Elite status is not modelled. It is a separate eligibility system and is kept out of this list rather than blended into it.
A worked example
Say two people fly Alaska Airlines on Saver with one checked bag each, no card benefit. PackRight estimates $35 per bag, so $70 for the pair, one way. This is an example of how the calculator works, not a price guarantee.
