Alaska Airlines is boosting flights from the Mainland to Hawaii, while at the same time cutting flights to Mexico, the company announced today.

The carrier said it will inaugurate four-times-weekly service between Oakland and Kahului Nov. 9, and thrice-weekly service between Oakland and Kona Nov. 10.

Additionally, the airline will expand its Seattle-Honolulu schedule from one daily flight to two, beginning July 2, and move up the start of its Portland-Maui service to July 3, from Aug. 7. With all the additions, Alaska Airlines will have a total of 59 flights a week to Hawaii.

Alaska is offering introductory one-way fares of $169 between Oakland-Maui, Oakland-Kona and Portland-Maui, for tickets purchased by May 21.

In addition, the airline also said it will begin Seattle-Houston and Seattle-Atlanta service this fall.

Alaska Airlines said it plans to reduce its summer and fall flying to Mexico by 37 percent beginning July 2. A spokesman said the airline said it is reducing capacity to Mexico because of falling demand and and reallocating it into new markets that will bring additional revenue to the airline.
