Howdy. Considering a gig with weekly commuting NYC-SFO in First/Business Class. Alaska seems to offer a great combination of schedule and fares (but no lie-flat seats). Does the airline have a program whereby I can pay in a large amount upfront and get immediate status? Something in the order of $50,000 is what I'm thinking, but happy to do less if that amount no required. Does anyone know a department I can call to inquire about this?

I'd be looking for the highest tier elite status, since I think(?) they offer free ticket changes, which would be beneficial in this position.

This would be akin to AA's AirPass or UA's PassPlus.

Thanks!
