As an additional resource for these cards see the threads here: Current Alaska Airlines Card Offers. Previous 2012-2016 Alaska Airlines Card Offers.
If you are applying for a personal AS card, and are not an expert on applying for A/S cards STOP, don't apply yet. Instead read post #3688 in the other AS thread linked above. Believe me, doing that first may save you a huge amount of wasted time and frustration.

$100 stmt. credit link for 30K card & $22 CF pass:https://secure.bankofamerica.com/applynow/welcome.go Now active, as of 7/19/17

Can you book Cathay flights using AS miles? Probably NOT:

Update. Second Alaska Visa 25k bonus posted.
So in summary:
Apr2 Successfully applied for 2 Personal cards using 2bt.
Apr5 My Alaska account shows posting of 20k/5k bonus posting with transaction date of Apr3.
Apr20 My Alaska account shows posting of 20k/5k bonus posting with transaction date of Apr11.

Data point.
Apr2 Successfully applied for 2 Personal cards using 2bt. Online approved for both cards and looking at BOA credit app status, it shows I have 2 Alaska Visas approved.
Apr5 My Alaska account shows posting of 20k/5k bonus posting with transaction date of Apr3.
Now it's morning April 13, still no sign of 2nd bonus. I've been away from home on a international trip and when I get home in 2 weeks, I'll check to make sure I got both physical cards and spend the $1000 on each to get the $100 statement credit.
For people that applied for 2 personal cards using 2bt, did you normally get both sign up bonuses same time? I'm hoping to use the 50k bonus miles for an trip with travel date of June 3 and so I'm checking my Alaska account daily in hopes of the 2nd bonus posting any day now.

Alaska/BofA is giving 2500 miles for referring friends to their credit card. If anyone is thinking of applying, I'm more than happy to refer you and get those miles! Just send me a PM with your name & email address.

Sounds like they'll be shorted the $100 while you'll benefit 2,500 miles. Not really worth it.

How long for business miles bonus to post? I've read 4-6 days as well as 1 week after statement cuts, anyone have any recent experience?

Applied accidentally for 3 (first two apps took me back to the Alaska home page with no approval showing) on 4/24. BOA says all 3 approved for 20,000 limit, except only 2 really got approved, not sure exactly. Two are showing up in my BOA account log-in.
No miles have posted yet in my alaska account. Presently have a mileage plus account with around 55,000 miles in it. Last time they posted very quickly.

Does anyone know how you can get a workinglink code for the version of thr card that comes with the $100 statement credit? I purchased a regular ticket from Alaska and the link I got in my confirmation email didn't include the statement credit.
