Alaska Airlines and Horizon Air Unable to Resume Portland Operations This Morning Due to Runway Conditions

Alaska Airlines and Horizon Air have been unable to operate any flights out of Portland as planned this morning due to runway conditions.

The airport is working to clear runways and taxiways following more snow and low temperatures overnight. The airlines are also working with airport personnel to clear gate areas, and hope to resume operations on a limited basis this afternoon as soon as conditions allow. As always, Alaska and Horizon’s first priority remains the safety of passengers and employees.

Before leaving for the airport, all customers are advised to check for the most current flight status information online at alaskaair.com or horizonair.com or by calling 1-800-252-7522 or 1-800-547-9308.

The airlines are working to re-accommodate passengers whose flight schedules have been disrupted. Passengers booked on a canceled flight may re-book on the next available flight without penalty or apply for a full refund of the unused portion of their ticket. Passengers wishing to exercise either of these options should call Alaska Airlines Reservations at 1-800-252-7522 or Horizon Air Reservations at 1-800-547-9308. Reservations lines will remain open 24 hours to serve customers who have been impacted.
