By building our newest lounge in San Francisco, we will nearly double our footprint in three years. We recently announced a plan to further expand our lounge program, including in San Diego and Honolulu, followed by a new world-class lounge in Seattle to support international service. We will begin an expanded Anchorage Lounge early next year and open our new Portland Lounge in 2026.

In September we began adding more Premium Class seats to our main fleet, including our 900ER, 800 and MAX9. We plan to increase our seats on the First Class 737-800 from 12 to 16 to make it easier for our guests to upgrade and to meet demand for premium seating. In First Class, our new premium seats feature calf support, a new device holder on the backrest, a 6-way headrest with neck support and USB-C charging options. In our 737-800 Main Cabin and Premium Class, guests will continue to experience comfort and convenience at every seat with enhanced features including new device holders with integrated cup holders, USB-C charging and a 6-way headrest with dedicated neck support.
