Ways To Europe: Alaska Airlines To Launch Seasonal Nonstop Flights To Paris & Athens In 2027

Alaska Airlines says it will launch seasonal nonstop service from Seattle-Tacoma (SEA) to Athens and Paris in 2027, continuing its push from a primarily West Coast carrier toward a more global network. The routes start next May: SEA to Athens (ATH) begins May 12, 2027, three times a week through October, using Boeing 787-9s. SEA to Paris Charles de Gaulle (CDG) starts May 25, 2027 with five weekly flights, also running seasonally through October. At 6,197 miles (9,972 km), Athens would become Alaska’s longest-ever route, and its first nonstop to Greece’s capital from Seattle.
