Alaska Airlines has added Singapore Airlines as
a global partner. On Sept. 27, Alaska's Mileage Plan and Singapore Airlines'
KrisFlyer will begin offering reciprocal mileage accrual. Reciprocal redemption
will come at a later date. Singapore Airlines already offered loyalty program
reciprocity with Virgin America, which Alaska has acquired and will have absorbed
by next year. Alaska Airlines and Singapore Airlines also are seeking
government approvals for a codeshare partnership, which will enable seamless
ticketing and baggage handling through Alaska's Los Angeles and San Francisco hubs.
