ATTN: You owe it to these great Husky fans and loyal Alaska Air customers to provide some flights from Seattle to New Orleans for the Sugar Bowl.

“I apologize but we have no info on that at this time,” Alaska Air’s X account wrote as a reply to fans asking about these issues.

UW inked a 10-year, $41 million deal with Alaska Airlines to become a school sponsor in 2015, awarding the airline the naming rights to Husky Stadium. The stadium’s name changed to Alaska Airlines Field at Husky Stadium. Additionally, Alaska Airlines also has the naming rights to athletic facilities in UW’s athletic village.

“As two world-class organizations with roots in Seattle, our Puget Sound partnership powers the economic engine of our state,” UW wrote in a prepared statement about its partnership with Alaska Airlines. “From Tacoma to Bothell, the Alaska Airlines Arena at Hec Edmundson Pavilion and all around the Pacific Northwest, Alaska is helping students unleash possibilities 鈥� and potential.”

UW finished its college football season with a No. 2 rank in the nation behind the play of Heisman candidate Michael Penix Jr. The Sugar Bowl against the No. 3 Texas Longhorns will be a rematch of last year’s Alamo Bowl, where UW defeated Texas 27-20.

Texas is coached by Steve Sarkisian, UW’s former head coach from 2009-2013. Sarkisian had the third-highest win percentage as a head coach for UW for the last 20 years (minimum 18 games coached), trailing just Chris Petersen and Kalen DeBoer, the program’s current head coach.
