Alaska Airline Wedding Travel Discounts


Who wants to be my bride, or groom, or broom, or gride?
I'll call Alaska Tuesday Morning and get a discount code for the March event, and I'll publish it here, and there.  Ditto with American.  Requested a discount code#.
From Expert Emily:

For group discounts on Alaska and American airlines, contact their group/meeting sales dept. or see

or

Discounts we got were 10% for Alaska and 5% for American.  Contacted all the other domestic airlines serving PVR but all the others had more restrictive policies (business groups only, deposit required, prepaid tickets required, etc. etc.). 

Discounts covered all travel on their airline to a particular destination airport during a two-week window.   They ask you to assure them that at least 10 people will fly to your event on their airline, but they don't follow up on the #s.  I think we had more than 10 people get the Alaska discount for the wedding, but pretty sure we didn't have 10 on American but guests got the discount anyway. 

We just signed up on the airline websites and within a few days had a discount code that guests could use when buying tickets.  I think the code only worked for online ticket sales.
