Delta and Alaska compete at Seattle‑Tacoma as Alaska expands long‑haul service

Delta Air Lines and Alaska Airlines both operate at Seattle‑Tacoma International Airport and are rivals for travelers, with Alaska operating roughly twice as many flights as Delta at the airport.

Alaska has begun an international long‑haul strategy, adding Boeing 787 Dreamliners, launching routes to Asia and Europe, and acquiring Hawaiian Airlines, and it aims to serve 15 long‑haul destinations from Seattle by the end of the decade.
