Air China Launches PhoenixMiles Promotion

Travel News Asia Latest Travel News Podcasts Videos Tuesday, 6 July 2010

Air China’s PhoenixMiles frequent flyers can now accumulate additional mile awards when purchasing international or domestic flight tickets through Air China’s hotline (4008-986-999).

Domestic PhoenixMiles travelers who purchase designated cabin seats will be awarded 500 kilometers for every one-way flight or 1000 kilometers for every round-trip flight journey. When flying internationally, PhoenixMiles members will receive an additional 2 kilometers for every 10 RMB spent on international airfare.

An Air China free ticket can be traded for at least 8000 kilometers, and can be exchanged for even less when combined with other promotions. For example, for the Beijing-Shanghai route, the normal mileage award is 1088 kilometers. Now, passengers can enjoy an additional 500 kilometer award for each single trip, coming to a total of 1588 kilometers. Consequently, the mileage awards of 6 single trip flights or 3 round trip flights equate to a free ticket.

In order to utilize small amounts of mileage for frequent flyers, Air China has also launched an initiative to trade 1000 kilometers for RMB 30 air ticket coupons. PhoenixMiles travelers are able to trade only a limited number of coupons (1000) at Air China’s E-shop. With the coupons, members are able to use small mileage amounts and have more options in using their mileage.

Once coupons have been successfully traded, PhoenixMiles members will receive an Air China coding message within 3 working days. When purchasing tickets through Air China’s hotline (4008-986-999), they can use the coupon along with the coding message and their mobile phone number. PhoenixMiles members are only able to trade a maximum of 3 coupons each time and use one coupon for each ticket.

The coupon trades and additional mileage awards can be enjoyed at the same time. Since PhoenixMiles members are able to receive an additional 1000 kilometer award when purchasing a domestic round-trip ticket. They can then use the awarded 1000 kilometers to trade for a RMB 30 coupon to use on their next trip.

“With the rapid development of domestic airlines’ direct sales channels, the advantages are becoming more and more obvious, such as the associated convenience, efficiency and low cost,” said Zhou Enyong, General Manager of Air China’s marketing department. “Air China is committed to providing passengers with innovative and cutting-edge mileage services. We advise passengers to utilize Air China’s website when purchasing tickets to ensure that they receive the latest promotions.”

Air China, a Star Alliance member, has a fleet of 256 Airbus and Boeing aircraft.
