Targeted: Get A 60% Bonus When You Purchase Alaska Miles
Alaska Airlines has rolled out their new award charts with partner awards from just 4,500 miles each way!
Login here and you can see if you’re targeted to get a 60% bonus when you purchase 40K+ Alaska miles. You can buy up to 160,000 miles per transaction for $2,750+$206.25 tax=$2,956.25. That sale ends tonight at 11:59pm PT.
That comes out to 1.847 cents per mile.
Alaska elites have no annual limit on the number of miles which may be purchased. If you are not an Elite Member, your account may only be credited up to a maximum total of 150,000 miles in a calendar year. Bonus miles do not count toward the maximum total of 150,000 miles, so with a 60% bonus, you can buy up to 240K miles per calendar year.
You can status match from other airlines to Alaska.
The promotion page implies that if you take advantage of this offer, you will also have the opportunity to purchase miles with a 70% bonus, though the terms of that offer aren’t disclosed.

- A short-haul flight on AA will cost 4.5K miles + $18 in coach or 9K miles + $18 in business class. If you buy the miles for 1.847 cents each, that’s like paying $101 in coach or $184 in business.

Find lots of other great uses of Alaska miles in this post!
Aside than buying miles, it’s not easy to obtain Alaska miles other than from the Alaska Card. You can transfer increments of 60K Marriott points into 25K Alaska miles, or you can transfer Bilt points into Alaska miles at a 1:1 ratio.
Sadly, due to El Al’s new partnership with Delta, the Alaska-El Al partnership will end on 7/31, so you’ll want to take advantage of booking awards by that date. You’ll be able to book travel through June 2025 in July when the partnership ends.

Alaska doesn’t allow infants on all Awardsor is it just on partner’s?
Would have love to bring my family to Israel on Alaska miles
Points not posting immediately. Buyer beware
Tried that link and see only 40%? Is this for everyone?
Only unlocked a 40% by me, min 15000
“Login here AND YOU CAN SEE if you’re targeted to get a 60% bonus when you purchase 40K+ Alaska miles.”
Deal ends April 23
I also got 40%
Plus tax = $1,600 for 75,000 miles
wouldn’t be a great deal for flying el al round trip for that price.
I got 40%. Will pass
Got 50%, not good enough.
Useless points.
With the latest awards deval the cost of flights fro US-Europe is in the ballpark of many J deals that run through summer. Last year saw many deals where east coast to Europe Round trip in J were priced in the $2100 to $2400 range. Plus you get more abundant availability, no fear of being bumped.
applied and approved for second BOA Alaska AIr. Last one was Jan 23 and is still open. Have $5k on deposit with BOA and several other cards with them.
