Update 1/18/23: You can get an additional $100 statement credit by using a link found when booking Alaska flights. I’ve added that link to the post.

A lot of these details are from recent changes.
Our Verdict
Previously the best deal was 60,000+$100. Most people will prefer this 70,000 offer. (We did see recently 70k + $100, but I think that offer ended up being a targeted.) We’ll add this to our list of the best credit card bonuses.
They keep vacillating on the $6,000 spend requirement for the Companion Fare: they had added that in, then scrapped it, and now it’s showing again on this application link.
