Cargo Connections

Just in time for the holidays, our new 737-800BCF freighter increases the payload and flexibility of our dedicated cargo fleet, serving the state of Alaska and connecting to the lower 48.

For the second straight year, we shipped hundreds of pounds of fresh hops in a farm-to-glass collaboration to bring a uniquely Pacific Northwest beer to consumers across the country.

An innovative idea from an Alaska Airlines ramp agent sparked a new cargo program that will carry up to 50,000 pounds of recyclables each year out of rural Alaska.

We are the first U.S. airline cargo service to fly a bulk shipment of fresh hops to Hawaii and Alaska within 24 hours of harvest – a potential game-changer for the craft beer industry.

In 2023, we will add two 737-800 aircraft to our Alaska Air Cargo fleet, increasing our payload capacity and giving us five scheduled freighters serving the state of Alaska.

More than 30 new Boeing 737-9 MAX aircraft will join our fleet this year, bringing higher fuel efficiency, additional long-range nonstop route options – and expanded opportunities for cargo.
