Showcasing both its core strength and global network, Alaska makes the journey to the desert part of the experience with the most seats on flights to Palm Springs this April

Alaska Airlines is back in the desert as the official airline of Coachella and Stagecoach, returning center stage for one of the most anticipated cultural moments of the year.

After a showstopping debut last year, featuring a can’t miss activation that pulled in thousands of festivalgoers, Alaska Airlines is raising the bar again with a bold, immersive experience designed exclusively for Coachella and Stagecoach.

Starting Weekend One of Coachella, Alaska invites music lovers to step out of the heat and into another world. The moment guests enter Alaska’s activation, they’re transported “35,000 feet in the air” — a full sensory escape inspired by flying above the clouds. Every detail is thoughtfully transformed, with unexpected design moments and photo ready ops highlighting Alaska’s newest global destinations, including London, Rome, Tokyo and Seoul.

ASHA

Coachella and Stagecoach are more than festivals, they’re defining moments in culture. We’re thrilled to return as the official airline, creating an experience that brings the energy of the festival to life and makes the journey to the desert just as memorable as the weekend itself.”

Because no great festival break is complete without good vibes and good service, Alaska brings its signature hospitality to the desert. Guests can kick back with complimentary beverages and snacks from Alaska and Hawaiian, during select times, while recharging between sets.

And for the first time at Coachella, festival goers can experience Alaska Airlines’ fastest Wi-Fi in the sky — on the ground and reimagined exclusively for the Alaska Airlines activation — during one of the world’s biggest music festivals. Guests can connect and stay online while posting, streaming and sharing every moment in real time. The on‑site Wi‑Fi experience offers fans a preview of what they can expect when flying with Alaska.

Thanks to Alaska’s ongoing investment in connectivity and its partnership with T‑Mobile, guests can enjoy access to onboard Wi‑Fi on select Alaska Airlines and Hawaiian Airlines flights at no cost. Together, Alaska and T-Mobile are committed to keeping travelers connected wherever they go — making every journey, including trips to the desert this festival season, more seamless and enjoyable.

When it comes to getting to the desert, Alaska Airlines makes the journey part of the experience.

Together with Hawaiian Airlines, Alaska’s expansive network delivers easy connections from major West Coast hubs across the Pacific Northwest, California and beyond.
