WALLA WALLA -- Port of Walla Walla commissioners will consider reducing Alaska Airlines' rents and fees during a 2 p.m. Friday meeting at the port's office, 310 A St., in Walla Walla.
The port is trying to keep commercial air service at the Walla Walla Regional Airport, said Jim Kuntz, the port's executive director. Currently, Alaska Airlines provides two daily flights between Walla Walla and Seattle, and said it operates the market at a loss.
Reducing the rent is part of the port's solution to the Walla Walla market losing money, Kuntz said.
The port also may postpone negotiations with Northwest Grain Growers until after wheat harvest is complete.
