The Offer

• Reddit user rudayo has reported receiving an offer for a sign up bonus of 35,000 miles on the Alaska Airlines Visa Signature card:

  • 5x miles per $1 spent on Mileage Plan Dining
  • 3x miles per $1 spent on Alaska Airlines tickets, vacation packages, and cargo purchases
  • 1x miles on all other purchases
• Coach Companion Fare from $121
• They will sometimes approve you for a Platinum Plus Visa or Preferred Visa card which has different annual fees and sign up bonus
• Free checked bag for you and up to six other passengers on your reservation
• No foreign transaction fees

Our Verdict

Anybody can get an offer of 30,000 miles + $100 statement credit, that offer is superior unless you value Alaska miles at over 2¢ each. Previously when the standard bonus on this card was 25,000 miles it was possible to get 25,000 miles + $100 or 30,000 miles so this is just really a natural extension of that with the additional 5,000 base miles.

It’s also possible to get a bonus of 30,000 miles on the business card. One of the main reasons people like Bank of America cards is that they will combine multiple inquiries made on the same day into one, other cards you might want to consider:

• Bank of America Cash Rewards $200 Cash Signup Bonus
• Spirit Airlines 15,000 Mile + $100 Statement Credit Sign Up Bonus

As always make sure you read these things everybody should know about Bank of America credit cards before applying or asking basic questions in the comments.
