Hawaiian Airlines MasterCard Review: 80,000 Bonus Miles + Two Free Checked Bags

The Hawaiian Airlines World Elite MasterCard is still going to be around after the Hawaiian/Alaska merger, although as of 10/1 Hawaiian miles will be converted to Atmos points. This card offers special perks on Hawaiian Airlines, which will still run as a separately-named airline after the merger. Here are the highlights.

The best offer available on this card is often the one they announced in-flight. The application asked for a six-digit promo code, but if you don’t have one from a flight, reportedly it is your flight number. I just tried “001234” and it worked fine, and I’ve even used “000000” when the application page accepted it and got the bonus.

80,000 bonus miles. 80,000 bonus HawaiianMiles after spending $2,500 on purchases within the first 90 days. One-Time 50% Off Companion Discount for roundtrip coach travel between Hawaii and North America on Hawaiian Airlines. $100 annual companion ticket discount each year for roundtrip travel between Hawaii and North America on Hawaiian Airlines. Two free checked bags (primary cardholder only) on Hawaiian Airlines or Alaska Airlines flights booked directly with this card. Now includes sports equipment. Worth up to $140 roundtrip. 3X miles for every $1 spent on purchases made directly from Hawaiian Airlines and Alaska Airlines. 2X miles per $1 spent on gas, dining, and grocery store purchases, and 1X mile per $1 spent on every other purchase. No foreign transaction fees. $99 annual fee.

Bottom line. The Hawaiian Airlines World Elite MasterCard offers a unique set of perks for regular customers of Hawaiian Airlines, including free checked bags and companion ticket discounts.

I don’t receive any commission for this offer. I will be adding this offer to my ongoing list of Top 10 Best Credit Card Bonus Offers.
