ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. (AP) - City officials say Alaska Airlines is adding a non-stop, daily flight from Albuquerque to San Francisco and back this fall.

The flights will begin Sept. 18 with one flight leaving for San Francisco International Airport at 7:15 a.m. and another flight headed back to Albuquerque International Sunport at 6:15 p.m.

The daily flights will be operated by Horizon Air on 76-seat E175 jets.



Albuquerque Mayor Richard Berry says Alaska Airlines now will serve four nonstop destinations from the Sunport.

Since 2009, the Sunport has added three new airlines with service to three new destinations and expanded options to five existing destinations.

The city also has announced a major renovation project to the pre-security portion of the terminal this spring, with completion scheduled next year.
