Alaska Airlines and Hawaiian Airlines now have a combined loyalty program, named Atmos Rewards. You can earn status with the program by racking up status points, but beyond that, those status points can also unlock extra rewards, including milestone perks.
For passing certain thresholds, members can choose which benefits they like most. The idea is that some perks have been decoupled from traditional elite tiers, to provide more flexibility. Let’s go over the details.
The benefit of bonus points is especially useful if you’re just loyal to Atmos Rewards because you think it’s a great oneworld program, and you don’t actually fly Alaska or Hawaiian metal that much. Just as an example, between 10,000 status points and 125,000 status points, you could rack up a total of 88,250 bonus points with milestone rewards. That’s a pretty significant haul.
