Tri-Cities Airport Not Impacted By Alaska Airlines Cancellations

(Pasco, WA) -- The Tri-Cities Airport says it has seen virtually no impact on Alaska Airlines flights to Sea-Tac Airport. The Seattle-based carrier says it would cancel two-percent of its flights through June. The Tri-Cities airport says Alaska flights that come here are operated by Alaska's commuter division Horizon Air, and because of that is not subjected to the same staffing issues. The airport does say you may have issues getting to your final destination if connecting through Seattle, but the airline will notify you of that.
