Also flew out of ANC earlier this morning and the Lounge was still open (no signage or communication about the closure yet).

Question: is the $100 lounge discount offered as a 30K milestone combinable with the Visa lounge membership discount?

It is not. From the T&C (https://www.alaskaair.com/content/mi...erks-selection)

Alaska Lounge membership discountValid for $100 off the purchase of an annual Alaska Lounge or Lounge+ membership. Not combinable with other Alaska Lounge or Lounge+ membership discounts, including the Alaska Visa Signature consumer or Visa Business cardholder $100 off Lounge+ benefit.

So it appears direct SFO AS flights to/from HNL are no longer available, only 2 HA direct flights to and from. As a Lounge + member, do I no longer get nonpaid member access at the Alaska Lounge at SFO and the AA Lounge at HNL if flying direct flights on HA?
Edit, I found on AS website I can access SFO when flying Hawaiian. Still do not see anything regarding access to AA Lounge though.

Main lounge. They are new in 2025.

I'll have to follow up with this. I fly thru again the next two days.

Correct. AS lounge access permitted. AA not (for now). If you matched to HA, you might get access to the HA HNL lounge.

Alaska is still flying the route on their own metal from now until March 18th. I would stick with the AS lounge at SFO as it is better than the AA lounge, IMO.

I was referring to the AA/JAL in HNL that I would lose access to if flying direct flight on HA to SFO.

Talked to the ANC folks this morning.

The shift to the "temporary" lounge starts the 10th. They are supposed to be back to the new lounge February 1st.

I'm not holding my breath 😂

Ugh, that's frustrating about the ANC lounge as I'll be there on the 18th and 19th January.

I think in "anticipation" of the ANC move, selections have changed already.

Check out these breakfast wraps. They do have a microwave front and center too.


Apparently the veggie was loaded with mushrooms

Hopefully they'll be able to move the pancake machine to the temporary lounge.
