Alaska Airlines has reopened of its newly expanded Alaska Lounge at Ted Stevens Anchorage International Airport after nearly a year of development and construction. The spacious lounge now offers more than double the seating – from 65 seats to 140 – and an additional 2,600 square feet to reset, recharge and relax.

“The Anchorage Lounge is one of the busiest in our network, and we can’t wait to welcome back guests to this newly refreshed space as they travel through Anchorage,” said Todd Traynor-Corey, Vice President of Guest Products and Experience, Alaska Airlines. “This remodel is part of our Great Land Investment Plan, which involves $60 million in projects throughout the state of Alaska over the next few years. Providing an elevated travel experience is just one way to show we care for our guests and thank them for their loyalty.”

Located in Concourse C near Gate C-1, the expanded lounge now offers a variety of comfy chairs and furniture, including the popular Signature Loungers positioned for views of the tarmac and beyond. Guests will find that most seats are also near power outlets to allow them to sit back in comfort while recharging their electronic devices.

The lounge serves a daily selection of complimentary fresh, seasonal food items and premium beverages. Travellers can enjoy handcrafted espresso drinks made with locally roasted beans from Kaladi Brothers, alongside a curated selection of West Coast wines, craft brews, and custom cocktails.

Each lounge in the Alaska Airlines network is designed to reflect the unique character of its city. In Anchorage, it has blended modern interiors with inspiration from Alaska’s breath-taking natural beauty. Each year, it will showcase the talents of local artists who creatively capture the essence of the state in their work.

“We’re proud to offer our guests a space that feels both modern and deeply connected to Alaska’s rich culture that celebrates the state’s landscape and heritage,” said Marilyn Romano, Regional Vice President of Alaska, Alaska Airlines. “This year, thanks to the Alaska Native Heritage Center, we’ll feature a carefully curated collection representing the five major cultural regions of Alaska. We hope our guests visiting the Anchorage Lounge feel a true sense of place as they recharge.”
