Double Miles with Alaska Airlines 

On March 1, Alaska Airlines launched a unique offering for University of California (UC) travelers to earn double miles through December 1, 2024. Only tickets purchased via UC’s preferred agencies (BCD Travel, UCLA Travel) qualify for this promotion. This offer is being made to less than one percent of Alaska's entire business client base and UC is privileged to be part of the small trial group. Find out more.  

Uber for Business Renewed at UC 

University of California’s (UC) partnership with Uber has been reactivated and new users can link their personal accounts to UC today. The new, significant benefit for UC is Priority Pick-up, which provides our travelers priority over other riders, especially at peak/high demand times or areas (such as conventions or airports). Additionally, UC riders will have access to Business Comfort vehicles operated by top-rated driver partners (4.8 stars or higher) who have newer, mid-sized cars and access to premium support to help resolve any issues that may arise.
