How does Wine Flies Free™ work?

  • Wine flies for free on flights departing from our 32 airports in Washington, Oregon, Idaho, or California to any Alaska Airlines city in the United States.
  • You must be 21 or older.
  • Add your Mileage Plan number to your reservation to make sure your first case of wine won't count towards your checked baggage allowance.
  • Make sure your purchases are properly packed for the trip home — in a case or box, with packing material such as styrofoam, cardboard liners, or bubble wrap .
  • Check your properly packed case of wine with an Alaska Airlines customer service agent at our ticketing counter. A helpful hint: We consider one case of wine to be a single box or case containing up to 12 bottles and weighing 50 lbs or less.

Bringing wine luggage with you? Please note if you're flying from a non-participating city to one of our Wine Flies Free destinations, all luggage incurs standard checked bag fees. Only flights departing from the destinations listed above are eligible for Wine Flies Free.

How do I pack my wine to fly?

1. The wine must be packed and sealed for transport in a protective shipping container.
