PREAMBLE


	The purpose of this Alaska Air Group, Inc. 1995 Elected Officers 
Supplementary Retirement Plan is to provide certain elected officers of 
Alaska Air Group, Inc. (the "Company") and of certain affiliated companies 
with supplemental retirement benefits, the receipt of which is deferred 
until after the covered employee retires or terminates employment.

	This Plan shall constitute a plan which is unfunded and which is 
maintained primarily for the purpose of providing deferred compensation 
benefits for certain elected officers who constitute a select group of 
management or highly compensated employees within the meaning of Sections 
201(2), 301(a)(3), and 401(a)(1) of ERISA.

	The Plan set forth in the following pages is adopted by the Company, 
effective August 8, 1995.


SECTION 1

DEFINITIONS


Whenever capitalized in this Plan, the following capitalized terms shall 
have the meanings set forth below except where otherwise provided.  As used 
in the Plan, the masculine, feminine, and neuter genders shall each be 
deemed to include the other or others.

1.1	Actuarial Equivalence

	"Actuarial Equivalence" and its derivatives as the context requires 
(such as "Actuarially") means that the present value of two (2) 
payments or series of payments shall be of equal value when computed 
as follows:

(a)	For purposes of Sections 3.2  Normal Retirement Benefit, 4.1(c)  
Ten Year Certain and Life Annuity, 4.1(d)  Ten Year Certain 
Installments, and 5.3 Amount of Change of Control Benefit, 
Actuarial Equivalence shall be computed using the following: 

(i)	the annual interest rate on thirty (30) year Treasury 
securities as determined under Code Section 417 (which, as 
of the Effective Date, is the average annual yield on thirty 
(30) year Treasury Constant Maturities) for the November 
preceding the beginning of the Plan Year; and 

(ii)	the prevailing Commissioners' standard table described in 
Code Section 807(d)(5)(A), without regard to any other 
subparagraphs of Section 807(d)(5) used to determine 
reserves for group annuity contracts issued on the date as 
of which the present value is being determined (which as of 
the Effective Date is the 1983 Group Annuity Mortality 
Table, fifty percent (50%) male and fifty percent (50%) 
female).

(b)	For purposes of Section 4.1(b) Joint and Survivor Annuity, 
Actuarial Equivalence shall be computed using the following 
formula:

		1.0 - (.12)(W) - (.005)[(2.0)(X) - Y - Z],  
		but not more than  one (1),
  		where W equals the Joint and Survivor Annuity percentage;  
		X equals the Participant's age nearest birthday;
		Y equals the Participant's spouse's age nearest birthday; and
		Z equals the age at the Participant's Normal Retirement Date.

(c)	For purposes of Section 5.3(a) After Commencement of Benefits, 
the Actuarial Equivalent of the remaining benefits otherwise 
payable is determined as follows:

(i)	for a Participant whose benefit, as of the date of the 
Change of Control, is reduced by the Participant's Social 
Security Benefit, the Actuarial Equivalent of the remaining 
benefits otherwise payable is determined assuming that the 
Participant's Social Security Benefit does not increase 
after the Change of Control date;

(ii)	for a Participant whose benefit, as of the date of the 
Change of Control, is not reduced by a Social Security 
Benefit, the Actuarial Equivalent of the remaining benefits 
otherwise payable is determined assuming that the 
Participant begins receiving monthly Social Security 
Benefits on the later of the Change of Control date or the 
earliest date on which the Participant is eligible for a 
benefit from Social Security.  The amount of the monthly 
Social Security Benefit assumed to be received by the 
Participant is determined in accordance with the Social 
Security Act in effect as of the date of the Change of 
Control and is based on the following assumptions;

(1)	assuming the Participant's Wages exceed the taxable 
wage base provided under Section 230 of the Social 
Security Act for each Plan Year beginning with the Plan 
Year in which the Participant attained age twenty one 
(21) and ending with the last Plan Year ending before 
the Change of Control; and

(2)	assuming the Participant has no Wages during or after 
the Plan Year in which the Change of Control occurs; 
and

(3)	assuming the Social Security Benefits do not increase 
after the assumed Social Security Benefit beginning 
date.

(d)	For purposes of Section 5.3(b) Before Commencement of Benefits 
and After Termination and 5.3(c) Before Termination, the 
Actuarial Equivalent of the Normal Retirement Benefit is 
determined assuming that the Participant begins receiving monthly 
Social Security Benefits on the later of the Change of Control 
date or the earliest date on which the Participant is eligible 
for a benefit from Social Security.  The amount of the monthly 
Social Security Benefit assumed to be received by the Participant 
is determined in accordance with the Social Security Act in 
effect as of the date of the Change of Control, based on the 
following assumptions:

(i)	assuming the Participant's Wages exceed the taxable wage 
base provided under Section 230 of the Social Security Act 
for each Plan Year beginning with the Plan Year in which the 
Participant attained age twenty one (21) and ending with the 
last Plan Year ending before the Change of Control; and

(ii)	assuming the Participant has no Wages during or after the 
Plan Year in which the Change of Control occurs.


(iii)	For purposes of determining the Qualified Plan Benefit 
under Section 1.31, Actuarial Equivalence shall be computed 
using the definition of Actuarial Equivalence under the 
Qualified Plan, unless the form of payment elected under 
this Plan is not an option under the Qualified Plan, in 
which case Actuarial Equivalence under Section 1.1(a) above 
shall apply.

marriage), and (2) the estate of the Participant.

SECTION 4

PAYMENT FORMS


4.1	Forms of Payment

	The following forms of benefit payment are options under the Plan, 
subject to the conditions of Sections 4.2 and 4.3.

(a)	Whole Life Annuity

		"Whole Life Annuity" means monthly payments beginning on the 
Retirement Date and ending the first day of the month preceding 
the Participant's date of death.

(b)	Joint and Survivor Annuity

		"Joint and Survivor Annuity" means reduced monthly payments to a 
Participant from the Retirement Date to the first day of the 
month preceding the Participant's date of death, and if the 
Participant predeceases the Participant's Beneficiary, monthly 
payments to the Participant's Beneficiary equal to fifty percent 
(50%), sixty-six and two-thirds percent (66-2/3%), seventy-five 
percent (75%), or one hundred percent (100%) of the reduced 
amount payable to the Participant, beginning on the Participant's 
date of death and ending the first day of the month preceding the 
Beneficiary's date of death.  The Participant shall elect which 
percentage applies at the same time that the Participant elects a 
Joint and Survivor Annuity.  A Joint and Survivor Annuity shall 
be Actuarially Equivalent to the Participant's benefit payable in 
the form of a Whole Life Annuity. 

		If the Participant's Beneficiary dies after the Participant's 
benefit payments begin, the Participant's payments will be the 
same reduced amount as otherwise payable under the Joint and 
Survivor Annuity.  If the Participant's Beneficiary dies before 
the date as of which the Participant's benefit payments are to 
begin, any election of a form of benefit under this Section would 
be canceled automatically.  If the Participant dies before the 
date as of which the Participant's benefit payments are to begin, 
the Beneficiary shall not be entitled to receive any payments 
under this Section.  However, a spouse may be entitled to a death 
benefit under Section 6.

(c)	Ten Year Certain and Life Annuity

		"Ten Year Certain and Life Annuity" means reduced monthly 
payments from the Retirement Date to the first of the month 
preceding the Participant's death, but in no event will less than 
one hundred and twenty (120) equal monthly payments be made.  If 
the Participant dies before receiving one hundred and twenty 
(120) monthly payments, the remaining payments shall continue to 
be made to the Participant's Beneficiary.  A Ten Year Certain and 
Life Annuity shall be Actuarially Equivalent to the Participant's 
benefit payable in the form of a Whole Life Annuity.

(d)	Ten Year Certain Installments

		"Ten Year Certain Installments" means one hundred and twenty 
(120) equal monthly payments that are Actuarially Equivalent to 
the Participant's benefits payable as a Whole Life Annuity.  If 
the Participant dies before receiving one hundred and twenty 
(120) monthly payments, the remaining payments shall continue to 
be made to the Participant's Beneficiary.

4.2	Automatic Form of Payment

	Unless a Participant elects otherwise in accordance with Section 4.3, 
the Participant's benefit shall be paid as provided below:

(a)	Married Participant

shall receive his or her benefits in the form of a one hundred 
percent (100%) Joint and Survivor Annuity.

Date shall receive the Participant's benefits in the form of a 
Ten Year Certain and Life Annuity.

4.3	Payment Form Election

		Subject to approval of the Administrative Committee, a 
Participant may elect one of the forms of payment of benefits 
under Section 4.1 in lieu of the automatic payment form under 
Section 4.2 as long as the Participant's election is made at 
least one (1) year before the Participant's Termination.  Subject 
to approval of the Administrative Committee, a Participant may 
change a prior payment-form election, provided that the change is 
made at least one (1) year before the Participant's Termination.  
Once benefit payments commence, the payment form cannot be 
changed by the Participant or Beneficiary.

		Notwithstanding the preceding Section 4.3(a), subject to approval 
of the Administrative Committee, Participant may elect a payment 
form or change a prior payment-form election less than one (1) 
year before Termination, provided that the Participant 
demonstrates that the Participant has experienced or will 
experience an unanticipated change in life circumstances that is 
involuntary and with respect to which the Participant's requested 
payment form is consistent.  Examples of an unanticipated change 
in life circumstances that satisfy this Section 4.3 include (but 
are not limited to) involuntary Termination and death of a 
spouse.

(c)	Form and Manner of Election

		All payment-form elections shall be made in the form and manner 
prescribed by the Administrative Committee and shall be subject 
to approval of the Administrative Committee.


SECTION 5

written request for a review of the application in accordance 
with Subsection (d); and (4) has been notified in writing that

any action or failure to act by reason of membership on the

301(a)(3), and 401(a)(1) of ERISA.

10.3	Unfunded Nature of the Obligation

The obligation to pay benefits under the Plan shall at all times be an 
unfunded, unsecured obligation of the Employer.  The Employer is not

contributions and paying benefits under the Plan, or to otherwise set 
aside funds for the purpose of providing Plan benefits.

	In the event any benefit under this Plan shall be payable to a person 
who is under legal disability or is in any way incapacitated so as to

Committee may direct payment of such benefit to a duly appointed 
guardian, committee or other legal representative of such person, or 
in the absence of a guardian or legal representative, to a custodian 
for such person under a Uniform Gifts to Minors Act or to any relative

payment made in good faith pursuant to this provision shall fully

the Administrative Committee shall be held or construed to confer upon 
any person any right to be continued as an employee, or, upon 
dismissal, any right or interest in any account or fund other than as 
herein provided.  The Company and the other Employers expressly 
reserve the right to discharge any employee at any time with or 
without cause.
