Our Verdict
Not as good as the 70k + $100 offer, not sure if we will see that offer return in the near time so might be worth applying for this if you have a need for Alaska airline miles. Will add this to our best credit card bonus page. Read these things everybody should know about Bank of America cards before applying.
Got mail offer of 80k miles + Companion Fare
Can I apply both personal and business together and get bonus for both? Thanks.
Snail mail offers of 80k (AF not waived)
The new link is for 70k, while the old link (the one in the body of the post, not the previous update) shows 75k. Is there anything else I’m missing here which makes the most recently posted link a better option than the main link?
the new link given is only for 70k points, not 75k points.
I already have 2 of these cards. I wonder what my chances are to be approved for yet another one? I probably had 6 or 7 of the Alaska cards in the last 15 years churning over and over.
How many months have you spaced out those two cards?
It has been at least 24 months
In the same boat. Alaska is one of my favorites. I’ve been churning it for myself and p2 every 13 months. I basically close it when the annual fee hits and open a new one a month later. Here’s a bit of my 24 month history from Alaska. I’m about to open another.

Will the companion fare be good once they start flying Seattle to Tokyo
I’m only seeing 70k on the today’s new link
And hopefully Katrina Wong gets to keep her job a little longer (if she hasn’t already been “retired” to enjoy spending her referral winnings)…
Thank you for your service, Ms. Wong
they have the promo on alaskaair home page now (no employee code required)

there’s a 40k points and $300 statement credit version also (no companion pass) – this appeared in ads on alaskaair website with a different campaign id and offercode
IIRC, The $300 statement credit must be spent on Alaska Airlines purchases.
Yikes.
