Lake Tahoe Airport will make a long-sought direct connection to Los Angeles next month when Alpha Airlines service starts. Airport spokeswoman Janis Brand announced the agreement with the Los Angeles-based airline, saying service should start in mid-August with two round-trip flights daily between Tahoe and Los Angeles International Airport. Alpha Air has been in operation since 1982. The only carrier serving the Tahoe airport, American Eagle, has announced plans to suspend flights between the area and San Francisco this fall. The company plans to resume operations in the spring.
