Editor\u2019s note:<\/strong> Atmos Rewards redemptions on Philippine Airlines have been delayed until sometime in 2026. In addition, Alaska has preemptively devalued this partnership, as you can now only earn points on flights purchased directly through Alaska, rather than through other booking channels.<\/em><\/p>\n

There's a brand-new Alaska Airlines partner in town, and it goes by the name of Philippine Airlines. With this addition, the Mileage Plan partner list is nearing three dozen. Philippine Airlines is the 32nd carrier to partner with Alaska.<\/p>\n

Here\u2019s what to know about Alaska\u2019s newest partner and when you\u2019ll be able to start earning and redeeming miles on Philippine Airlines flights.<\/p>\n

Alaska Airlines Introduces Its Newest Partner: Philippine Airlines<\/span><\/h2>\n

On May 1, 2025<\/strong>, Alaska Airlines officially announced Philippine Airlines as the 32nd partner<\/a> of the Mileage Plan program. Because of this new partnership, Mileage Plan<\/a> members will soon be able to take advantage of Philippine Airlines\u2019 route network between the U.S. and the Philippines, as well as onward connections throughout Asia.<\/p>\n

Sometime soon (the exact date is unknown), Alaska will start listing Philippine Airlines flights on its website. This will include non-stop routes from Honolulu and major West Coast airports, such as Los Angeles, San Francisco, and Seattle, to Manila and beyond.<\/p>\n

What\u2019s interesting is that Philippine Airlines also operates flights from Toronto and New York to Manila. However, it\u2019s unclear if these routes will be included in the partnership. Alaska\u2019s announcement only highlighted service from the West Coast.<\/p>\n

Coming soon: Earn and redeem Alaska Miles on Philippine Airlines flights<\/span><\/h3>\n

Once live, Mileage Plan members will be able to earn and redeem miles on Philippine Airlines flights. While the earning rates haven\u2019t been published yet, we do have a sense of what award pricing will look like.<\/p>\n

Alaska uses distance-based partner award charts, and for flights between North America and the Asia Pacific region, the chart currently looks like this:<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\t\n\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t
Distance (miles)<\/th>Economy (starting at)<\/th>Premium Economy (starting at)<\/th>Business (starting at)<\/th>First (starting at)<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<\/thead>\n
Less than 1,500<\/td>7,500<\/td>10,000<\/td>15,000<\/td>22,500<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
1,501\u20133,000<\/td>25,000<\/td>32,500<\/td>50,000<\/td>75,000<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
3,001\u20135,000<\/td>30,000<\/td>40,000<\/td>60,000<\/td>90,000<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
5,001\u20137,000<\/td>37,500<\/td>50,000<\/td>75,000<\/td>110,000<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
7,001\u201310,000<\/td>42,500<\/td>55,000<\/td>85,000<\/td>130,000<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
10,000 and above<\/td>65,000<\/td>85,000<\/td>130,000<\/td>195,000<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n\n

Assuming Alaska applies this chart to Philippine Airlines award flights, you should soon be able to book a one-way ticket from the West Coast to Manila for 42,500 miles in economy or 85,000 miles in business class.<\/p>\n

Final Thoughts<\/span><\/h2>\n

The Alaska Airlines partner network is growing once again \u2014 this time with the addition of Philippine Airlines. Starting later this year, Mileage Plan members will be able to use miles for award flights on the airline or earn miles on paid tickets. Once an official launch date is announced, we\u2019ll update this post with the latest details.<\/p>\n

In the meantime, you can build your Alaska Mileage Plan balance by getting an Alaska credit card<\/a>.<\/p>\n
