Alaska Mileage Plan is offering “Oregonians and residents of Southwest Washington” 5,000 miles just for joining Mileage Plan. They’re offering an extra 20,000 miles for making one qualifying roundtrip (any ticket flying from, to, or connecting in Portland that isn’t a “Hot Deal” fare) between February 15 and April 1.
Very tempting! Add that to an Alaska Visa and a status match, and it could be the start of a nice relationship. đ

Alaska Mileage Plan is one of my favorite programs to buy miles from, both thanks to the frequency with which they sell miles, and what a good deal their redemptions can be. Alaska has just launched their latest bonus on purchased miles, which is only…
The saga of SeaTac Airport's Priority Pass restaurant lives on. Earlier this year SeaTac Airport got its first Priority Pass restaurant. The airport was desperately in need of more Priority Pass locations, given that Alaska Lounges at the airport were…
Alaska Airlines Mileage Plan miles are among my favorite mileage currencies out there. On a per mile basis, I value Alaska miles more than any other airline miles. In this post I wanted to talk a bit more about actually redeeming Alaska miles -- the…
Online shopping portals can be a great way to pick up additional miles & points for purchases youâd make anyway. Just for following a specific link you can earn bonus points in addition to the ones youâd earn for credit card spend. The number of bonus…
An Alaska MP membership along with a UA or CO membership complement each other well. With all the partners Alaska has…pretty much just credit your non-Star Alliance flights (DL,AA,AF,BA,and others) to Alaska and the rest on one’s CO or UA. That’s a nice way to combine a lot of different carriers onto 2 diff accounts.
