Alaska Airlines is not a direct transfer partner of any major U.S. credit card rewards programs which leaves you with only a handful of hotel partners to choose from when it comes to earning additional miles outside of using Alaska Airlines credit cards.
Out of the available options, Marriott Bonvoy leads the pack as best transfer partner due to it's fantastic transfer ratio and how it easy it is to earn points in the program if you frequent Marriott brand hotels.
Marriott To Alaska Transfer Ratio
Marriott Bonvoy points can be transferred to Alaska MileagePlan at a 3:1 ratio. This means that every 3,000 points you transfer to Alaska MileagePlan will give you 1,000 Alaska miles.
On top of that, Marriott will throw in a bonus 15,000 points for every 60,000-block of points you transfer in a single transaction. When transferring to Alaska, this comes out to be an additional Alaska miles.
So all-in-all, every 60,000-block of Marriott Bonvoy points you transfer in a single transaction will give you 25,000 Alaska miles which is not a bad deal.
