We are an independent publisher. Our reporters create honest, accurate, and objective content to help you make decisions. To support our work, we are paid for providing advertising services. Many, but not all, of the offers and clickable hyperlinks (such as a “Next” button) that appear on this site are from companies that compensate us. The compensation we receive and other factors, such as your location, may impact what ads and links appear on our site, and how, where, and in what order ads and links appear. While we strive to provide a wide range of offers, our site does not include information about every product or service that may be available to you. We strive to keep our information accurate and up-to-date, but some information may not be current. So, your actual offer terms from an advertiser may be different than the offer terms on this site. And the advertised offers may be subject to additional terms and conditions of the advertiser. All information is presented without any warranty or guarantee to you.

This page may include: credit card ads that we may be paid for (“advertiser listing”); and general information about credit card products (“editorial content”). Many, but not all, of the offers and clickable hyperlinks (such as a “Apply Now” button or “Learn More” button) that appear on this site are from companies that compensate us. When you click on that hyperlink or button, you may be directed to the credit card issuer’s website where you can review the terms and conditions for your selected offer. Each advertiser is responsible for the accuracy and availability of its ad offer details, but we attempt to verify those offer details. We have partnerships with advertisers such as Brex, Capital One, Chase, Citi, Wells Fargo and Discover. We also include editorial content to educate consumers about financial products and services. Some of that content may also contain ads, including links to advertisers’ sites, and we may be paid on those ads or links.

    Through October 5, 2017, Alaska Airlines is targeting folks to earn up to a 50% bonus when buying Alaska Airlines miles.  So check your Alaska Airlines account to see which bonus you’ve been targeted for!

    I’ll give you the details of this promotion.  And help you decide whether it’s worth buying miles for an upcoming trip!

    Through October 5, 2017, you can get up to a 50% bonus when you buy Alaska Airlines miles.  To see which offer you’ve been targeted for, sign-in to your Alaska Airlines account.

    For example, some folks have been targeted to earn:

    Alaska Airlines Is Targeting Folks for Up to 50% Bonus Miles Through October 5, 2017

    You can buy up to 60,000 Alaska Airlines miles per transaction (not including the bonus).  And there’s no limit to the total number of miles you can buy.  So do the math to see what makes sense for your particular situation!

    If you were targeted to earn a 50% bonus and bought 40,000 Alaska Airlines miles, you’d pay ~$1,182 (including taxes and fees) for a total of 60,000 Alaska Airlines miles.  So you’d pay ~1.97 cents per mile ($1,182 / 60,000 miles).

    That’s not a mind-blowing value, so this deal is likely only worth it for folks who need to top off their account for a particular award ticket.  Or who want to fly Business or First Class at a discount!

    For example, if you bought 54,000 Alaska Airlines miles, you’d receive 27,000 bonus miles, and pay a total of ~$1,596.

    That’s enough for a one-way First Class flight from the US to Sydney on Cathay Pacific.  That same ticket can easily cost $6,000+!

    Remember, you can use Alaska Airlines miles for flights on their partner airlines, like British Airways, Delta, and Cathay Pacific.  And make sure to read this post about how to use fewer miles for short flights with Alaska Airlines’ new award chart!

    Bottom Line

    Alaska Airlines is targeting folks to earn up to a 50% bonus when buying Alaska Airlines miles through October 5, 2017.

    While this is a nice discount, I still recommend folks only buy miles if they have a certain award flight in mind.  Or if you want to fly in comfortable Business or First Class seats at a steep discount.

    Will you take advantage of this targeted Alaska Airlines bonus?  Let me know in the comments!
