This fare only meets our 6 cents per mile criterion if you are a Washington state resident and sign up for Delta’s Seattle Double Miles promotion or Alaska’s Double Miles promotion. There’s wide availability for Summer travel including the 4th of July weekend!

The Delta and Alaska promotions are both double miles for redeemable mileage earning, but only the Delta promotion is also elite status mileage earning.
