Alaska launches subscription service for West Coast travel.
Alaska Airlines has debuted Flight Pass, an innovative subscription-based travel offering that aims to provide more value and flexibility to travellers for West Coast destinations.
By buying a flight pass – either the standard ‘Flight Pass’ or the upgraded ‘Flight Pass Pro’ – subscribers will be able to fly up to 24 roundtrip flights per year.
Customers are able to travel between 16 West Coast cities for a starting sum of only $49 per month.
“Flight Pass builds on our mission to offer travellers the most West Coast destinations at the best value,” said Alex Corey, Managing Director of Business Development and Products for Alaska Airlines.

“Our commitment to care means offering convenient and affordable options that fit our guests’ lifestyle and connect them to where they want to go. After two years of staying close to home, guests are ready to travel again and with 100 daily flights from 16 airports throughout California and between California to Reno, Phoenix and Las Vegas, Flight Pass will take them there.”
Depending on which annual plan is chosen, subscribers will receive credits deposited monthly or bi-monthly into their Flight Pass account, to be redeemed for 6, 12 or 24 nonstop trips a year to eligible destinations.
