I'm headed to Portland, OR for a week later this summer and researching flights from RDU Airport. I can't seem to find any direct flights ... do they exists? If any of you Triangle folks moved here from Portland and have tips on things to do and sights to see out there please feel free to send me a DM. Thanks!
The airline industry refers to "direct" flights as those where you don't change planes, so you may make a stop. I assume you are looking for non-stop flights. I don't think there are any non-stops to the NW, but you can look on Kayak and the airlines they don't cover like Southwest.

The RDU website (http://www.rdu.com/airlineflightinfo/destinations.htm - broken link) doesn't show any destinations in the Pacific Northwest, so it looks like you'll have to change planes somewhere.
The only west coast flight you will find is to LAX on Delta. And it comes and goes (meaning, they discontinue it, they start it back, then discontinue, etc). Other than that, RDU doesn't have any flights to the west. Back in the Midway Airlines days, I think we had a flight to San Jose for a short time. There was talk about a Midway Seattle flight, and then I think Midway Airlines went out of business. In general, I just don't think there's enough business to justify these west coast flights. We fly American a lot, and go through Chicago or Dallas to the west.

I travel every week and unfortunately the answer is no. You will have to connect from RDU.
