Alaska Airlines will debut its first European route to Rome Fiumicino in May 2026, operated by Hawaiian Airlines’ Boeing 787-9s. This marks a key step in Alaska’s international growth strategy post its Hawaiian Airlines merger. As part of its vision to serve 12 long-haul destinations by 2030, the airline aims to position Seattle as a major global hub, expanding connectivity to Europe and enhancing its competitive edge in transatlantic travel.
