Aeromexico doesn't fly to PDX anymore....not sure about SEA.

Would love to see LAX or SFO-DTW, or at least more frequency for SEA-DTW. Probably would never happen out of SEA, with DL hubs at both ends.

SEA-YYZ seems one of the next most likely routes.

Yes to all of these. Connecting through SEA makes for some brutally early flights out of PDX for all three of these locations

On the realistic side:
LAX (or BUR) - PHX
LAX (or BUR) - AUS
LAX (or BUR) - DEN
LAX - MEX
LAX - ATL
LAX - MCO
BUR - SFO

On the less realistic for now side:
East coast cities to other east coast cities, or a domestic partner for earning at minimum.

PDX-DEN
PDX-IND
ANC-PDX (a red eye and early morning flight only)

Generally shift more to PDX rather than clog up SEA.

It's always fun when the FT VPs of Airline Network Planning make suggestions. But sure, I'll play along.

Things I think could actually happen at some point:

SEA-CLT
SFO-DFW
LAX-DFW
OAK-LAX
OAK-SAN
SJC-LAS
SAN-LAS
PDX-DEN
LAS-Hawaii*
PHX-Hawaii*
GEG-HNL* (seasonal, not every day)

*needs a 737Max

Are you insinuating that my proposal that Alaska fly to American Samoa from Hawaii isn’t based proven customer demand and the route somehow isn’t all-but-guaranteed to be a smashing financial success for a Seattle-based airline?!? The nerve!
