Revenue from Contract with Customer [Abstract]  
REVENUE REVENUE
Ticket revenue is recorded as Passenger revenue, and represents the primary source of the Company's revenue. Also included in Passenger revenue is passenger ancillary revenue such as bag fees, on-board food and beverage, and certain revenue from the Atmos™ Rewards loyalty program. Loyalty program other revenue includes brand and marketing revenue from the Atmos Rewards co-branded credit cards and other partners, and certain interline loyalty program revenue, net of commissions. Cargo
and other revenue consists of freight and mail revenue, services provided to Amazon under the Air Transportation Services Agreement (ATSA), and to a lesser extent, other ancillary revenue products such as lounge membership and certain commissions.

In the first quarter of 2026, Alaska entered into a multi‑year extension and expanded partnership with its co-branded credit card bank partner, Bank of America, and amended its ATSA with Amazon. Performance obligations under the amended agreements are consistent with prior arrangements.
