How can I select a seat with Alaska Airlines?

Alaska seat selection depends on fare, flight, seat inventory and traveler benefits. Saver and partner-operated itineraries can have different assignment timing or restrictions.

Important exceptions

  • Saver and other fare products can use different assignment timing.
  • Only a current loyalty status or card benefit attached to this traveler and ticket should be applied.

What to do next

  1. Fare product

    Read the fare shown on the current Alaska ticket.

  2. Traveler benefit

    Verify current loyalty status or card benefit for this passenger.

  3. Operating carrier

    Resolve each partner-operated flight separately.

  4. Seat inventory

    Use the current eligible seat map rather than an earlier result.
