ALASKA MILEAGE PLAN – 50% MORE BONUS MILES
Promotion Link to miles Purchase
This promotion is tiered with 20% bonus on purchase of 10K miles. Minimum purchase of 40K points is required for the 50% bonus. The bonus tiers look like this;
Buy 10,000 — 19,000 miles = 20% bonus
Buy 20,000 — 39,000 miles = 35% bonus
Buy 40,000 — 60,000 miles = 50% bonus
With a 50% bonus, this promotion can be maxed by purchasing 60K (90K with bonus) miles for ~$1774 USD at 1.97 CPM – an incredible value!! Even if you start at zero balance, with this promotion you can fly from North America to Asia in business class (60K miles, on Cathay for example) for $1182 or in First Class (70K miles) for $1292, wow!
$1774 USD is a lot of money and not everyone will be keen on shelling that amount to earn the 90K, however, its a good offer to top up accounts. Alaska miles are one of the most valuable airlines currency in the market and come with great airline partners and routing sweet spots – couple of examples;
- Cathay Pacific from North America to Asia (Cathay Pacific Business Class on 777-300ER review 2018), oneway for 30K/35K/50K/70K across all cabins
- KLM from North America to Middle East, oneway for 40K/70K across Econ and Business.

I received an email for 40%, I’m assuming the 50% offer is targeted?
It did not appear to be targeted, t&c dont have any language to suggest that either. When you log into your AS account, does it only give you 40% bonus? What are the tiers? Also double check the promo dates in your email. Let me know..thanks!
