So tell them you are gay. Save 10%.

[jonsie]

Can’t wait to read the responses.

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?

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

[Santa Fe_Conservative]

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.

I guess Sen. Craig is going to have a tough time with this one. “is it worth saving a few bucks and do they fly through Minneapolis.”

“Where’s the dress” ??

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.

[Bloody Sam Roberts]

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.

Gay-for-a-Day!

[randog]

So, does the “No Smoking (Pole)” restriction still apply?

[I see my hands]

Within the confines of his fastidious bachelor igloo..

DISCRIMINATION.

[mountainbunny]

Anyone can use the code. They are offering specials for specific groups but are not preventing anyone from using the code. This is a standard advertising/promotion practice and is not against the law.

They have done the exact same thing with religious groups in the past: http://www.caci.org/convention/2008/alaska_airdeals.html

Did you complain about it when it was Catholics and not gays getting special treatment?

There are a lot of things to be upset about. This is not one of those things.

[mylife]

You know what they call lesbians in Alaska?

Klondykes

[Tzimisce]

...can you say “discrimination”?

[Calpernia]

I would hate to see what the security screening process is for this.

[Leftism is Mentally Deranged]

Totally illegal and unconstitutional. But none of the lawmakers care! Normal people don’t threaten them with loss of their jobs.
