Here’s what to know about the Alaska Airlines acquisition of Hawaiian Airlines

Updated: 16 minutes agoAll the chatter in the airline break room is about the Alaska Airlines acquisition of Hawaiian Airlines.

According to Alaska Air’s news releases, it will take 12-18 months to integrate Hawaiian Airlines with the Alaska Air Group. The group includes both Alaska Airlines and Horizon Air. When traveling on partner airlines, though, it costs more miles and you earn fewer miles when flying.

American Express offers a flexible spend plan where cardholders can move their points to many different airlines, including Delta, Emirates and Hawaiian. After the mileage “swapability” between Alaska and Hawaiian goes live, American Express cardholders can move their points to Hawaiian ... and then to Alaska Airlines.

In fact, New Pacific Airlines recently retrofitted their 757s to anIn the near term, it’s hard to see Hawaiian dedicating a wide-body aircraft to fly between Anchorage and Asia. But Alaska’s CEO, Ben Minicucci,, particularly from Seattle. Does that mean that Alaska-Tokyo flights are on the table? Stranger things have happened.
