Alaska Airlines from Wiley Post–Will Rogers Memorial Airport to Rickenbacker International Airport

"Wiley Post-Will Rogers Memorial Airport" might sound like the kind of place that you'd only find in a John Green novel, but guess what? It's real. Now, I can almost see your furrowed brows as you frantically Google to see if I'm pulling your leg. And the best part is, you're going to fly from there, to none other than the Rickenbacker International Airport. Now let me tell you why, and how you’re going to do it.

First off, did you know that stowing away your virtual carry-on of worries is absolutely free when you fly with Alaska Airlines? That's right, as far as baggage allowance goes, your emotional luggage flies free! They might not be too lenient on your actual baggage allowance though, so pack light or prepare to dive into those savings.

What about in-flight services, you ask? Well, my fellow flyers, imagine propping open a Paul Theroux novel, sipping on chilled tomato juice and staring out the window at the dense Alaskan rainforests below. Remember, Alaska is the only state in the U.S that is home to both Polar Bears and Black Bears. Just let that sink in! Just on the off chance that you're not a bear enthusiast, rest easy knowing in-flight services also include a specially crafted ‘Flight Deals Gazette’ so you can figure out your next spontaneous escape while mid-air.

Oh, but what if you have an unanticipated hiccup in your plans? Alaska Airline’s Flight cancellation policy is like your favourite pair of stretchy pants: super flexible! You can go from virtually "on board" to "not boarding" quicker than an Alaskan King Crab can scuttle sideways. However, I strongly recommend not making a habit out of cancelling, or you risk becoming a frequent flyer suspect.

Unsure of when is the best time to book? Isn’t it obvious that there’s no better time than now? Unless you are a time traveller, in which case, we need to have a chat. But for everyone else, let me offer you a pro-tip: booking your flight roughly two months in advance can get you the best airfare deal. So keep that in mind, unless you like your bank balance going on a down-spiral – in that case proceed at will!

And let me debunk one myth for you here: think cheap flights means ‘cheap’ quality? Well, not with Alaska Airlines. Their Economy class rivals some Airline’s Business class. OK, I may be slightly exaggerating there, but you get the drift. From comfortable seats to heart-warming staff, they leave no clouds unturned in aiming for your comfort.

Do you have a fear of stopovers and layovers? Fear not, because we are talking about non-stop flights here, my friend! From Wiley Post-Will Rogers Memorial Airport to Rickenbacker International Airport, it's a smooth sail... or should I say, smooth 'fly'? No layovers, no need for connecting flights, no unintentional aerial tours of strange little towns you've never heard of before! Unless that's your thing, of course.

So as you can see, Alaska Airlines is clearly the way to go. Whether you're flying one-way or embarking on a round-trip, make sure you do it Alaskan style! ”
