Alaska Airlines is growing and expanding their operations out west. This could be good news for captive travelers like us who need more flights and more competition.

Plus, the fact that we have some of the highest airline ticket prices in the country keep people from flying here.

It's funny how you can fly 150 pounds of freight to Denver for about a third of what it costs to fly a 150 pound there.

Hopefully this will help ...
