Link: Apply now for the Atmos™ Rewards Summit Visa Infinite® Credit Card
We recently saw the launch of the $395 annual fee Atmos™ Rewards Summit Visa Infinite® Credit Card (review), which is the new premium personal credit card of Alaska & Hawaiian, coinciding with the introduction of the Atmos Rewards program.
There are lots of reasons to get this card, from a huge welcome bonus, to the great perks and rewards for spending on an ongoing basis. It’s a card I’ve already applied for.
In this post, I’d like to talk about how the Atmos Rewards Summit Card offers a partner redemption booking fee waiver. Personally, this is a benefit that goes a long way to helping me offset the annual fee, so let’s take a look at the logistics, as I’ve received some questions about it.
In this post:
I often speculatively lock in these awards too, and without the card, I’d be on the hook for losing the $12.50 non-refundable fee. That’s not a huge deal, but of course if I can avoid it, I will.
Just as an example, below are the reservations confirmations I’ve received from Atmos Rewards since in the last two months alone. As you can see, that’s nine award tickets, so that’s $112.50 in fees.

With Atoms Rewards having increasingly moved to a program where the best value redemptions are for short haul awards, the frequency with which I redeem has also increased, and that makes the $12.50 waived fee all the more valuable.
A great solo travel tip spotted this week on One Mile at a Time.
