Skywards Launches New Skysurfers Club For Younger Flyers

7 June 2002

Skywards has launched a new club for its younger travellers that promises to be as much fun on the ground and on the web as in the air.

Skysurfers is the new frequent flyer programme for Emirates and SriLankan Airlines customers aged up to 16 years. Young Skywards members have already been invited to join Skysurfers, which is tailored to their preferences and interests.

The young “Skysurfers” receive the same benefits as members of Skywards. This includes earning Skywards Miles with Emirates, SriLankan and its partner  airlines, and hotels worldwide. On joining, the new members will receive their very own membership card, luggage tags for identification and a personal flight log to record their journeys.

They can then redeem their Miles for free flights to hundreds of destinations, for trips to the Wild Wadi Water Park in Dubai or desert safaris and sand-skiing trips  with Arabian Adventures. They can also use their Miles for books, toys, watches and pens from partner stores such as McGrudy’s and Rivoli.

Brian LaBelle, Skywards’ General Manager, said: “Skysurfers was launched to provide our younger members with rewards and news that are relevant to their interests. By doing so, we look forward to building a relationship with our  future customers.”

A fabulous launch party for over one hundred Skysurfers at the Emirates Aviation College gave the new members a glimpse of the exciting world of Emirates’ pilots,  cabin crew members and engineers. They got the chance to see the world-class training facilities and two lucky Skysurfers won a ride in the Full Flight Simulator.

They can also check out the current movies available on Emirates, and read reviews of the Movie of the Month in the Monthly Diary, which currently is blockbuster movie: Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone. 

The Fun Zone features a travel quiz to test Skysurfers’ knowledge of faraway places, e-cards that they can send out, a Skysurfers screensaver with which they can personalise their PC and a great choice of games to play.
