It's a tough call. I am wondering the same thing - as this virus stuff starts hitting. Not sure what the answer is. Airlines are businesses, and suffer form the same fears....I do have even thought about backing off travel in the short term.

I think this is a really smart move by Alaska.

Sorry put my query in the wrong thread.
Oops maybe I didn't....
I have a question, I have never had to change my flight on Alaska, but the way the waiver seems to work, am I correct that they collect the change fee on the back-end (when you rebook using the travel wallet credit) or do they take the fee on the front-end (when you cancel the ticket)?
