Alaska's Frequent Flyer Program Rated Best Overall For Second Year
in a Row SEATTLE, May 3 /PRNewswire/ -- The Alaska Airlines Mileage
Plan was named Frequent Flyer Program of the Year at the 16th
Annual Freddie Awards last week. The awards, voted on by frequent
flyers across the nation, also gave Alaska top marks for "Best
Newsletter" (The Traveler and alaskaair.com newsletter).
Additionally, Alaska came in a close second in total votes for
three additional categories: "Best Elite Level," "Best Website" and
"Best Affinity Credit Card." Voters mentioned Alaska's expanded
route network, reasonable award levels, lucrative bonus promotions
and outstanding customer service as reasons for Mileage Plan's top
rating. "We're incredibly excited to win this award for the second
year in a row," said Ann Ardizzone, Alaska's managing director of
marketing programs, who accepted the awards in New York. "It's a
tribute to a lot of dedicated people here who continue to keep our
most important customers' wants and needs in mind." Created by
InsideFlyer magazine publisher Randy Peterson in 1988, the Freddies
are considered among the most prestigious consumer-generated awards
in the airline industry. The awards are named after Sir Freddie
Laker, a commercial aviation pioneer from England who founded
Britain's first all-jet air carrier, Laker Airways Limited in 1966.
