Double Elite credit within California

Current promo is for double elite credit within CA. I’d like to get my wife to MVP. Say we book San Diego - Fresno and back. 313 miles but you get credited for 500 and then all that gets doubled so 2000 EQM for that R/T?

TIA

Didn’t get any email, and don’t see it on their homepage. They might be targeting Californians with this, but I was able to register. Thanks!

As to your question, I would expect the 500 EQM per segment to double. But perhaps someone else remembers how it worked for previous promos.

it’ below the scroll. For me it shows up as the rightmost of three boxes when I scroll, and is titled “double the fun in California “

However, I am guessing that, for MRs, a better bet is to fly from CA to Hawaii. Of course, one has to consider hotel costs too. But Hawaii is a place for fun.

The Alaska emails and website both use location heuristics and target certain locations. The emails probably use your address on file, and the website uses IP (among other things) to deduce a rough location even if you aren't explicitly giving permission through your browser to share your location. As someone who is an east coaster, I didn't get the promo email nor does it show on the front page for me.

Try this link. The original link doesn’t work for me anymore, but I still had the page open that it redirected to. And that one still works…
