A New Landmark at Harvey Milk Terminal 1

Alaska Airlines has unveiled its latest airport lounge at the Harvey Milk Terminal 1 of San Francisco International Airport. The 11,000-square-foot facility, located across from gate B6, signifies a remarkable improvement over the previous lounge in Terminal 2 and officially opened to the public this past Wednesday. The lounge operates daily from 5 a.m. to 7 p.m., offering travelers a serene and comfortable environment to relax before their flights.

Modern Amenities and Exquisite Offerings

The new Alaska Lounge features an array of amenities designed to enhance the travel experience. Guests can enjoy privacy booths for work and relaxation, as well as floor-to-ceiling windows that provide stunning views of the tarmac. True to the foodie spirit of the terminal, the lounge offers elevated drink and dining options, including hand-crafted espresso, local craft brews, and wine at the bar. Local specialties such as San Francisco sourdough bread and a unique made-to-order pancake machine are also available, ensuring a delightful culinary experience.

Updated Policies and Access Options

This grand opening follows the completion of Terminal 1’s five-year renovation, which wrapped up last month. Alongside this development, Alaska Airlines has implemented changes to its lounge access policies. While annual membership fees have increased by $100, members can still bring immediate family or up to two adults as guests at no additional cost. Additionally, eligible first-class ticket holders and oneworld Emerald and Sapphire members with same-day tickets can access the lounges. The new San Francisco lounge is now the largest Alaska Lounge in California, illustrating the airline’s commitment to upgrading its facilities for a superior passenger experience.

Alaska Airlines’ Commitment to Excellence

Over the past year, Alaska Airlines has been actively renovating its lounges across other West Coast hubs, including Portland and Seattle. The opening of the new lounge in San Francisco is a testament to the airline’s dedication to offering premium comfort and convenience to its travelers. As more passengers return to the skies, Alaska Airlines continues to prioritize enhancing its services and amenities, ensuring a memorable and pleasant travel experience for all.
