Earning and Accumulating Alaska Airlines Mileage Plan Miles

Below, I outline the main ways in which to earn and accumulate Mileage Plan Miles.

1. Fly Alaska Airlines or an airline partner

You accumulate Mileage Plan miles from taking Alaska Airlines and Partner flights. You earn one mile for every mile flown on Alaska and various amounts on partners. Elite status members earn even more.

2. Use your Bank Of America Alaska Airlines Visa Signature Card 

When you use your Bank Of America Alaska Airlines Visa Signature Card you earn 3 miles per $1 spent directly on Alaska Airlines purchases and 1 miles per $1 spent on all other purchases.

If you do not already have the Bank Of America Alaska Airlines Visa Signature Card, you can apply here.

3. Transfer Marriott Bonvoy Points to your Mileage Plan account

Marriott Bonvoy members can transfer 3 Marriott Bonvoy points to receive 1 Mileage Plan mile. Whenever you transfer 60,000 points, you get a 15,000 point bonus. So if you have 60,000 points, you can yield 25,000 miles…60,000 becomes 20,000 miles and the extra 15,000 that you get becomes 5,000 airline miles.   Transfer your points here to your Milage Plan account.

4.  Earn Mileage Plan miles shopping online

Shopping portals are a great place to rack up extra miles, you earn miles while you shop.

5. Earn Alaska Airlines Mileage Plan miles by spending $ with Mileage Plan other non-airline partners
