Heads up, mileage mavens! Korean Air is tweaking its partnership with Alaska Airlines starting January 1, 2026, and it's going to impact how you can use those hard-earned miles. This is a big deal for those of you who've been hoarding Korean Air miles to snag sweet Alaska Airlines flights. Specifically, after January 1, 2026, you'll no longer be able to redeem Korean Air miles for flights on Hawaiian Airlines. Also, the ability to redeem Korean Air miles for Alaska Airlines flights will be significantly restricted. This means less flexibility for using those miles for travel within North America and especially to Hawaii. So, what does this mean for you? If you have a stash of Korean Air miles and dreams of using them on Alaska or Hawaiian Airlines, start planning now! You've got until the end of 2025 to book those trips under the current, more generous rules. After that, you'll need to find other ways to use those Korean Air miles or explore alternative award options.
