Alaska Airlines Merger Could Benefit Montanans

We could see an exciting new route come to Montana airports soon.

Montana Airport News

There’s always something happening at a Montana airport.

Montana airports are loved, and it makes sense.

Travelers love the easy access, beauty, and how relaxing airports in Big Sky Country provide.

The Bozeman Yellowstone International Airport might see constant news about new flights or updates, but airports in Missoula, Billings, and Kalispell are on their way up.

Missoula’s airport announced they will allow folks into the terminals to watch their loved ones take off or enjoy a meal.

Something new happens at a Montana airport every week, but we might see exciting news from an airline popular with locals.

Alaska Airlines

Alaska Airlines is a massive West Coast airline that operates several flights out of Montana.

With affordable flights to exciting locations on the West Coast, many Montanans take advantage of their daily flights.

Alaska Airlines has been making moves, and we might see some new routes come to Big Sky Country soon.

Alaska Airlines Merger

The Points Guy reports Alaska Airlines could be acquiring Hawaiian Airlines within the next few months.

What does that mean for Montanans? Many things.

First, we could see the first direct flight from Montana to Hawaii. Imagine escaping the harsh winters to a beautiful tropical paradise.

This merger opens the opportunity for cheaper flights out of Montana to Asia and the Pacific Islands.

Who wouldn’t want to visit the other side of the world for an affordable price? That’s what this merger could do.

When this merger becomes official, Montanans could be in a fantastic position for travel.
