Question Is the 3,000 AS bonus miles for Rocketmiles long-term?

I found this:
https://www.rocketmiles.com/mileage-..._source=alaska

It states that March 31, 2018 is the deadline to take advantage of the bonus. I'm wondering whether this bonus opportunity keeps extending?

I would also take a good look at what you are paying to get those 3000 miles. The few times I compared prices, the rocketmiles hotel rates were quite a bit higher than what one would pay going through the property's website.

technically if you’re only trying to get the bonus, for a one night stay you would earn a minimum 4,000 AS miles (3,000 + 1,000). I have sometimes found really good value in some places so it is certainly worth a look.

Yes, that's what I did. Earlier this month, a hotel I wanted to stay at cost $30 more through Rocketmiles than Orbitz, so I thought I would save my first booking for 3,000 miles for next time.
