Dumb but simple question

Or if you used the services of a travel agent. That's who usually gets it in there for me.

If you book on Alaska's website I believe there is a spot to enter your Skymiles number. If not, just call them and they'll add it.

Save your boarding pass!
Just in case Alaska does not apply you Delta FF # correctly, hang on to your boarding passes. Worst case scenario, you fax in a copy to Delta Skymiles and it will post in a couple business days.

Yup. I just got off an AS flight that I booked the other day when the NW website was down. When you go through the purchase process on line there is a spot (on the second page I believe) where it asks for your AS frequent flyer number. That field is a pull down with all of the partners and you enter it there. Have never had an issue getting the credit though it sometimes takes a week.
