Give me a museum and I'll fill it. (Picasso) Give me a forum ...
I was recently traveling with a friend on Alaska Airlines. They mentioned a 72,000 point bonus for signing up with their BofA credit card, free 1st checked bag for each traveler, as well as the yearly companion fare which can be a great deal when flying to many locations. My friend was considering getting the card.
But..... It seems that the companion fair now requires one to spend $6000 on the credit card each year to qualify. Nobody mentioned that. It's there in the fine print. OOPS! Sorry. No deal.
Just a word to the wise.
Edited to add: From what I can tell if you had the Alaska CC before they made these changes last month you are grandfathered in to the old companion fare deal which had no yearly spend requirement.
