Airlines Montanans Love

We like reliable flights.

Montanans love airlines that won't cause delays or cancel and have affordable fares.

It's a bonus if the airlines have fantastic destinations.

The airlines Montanans trust the most are Alaska, Southwest, and Delta.

Why?

Those airlines are popular among Montanans due to their reliability and cheap fares.

Southwest might only have flights at Bozeman's Airport, but Delta and Alaska have daily flights at most Montana airports.

Delta and Alaska have had a constant presence in Montana.

These two companies have been making significant moves to add existing airlines to entice customers further.

Alaska Airlines recently purchased Hawaiian Airlines, but the popular airline might have another deal with a popular budget airline.

New Alaska Airlines Merger

This move could be a game-changer.

Simply Flying reports Alaska and Sun Country Airlines have discussed a possible merger.

Why would this be a significant merger?

Alaska Airlines is the prominent airline for the West Coast, and Sun Country offers affordable flights across the Midwest, Canada, and the Southeast.

If these airlines combined, Alaska Airlines customers would have more destinations across America.

This merger would offer folks in the Midwest more affordable options for international flights.

Sun Country operates a seasonal flight out of Billings and Bozeman, but a merger could lead them to add more flights out of Montana.

This move could be fantastic for Montanans.
