Horizon in First Mexico Service

Horizon launches Los Angeles-Mexico service on January 19, when it begins serving Loreto, its first point south of the border. The new service supplements Alaska’s four weekly LAX-Loreto flights. The new Horizon flights will operate on Saturdays, departing LAX at 11:10 a.m. Pacific time and arriving in Loreto at 2:14 p.m. Central time. Return flights will depart Loreto at 3 p.m. Central time and arrive in Los Angeles at 3:59 p.m. Pacific time. Horizon will use a 70-seat Bombardier CRJ-700 regional jet on the route.
Founded in 1697 by Jesuit missionaries, Loreto is located on the eastern shore of Baja on the Sea of Cortez. A town of 10,000, the popular tourist destination is known for its sport fishing, beaches and historical sites. Alaska Airlines introduced service to Mexico in 1988 and now transports more than one million passengers annually between the U.S. West Coast and Mexico. The airline operates up to 44 flights daily serving 10 Mexican destinations.
