Alaska doesn’t allow infants on all Awards, or is it just on partner’s?
Would have love to bring my family to Israel on Alaska miles
Just book the infant a seat and bring a carseat. Safer and more convenient.
Or try contacting El Al to add the infant lap child.
Any data points on asking ELAL to add the infant ?
@Dan – i had the card and cancelled it several years ago. Would i be eligible for the sign-up bonus?
Yes
Just applied; card application unavailable. Was it pulled already?
I just wrote that application was unavailable. I resubmitted (thru your link), but this time i logged into my B of A account. Approved. Thank you!
Applied and declined with an excellent credit score and 0 missed payments
Reach out to them. It happened to my brother and they needed to verify certain things…
That will give you at least 73,000 miles. Or signup together with a spouse to earn 146,000 miles! Two individual accounts?
Is there a way to know if I’m pre-qualified?
Seems like they pulled the offer early. I got to the last step and got an error message that the offer is no longer available
