Use Google Flights to track your flight and find cheaper alternatives
This strategy applies to almost any flight, regardless of airline. Doing your research and being flexible with your travel dates are two of the simplest ways to save money.
Google Flights is an excellent resource for finding low-cost Alaska Airlines flights. The "Track prices" and "Date grid" characteristics are among the most helpful.
Toggle "Track prices" on (by sliding it to the right), and you'll receive e-mail updates whenever the price of your trip changes.
Google Flights' "Date grid" feature will show you if there is a cheaper flight within a few days, as well as a more detailed account of prices on other days of travel.
