Flight Pass credits can be redeemed for travel on nonstop Alaska Airlines flights within California or between California and Nevada, Arizona, or Utah.

As a subscriber, you pay a fixed monthly rate and any associated fares, taxes or fees on the flights you select:

• Monthly fee. You commit to 12 monthly payments at the price applicable when you sign -up. This price will not change during the commitment period. The monthly payment entitles you to credits which can be redeemed for travel on eligible Alaska Airlines flights.
• Flight fare. Most eligible flights are included as part of your membership at a fare of only one cent ($0.01). These flights appear as Included when searching for travel. Occasionally a flight will require an additional premium access fare. In order to offer a great deal on the vast majority of flights and avoid the use of blackouts, Alaska requires this higher fare on some of our most popular flights.
• Taxes & fees. All flyers, regardless of how they bought their ticket, are required to pay some government taxes and airport fees. For all flights eligible with Flight Pass, these total to $15.11 each way. These include: US Flight Segment tax, US Transportation tax, Passenger Facility charge, and the September 11th Security fee. You will pay these fees upon credit redemption for each leg of your journey. Want to know how much each plan will cost you in total? View the pricing table in our Terms & Conditions.
