After operating at Dallas Love Field for a few years, Alaska Airlines decided to end service at the public airport this spring. Alaska, which first came to Love Field in 2017, currently operates a roundtrip between Dallas and Seattle five times a week.

Alaska Airlines is discontinuing service at Dallas Love Field. The Seattle-based airline confirmed in a statement sent to KERA Tuesday that it plans to cease operations at Dallas’ city-owned airport on May 14.

Delta Airlines, Southwest Airlines and Alaska Airlines operate out of Love Field, Alaska Airlines uses two spots within Love Field’s 20 gates. So with Alaska Airlines not occupying the two lanes, this will open up two spots for the other airlines. It’s unclear which airline will use the gates that will be vacated by Alaska Airlines.

Alaska Airlines will stop flying out of Dallas Love Field in May, giving up a presence the carrier has fought bitterly to preserve for years.

Alaska Airlines will pull out of Dallas Love Field. The carrier's last flight from the Dallas area's second largest airport will be on May 14. After that, Alaska operations in the Dallas metropolitan area will be consolidated at Dallas-Fort Worth Airport, the airline said in a statement.
