Alaska's Europe partners seem to start at 15,000 each way intra-Europe, so would not be double without additional earning.
Intra-Europe flights are generally best bought by cash as you have noticed elsewhere. On a CPH-HAJ itinerary, the train cost almost equals the taxes on the award. Time-wise also there isn't much difference, as the flights involve a connection.
