Alaska Airlines to fly Seattle-Salt Lake City

SEATTLE (AP) - Alaska Airlines plans to start service between Seattle and Salt Lake City on April 4 with two nonstop flights a day.

Vice president Andrew Harrison says a Seattle-Salt Lake City route has been a top request from customers for more than a decade.

The airline operates an all-Boeing 737 fleet.

Seattle-based Alaska and its regional airline Horizon serve 95 cities, mostly on the West Coast.
