Alaska Airlines is expanding where they fly in Latin America with the addition of daily, year-round service between Los Angeles and Guatemala City, Guatemala—an all-new destination for Alaska Airlines.

Alaska Airlines has also added new flights from both San Diego and Chicago O’Hare to Ixtapa-Zihuatanejo, a popular resort destination along Mexico’s Pacific Coast, as the airline increases their seasonal leisure routes for wintertime travel. Flights are available for purchase now at alaskaair.com for service that begins this December.

These new flights build on Alaska's network strength across Latin America. From Alaska Airline's hub in Los Angeles, Alaska Airlines has the most flights to the most destinations across Latin America of any carrier – which includes up to 18 daily nonstops this winter to 12 cities throughout the region.   

New international service

Guatemala City is filled with history and architecture. Outside the capital, there’s plenty to explore. The town of Antigua boasts Baroque-style buildings, farm-to-table restaurants and a showcase of art and textiles. Lake Atitlán, formed inside a massive volcanic crater, is a popular destination with its blue waters, stunning hillsides and quaint villages that ring the lake. For adventure seekers, Guatemala is a nation of volcanoes with several that are accessible for hiking and exploring. 

Alaska Airlines' new service to Guatemala City increases the airline's international destinations. They offer flights from LAX and SEA to neighboring Belize, and serve the San Jose and Liberia airports in Costa Rica. This December, Alaska Airlines will fly from their West Coast gateways to Mexico, Costa Rica, Belize, Guatemala and the Bahamas.

ICYMI: Alaska Airlines  announced new seasonal routes from LAX and SEA to Nassau in late June with service beginning on December 15.

Maybe Mexico will be calling your clients this winter. Alaska Airlines will have four peak-day nonstops to Mexico from San Diego when the new service to Zihuatanejo begins, giving the Southern California flyers even more options when deciding where to catch some rest and relaxation. The weekly flight between Chicago O’Hare and Zihuatanejo is in partnership with ALG Vacations.
