Alaskas Airlines has some of the best airline miles in the game, and they’re joining One World on 3/31/21. There is a 65k offer that requires more spend over a longer timeframe, and I also believe it is also publicly available. I don’t have an affiliate link or a referral link for this card, but if you’re interested in a getting a fat stack of Alaska miles, this link should take you to more details.
