Alaska Airlines Mileage Plan members can save up to 50% on select award redemptions booked over the next few weeks, thanks to the Global Getaway promotion. This recurring promotion, which first launched in 2024, offers new deals every quarter.

This iteration of Global Getaways is offering discounts on partner award travel to multiple international destinations, and on Alaska Airlines itself to a destination in Mexico. This time around, the destinations include those that are renowned for culinary experiences.

Let’s explore the details.

Alaska Airlines Global Getaways — Q2 2025

The latest Global Getaways promotion from Alaska Airlines allows Mileage Plan members to save up to 50% on select international award redemptions. This recurring promotion offers new destinations and deals 4 times per year, and you can use these offers to save when redeeming Alaska miles for flights.

Under the terms of its current offering, Mileage Plan members can save on international partner awards to select destinations booked between June 1 and June 30, 2025. These deals are good for travel between August 1 and November 15, 2025.

Here’s a look at one-way prices for the current Global Getaways promotion, which includes both economy and premium economy:

SCROLL FOR MORE

Destination	Global Getaways Starting Price	Regular Starting Price
Bangkok, Thailand (BKK)	30,000 miles	42,500
Buenos Aires, Argentina (AEP and EZE)	20,000 miles	25,000
Lisbon, Portugal (LIS)	22,500 miles	22,500
Naples, Italy (NAP)	20,000 miles	25,000
Monterrey, Mexico (MTY)	10,000 miles	10,000
Tbilisi, Georgia (TBS)	25,000 miles	42,500

The regular pricing varies greatly, depending on where you’re flying from, since Alaska Airlines now uses distance-based award pricing.

Taxes and fees are not discounted. You should also note that 50% is the maximum possible discount, but in many practical cases the actual reduction compared to regular award pricing is less.

Monterrey, Mexico (MTY) is the only destination among the 6 current Global Getaways served by Alaska Airlines itself, not by one of its (many) partners. Alaska offers nonstop service to Monterrey from Los Angeles (LAX).

How To Earn Alaska Airlines Mileage Plan Miles

Historically, Alaska Airlines Mileage Plan miles have been relatively hard to earn since they couldn’t be transferred 1:1 from any major program. However, that changed when Bilt added Alaska as a 1:1 transfer partner in 2024. (You also can transfer Marriott Bonvoy points to Alaska Airlines, but only at a 3:1 ratio.)

So now, in addition to earning Alaska Airlines miles through flying, Alaska Airlines credit cards, Mileage Plan Shopping, Mileage Plan Dining, and transferring from Marriott, you can transfer Bilt points to Alaska Airlines.

And with the new partnership between Alaska Airlines and Hawaiian Airlines, you can transfer miles 1:1 between programs freely and instantly. That means you can transfer Membership Rewards points to Hawaiian and then move those over to Alaska Airlines — for now. That option is ending on June 30 when Amex transfers to Hawaiian will go away.

Hot Tip:

Periodically, you can buy Alaska miles at a discounted rate, and it could be well worth the price if you find it’s cheaper to redeem miles than pay the cash rate. Bookmark our monthly purchase point promotions guide so you know when the next sale comes around.
