Why You Might Want This Card

Great Card... If You Fly Alaskan

Normally, you have to contrive some backdoor, double-card point redemption for a companion pass. Not so with this card. You'll get a companion pass every anniversary. All you pay are taxes and fees for your companion. Plus get a free checked bag for you and 6 of your friends whenever you fly Alaskan. The sign-up bonus is 40,000 miles after spending $2,000 in the first 90 days. And you'll earn 3x miles for every dollar spent on Alaskan Airlines purchases.

This business card also helps you manage what's being done with your money, giving you full access to setting employee spending limits, cash flow management tools, and protection against unauthorized employee charges.

If you travel Alaskan Air frequently, you definitely want to consider this card. People on the East Coast might not target this card -- although with its affiliate being Iceland Air, that may be changing soon. The companion pass is hands down a huge benefit, plus the sign-up bonus is easy to achieve. Alaskan Air does have limits, however. And if you don't like being tied down to specific airlines -- or if you live in a smaller city that doesn't support Alaskan's partners -- you might want to shop around for something with broader rewards.

Bottom Line

Application Rules

This business card will not show on your personal credit report, so it won't count against your 5/24 status

You'll be declined for Alaska Airlines and B of A Premium Rewards cards if you have opened or CLOSED that card in the previous 24 months

Card approval not subject to 5-personal-cards-in-24-months rule

What to Know Before Canceling

This card won't be at the top of anyone's list, but once you are in the hobby a while, it might be a good card to add when they have a special offer. Especially since it won't count towards your 5/24 total.
