It IS beginning to look a lot like Christmas in airports and in the air. Here are some of the fun holiday items we spotted today.
Alaska Airlines’ Holiday Perks
Alaska Airlines has a new special-edition aircraft in the skies decorated with snowflakes, the words “Merrier Together,” and those festive red Starbucks holiday cups.
Through December 12, passengers on 50 of this aircraft’s flights will receive reusable holiday cups and some bonus treats. The airline will also be offsetting the carbon impacts of these flights.

On National Ugly Sweater Day – December 17 – the airline will be offering early boarding to any passengers wearing an ugly sweater.

And throughout December, passengers wearing ugly sweaters may purchase a day pass to any of the airline’s eight lounges around the country for $25, which is 50% off the regular price. The lounges are located in Anchorage (ANC), New York (JFK), Portland (PDX), San Francisco (SFO), Los Angeles (LAX), and Seattle (SEA).

Look who we spotted goofing off in the flight deck after landing at RNO. Could this be who Amelia Bearhart is waiting for? We love being a part of reunions with loved ones during the holiday season and all year round.#RNOCares #flyRNO #BearintheAir2021 #Elfontheshelf2021 pic.twitter.com/tKTF59wVmb
