Winter Ski and Sun Destinations

The airline is expanding access to renowned ski destinations, including inaugural service to Vail, Colorado from San Diego and Seattle.

Winter sports enthusiasts will also benefit from new nonstop flights. These connect Los Angeles to Kelowna for central British Columbia’s ski resorts. Further routes include San Diego to Reno for easy Lake Tahoe access.

Adventure seekers can take advantage of new winter-seasonal service between Boise and Bozeman, a Yellowstone National Park gateway.

In addition, year-round flights between Boise and Santa Ana, near California’s most popular theme park are also available.

The airline is also launching routes from Boise and Sacramento to Orlando. This seeks to cater to those seeking warmer climates and theme park experiences.
