I will be flying home tonight after spending some quality time with family. The wedding was beautiful and the bride and groom looked very happy. Cathy, the minister that performed the ceremony, told me to watch for any cheap flights to Burbank. While I don't necessarily have a cheap flight for her, I do have a $50 discount that can be used by any of my California readers. Cathy is not a California resident but she could conceivably use the information at the bottom of this blog to avoid the California residency requirement. Is it wrong to tell a minister how to avoid a requirement?
- Register for Mileage Plan as a California resident by October 26 (though it’s conceivable that Alaska could pull the offer earlier).
- You’ll receive an email with the $50 discount within 48 hours of registration.
- Discount must be used for the Mileage Plan member’s travel only.
- Valid for travel between September 5 and November 10 for travel departing from California, and excludes travel to Prudhoe Bay.
It’s the requirement that travel must originate in California that presumably helps them limit non-California residents from registering with a California address. Though I wonder how well that will work, since Alaska generally prices roundtrips simply as two one-ways and the terms and conditions don’t state a roundtrip requirement, one could use the discount on a trip to California as well — buying a one-way to California and using the discount on a one-way return flight should work.
