Just as the long days of summer have engulfed the state of Alaska, Alaska Airlines launched seasonal nonstop service today, Jun. 13, 2024 between Anchorage and New York JFK. It’s the only nonstop service between the two airports. Flights are available for purchase at alaskaair.com for daily flights through Aug. 19, 2024.
Our new nonstop between the Big Apple and the Great Land offers New Yorkers an easier option to get away and enjoy the wilds of Alaska with its countless outdoor adventures, rich Alaska Native culture, wild Alaska seafood, jaw-dropping scenery and history-filled towns.
“Alaskans love travel options and love them even more when they include nonstop flights,” said Marilyn Romano, regional vice president of Alaska for Alaska Airlines. “Our new service to New York JFK is a perfect addition to our flight schedule for Alaskans wanting some adventure in one of the world’s most dynamic cities, and for New Yorkers eager for new experiences in our great state.”
At 3,385 miles, the Anchorage-New York JFK route is the longest in their network. This flight is scheduled this service with their new 737-8 aircraft. It has the longest range of any plane in the fleet.
