Are you planning on heading to warm beach destinations next Winter? A major American airline has created new routes to the Caribbean and Mexico you should consider.
Alaska Airlines recently announced new non-stop flights to Nassau, Los Cabos, and Puerto Vallarta from Seattle, Los Angeles, and Las Vegas.
Four new seasonal routes will take passengers from winters on the west coast to paradise destinations with turquoise waters and white sand starting this December.
Introductory fares start at a very low price, so those who book first will get the best prices.
Of course, more American airlines are offering great options to other sunny destinations this year, but here’s what travelers should know about Alaska Airlines’s new routes:
What Are The New Four Routes?
Alaska Airlines is flying to the Bahamas for the first time and mentioned it proudly in the press release: “We’ve added our first-ever flights to the Bahamas with nonstops from both Los Angeles and Seattle”.
The carrier also increased services to Mexico as customers keep showing high interest in Mexican beach destinations.

The new 737-9 aircraft—a recent addition to the fleet— will operate the Nassau route as these planes allow the carrier to fly longer distances, and the routes to Mexico will be operated by the aircraft E-175.
Recent Updates On Destinations
The Bahamas is always an exciting destination for American travelers as it tends to surpass expectations.
That’s why the low-cost carrier JetBlue has also included new routes to this destination, and a few months ago, Disney Cruise Line announced a new exclusive island in the country that will be added to its itinerary there next summer.
The Bahama Archipelago keeps getting more popular, and Mexico is not lagging behind either.
While there are many fascinating cities and the Mexican culture is quite vast and rich, American travelers seem to never get enough of the coast.
Alaska Airlines is adding new routes on the Pacific coast to places with spectacular resorts and beaches: the perfect winter escape!
One of these Pacific destinations, Puerto Vallarta, has been improving security to keep travelers safe and happy, making resorts the safest places in Mexico.
For those looking for luxurious experiences and a truly relaxing vacation, Los Cabos is one of the best destinations.
The Gem of the Mexican Pacific is America’s new favorite sunny destination for its stunning nature, amazing wellness centers, and great cultural experiences.
