10% Off On First Class Tickets
This offer works exactly the same way at the 30% on economy tickets with the same terms and conditions. I did a test booking and it does work for first class.
Earn Up To 20,000 EQMs From Credit Card Spend
Although this promotion has been going on for a week, it is worth mentioning. Yes, your credit card spending can help you attain to reach a higher elite status. You could literally go from zero to tier 2 elite status (MVP) from credit card spending alone. This promotion works in increments of 2,500 miles. I don’t believe that any registration is required for this offer, it should be automatic.
This promotion is good for two months and is good for purchases through November 15, 2021. This offer should not be targeted.
Final Thoughts
The airlines are promoting ticket sales as passenger volume declines from the summer travel season. This time, Alaska Airlines is offering a discount on first class tickets. The “swipe and earn” promotion is great because you can earn elite qualifying miles (EQMs) from credit card spending. Credit card spending usually doesn’t qualify for EQMs.
