With this hefty cash outlay, you'd still think you'd get some sort of mileage credit. Otherwise, you might as well go for a free ticket which also earns no miles.

Still think Alaska Airlines is the best in the business but no miles for AS50 strikes me as a little severe.

I agree with this. For those of them who use them for a first class ticket that still costs over 500 dollars each way after the discount, I think we should at least get base miles.

We're still giving AS $500 smackers which is better than most of the people sitting in the back or the lucky slugs who managed to get U availability using certs by booking early.

Rethink this Alaska.
