Promo Code: Save 10-20% On Alaska Airlines Flights

10-20% off flights that are typically 30% more expensive than Delta or Southwest and even American.
Not enough blogs cover the fact that Alaska flights have become expensive compared to the competition and their mileage redemption has gotten even more expensive.

@Lucky- Thank you for the code. Certain flights from Bay area to So Cal are 50% off of the lowest X fare.

@Mike is spot-on.

Huh? Alaska having flights typically 30% more expensive than SW or Delta? #fakenews

Which flights are these? I Just checked flights from IAD-LAX, and SEA-LAX for this Mon, Delta is higher in both comparisons. So much for that theory..

Ben - thank you so much for the Alert - super helpful. I was able to take advantage and booked tickets @ $27 each for intra-California. Haven't seen price that low in decades!!! THANK YOU for all you do on this Blog. I have learned soooo much from you, and enjoy everything I read here. Keep up the excellent content and coverage - you have many fans out here 🙂

AGGGGGGH! I've been waiting for a goddamned deal on an SEA to IAD flight on *3/12/20*, AND I've got a damned $25 customer service discount I need to use!

(meanders off swearing to himself)

@Lucky - Thanks for the article with tip on AMEX Platinum (targeted) offer. I have taken advantage of it for some travel planned on Alaska Airlines next February by buying my tickets now.

@Mike - Alaska's fares from DAL seem to be less than from DFW and in any case beat most competition here from either airport. Your experience with Alaska's fares doesn't seem to hold everywhere.

@Mike
Not true in my case. I book flights along the west coast every other month and alaska has been consistently cheaper than united, delta and aa. Southwest is the only one with cheaper flights. Jetblue does as well but routes are more restricted on jetblue along california. In some cases Alaska first class is cheaper than united basic economy sooooo yeah.

@Mike - I've had the same experience, but I think it's seasonal. This past summer, flights to SEA and PDX were ridiculously expensive, but that's when most people travel to the PNW. It's cheap now because it's winter.

Also, I'd much rather fly Alaska, even if it is a little more money. In my experience, it's well worth it.

Thanks Lucky.

I used the American Express Platinum link to save $40 on $ 262 airfare.

@Mike, I haven't experienced that and I fly a lot (75k with Alaska and Gold with Delta). Delta is nearly always more expensive than Alaska. Southwest is very dependent on when you book. And comparing Alaska or Delta to United and American is a bit like comparing a Mercedes to a Pinto; who cares if it's cheaper, it sucks.

Thanks for the reminder on this promotion Ben! Saved me a couple hundred bucks today as I canceled and rebooked a few flights with this deal. $250 round trip from SEA-PHL is a heck of a deal!
