I don't have experience with the AK card, but on my two BofA cards in the online account. You'll see a link "increase credit limit". It only appears when you're eligible for an increase. BofA is great about bumping limits. It will be a HP on TU.
They can do small auto CLI but if you are willing to take the HP, in my experience the increases have been HUGE! You didn't mention your scores, but if your TU is at least 720 or so I would not be too surprised to see $20k+.
I recently got a $1500 increase with them, so I'd say it's pretty good.
Marinersguy you could try, some have success with a quick double action where you hit the luv button get approved , then hit it again and get some more. Acouple good examples can be found if you search enough on Boa cli
OP, if your putting 3k a month on your card and paying it back before months end im willing to bet Boas gonna luv you and if you hit the button and request like 20 or 25k, you just may get it. Seems you have the kind of profile to support a huge limit and in my short time with Boa, if you are indeed eligble for the increase, they do happen to give nice increases with regards to your profile

Lol!! Thank you for encouraging me to do this!! I got bold!! I asked for 24,000, double my current. The computer thought about it for a few seconds and gave me a new line of 21,600.00!!! Not sure about the 600. Haha!! Now this is by biggest limit!! My freedom is at 17,000. Itd been paid off for some time. I don't really want that card but the CL is so valuable!!
Now I have another reason to love Alaska Airlines card even more!!!
Congrats! That is almost exactly my BankAmericard story. Starting line was also $12,000. Hit the button when it showed up about 3 months after opening the account, asked for $25,000 and it immediately gave me your same $21,600. I hate the odd $600 at the end, but it works out to be an exactly 80% credit line increase. I'll ask for $50k on it and $40k on my Travel Rewards next year before I move the limit from the BankAmericard to my substantially older Travel Rewards card - with counter-offers, I'm hoping for something in the $60k+ range total. I'm glad it worked out for you. Some people are very hesitant to take the HP, but BOA can be well worth it.
