Alaska Airlines is enhancing our popular Lounge network with expansive, modern spaces designed to redefine how guests relax before takeoff.

Their latest investment is coming to San Diego – a key, growing hub for Alaska Airlines and Hawaiian Airlines.

As part of a multi-billion-dollar investment in infrastructure across their network to provide a remarkable travel experience, the Alaska Lounge in San Diego will be one of the largest lounges offered by any carrier at the airport.

Spanning over 13,000 square feet, they’re designing the Lounge to reflect San Diego’s vibrant local culture. Construction is slated to begin in early 2027.

Todd Traynor-Corey, vice president of guest products and experience at Alaska Airlines said: “Our Lounges are more than just a place for guests to wait for their next flight. They’re an extension of our signature hospitality and comfort that our guests experience each time they fly with us.

“With our new San Diego Lounge on the horizon, we’re shaping the future of travel with spaces designed to make travel feel seamless, elevated and welcoming.”

The future Lounge is the latest investment in our growing San Diego hub. They will offer 45 nonstop destinations from San Diego, the most of any carrier and a distinction held for years.

This year, we expanded travel options for Southern Californians by adding new nonstop service from San Diego to Phoenix, Denver, Chicago O’Hare, Reagan National in Washington D.C., Medford, Oregon, and Sun Valley, Idaho.

Kimberly Becker, president and CEO of the San Diego County Regional Airport Authority said: “We are very pleased to see Alaska continue to grow at SAN.

“Providing an exceptional customer experience at our airport is at the heart of our purpose. Alaska’s new lounge will offer travelers an enhanced option for dining and relaxing while experiencing all that our airport offers.”
