You can redeem your Alaska miles for travel on Alaska, Delta, American, British Airways, KLM/Air France, Cathay Pacific etc. etc. etc.
You can earn Alaska miles for travel on Alaska, Delta & American, and some international carriers.
Alaska like the Switzerland of air carriers --- lots of possibilities.
How much travel do you normally have in a year on AA?
