Alaska Airlines has announced the sale of tickets for its new nonstop flights between Seattle and London Heathrow, set to commence on May 21, 2026. The service will operate daily year-round on the Boeing 787 Dreamliner, marking the airline’s fifth intercontinental destination from Seattle.

This expansion is part of Alaska Airlines’ strategy to enhance its global gateway in Seattle, offering passengers a reimagined travel experience with advanced onboard amenities.

The new route to London is priced from $699 (US$699) roundtrip, catering to both leisure and business travelers. The flight schedule is designed to maximize time in both cities, with departures from Seattle at 9:40 PM and arrivals in London at 3:05 PM the following day. The return flight departs London at 5:00 PM, arriving in Seattle at 6:50 PM.

Passengers will enjoy enhanced Business Class amenities, including lie-flat seats, enclosed suites, and multicourse dining. Premium Class and Main Cabin passengers will benefit from additional legroom, priority boarding, and complimentary meals and beverages. Alaska Airlines is also introducing ultrafast WiFi on its 787-9 aircraft by autumn 2026, free for Atmos Rewards members.

The expansion into the London market is facilitated by partnerships with American Airlines and British Airways, promising greater connectivity and value. Alaska Airlines plans to serve at least 12 intercontinental destinations from Seattle by 2030, with further routes to be announced. The airline currently operates flights to Rome, Reykjavik, Tokyo, and Seoul from its Seattle hub.
