This year started off with a flurry of fantastic credit card welcome bonuses, but these things don’t last forever and over the last month we’ve seen many of them come to an end.
Only until Wednesday, the Alaska Airlines card is offering new cardholders 70,000 bonus miles for spending $3,000 on the card in the first 90 days.
In addition to that, when hitting the spending requirement for the bonus, you’ll receive a Companion Fare for a friend or family member to travel with you to any destination where Alaska Airlines flies, such as Hawaii or the Caribbean, for just $99 plus taxes and fees from $23.
If you want to see where your Mileage Plan miles can take you, be sure to review the airline’s new distance-based award chart. You could book flights within the U.S. starting at 5,000 miles or head to Europe in business class from 55,000 miles — Alaska also allows free stopovers.
If you are still on the fence about whether the Alaska Airlines card should be the next card you apply for, check out these stories. But hurry, this offer ends Wednesday.
