Alaska Airlines is celebrating its 90th anniversary by giving the gift of travel to all employees.
, /PRNewswire/ — While many of us were told to stay home during the pandemic, airline employees were part of an essential workforce that remained on the front lines. Each day brought new challenges, regulations and precautions that our people had to navigate carefully while continuing to take care of our guests, our communities and each other.
As we move toward a new normal—joyfully seeing the surge of passengers eager to hop on a plane—Alaska takes a moment to thank each and every employee for their unwavering dedication to taking care of our guests over 90 years & counting, giving them 90,000 miles to fly anywhere in the world.
“As we celebrate 90 years of flying, we wouldn’t be where we are today without our incredible people working tirelessly to keep things moving, even throughout the global pandemic,” said CEO Ben Minicucci. “When you think about how many airlines have come and gone since 1932, it’s an amazing achievement that we’re still here and stronger than ever – thanks to the genuine care and hard work our people bring to our operations every day. “
The great thing about miles is that they never expire and give you the flexibility to travel not only on Alaska but also on our oneworld partners like British Airways, Qantas, Qatar Airways, Finnair and our other airline partners. Travel awards start at just 5,000 miles and can be used to book first class tickets, a relaxing hotel stay or tickets to an anticipated event – there are so many ways to use your air miles!
With 90,000 miles you can plan a trip almost anywhere in the world:
