Alaska Airlines has launched a sweet promotion, where Mileage Plan members can earn double miles on several flights between September 1, 2017, through February 28, 2018. You can register on their site and view all eligible routes, however it’s mainly on their flights to/from California where they compete with Delta including flights to/from Los Angeles, San Francisco, Orange County, San Diego, San Jose, and Portland, OR.
Remember, Alaska Airlines is still one of the few US airlines that rewards fliers for miles based on the distance flown, rather than on how much the tickets cost, so to maximize on this offer, you’ll want to take advantage of their transcontinental flights or Hawaii flight to earn the most bonus miles. These miles are in addition to any bonus miles elite fliers on Alaska earn already.
