If it will be difficult for you to complete it, perhaps you should consider a different airline.

Just realized you said you asked the FA if any were available. What route was this? If you were in First on a flight that had food, you should have been offered one when she came around to take food and drink orders.

That's great, but my arrival time at SEA is completely in the hands of Alaska as I am connecting in SEA and thus arriving on an AS flight.
Did they really send this SMS and a long email with irrelevant information about baggage checks and TSA peak hours to everyone who is connecting in SEA tomorrow?!

I took advice here and signed up for Alaska BofA credit card. It provided for 70,000 miles and a free companion certificate for $3k spend.
i completed the spend and got the 70,000 miles in my Alaska Air account last week. However, I see nothing about the companion certificate. Anyone know how I would find that certificate?

Hopefully you got this sorted by now, but I am just now looking at the offer in the seat pocket of my AS flight. And it definitely includes the companion cert for the initial $3k spend. The subsequent certs then require $6k in spend. But no guarantees that this was the same with your offer, too.

While going through old boxes of “stuff” to get rid of things, I came across an envelope with my UA MileagePlus history, sent to me by United in 2008. It basically has all the flights that hit my UA account from 1994 onwards (until 2008). Nice - will help me add historic flights to my.flightradar24.com.
Is there a way to get AS to produce a similar data dump? I assume not (even UA stopped doing that years ago), but thought I would ask. My first AS flight was 1994 or so, but I have no record of it (I suspect I booked it on the phone back then).
