For those who are lucky enough to stay married for 75 years and still have their wits about them, there is a great reward. The traditional gift for a 75th wedding anniversary is a diamond. The modern gift is gold. Either way I think that if you are able to love someone for that long you deserve more than just precious jewels. You deserve a medal of honor and a statue in Washington, DC.
As part of their celebration of being in business for 75 years, Alaska Airlines will not be handing out diamonds or gold along with your bag of peanuts. Instead, they are offering up some seriously discounted flights. What better way to celebrate than to fly from Orange County to Oakland for $35? Show them your love by going from Boise to Portland for $45. Let them know that you care by flying from Walla Walla to Seattle for $65.
With prices that cheap I am not sure they will be able to stay in business for another year, let alone long enough to celebrate their 80th anniversary. You are supposed to receive pearls if you make it that long. I suggest you receive sainthood instead.
Do you reckon that people in sunny, warm climates ever feel the urge to visit someplace that is cloudy and gray? As we search for travel deals each and every day we often come across trips to warm weather places, but never have we come across a deal that promotes how cloudy and miserable a destination is. Maybe someone could fill this market by specializing in trips to dreary weather locations.
There is no surer sign that spring is on the way than hearing the crack of the bat, the cheers from the crowd and the sight of saliva being expunged from players’ mouths. Baseball is the great American pastime. If you are a baseball purist, or simply someone who appreciates sitting out in the sun eating junk food and drinking overpriced watered down beer, going to spring training will be something you’ll cherish forever.
Here is a pretty sweet offer for kids both big and small. If you book a Disneyland vacation package with Alaska Airlines, 
Las Vegas might be located in Nevada but it clearly is part of some kind of alternative universe. The place has a Paris hotel, a hotel dedicated to New York, a taste of Venice and a whole lot of cheesiness. That is what makes Las Vegas, Las Vegas. Some people love it, others would rather spend a vacation as a prisoner of war. Very few people are completely indifferent about it.
When you live on the left coast of the United States it is pretty easy to feel overlooked. The media, political and business heart of the country is on the East Coast and the people living there sometimes think of the West Coast as being a distant planet full of alfalfa sprouts eating hippies who live in tree forts and survive on compost scrapings. That is a fairly accurate description of me, but the West Coast is as diverse and as interesting as any part of the US of A. You should check it out.
Here’s a chance for you to see one of the most unique sporting events in the United States and to explore Alaska for free. Alaska Airlines is running a contest where you can win round-trip air, four nights lodging in Anchorage, ground transportation, a whale watching tour, snow sports and an opportunity to see the famous Iditarod dog sled race, the ultimate in 
In a lot of parts of the United States, this is the time of year when people start thinking about heading south for the holidays or to escape the long, dark cold days of winter. Resorts in Mexico are a popular place to escape to for a number of reasons. They offer sand, sun and a bit of foreign culture all for prices that won’t break the bank. Plus, for many people, especially those on the west coast, Mexico is an easy flight away.
Let’s face it, dealing with mortgage companies and buying/selling a home can be a royal pain in the arse. After it is all said and done, you’ll want to take a vacation somewhere so you can forget about the next 30 years of debt in your life. That is why it is pretty darn brilliant for Alaska Airlines to team up with Lending Tree to offer gobs of frequent flier miles when you sell your home or take out a loan to purchase one. Here are
