Alternate Fares

Alaska's Main fares are usually around $10-$35 more each way and include a wider selection of seats to choose from and allow ticket changes/upgrades for a fee. Checked bag fees are the same $30 each way.

Other major airlines that are matching are mostly Basic Economy fares with similar restrictions. The main difference is that United's Basic Economy only includes a small personal item. Southwest does not sell Basic Economy and includes two free checked bags.

Example Booking

As an example, I found seats departing San Francisco SFO on March 2 returning from Everett on March 5 for $112.30 roundtrip, which is cheaper than the listed price of $138. Compare rates because flights may be less expensive than Alaska features.
