Norwegian Reward members who fly at least 20 round trips (40 one way flights) and have at least 3000 CashPoints earned on flight tickets by 31 December 2017 will receive a free return flight to any one of Norwegian’s 13 long-haul destinations from Gatwick.  Flights are redeemable in January 2018 with a valid travel period throughout the entire year of 2018.*

The loyalty programme is also offering members who fly at least 10 round trips (20 one way flights) on flexible tickets in 2017 a free upgrade to Premium on any long-haul route.

Etihad Guest Loyalty Programme Reaches 5 Million Milestone

ETIHAD Guest, the loyalty programme of Etihad Airways, has celebrated reaching five million members by gifting 500,000 Miles and an upgrade to Gold status to the milestone member, Rashid Al Shehhi.

Mr Al Shehhi joined Etihad Guest while applying for an ADIB credit card. Guests can earn miles on everyday spending through their ADIB Etihad Guest cards and use their points to purchase flights, upgrades and multiple items from the online Reward Shop.

“I am really looking forward to spending the miles on flights and upgrades, and seeing where I can travel to over the next few months,” he said. “It was a great surprise to be told that I’d been picked out as the five millionth member because I fly with the airline all the time so to be rewarded in this way will help me continue my travels around the world.”

Mr Al Shehhi added that he would also donate some Etihad Guest Miles to relief efforts in Somalia, in line with the spirit of the Holy month of Ramadan and in support of the UAE’s Year of Giving initiative.

easyJet to launch loyalty scheme

EASYJET is to introduce a recognition scheme – Flight Club – for its most frequent travellers, the aim being to reward loyalty and provide flexibility for frequent flyers. 

The scheme will be rolled out across easyJet’s European network from early next year, when passengers will be invited to join Flight Club. The invitation will go to passengers who have booked and flown 20 or more flights, or who have recorded a specified annual spend with easyJet.

Carolyn McCall, CEO of easyJet, says: ‘Flight Club will reward our most loyal, frequent flyers – most of whom will fly with us more than 20 times a year. It isn’t like a traditional airline reward programme, because our customers have told us that those schemes can be a source of frustration. This is a loyalty scheme with a difference, because it gives passengers benefits they really value and can access immediately.’

Flight Club benefits will include free flight changes, free name changes, a lower price promise, previews of new routes, and special offers.
