Yes, Alaska Airlines had interchange flights, first with Braniff, then  
with American and Continental.
All 727's.
Started in 1974 with Braniff, 1982 with American and Continental  
around then or maybe 1983. I could look it up but I seem to think they  
ended around 1986...
Initially AS metal was used in the slow winter months and the other  
airlines' aircraft during summer, but I remember AA aircraft in the  
winter with 2 flights a day.
Seattle was the transfer point for flight crews changing. Typical  
routings were Fairbanks-Anchorage-Seattle-Dallas-Houston but later  
Prudhoe Bay, Portland, Chicago and others were included in the program.
