oneworld,
a global airline alliance, is offering air travellers the world over an enticing incentive to
encourage them to sample more of its international network – a bonus of up to 15,000 frequent flyer miles
or points that can be redeemed for flights across the grouping’s 575-destination map.
To participate,
travellers must already be a member or enroll as a new member of any one of the eight oneworld airlines’
frequent flyer programmes – American Airlines’ AAdvantage, the British Airways Executive Club, Qantas Frequent
Flyer, Cathay Pacific’s Marco Polo Club, Iberia Plus, LAN’s LANPASS, Finnair Plus or Aer Lingus’ Gold Circle Club.
Then
fly on at least three oneworld airlines, including the one with which you have registered as a
frequent flyer member, between 1 October and 30 November 2004, on eligible fares. These include a number of
economy/coach class fares, besides those for travel in First, Business or British Airways’ World Traveller Plus.
There are minor differences in the way the promotion operates in some member airlines’ frequent flyer schemes.
Some require participants to register for the bonus promotion first. The size of the bonus varies too between some
member airlines, because of the different structures of their individual frequent flyer schemes. For instance,
members of Iberia Plus will be eligible for a 1,200 point bonus.
oneworld Managing Partner John McCulloch said: “The bonus is just that – a bonus, in addition to the regular
rewards earned for each of those flights. It’s a way of highlighting to customers new and old that if their travels take
them beyond their regular airline’s schedules to other parts of oneworld’s unrivalled international map, they’ll
receive the same high level of care, service, support and frequent flyer privileges from all other carriers in our
group.” |
