The Offer
- Alaska Airlines is running a promo for fast tracking Silver/Gold status: Register and then fly in or out of San Diego. The travel must take place between October 1, 2025 and March 31, 2026:
- 5 segments gets you Atmos Silver (oneworld Ruby)
- 10 segments gets you Atmos Gold (oneworld Sapphire)
Our Verdict
Saver fares & award tickets don’t count. Must be AS or an associated regional (no AA metal). The cheapest flights are SAN to SFO/SJC/PHX/LAS.
There’s also a separate promo to get 2x points for flights between San Diego and many other cities.
Hat tip to Parts_Unknown
Would a connecting flight through SAN count as 2 segments? It says origin or destination so wondering if it has to be 2 separate reservations?

The summary might be misleading–according to the offer it’s for fights “between San Diego and select cities”, and the list of cities is far from a complete list of nonstop AS destinations from SAN. Notably, nothing in Hawaii except HNL, and also no BOS.
If I already booked a flight from San Diego to SAC a couple months ago, but register for the promotion now, would that flight still count if the flight is on October 15th?
“Registration is required prior to the first qualifying flight.” Seems like you’re good.
There will also be SAN – DEN flights (and to a couple of other new destinations) starting in October. Not too expensive but depends on a day.
There is actually a second link for 2x points for some routes to/from San Diego. Also free points if you live within 75 miles of certain west coast cities (soccer related promo).
