There are a lot of good reasons to visit Starbucks this time of year. The holiday drinks were just released, the new cups are super festive, and warm drinks are a necessity in this chilly weather. Plus, we all need to treat ourselves once and a while. There's another reason you should stop by Starbucks, and it's certainly an unusual one. While Starbucks drinks often help you stay awake and stay warm, they can now help you board your flight faster! Alaska Airlines' Starbucks priority boarding is happening this week and drinking coffee has never been so fly. Get ready to go "cup, cup, and away" even faster with your favourite Starbucks drink. Alaska Airlines has partnered with Starbucks and is offering priority boarding to all passengers carrying a festive Starbucks cup. You can be one of the first passengers to board the plane just by sipping a Gingerbread Latte. The promotion is available on all Alaska Airlines flights until November 10, 2019. Lucky guests might also find a Starbucks treat awaiting them on their seats. All you need to do to get in the 'espresso lane' is stop by Starbucks before your flight and purchase any drink, hot or cold, in any holiday cup, including reusable ones. Be sure to listen to boarding announcements, as Starbucks customers will board directly after First Class. View this post on Instagram Cup, cup and away! Guests who make @Starbucks coffee a priority while traveling today (through 11/10), get priority boarding on any Alaska flight! Just listen to the boarding announcements and show your #Starbucks Holiday cup to be among the first to board! #iFlyAlaska A post shared by Alaska Airlines (@alaskaair) on Nov 7, 2019 at 7:01am PST If your drink was just too good and you finished it before your flight, don't worry. Hang on to the empty cup and you'll still get to board early. This year, Starbucks has welcomed back some delicious holiday favourites, including the Gingerbread Latte, Eggnog Latte, and Peppermint Mocha.
