Booking Denver–Seattle with points starts with the cabin, then the program.

Taxes and fees on that seat run about $6, in line with the route's typical economy taxes. Business runs about 4 times the economy price. Flexible bank points can reach Delta SkyMiles; confirm the space first, since transfers can't be undone.
Delta SkyMiles is cheapest in economy at 7,100 points on a Delta nonstop. Qantas Frequent Flyer wins business class at 31,500 points on an Alaska Airlines nonstop. Alaska Atmos Rewards lists first class from 20,000 points, but the fare connects, which usually means first on one leg only; read every segment. Of the other four, American AAdvantage, Air France-KLM Flying Blue, and United MileagePlus are worth a look too.
Denver–Seattle draws nonstop award space from three alliances: Delta (SkyTeam), Alaska Airlines (oneworld), and United Airlines (Star Alliance). Partner programs in all three alliances can each book a nonstop. When nonstop space is gone, the cheaper connecting awards in the data route through Dallas/Fort Worth. The business-class floor is a oneworld partner award: Qantas Frequent Flyer prices the Alaska Airlines nonstop. Only four airlines show award space here, but seven programs sell their seats, so the program matters more than the carrier.
