Alaska heading back to Bellingham
 

Alaska Airlines Announces New Bellingham-Las Vegas Nonstop Flights for $59 One Way - Yahoo! Finance

Looks like we're defending some turf from Allegiant!

Should be interesting.

Alaska sells its entire fleet of old beater aircraft for a tiny fraction of the cost of one new plane. Someone buys the old beaters for a song. Then Alaska tries to sell $59 tickets while making payments on 65 million dollar planes flying against their old beaters. Passengers don't care if they are flying a beater or a new plane. No place to figure that out on Expedia.com
