I just got off the phone with BA and was approved for the personal Visa Signature card. I guess that much is good.

I applied and was approved with a 10K limit. No prior experience with Alaska Airlines, though their relationship with Delta and American will be beneficial to me.

Cancelling the card
Here is a silly question. With Alaska Airlines credit card, if I cancel the card before I use my bonus 40,000 miles, would the miles be automatically cancelled?
I know the answer varies depending on the airline, so if anyone knows specifically regarding Alaska Air it would be greatly helpful.

Are you talking about canceling now or at renewal? If you cancel immediately (before paying the annual fee) they might take back the miles, but if you pay the annual fee and wait until renewal to cancel you're safe. Plus you get another companion certificate at renewal (even if you cancel and don't pay the annual fee) so definitely better to wait until then to cancel.

Decided to apply last minute as part of a small app-o-rama; was approved instantly online with a $15k limit, hope to have the card soon. I'll update once I receive it and hopefully have the 40k bonus miles posted right away.
