Airline Rewards Programs

Category

Airline rewards programs are designed to incentivize airline loyalty. Usually these loyalty programs involve collecting airline miles or points and earning elite status with the airline. Miles can be collected by flying with a specific airline, signing up for a credit card reward program, or through direct purchases from certain merchants. Elite status allows customers to unlock perks such as additional baggage allowance, complimentary upgrades, and exclusive lounges access. While rewards programs can benefit customers who often travel for work or leisure, they are particularly useful for frequent flyers who want to get something extra out of their airline experience. Ultimately these rewards programs give customers greater flexibility and more value long-term if they fly often enough with a specific airline or airline alliance.
