Alaska Airlines Discount... 10% on Holiday Travel if You're Gay (full rate if you're straight)
Alaska Airlines via Fat Wallet.com ^

Posted on 12/02/2007 12:39:39 PM PST by bshomoic

If you're straight you pay full rate.

But if you're gay they take 10% away.

To receive this discount just enter Discount Code EC06607

Other special discount code for gays can be found here.

Of course this is against federal law but hey, it's politically correct.

Wow. But Alaska Airlines won’t be charged with a ‘hate crime’ because this is too PC.

Bizarre.

“Taking diversity to the sky”. That leaves so much room for humor. Can you imagine the YouTube videos?

Right! Remember, the Internet NEVER forgets. And just imagine the junk mail you’ll eventually get when they sell your information. You wouldn’t get me to touch that discount number for a 100% discount.

This has to be a hoax. Wouldn’t this open the door for a law suit?

Well that sounds fair. Nominally, whenever I’m flying other passengers are grumpy and tired, and I’m flight attendents get tired of it. But if more passengers were to be feeling gay and display their feelings the flight would be more enjoyable, and everyone would certainly most have a gay old time flying.

“So tell them you are gay. Save 10%.”

Do you think they ask you to prove it?

No kidding. My sister-in-law is a realtor, and she once had a house to sell that she thought would appeal to gay buyers, so she placed a simple, completely professional real estate classified ad in the local gay-oriented news weekly. A few days later, she started receiving so much gay porn spam in her mailbox, she had to change her email address to escape it.

Watch out. They might make you prove it. LOL.

Good point. It might get interesting for some upper management people when the free magazines and special cruise offers start showing up at the office about mid march.

The catch is that they will give the discount to anyone, just so you are going to those special events listed for LBTG people. They would say that a normal (:straight”) person is welcome to go, too.

It does not make me interested in flying that airline, however.

Please don’t lie or distort in your posts, it makes us all look bad and perpetuates the Wiki stereotype of a FReeper. The 10% discount to NYC, code EC06607 is available to everyone and linked to from several locations on the Alaska Air website. You just happened to link to from the gay travel page. Don’t make false claims that straight people are expected to pay full price when it’s obviously untrue.

Now if you want to question why Alaska Air feels the need to have a gay travel page, have at it. I can’t figure that bit out myself. However, don’t make things appear worse than they are solely for effect.

Well I guess a lot of interior decorators, hair stylists and Broadway chorus boys are going to be flying with Alaska Airlines.

And how does one suppose the airline will be verifying the sexual proclivities of their customers?

For 10% off airfare, I can be as gay as the day is long. Until such time as verifiable proof is required.
At that point, the only thing coming out of my pants will be my wallet.
