We're excited to share that you can now earn and redeem miles for flights on Hawaiian Airlines. Mileage Plan elites also have access to select benefits when flying on Hawaiian Airlines including priority check-in, priority boarding, complimentary bags, complimentary preferred seats, and Extra Comfort seats (at check-in, when available).
Also, Mileage Plan members with an existing HawaiianMiles account can match or boost their status across both loyalty programs. However, if you don’t have elite-qualifying miles in an existing HawaiianMiles account, there’s no need to link accounts.
Later this year, HawaiianMiles and Mileage Plan will be integrated into a single loyalty program. We’ll share more details this summer.
We’ve already introduced several new generous benefits this year, including milestone rewards and benefit selection, more ways to earn elite qualifying miles, and the ability to use your miles toward unforgettable experiences with Mileage Plan Unlocked. You’ll continue to enjoy the benefits you know and love throughout 2025.
No. Your miles will keep the same value and quantity. There are no changes to how you redeem miles.
Club 49 benefits will continue unchanged. If you're a current Club 49 member, you don't need to take any action to keep your benefits.
You now receive one free checked bag for yourself and up to six guests on the same reservation when flying on Hawaiian Airlines-operated flights (when you use your card to book). You also earn 3 miles per $1 spent when booking Hawaiian Airlines flights through alaskaair.com. These benefits apply to both Alaska Airlines Visa Signature® and Alaska Airlines Visa® Business cardholders.
Additional card benefits for Hawaiian Airlines-operated flights are expected to roll out later in 2025.
Starting this summer, guests can use their Alaska Airlines Visa Signature® or Alaska Airlines Visa® Business companion fare on any Alaska Airlines or Hawaiian Airlines-operated flight within North America. Bookings must be made through alaskaair.com. Stay tuned for more details about this expanded benefit in the coming months.
If you only have an Alaska Mileage Plan account: No action is needed. Your Mileage Plan account will automatically be used in the new combined program.

Make sure you have an account in both HawaiianMiles and Alaska’s Mileage Plan. Miles can only be transferred between accounts owned by the same individual.
Simply use the frequent flyer number associated with the airline that you are flying. For example, if you are flying on Hawaiian Airlines or a HawaiianMiles partner, use your HawaiianMiles number. If you are flying on Alaska or an Alaska Global partner, use your Alaska Mileage Plan number.

While we expect an increase in elite travelers, we will still prioritize the upgrade waitlist for Alaska flights based on your loyalty. Priority will be determined by tier, Million Miler status, and elite-qualifying miles earned.
We’ll share more details about enhanced benefits on Hawaiian-operated flights soon.
When our two programs merge, your lifetime flown miles on Alaska and Hawaiian Airlines will count toward the Million Miler milestone. If your combined total exceeds 1 million miles, you'll become eligible for Million Miler benefits immediately.
In the meantime, Hawaiian flights you credit to Mileage Plan will already count toward your Million Miler status.
When our two programs come together, we will also combine your lifetime miles across both programs toward the Million Miler milestone. At that time, if your combined lifetime flown miles balance exceeds 1 million miles, you will immediately become eligible for Million Miler benefits. In the meantime, any Hawaiian flights you credit to Mileage Plan already count toward Million Miler.
