subscription-based travel offering that takes value and flexibility
to the next level. Available starting today, Flight Pass members

airports to Reno, Phoenix and Las

"Flight Pass builds on our mission to offer travelers the most
West Coast destinations at the best value," said Alex Corey, managing director of business
development and products for Alaska Airlines. "Our commitment to
care means offering convenient and affordable options that fit our
guests' lifestyle and connect them to where they want to go. After
two years of staying close to home, guests are ready to travel
again and with 100 daily flights from 16 airports throughout
California and between
California to Reno, Phoenix
and Las Vegas, Flight Pass will
take them there."
Flight Pass subscribers can choose between two annual plans –
based on the best value or most flexibility – that differ only in
the length of the required advanced booking time. Subscribers will
receive credits deposited monthly or bi-monthly into their Flight
Pass account, to be redeemed for 6, 12 or 24 nonstop trips a year
to eligible destinations. Flyers are still required to pay
applicable government taxes and airport fees on each flight, in
addition to the monthly subscription fee and nominal fare (most
flights the fare is only $0.01).
Travel trend reports reveal that most Americans are planning
domestic travel in 2022, particularly to warm-weather and beach
destinations – and some are even more willing to be spontaneous and
flexible on future trips.1 Anyone with 2022 goals
to see and do more are in luck. Flight Pass locks in a great deal
for a year of travel with varying options that will fit every
budget and lifestyle.
