FORT MYERS, Fla. — The Lee County Port Authority announced Alaska Airlines will be coming to the Southwest Florida International Airport this fall.

Alaska Airlines will bring the first nonstop service from Los Angeles International Airport (LAX) and Seattle-Tacoma International Airport (SEA) to Southwest Florida International Airport (RSW) on Nov. 20, 2020.

Both flights to LAX and SEA will operate four times weekly on a 737 aircraft.

We will be extremely pleased to welcome Alaska Airlines to Southwest Florida International Airport this fall. Not only is it exciting to have a new air carrier in our market, but they will offer flights for the first time from RSW to Los Angeles and Seattle, These flights give our community something they have wanted for a long time, nonstop service to the west coast of the United States.
Ben Siegel, acting executive director for the Lee County Port Authority
