEG will be one of the routes, but I could be wrong.

I'm thinking something along the lines of 2X PDX. 2X LAX, 2X Bay Area, 1X LAS, 1X ANC, 1X HNL
I'd guess they'll shift some SEA frequencies (iirc there are a couple of ~90 min intervals during the day with three LAX and three PDX departures, so pulling one trip out of each of those would seem to make sense), but everything else will likely be in addition to existing SEA service

Yeah I'm thinking SFO/LAX/LAS/PDX/ANC as well. Living in S. King County, I will still prefer SEA over PAE. However, I'm sure those in Seattle (or north of Seattle) will prefer PAE if they drive their car (or take Lyft/Uber/etc.).

My guess is on 2x to Portland 2x to Bay Area, 2x to LA, 1x to LAS, 1x to ANC and from there idk (SMF, GEG, HNL, DEN?)
Will be super convenient for those Boeing people up in Everett; avoiding peak I-5 traffic would be amazing

I got to fly into PAE on a 757-300 when I participated in the MegaDo event back in November 2010. For my Snohomish county friends, I can see PAE flights being a game-changer.

The longer the flight the more services are required, so you need to line up all the food service vendors to make it work, for example.
My bet is it would be 2x Portland, 2x SFO, 2x LAX, 1x SAN, 1x LAS, and maybe 1x ORD if it is 9 flights.
I can't see Hawaii being included, but you never know.

I'd hope for a 1x connection to SEA but idk if that makes any sense

ANC, HNL, 2x LAX, 3xPDX, SFO, JFK.
That's an interesting theoretical start
