Alaska Airlines Launches Flight Subscription Service in the U.S.

Alaska Airlines has introduced Flight Pass, a subscription-based travel offering that offers members up to 24 round-trip flights a year to the most popular routes within California, besides nonstop service from California airports to RenoPhoenix and Las Vegas, for a fixed monthly rate. With annual plans starting at $49 per month, the pass allows passengers to lock in main cabin deals for a whole year and rewards subscribers with lower than average fares on eligible flights.

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 six, 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, besides the monthly subscription fee and nominal fare (most flights are priced at just $0.01).

Interested customers can sign up by creating an account on the airline’s website and choose their preferred plan. They can choose from two options: Flight Pass starts at $49 per month, requires booking at least 14 days before travel, and as early as 90 days in advance; and Flight Pass Pro starts at $199 per month, allows same-day booking up to two hours before departure, and as early as 90 days in advance. Next, subscribers will have to choose the number of round-trip flights they would like to take annually: six, 12 or 24. They can redeem their credits and book their trip on an eligible flight, choosing from 100 daily flights connecting 13 California airports to each other and to Reno, Phoenix and Vegas.
