Alaska Airlines refuses to come between people and their wine, and oenophiles around the world are rejoicing.

According to the company’s blog, the ‘Wine Flies Free’ program allows Alaska Mileage Plan members departing from 29 airports in Washington, Oregon, Idaho and California wine regions to check up to 12 bottles of wine for free.

Even better news is that the program has just been expanded to a bunch of California airports, including:

• San Francisco
• San Jose
• Oakland
• LAX
• Burbank
• Fresno
• Monterey
• Ontario
• Orange County
• Palm Springs
• Sacramento
• San Diego
• Santa Barbara

Travel Tip: Many wineries in Washington and Oregon offer free tastings when you show your Alaska Airlines boarding pass.

Travelers have to register their Alaska Mileage Plan number in the reservation as they will need it when checking in the wine. After getting to the airport, travelers have to go to the ticket counter and alert the Alaska Airlines service agent that they are checking a case of wine. They will inspect the case, seal it and label it with FRAGILE stickers.
