Long Beach, CA ~ Long Beach Airport (LGB) has recently announced the addition of new daily nonstop flights to and from Seattle-Tacoma International Airport (SEA) and Portland International Airport (PDX), courtesy of Southwest Airlines. This expansion offers travelers more options to conveniently connect along the West Coast, strengthening LGB's growing network which currently serves 21 nonstop destinations and nearly 400 one-stop connections worldwide.

By strengthening our already growing network of routes, we are further positioning ourselves to welcome the world in 2028."

To celebrate the first day of service, passengers on both outbound and inbound flights were treated to surprise gate celebrations including live music as part of LGB's ongoing LGB Live! series, free coffee from Boathouse on the Bay and 4th Street Vine restaurants, as well as giveaways of commemorative stickers and airport-themed items. In addition, Aquarium of the Pacific generously donated free tickets for inbound passengers to enjoy during their stay in Long Beach.
