Alaska Airlines Offering Free Lift Tickets at 8 North American Ski Resorts This Season

Alaska Airlines has a unique program this season allowing you to ski free at eight different North American ski resorts this season by showing your boarding pass at the ticket office of each resort. But there’s a catch.

The “Ski Free” program offers free lift tickets to boarding pass holders as long as they head straight from the airport to the slopes and ski that same day, with the exception of one ski resort (Ski Marmot Basin).
