San José, Calif. – Alaska Airlines is resuming nonstop service between San José Mineta International Airport (SJC) and Los Angeles International Airport (LAX), bringing back four daily flights beginning Nov. 1.

The restored service gives Silicon Valley travelers more options for reaching Los Angeles – just in time for holiday travel – with departures throughout the day.

Alaska Airlines SJC-LAX Schedule:

AS 1624 7 a.m. 8:21 a.m.

The return of Alaska Airlines’ LAX service – operated by a Boeing 737-900 – expands nonstop connectivity from Silicon Valley to Southern California and provides additional flexibility for business, leisure and other travel between the Bay Area and Los Angeles.

Alaska joins Delta and Southwest, which also offer daily nonstops from SJC to LAX.
