Alaska Airlines has shared (some) details about a premium credit card it plans to launch in 2025.
It plans to offer 3X on dining and all foreign purchases (unique!!) with no foreign transaction fees and offer an accelerated path to status.
It also promises a Companion Fare good for award tickets including partner airlines. To me, the value prop there hinges on if premium cabins are included, although it’s still going to have value in economy for many.
If you sign up for the waitlist, and I cannot see why you would not as there is no obligation to apply later, you’ll get 500 miles now and 5,000 on top of the eventual signup bonus. I just did this myself.
Thoughts?
