This makes Alaska Airlines the only carrier to offer a direct route between these two key destinations. Tickets for this new route will soon be available at www.alaskaair.com.
This new service, approved by the U.S. Department of Transportation under the Federal Aviation Administration Reauthorization Act of 2024, marks another milestone in Alaska’s 40-year history of serving San Diego. The airline, which has been connecting guests to DCA since 2001, already offers nonstop routes to Washington, D.C., from Seattle, Portland, San Francisco, and Los Angeles.

Ben Minicucci, CEO of Alaska Airlines, stated:
“We are pleased the DOT sees the value of Alaska providing direct service between San Diego and DCA, and we thank the many leaders, local businesses, and organizations who supported our bid. This new route reflects our commitment to San Diego, home of the nation’s largest military community, and offers our guests a seamless travel option to our nation’s capital.”
Todd Gloria, Mayor of San Diego, commented:
“Today is a great day for the San Diego region with the announcement of a new, nonstop flight to Washington, D.C.’s Reagan National Airport. This flight will further connect our growing defense, research, and innovation economies to our leaders in the Capitol. Securing this flight was a team effort by our partners from Alaska Airlines, the San Diego County Regional Airport Authority, and our congressional delegation.”

Alongside its Global Partners, Alaska Airlines provides one-stop service from SAN to over 330 destinations worldwide, further enhancing connectivity for both business and leisure travelers.
Kimberly J. Becker, President and CEO of San Diego County Regional Airport Authority, added:
“San Diego has been the largest origin-destination market without service to Reagan National Airport. This new nonstop route will greatly enhance the connectivity between these two strategic regions for business and leisure passengers.”
