SEATTLE, Aug. 16, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- For the second year in a row, Alaska Airlines Mileage Plan has received top honors in U.S. News & World Report's list of Best Airline Rewards Programs.

The Best Airline Rewards Programs rankings "identify the top frequent flier programs for everyday travelers using a methodology that weighs six components: ease of earning a free round-trip flight, added benefits, network coverage, flight volume, award flight availability and airline quality ratings."

"We're honored to be recognized as the No. 1 airline rewards program by U.S News & World Report," said Sangita Woerner, Alaska's vice president of marketing. "Unlike other programs, our members earn miles based on how far they fly on us – not just what they spend, and we offer a generous upgrade policy for elite members."

Alaska Airlines Mileage Plan members can earn miles on Alaska's 17 global partner airlines to more than 800 destinations around the world, as well as on car rentals, hotel stays, everyday purchases and with the Alaska Airlines Visa Signature card. Learn more at www.alaskaair.com/mileageplan.

Earlier this year, travelers ranked Alaska Airlines Mileage Plan highest in overall customer satisfaction for the third consecutive year in the J.D. Power 2016 Airline Loyalty/Rewards Program Satisfaction Report.
