Bonus miles - this concept appeared and is used in the programs of rewarding passengers, which were invented and introduced into circulation by the airline. These miles are credited to those passengers who apply for a frequent flyer card. This card records the receipt of bonus miles for flights, for using credit cards of certain banks, for purchases in certain stores, and the like.
It is necessary
- - a document proving your identity;
- - frequent flyer card;
- - a bank card of the bank that is recommended to you by the airline that issued your frequent flyer card.
Instructions
Step 1
If you have a desire to become a member of such a bonus program and enjoy all the benefits that can be obtained thanks to it, choose the airline with which, according to your calculations, you will have to deal most often. At the office of this company, you will receive a special application form and fill it out (if you have a computer, you can register online on the website of the selected airline).
Step 2
In order for each of your flights to be counted for the accrual of bonus miles, be sure to enter your program member number when booking or when issuing a ticket. Even if you remember this already during registration, it will not be too late. It is technically possible to add your program member number to the general list before the flight starts.
Step 3
Each airline has its own set of points, upon completion of which you will be credited with bonus miles. Therefore, study the form very carefully - the application you fill out and the airline's handouts. There may even be a subscription to certain newspapers and magazines, access to the services of certain telecom operators, purchase of insurance policies from recommended insurance companies - and so on.
Step 4
The bonus miles you have accumulated have a specific expiration date, so spend them wisely. For these miles - depending on their number - buy a free award ticket, upgrade the class of an already purchased ticket, apply for services to the partners of this airline - hotel chains, car rental companies and banks that issue payment cards.
Step 5
For information on the exact number of award miles on your frequent flyer card, contact the airline from which you received the card.
