SEATTLE, WA (MyBellinghamNow.com) – Alaska Airlines said it will start nonstop services to Japan and South Korea next year as part of a plan to boost international flights.

The airline said it will begin flying between SeaTac and Tokyo’s Narita International Airport in May and add service between Seattle and Seoul in October.

Alaska Airlines plans to fly from Seattle to at least a dozen international destinations by 2030. The company announced the new routes as it publicized a plan to boost profit by $1 billion over three years.

It said greater efficiency from combining with Hawaiian Airlines will save the company at least $500 million by 2027.

Alaska Airlines also plans to introduce a new premium co-branded credit card.
