Alaska Airlines has rolled out a special offer for travelers looking to visit winter destinations at a lower cost through its Global Getaways program. This limited-time deal provides up to 50% savings on award flights to cities like Vienna, Zurich, and Geneva, allowing Mileage Plan members to redeem fewer miles. Travelers must book by December 31, 2024, for trips scheduled between January 1 and April 30, 2025.

This promotion has made award travel significantly more affordable for Mileage Plan members. Flights to cities such as Geneva and Vienna now require only 20,000 miles, a major drop from the previous 30,000 miles. Similarly, Zurich flights start at 20,000 miles. Routes to Kelowna, Canada, and Almaty, Kazakhstan, also feature reduced mileage requirements, making international trips a more viable option for travelers on a budget.

This creates exciting chances to discover winter destinations. Vienna captivates visitors with its rich history, iconic architecture, and magical winter markets that come alive during the season. Zurich, on the other hand, is a haven for winter sports lovers, offering breathtaking Alpine views and excellent skiing options. Meanwhile, Geneva blends its cosmopolitan charm with nearby snowy peaks, making it an ideal destination for both urban exploration and winter adventures.

Travelers now have expanded opportunities to visit destinations like Yerevan in Armenia and Almaty in Kazakhstan. Yerevan impresses with its centuries-old landmarks, bustling markets, and rich culinary traditions. Almaty, meanwhile, is a gateway to snow-covered mountains, offering skiing, hiking, and breathtaking winter landscapes. These locations provide unforgettable travel experiences for adventurers looking to explore off-the-beaten-path regions this winter season.

This development offers Mileage Plan members a valuable chance to stretch their loyalty miles further. The reduced award rates open doors for travelers to explore new destinations, experience diverse cultures, or enjoy a refreshing winter escape. By making international travel more accessible, Alaska Airlines enables more people to take advantage of affordable flights and create unforgettable memories in top winter hotspots around the globe.
