Tips for booking cheap Alaska Airlines flights

Book 3–6 weeks out

Alaska domestic fares tend to be most competitive 3 to 6 weeks before travel. Hawaii and Mexico routes benefit from booking 6 to 10 weeks out during peak season.

Mileage Plan is exceptionally valuable

Alaska Mileage Plan miles are earned on oneworld alliance partners and a wide range of hotel and car partners. The program offers some of the best sweet spots in the industry for redeeming miles on partner airlines including British Airways, Cathay Pacific, and Japan Airlines.

First checked bag free with the card

The Alaska Airlines Visa credit card gives the primary cardholder and up to six companions on the same reservation one free checked bag each — a useful saving on Hawaii and Mexico trips.

Watch the Saver fares

Alaska's Saver fare is the lowest bucket, with no seat selection, no changes, and no upgrades — but it's a good option for simple point-to-point travel if you're flexible on seating.

Frequently asked questions

Is Alaska Airlines part of an alliance?

Yes — Alaska Airlines joined the oneworld alliance in 2021. This gives Alaska Mileage Plan members earning and redemption opportunities on American Airlines, British Airways, Cathay Pacific, Japan Airlines, Qatar Airways, and other oneworld partners.

Does Alaska Airlines charge for checked bags?

Alaska allows one personal item and one carry-on bag free in all fare classes. Checked bags start at $30 for the first bag on domestic routes. MVP and MVP Gold status members, and Alaska Airlines Visa cardholders, receive one free checked bag for themselves and up to six companions on the same reservation.

Does Alaska Airlines fly to Hawaii?

Yes — Alaska operates multiple daily nonstops to Hawaii (Honolulu, Maui, Kona, and Kauai) from Seattle, and also from Los Angeles, San Francisco, Portland, San Diego, and other West Coast cities. It's one of the strongest West Coast–Hawaii carriers.

What is Alaska Mileage Plan?

Mileage Plan is Alaska's free-to-join frequent flyer program. Members earn miles on Alaska flights and with oneworld partners, hotels, car rental companies, and credit card spending. Miles don't expire as long as your account has qualifying activity within 24 months. The program is particularly valued for partner redemptions on international carriers.

Can I change or cancel an Alaska Airlines flight?

Alaska's Main Cabin and above allow changes and cancellations with no fee — a standout policy. Saver fares don't allow changes. If you cancel an eligible fare, Alaska issues a travel credit valid for one year. Refundable fares return the full amount to your original payment method.
