This means you can buy your travel companion&#8217;s ticket for just the cost of taxes and fees, which are quite reasonable ($6 from SEA to ICN and $36 on the return flight). That&#8217;s a heck of a deal, essentially cutting the cost per person in half if you fly with a companion.<\/p>\n<p>As an added bonus, both travelers will earn <a href=\"https:\/\/thepointsguy.com\/airline\/how-to-earn-alaska-airlines-atmos-rewards-points\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Atmos Rewards points<\/a> and elite status points on their tickets.<\/p>\n<p>But the savings don&#8217;t end there. If you&#8217;d rather book with points, Alaska is offering main cabin tickets for only 20,000 Atmos points each way or 40,000 round-trip, plus the cost of taxes and fees.<\/p>\n<div class=\"EmailSignUp_container__qYzYT tw-border tw-border-gray-2\"><picture class=\"tw-flex tw-items-center tw-justify-center tw-opacity-0\"><source media=\"(max-width: 767px)\" srcset=\"\/images\/EmailSignUp\/daily-mob.svg\"\/><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/thepointsguy.com\/images\/EmailSignUp\/daily-dt.svg\"\/><\/picture>\n<div class=\"EmailSignUp_form__C8FWb\">\n<p>Reward your inbox with the TPG Daily newsletter<\/p>\n<p>Join over 700,000 readers for breaking news, in-depth guides and exclusive deals from TPG\u2019s experts<\/p>\n<form class=\"jsx-881693933 newsletter-form\">\n<div class=\"jsx-881693933 EmailCapture_confirmation__xasB3 EmailCapture_noCheckbox__n4fsN   \">\n<p class=\"tw-text-xs-regular !tw-text-gray-5 hover:!tw-text-gray-5 tw-max-w-lg\">By signing up, you will receive newsletters and promotional content and agree to our<!-- --> <a class=\"!tw-text-gray-5 hover:!tw-text-gray-5\" href=\"https:\/\/thepointsguy.com\/terms-of-use\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Terms of Use<\/a> <!-- -->and acknowledge the data practices in our<!-- --> <a class=\"!tw-text-gray-5 hover:!tw-text-gray-5\" href=\"https:\/\/thepointsguy.com\/privacy-policy\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Privacy Policy<\/a>.
