Hong Kong is home base to Cathay Pacific Airlines, voted one of the world’s leading airlines. The modest beginning of Cathay’s air service began with flights between Bangkok, Singapore, Shanghai and Manila. Now the airline serves over 35 countries with 115 destinations. With such a surge in business with travel to so many worldwide destinations, it follows that Cathay Pacific would develop a loyalty program unmatched in the business. Cathay Pacific did just that over 38 years ago with "Marco Polo". Described as an elite loyalty program for frequent flier customers, the Marco Polo frequent flyer program was the first of its kind in Asia.
Today Cathay Pacific is celebrating its 10th year anniversary of its "basic" customer loyalty program Asia Miles. With almost 3.5 million members, 20 partner airlines to fly on, Asia Miles has a reward to suit just about anyone.
Linking an Asia Miles plan to a partnered bank card will increase member awards. The majority of miles to be earned are when travelers fly Cathay Pacific on a routine basis.
There are many other ways to earn miles: Members can earn miles with many other promotional partners when showing their membership card to different participating services and shops at over 400 partners; moving companies, restaurants, hotels, and floral companies to name a few.
With Asia Miles a bonus of 25% is credited when business class is purchased and 50% bonus is credited with the purchase of a first class fare. A bonus that makes Asia Miles a convenient loyalty plan is that it allows mixed airline awards and mile plus cash redemptions. Another perk of Asia Miles is that its reward chart is based on OneWorld, a chart subscribed to by dozens of other participating carriers. What this means is that when other carriers offer lower point values to redeem for flights, Cathay Pacific will honor the same value as its own making what could normally be an extremely expensive trip a truly economical one. |
