Trip Insurance from Alaska Airlines
In October 2019, a class-action lawsuit was filed against Alaska Airlines for allegedly misleadingly representing that travel insurance sold on its website is provided by a separate company, Allianz Global Assistance, without disclosing that the airline receives an allegedly illegal kickback for each sale. (Shattenkirk et al v. Alaska Airlines, Inc., Case No. 19-cv-1656, W. D. WA.)
