$50 flight discount with $250 spend on AS credit card in June (targeted)
This seems like a really sweet deal. Both my husband and I got mailers today with a code to use to register for a $50 flight discount with a $250 spend in the month of June.
Ts and Cs include:
Allow up to 12 weeks from the end of the promotion for the $50 flight discount code to appear in your Alaska Airlines Mileage Plan online account.
The $50 flight discount code will expire one year from the date issued.

Good news for those targeted for the offer, but what are the Terms and Conditions for the $50 code?? I suspect it's not good on cheaper fare codes and it must be a round-trip ticket and the stars must be aligned in a certain way 
Since nearly 100% of my ticket purchases involve companion certs that can't be combined with another discount code, these offer very little value which is why I typically choose the 2,500 miles over $25 discount code when I get my late baggage guarantee.
I guess it's time for those of us who didn't get targeted for this offer (like me) to start whining about not getting "chosen", but I'll save my whining for the day I get served polenta for the first time on an AS flight

I'm neither.
It only says "The discount code can only be used on Alaska Airlines flights and is not valid on partner airlines." I take that to mean that the stars have aligned, it can be used on the cheapest fare, and it is good for one way.

I got mine in the mail today and it's tied to the AS card that has its annual fee coming up in June. I've never actually flown AS metal so I probably won't bother doing the spend.

Might be with the AF like krazykanuck mentioned. Got it via email and in the mailer today. My family member got it via mailer as well but not via email. Both of our AFs are due tomorrow.
