Benefits

We believe in providing employees with attractive, meaningful, and useful benefits. In addition to market-based pay and annual gain sharing programs, we make sure our benefits packages are North of Expected™, extending eligibility for an exciting array of perks and privileges to employee family members as well, including:

  • Travel: Alaska Airlines and Horizon Air were among the first airlines to provide employees, including domestic partners full flight and travel benefits. Domestic partners, spouses and family members also qualify for partner carrier reduced fares with more than 30 other airlines. Further, children of domestic partnerships are included in our full flight privilege program.
  • Health: Much like our travel privileges, our health benefits include full coverage for the employee, spouse or partner, and applicable children.
  • Discounts: Our employees are able to tap into a vast discount program, thanks to our partnerships with over 150 different companies. From tech products like Dell and Apple, to amusement parks like Disneyland and SeaWorld to dining at your favorite restaurants such as McCormick and Schmick's, we have something for everybody!
