Ok I have answers.
  1. The PAE-PDX flight is a positioning flight and was not meant to be bookable by anyone. It isn't the inaugural flight, PAE-LAS is. The Portland flight never should have been on the blog, and I never should have been able to sweet talk my way onto it. The blog post's been updated and no longer mentions the PDX flight.
  2. The PAE-LAS flight isn't bookable online because Alaska knows that people booked the Feb 11th version because it's the first flight. They are trying to re-accommodate everyone on the new inaugural flight. I just broke things for me when I called in (rather than waiting to be called) and cancelling/attempting to re-book.
  3. I am now back on the PAE-LAS flight and all is right with the world.
