Alaska Airlines Gives More of the Plane to Its Best Seats

· 1 min read

Alaska Airlines is adding business class seats throughout its fleet. It is also launching premium economy, a new cabin between the main cabin and the front of the plane. For travelers who think a trip starts when they sit down, not when they check in, this is an airline putting its money into comfort. Alaska is going ahead even though fuel costs more than it did.

With reporting from Skift.
