HOW TO BOOK:
 
Go to www.alaskaair.com and book online. Select 0 adults / 1 child (2,3 children) in the search. The system will automatically check if the flights you selected are eligible for your child's age group (basicaly you can not book a flight you child does not qualify for). You will be offered to select the drop off and pick up guardians on the website as well as an option to print out and fill out the guardianship form that you will bring to the airport (this can be easily done at check in as well). Call Alaska if further assistance is needed 800-252-7522.
