Alaska Airlines' expansion focuses on popular leisure destinations for winter getaways. The new routes include a mix of warm-weather destinations such as Mexico and cold-weather destinations for winter activities like skiing. This strategy is aimed at catering to leisure travelers and adapting to the current trend of decreased business travel.

Alaska Airlines' new winter destination is Vail, Colorado. The airline will serve the area's Eagle County Regional Airport (EGE) with three-times-weekly flights from San Diego and Seattle. This expansion is part of Alaska Airlines' strategy to cater to leisure travelers and connect them with popular winter destinations.

Alaska Airlines has announced 18 new routes for the upcoming winter season, offering service to sun-soaked international destinations and winter wonderland retreats5. The new routes will cater to both warm-weather escapes and winter activities, including popular ski destinations and theme park locations.
