It's actually Alaska Airlines.

Just go there and change the origin/destination and departure date to see a (hopefully) clean list of results.
Let me know if I'm missing an airline or four so that I may update the URL accordingly. Also would you consider Alaskan (aka Seattle Airways/Seattleite) to be a MR airline (there were a number of airlines that I was on the fence about)?
Now if I can only find a way to get flights to banish all those basic economy fares we'd be off to the races!
Safe Travels,

Thanks for doing this. For mileage earning potential, GF has an option to allow you to filter by alliance.
Some airlines you have omitted I feel should be included, as they have FF earning opportunities despite not being in a major alliance.
Alaska should be on the list, especially in the present days where many airlines have changed earning criteria to revenue-based.
